Would you hire this guy?

Post by Tunnelcat »

Guess who the GOP-led House Committee on Energy and Commerce wants to consult with about any supposed vulnerabilities with the software running Obamacare?

This guy. :roll:

The very same guy who bangs 17 year-olds and brags about it, snorts coke and uses LSD like candy and is an ex-fugitive on the run. Suuuuuuuuuuuure. What the hell are they thinking?

You believe everything you see in youtube videos ? :P

One of the comments says:
The only reason I can see that they would pick him is because he has been vocally opposed to Obamacare.
Also, his image (you so eagerly pointed out) is great for fuelling some flames...

The whole thing reeks of a flame bait. Congratulations, you have been used. :huh:

BTW, didn't know he lives in Portland now.

No, he was definitely asked. It's not flame bait, just a curiosity. I see no problem with the GOP asking a specialist about the security of the ACA's website. God knows there's something going on there. But Mcafee? Come on. There must be a whole slew of other security specialists in the field than HIM. He's a nutcase.

And speaking of security, there was mention of this innocuous little bit of source code that says; you give away all your rights to privacy, that users can't see by the way, during the hearings today. No one knows who inserted that little bit of code either....yet.

From what Mcafee said in his interview with Alex Jones, the request was kind of ridiculous. Who deals with something so complicated over the phone? He said he was convinced they weren't serious, and probably just wanted to use his name to say they were hard at work to resolve the problem.

I should have known better. If Fox News interviewed him in all seriousness, it was nonsense to begin with. :roll:

I wouldn't party with someone who looks like he'd enjoy playing Russian Roulette with you. :P
