And at every dining room table at Thanksgiving every liberal member of your family will insist that its the right that is in bed with the insurance companies...

Rep. Trey Gowdy says President Barack Obama’s latest comments about his health care law could earn him another Nobel Prize — for fiction. “The president already has a Nobel Prize for peace, I think he’s shooting for one in fiction,” Gowdy (R-S.C) said Monday on Fox News’s “The Kelly File.”

"They said if you liked your insurance you could keep your insurance—but that’s not true. It was never true! They said if you liked your doctor you could keep your doctor—but that’s not true. It was never true! They said they would cover everyone who needed it, and instead people who had coverage are losing it—millions of them! They said they would make insurance less expensive—but it’s more expensive! Premium shock, deductible shock. They said don’t worry, your health information will be secure, but instead the whole setup looks like a hacker’s holiday. Bad guys are apparently already going for your private information. . . . "

> On Tuesday, a spokesperson for Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) called Obama’s promise “deceptive.”

“Just stop. Stop,” Boehner spokesman Brendan Buck said. “Stop and admit you sold this health law on a central promise that is flat-out untrue. Have enough respect for the people who elected you to be honest. No one is being fooled anymore.”

How can you not love this when you tried to warn the melonheads that they’ve been lied to and decieved by their earthly god, the AC...

Summoned to the White House and given Censorship Orders. Is that Nazism or Communism? Maybe nobody felt politically pressured by the #2 guy in the country (Chief of Staff). The IRS would never attack political opponents.... oh never mind.

Asked? I’ll bet they “asked”.

And what happens to those people in limbo between being cancelled and getting the ObamaCare insurance?

Obama chief of staff Denis McDonough asked insurance executives to explain to customers who are losing their plans what new options are available under ObamaCare, and what new subsidies they might qualify for.

So now it's the the insurance companies' responsibility to tell people what subsidies they qualify for?

That involves insurance companies finding out what the income levels of their customers are, and hiring new personnel to Segway between customers who qualify for subsidies and the Fed Gov't who sets those rules.

NIGHTMARE!

The White House on Tuesday asked health insurers for help in quelling the growing furor over the cancellation of insurance plans under ObamaCare.

The same insurers that Obama threw under the bus just last week when he called them 'bad apples' and implied that they were cancelling policies for reasons other than compliance with that pile of foulage called Obamacare?

>>The White House is looking to fight back by saying that many of those who receive cancellation notices will get better coverage for the same price or cheaper on the ObamaCare exchanges.<<

Another in a long list of lies.

>>And now, they’re looking to recruit insurance companies to help explain that to consumers upset over seeing their plans canceled.<<

Why should they help in the destruction of their livelihood?

With one side of his mouth he tries to blame the insurance companies for this monumental screw up, and with the other side of his mouth he asks them to help pull his fat out of the fire. Unbelievable.

I hope they tell him they aren't interested in taking this on as their problem, because as soon as they get involved, that's what will happen.

I think Obama's finally run up against a bigger problem than he can lie his way out of.

If he had any pride in himself he'd resign, but he won't, so there's no reason to make the next 3 years any easier on him.

Ramping up communications efforts doesn’t turn lead into gold, it just ends up in you yelling, “it’s lead” louder.

The insurance companies willingly signed-on to this crud. They were having multiple orgasms thinking of the 30+ million new customers that would be headed their way at gunpoint.

Of course they will do the Dictator’s bidding.

Good grief, demonize the insurance companies and do everything they can to put them out of business...then demand help in making fools of Americans.
