To the surprise of no one, President Obama has been busy deflecting criticism of his “If you like your plan” lie by blaming insurance companies:
“Just shop around in the new marketplace,” he said. “You’re going to get a better deal.”

“Remember, before the Affordable Care Act, these bad-apple insurers had free rein every single year to limit the care that you received, or used minor pre-existing conditions to jack up your premiums, or bill you into bankruptcy,” Obama said.
Similarly, the New York Times’ widely-mocked Sunday editorial (claiming that Obama “misspoke” when he promised Americans who liked their insurance that they could keep it) referred to existing plans as “Insurance Policies Not Worth Keeping.” In contrast, under O-care:
Starting next year, all plans sold in this country will be required to provide 10 essential benefits, including some, like mental health and substance abuse treatment and maternity and newborn care, that are not now part of many policies.
How do these new talking points stack up against reality? Not so well.

Obama is using “bad apple” now because he hasn’t figured out how to pronounce “kulak” yet.
“Liquidate the horders, wreckers and running dogs of capitalism!” /s
What if I don’t want Obama’s policy?
Pray America will wake up

A crude, unintelligent, lazy thug. That kind of president.
LOL!
