A second state Obamacare exchange is under federal investigation in as many weeks.

The inspector general’s office for the Department of Health and Human Services reportedly told Maryland Republican Rep. Andy Harris that it will proceed with an investigation into how Maryland’s Obamacare exchange spent copious amounts of federal grant money in the face of its failing exchange.

Oregon’s Obamacare exchange will also be investigated by the General Accountability Office after a separate request from House Republicans.

Harris requested the investigation last month along with Georgia Republican Rep. Jack Kingston. Both congressmen sit on a House Appropriations subcommittee which oversees HHS.

“Maryland officials ignored early warning signs and chose to waste and abuse federal taxpayer money by opening up what they knew was a flawed exchange to the public,” Harris said in a statement Monday.

    Surprise surprise – - The investigations will find no wrong doing because liberals always make sure that no one is accountable.

    The demonrats are no longer even trying to hide their corruption.

    They understand that the republicrats will do NOTHING to stop our descent into the maelstrom.

    As Hercules has a prior commitment, it falls to “We, the People of the United States” to correct wrongs, punish the guilty, and clean the Augean Stables of DC.

    How much transparency do folks need?
    Nationalizing part of the economy equals waste, fraud and abuse. With a hand in every citizen’s pocket, who are we to tell them no?

    The GAO? The same GAO picced in a bathtub drinking wine and so full of themselves they knew they could get away with it? Like the IRS? Great pep talk there.
