Obama Misrepresents Healthcare Cost Savings in Speech Monday

Conservative Examiner ^ | 3/9/2010 | Anthony G. Martin

[Welshman007]

In a display of gross misrepresentation of the supposed 'savings' the ObamaCare plan would provide for medical care in this country, Barack Obama claimed in a speech in Pennsylvania on Monday that his healthcare plan would save the system nearly $1 trillion dollars over a ten-year period.

He even quoted the report of the Congressional Budget Office as the basis for his assertion.

The problem is that the Congressional Budget Office report on the present proposal for healthcare reform says the exact opposite. As widely reported on Monday, the CBO estimates that ObamaCare and the other components of the Obama economic plan will add $9.7 trillion dollars to the national debt.

"In a display of gross misrepresentation of the supposed 'savings' the ObamaCare plan would provide for medical care in this country, Barack Obama claimed in a speech in Pennsylvania on Monday that his healthcare plan would save the system nearly $1 trillion dollars over a ten-year period."

He is just a lying little turd. What government program ever came under budget and didn't break the bank?

Only a total idiot or a Liberal would believe anything President BigLie says.

zero is not half black. His skin is the color it is because he’s so full of BS it’s seeped through his capillaries.

[political1]

This is getting bad for the Democratic party.

"Obama Habitually, Incessantly, LIED about Healthcare Cost Savings in Speech Monday" ...there fixed it. So what else is new? All this Marxist/communist/socialist can do is lie because if he tells the truth about what he and the democRATS are going to do, people would tar and feather all of them and run them all out of town on a rail. If they succeed in passing this wicked. "deathcare" control-the-masses, bill that is probably exactly what will happen to them.

They have "awoken a sleeping giant (the AMERICAN people) and filled them with a terrible resolve."

The only real news will be when this pathological liar actually slips and tells the truth. Short of that I don’t believe a word that comes out of his mouth.

[dforest]

Every time he parts his purple lips a new or used up lie comes out.

You can’t even ask yourself if he is evil, or just stupid anymore, he is both.

“Code Red” - House Target List on Health Care
The National Republican Congressional Committee has published a target list on health care. In addition to continuing to contact the five Tennessee Democrat Congressmen, you can go http://www.votervoice.net/link/clickthrough/ext/94697.aspx to contact some of these targets. Much of the talk following Obama’s announcement has focused on how to defeat this second bill through reconciliation, but that is misleading because the first step to defeating Obamacare is not by concentrating on defeating the “fixer” bill but by defeating the Senate bill in the House when it goes to the floor for an up-or-down vote on Thursday, March 18th.
