Axelrod: ‘Most People’ Will Be Able to Keep Their Plans Under Obamacare
National Review Online ^ | October 28, 2013 | Andrew Johnson

Posted on 10/28/2013 7:46:29 AM PDT by Cheerio

David Axelrod offered a slightly different promise about Obamacare than has the president: While that president has repeatedly said, “If you like your plan, you can keep it,” Axelrod on Monday told MSNBC that “most” will be able to stick with their plan.

I have watched the Won proclaim over and over on the YouTube video that "YOU" will be able to keep your health insurance and your doctor"
Nowhere did the Won say anything about "MOST OF YOU".

Reminds me of his "No new tax" pledge - when a Bush did that he lost reelection.

Might not even be close to most. At the rate peoples current plans are being discontinued because of mandates in coverage, I don’t see where most people are not going to be affectd.

Most people have health insurance their employer and the plans will not change much, so this is true what he says.

But this is not what obamma said.

How sweet it would be to tie, in the minds of the Low Information Voter, the Democrats who voted for Nationalizing 1/6 th of the US Economy to this Democrat Cash Cow, Mandatory Insurance Tax Law!

The Leftstream Media currently controls the minds of the Low Information Voter by controlling the powerful COURT OF PUBLIC OPINION POLLING CORPORATION, commonly known as COP-O-PC, pronounced “Cop O’PC.”

Right now Obama can do anything that he wants to do because of the “White Guilt” of the Leftstream Media, and a “White Guilt” mentality of jelly-spined Congressional Democrat’s Republicans.

Thus, all of the focus is directed to the incompetence of the staff that Obama has hired to protect him from knowing anything about the signature Law that he is so proud of.

It is the perfect “I know nothing” do-loop designed for gullible, jelly-spined, Red Ink, Congressional, Democrat’s Republicans such as Susan Collins, McCain, Graham, McConnell, Cornyn, Boehner, Cantor, Ryan, and New York’s Peter King.

Link Democrats to Obama’care,’ and maybe the Low Information voter will remember that it was the Democrats that wrote it, voted for it, and then it was Democrat Reid shut down the US Federal Government in 2013 to keep it from being defunded by cowardly, Cave-In, Congressional RINOs.

The Democrats have wanted this ultimate-control, Marxist Law for nearly 100 years, and now that the Democrats have rammed it down our throats we Conservatives must see to it that the Democrats are clearly held responsible for the great harm that this failed Law has already done to America.

BTW, “If you like the Marxist Mandatory Insurance Tax Law called “Obamacare,” then you should vote for Democrat Federal politicians in 2014.”

"It's a great plan. You'll love it. Nothing to worry about."



Who wouldn't jump at an offer from uber-creepy David Axelrod.

Tom Coburn made Axelrod look like a fool this morning. I watched the whole thing. Everything lie Axelrod told Coburn came back on him with the truth.I enjoyed watching it!

Seems most policies impacted are individual policies and the ubber cheap things small businesses offer...anybody know on a percentage basis how much those comprise the total number of policies out there?

See how a gutter dweller like this does it? Use the word most and when it comes to light that many can’t keep their insurance then you say, “Sorry, you’re not part of the most.”

Ready for the new talking point about to happen?

You can keep your own plan because

"The new plan covers everything your old plan does, and more"

So, the new is better than the old and there's no difference in coverage, IE, same plan.
Obama was trying to argue this point without a teleprompter and failed miserably. The MSM
RATs are scrambling to get this new Talking point out, and figuring out the best way to
word it for the Obama fluffers. What a spin.

Not the people at Walgreens (they eliminated their healthcare), not the spouses at UPS, and not the people at UPS who have been reduced to under 30 hours.

And that’s just three that I know of personally.

There’s nothing about Axelrod’s statement that is true.

People with employer based insurance coverage are finding out that the plans they had are changing under the rules for coverage that are being imposed by obamacare. The coverage, the deductible, the premiums - all are subject to change - or that health coverage is being dropped altogether by their employer.

But yes, the worst of all the lies are Obama’s exact words that “if you like your plan, you can keep it”.

Well, well..........what will people do who have United Health Care in CT?......UHC dumped 2,500 doctors from their service last month.

That’s a LOT of docs, in a small state.....and many practices are not taking on new patients, especially if you are on Medicare.

Hope old folks like bran muffins.

He is a liar. As insurance companies are driven out of the market by ObamaCare the liar will claim, “Well, of those that still have insurance companies in business, they’ll get to keep it.”

Never trust a liberal; they are just communists and we all know communists are lying thieves.

Er, uh correction. Where I work, our plan has already changed. More cost to the employee, less coverage.

And this was in before the mandate. What happens when the employer mandate hits? It would still be cheaper for my employer to drop coverage for all employees all together versus pay the fine. I am very concerned about next year. There is always the risk of being laid off, too.

And employer doesn't cover spouse and dependents. So, they have their own, individual plans. I am crossing my fingers that their plan won't be dropped. Then we will be screwed and will be forced to buy Obamacare.
