It’s just one tweet, but the sheer mendacity requires its own post. With the media finally in “now it can be told” mode since Obamacare passed and President Obama was reelected, pretty much everyone is admitting what all of us knew four years ago— that no, not everyone would be able to keep their plans if they liked their plans. And, yes, the Obama administration knew it just as sure as its critics did.
It was a lie and an obvious one, but the administration, much of the media, and Obamacare supporters happily acted as if it were true and happily smeared those who suggested otherwise. Tonight, the president’s right-hand woman tries the lie again, even as it’s demonstrably unraveling before the nation’s eyes.

FACT: Nothing in #Obamacare forces people out of their health plans. No change is required unless insurance companies change existing plans.

Let’s try to walk through this inanity. There’s nothing in Obamacare that forces people out of their health plans. Instead, Jarrett asserts, insurance companies are just deciding to change their plans, throwing people off their current coverage.
She leaves out the part where Obamacare legally requires all health insurance plans to include a certain number of benefits that was above and beyond what many more, ahem, affordable plans offered, thereby making certain plans illegal. Many of those plans were plans that people liked and were assured they could keep. Obamacare offered a “grandfathering” clause, which the administration later eviscerated after it had served its political purpose, ensuring even more people would lose their current coverage. So, no change is required by you under Obamacare unless your insurance company goes and changes your existing plan to comply with Obamacare.

Part of the master plan
Blame private business for your problems
Force every one into Medicade (single payer)
Said like a true Stalinist commissar, with no trace of irony.
I knew they would get around to this. They will say Zero didn’t lie about keeping your plan. “Oh, you can keep your plan if you like it. You’ll just have to pay more for it. Even if you can’t afford food or shelter. Simple, really.”
Who the hell does this Chicago slumlord think she is?
The sad parts are that the MSM paid propaganda whores will tout this and the slack jawed low information Progressive voters will believe it.
There is a grandfather provision that sounds like it lets you keep your policy but in practice it does what we see it doing, the insurance company cant change anything not a dollar forever or it is banned immediately with all the others,
The buck stops over yonder.
ValJAr is not dealing with retards here.
She KNOWS she is the defacto President of the United States. Don’t question HER authoratay!
I’d die a happy man if I could pull the trapdoor lever and
make her do the hangman’s dance. She is evil incarnate.
D-bag.
We are not all stupid Acorn types - they can save their phony balony for lo-fo people and even they probably aren’t buying this $hit anymore.
Yeah, kinda like Grove Parc Plaza, huh Val?
I really dont want Jarrett to become a mechanic....or a brain surgeon...or any sort of JOB.... that relies on evil western sequential LOGIC
My foot on the accelerator doesnt make my engine rev up ....its the gas,,,that does it.....eh val?
There's nothing like that in Obamacare. Absolutely nothing.
But, you know, they do have a vast corps of bureaucrats scattered around the country who will refuse to authorize any payment for your surgery or medicine if they think you're just too old to go on living.
But it's not a death panel. It's completely different.
No change is required unless insurance companies change existing plans.
So to keep your plan the insurance company will have to not make any changes to it; including not keeping up with the massive price hikes Obamney Care forces on the health care sector.
Yes it was the plan and conforms to standard the lib/fascist MO.
1) Use govt regulation to screw up an industry
2) Claim the problem is that we don’t have enough regulation
3) Repeat as needed
4) Once the industry is fully screwed up claim that this is proof that the market doesn’t work and we need total govt control.
As a caller to a local radio station once stated: “Most of today’s problems are the result of yesterday’s solutions.”
“I didn’t kill those people, Yer Honor - the stoopid idjits kilt themselves by standin’ where I was shootin’!”
Evil.
