Clinton joins president to warn about GOP’s ‘misinformation’ on Obamacare

While a prime opponent of Obamacare was trying to kill the law in the Senate, President Obama promoted the health care law Tuesday with former President Bill Clinton and warned of Republicans spreading “misinformation.”

“There’s been billions of dollars spent making people scared and worried about this stuff,” Mr. Obama said at a forum at the Clinton Global Initiative in New York City. “Those [who] have opposed the idea of universal health care in the first place and have fought this thing tooth and nail have been trying to scare and discourage people from getting a good deal.”

He urged the audience to “take a look at it, and you will discover that this is a good deal for you.”

For the second time in a month, the president sought the help of Mr. Clinton to explain the merits of Obamacare ahead of Tuesday’s start of open enrollment for health insurance on various “exchanges” being set up in each state.

Mr. Clinton tried to refute the complaint that the law is leading to more part-time jobs as larger employers seek to dodge the requirement of providing insurance to full-time employees or paying a fine.

“I’ll save the president some time and energy on this: So far, that’s not true,” Mr. Clinton said. “The overwhelming number of people who have been hired coming out of this recession have been hired at lower wages, but they have been full-time employees. There has not been an increase in the percentage of our employment in part-time work.”

Bill Clinton can still lie convincingly with a smile on his face.

Good. At least some things are reliable.

Apparently they think that if you put to liars together telling the same lie it will cancel itself out like a double negative. Sadly there are a lot of sheep in the U.S. that will accept this. I use the term sheep to be polite and apologize to any actual sheep insulated.

After all the scandals broke regarding Clinton’s sordid behavior with women galore, and cheating on his wife and daughter, it never ceased to amaze me how many great looking women would still go weak-kneed at the sight of him.

One such woman is frozen in my mind forever, stars in her eyes gazing up at him as he walked by.

The picture of her, actually made me very sad.

What is it with some women anyway?

Clown Prince nobama and Liar-in-Chief klintoon spew lies continuously. They make a perfect pair of reprobate losers. Those who support these freaks of nature must be desperate degenerate subhuman flotsom.
