President Obama's former press secretary, Robert Gibbs, says it was "certainly" wrong for the president to continuously promise that people would be able to keep their health care plans under Obamacare
..."Well, look, I don't recall significant discussions around some of the verbage on this, to be a hundred percent honest with you," said Gibbs this morning.
"But do you agree it was a wrong move?"
"Oh, well, certainly," said Gibbs. "I mean, I don't think anybody dealing with this today finds what was said. Now, I do think some explanation in terms of the fact that policies that were in place at the point at which the president signed them were grandfathered in for this."

Bait and switch. The president of the United States deliberately lied to Americans to make them take the spoonful of poison.
Wasn’t Gibby working at the White House during 2009-2010?
Yep, 2009 - 2011
So deflect away from “Well, he HAD to lie to you because that’s the only way he could do what he wanted to you,” to some diffused “analysis” about whether it was the right “move.”
He lied, but that is old news, so let’s move on. And besides, he lied to only a few million people, so what does it matter.
Somebody throw up that pic of “Bagdad Jay”.
The democrat party figured out long ago that all you have to do is make impossible promises, i.e., lie and lie some more, and you get elected.
The line of demarcation is 6 million. Until then, two things ring true:
Sarah Palin was right.
Ted Cruz was right.
Did Gibbs leave on bad terms? He has to know he shouldn’t be saying that out loud.
Tubby Gibbs is auditioning to be Christie’s running mate.
Gibbs is a political whore like George Snuffalopolous. He wants to make money as an analyst and wants to appear “objective.” Communists are not objective.
deflating/de-escalating the situation. impeachment for lying to the entire country on a massive takeover of 17% of the economy? no, it was merely a ‘wrong move’.
surprised he didn’t quote bill maher’s reasoning.
We need to start asking for a re-vote.
Since so much of Obama’s agenda has been accomplished by “executive order” much of his extra-constitutional legislation can be reversed (if not completely undone) by a subsequent repeal of the executive orders by the next sitting president.
The only ‘choice’ that Democrats are ever for is the ‘choice’ of killing your own child.
What he means is, “It was wrong for him to lie, but I would gladly have lied to the press for him because it was the right thing to do. That’s what I did everyday.”
