Which means all of those times Obama said he wasn’t told about the problems facing HealthCare.gov were a lie (I know, shocker).

Via Politico:

President Obama was briefed earlier this year on a consulting firm’s report raising some red flags about HealthCare.gov, and was aware of his administration’s efforts to respond to those concerns, the White House said Tuesday.

“The president received regular briefings on various aspects of implementing the [Affordable Care Act], including the recommendations from this review and the steps that CMS, HHS and others had taken to address those recommendations,” press secretary Jay Carney said of a McKinsey report that House Republicans provided to news outlets including POLITICO on Monday.

Just last week Obama was declaring he was never told about the problems plaguing the website prior to launch:

PRESIDENT OBAMA: OK. On the website, I was not informed directly that the website would not be working as — the way it was supposed to. Has I been informed, I wouldn’t be going out saying, boy, this is going to be great. You know, I’m accused of a lot of things, but I don’t think I’m stupid enough to go around saying, this is going to be like shopping on Amazon or Travelocity, a week before the website opens, if I thought that it wasn’t going to work.

So, clearly, we and I did not have enough awareness about the problems in the website. Even a week into it, the thinking was that these were some glitches that would be fixed with patches, as opposed to some broader systemic problems that took much longer to fix and we’re still working on them.

So you know, that doesn’t excuse the fact that they just don’t work, but I think it’s fair to say, no, Major, we — we would not have rolled out something knowing very well that it wasn’t going to work the way it was supposed to, given all the scrutiny that we knew was going to be on — on the website.
