Fresh doubt cast on Obama's health care story
Washington Examiner ^ | 7/11/11 | Byron York

Posted on 07/11/2011 6:06:49 PM PDT by Nachum

During the 2008 presidential campaign, Barack Obama often discussed his mother's struggle with cancer. Ann Dunham spent the months before her death in 1995, Obama said, fighting with insurance companies that sought to deny her the coverage she needed to pay for treatment.

"I remember in the last month of her life, she wasn't thinking about how to get well, she wasn't thinking about coming to terms with her own mortality, she was thinking about whether or not insurance was going to cover the medical bills and whether our family would be bankrupt as a consequence," Obama said in September 2007.

"She was in her hospital room looking at insurance forms because the insurance company said that maybe she had a pre-existing condition and maybe they wouldn't have to reimburse her for her medical bills," Obama added in January 2008.

"The insurance companies were saying, 'Maybe there's a pre-existing condition and we don't have to pay your medical bills,' " Obama said in a debate with Republican opponent Sen. John McCain in October 2008.

I think there is doubt on any story Obama has ever told because I think he is a liar.

Wow - Obama might have been a shameless liar about it. Who could have seen THAT coming? /s

This guy has glided through life being able to get away with the most egregious lies because of affirmative action. He knows darn well that the MSM and his allies will cry “racism” if anyone were to even raise a single question about his crazy lies. God help us if he gets re-elected.

Everything from his birth nation to his mysterious college transcripts to his religion has been a lie. Even his intellect is in question with his 58 states’ gaffes...

He simply picked up the Clinton playbook and turned to the section where it explains how to tell lies about dead people who can't set the record straight, and make up fictional anecdotes that are un-checkable. With a complicit media, even with the internet it is an effective tactic. They used it to a T with Sarah Palin

THINK he’s a liar? How much does it take to convince you?
He’s a liar/spinmeister from Alinsky/Soros hell.

There’s enough proof out there to sink a ship.

“”I remember in the last month of her life, she wasn’t thinking about how to get well, she wasn’t thinking about coming to terms with her own mortality, she was thinking about whether or not insurance was going to cover the medical bills and whether our family would be bankrupt as a consequence””

WOW! What a whopper. Who is “our family?” What assets did his mother EVER have? Who paid all her college bills? Who supported her?

Funny that Ann Dunham’s “son and attorney” to whom she turned over the CIGNA case couldn’t remember the details, supposedly confusing health insurance benefits with a disability claim.

He’s not only a liar, he’s a lousy lawyer to have made that kind of mistake if we are to believe the story at all. Is it any wonder he left the bar as quickly as he did?

Dunham protested the decision and, Scott writes, "informed CIGNA that she was turning over the case to 'my son and attorney, Barack Obama.' "

I'll bet right after they received this threat, they made one phone call to find out about this attorney- "Barack Obama".

Then they laughed their asses off.

Apparently Obama thinks the Children are responsible for the Parent's Bills.

Now if he can only change the Law so the Children are responsible for the Parent's Federal Taxes, his Dream of Utopia will be complete.
