Obama's got a fulltime lie factory working for him, researching "talking points" and then fudging them into useful roorbacks to throw in conservatives' faces.
Like the "Teddy Roosevelt wanted national health insurance" lie. He absolutely did not -- that is a political lie of the first water, kidnapping a Rushmore face to work for the lie, and Obama repeated it at least three times if he used it once. And his MSM claque parrotted it for him like a Greek chorus, too.>
Teddy Roosevelt, as a Bull Mooser not a GOP'er, proposed as an idea that a public law establish that private employers purchase, on their own responsibility, insurance policies that amount to what we call "key man" and "income continiuation" plans. Both are common in private practice already.
Furthermore, the proposal was limited to industrial companies where lost-time accidents were more common.
Obama's slugs recanned that old proposal as a political lie.
