At issue: if you just got out of prison after serving a stint for identity theft, would that prevent you from getting a job as an Obamacare “navigator?”

Absolutely right?

Well…

The victim of Scalise’s inquisition is one Gary Cohen, and here’s his title…

Mr. Gary Cohen
Director
Center for Consumer Information and Insurance Oversight
Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services
U.S. Department of Health and Human Services

He can’t answer whether they’re hiring identity thieves as Obamacare navigators.

Before you scoff at that, let’s not forget that the federal government’s vetting process resulted in security clearances for Bradley Manning, Edward Snowden, Nidal Hasan and Aaron Alexis. In other words, you can just about guarantee that the ranks of Obamacare navigators will include every stripe of degenerate, criminal, creep and rascal imaginable.
