Lies, Damned Lies

Quote:
Remember when the president said, “If you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor”?...

Remember the Obama administration’s promise that Obamacare would cut a typical family’s premium “by up to $2500 a year”?....

Remember the promise that Obamacare would “strengthen small businesses”?...
Read on for the rest of the "remember whens".

What a friggin disaster. Everything they warned about is coming to fruition.

Quote:
Six months ago, President Obama, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi rammed Obamacare down the throats of an unwilling American public. Half a year removed from the unprecedented legislative chicanery and backroom dealing that characterized the bill's passage, we know much more about the bill than we did then.
What we know was predicted, expected.

....and yet we still have people who don't see all of his many failures. Even with many in his own party turning against him and his failed, unpopular policies, we have people defending him. The're gonna ride that dead horse all the way, no matter how foolish it makes them look..
The democrats in Washington see him as poison, why do the loons in CD think he has any redeeming value...?

No substance?

What about all the "remember whens" that were flat out LIES?

Just the first 3 - keeping your plan - NO, lowering premiums - NO, helping small business - NO. The bill he signed accomplishes NONE of the goals he laid out initially.

Can you refute just those 3?

Btw, did you bother to read those two pieces?

He did not lie on you could keep your current coverage if you wanted it;just didn't say the last part ;if you can afford it.My self insured policy is goig up in my cost by 18.9% thsi year because of mandates in the coverage. That is with mnay changes on coverage to future retire that retire befor 65. New hires will have to pay 100% if they retire before 65.Bascailly it elimnates the helthcare board that includes employees at my company that can make chaneges to keep the premium cost lower for our group bascailly. that has driven prices much high and other cuts such as new hiores is the only place they can cut by what they will pay as a share.

You wont find a dem using this to run on, they are scared to even mention it knowing that the huge majority did not want it to pass and that the majority would repeal it in a heartbeat.

Dems are a bunch of back door corrupt thieves.

Your insurance rates have been going up by double digits every year for the past 10 years. Obama had nothing to do with it. Corporate greed and relaxation of government controls under Bush has everything to do with it!
