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.”

Clinton still being the SAME old PHONY BULL$HIT artist he's ALWAYS been.

Anyone who hasn't seen through him by now is either a very LOW INFORMATION VOTER or a CRIMINAL ACCOMPLICE.

Bill Clinton is using Joseph Goebbels propaganda techniques. He should be ashamed.

These frauds always do the same thing. Whether it be a president, a former president, a senator or a talking head. If they are shown a fact they simply respond “That’s not true” and that’s that.

Then when I think of this fraud called the Clinton Global Initiative all I can think of is how many billions are being laundered through.

He is unless you want Hillary’s Benghazi debacle to come to light. It’s all one incentive after another.

They trade your power and money for their gain.

I’m still having a real problem understanding why the ACA is so great for the masses but not the Jackwagon’s that wrote and passed it into law, or their staff, the Royal Family or any of the other exempts. What a Crock ‘O $hit!

Clear the Sewer in 2014 and 2016.

A simple question to Mr. Clinton: Why should anyone believe anything you say?
