President Obama traveled to Boston on Wednesday to qualify his promise that you can keep your health plan, but as usual he had to do more. Forced to concede (implicitly) that his famous claim is false, he accused ObamaCare's opponents of spreading "a lot of confusion and misinformation" and "being grossly misleading, to say the least."
Voters may recall Mr. Romney as the Republican candidate the Obama campaign said was responsible for the death of a Missouri steelworker's wife, among many other White House inventions. But on Wednesday Mr. Obama cited Mr. Romney as a political model who did "the right thing on health care" and built "this template of proven, bipartisan success."
The Boston trip is classic example of the Obama political method and why his Presidency is floundering only a year into his second term. Amid a crisis of government execution and policy design, Mr. Obama doesn't address the flaws or take responsibility.
Instead he hits the campaign trail to blame Republicans once again for a failure they had nothing to do with—and to spin new political fables to replace the old ones that even he can no longer utter with a straight face. On his current behavior, the only time Mr. Obama is going to act as if he's President is when he no longer is.

In September 2010, Senate Republicans brought a resolution to the floor to block implementation of the grandfather rule, warning that it would result in canceled policies and violate President Barack Obama’s promise that people could keep their insurance if they liked it.
Senate Democrats voted to kill the bill.

Channeling Peter Sellers, I think little barry bastard boy is more ‘a minkey’ than a Manqué.
