President Obama continues to alter his signature promise in selling the Affordable Care Act back in 2009 and 2010.
"If you like your plan, you can keep your plan," he said back then.
But that simple pledge has had to change as the Affordable Care Act has been implemented and a small percentage of Americans, albeit millions of people, have received cancellation notices from their insurance companies. And for the second time in two weeks, he's tweaked the line.
When President Obama spoke Monday night to a group of supporters, he said: "While virtually every insurer is offering new, better plans and competing for these folks' business, I realize that can be scary for people if you just get some notice like that."

I would dearly love to send odumbo his “eviction notice” and would be proud to be able to hand it to him in person. There’s nothing like humiliation to bring this dog down!
“But it remained for the Jews, with their unqualified capacity for falsehood, and their fighting comrades, the Marxists, to impute responsibility for the downfall precisely to the man who alone had shown a superhuman will and energy in his effort to prevent the catastrophe which he had foreseen and to save the nation from that hour of complete overthrow and shame. By placing responsibility for the loss of the world war on the shoulders of Ludendorff they took away the weapon of moral right from the only adversary dangerous enough to be likely to succeed in bringing the betrayers of the Fatherland to Justice.
“All this was inspired by the principle—which is quite true within itself—that in the big lie there is always a certain force of credibility; because the broad masses of a nation are always more easily corrupted in the deeper strata of their emotional nature than consciously or voluntarily; and thus in the primitive simplicity of their minds they more readily fall victims to the big lie than the small lie, since they themselves often tell small lies in little matters but would be ashamed to resort to large-scale falsehoods. It would never come into their heads to fabricate colossal untruths, and they would not believe that others could have the impudence to distort the truth so infamously. Even though the facts which prove this to be so may be brought clearly to their minds, they will still doubt and waver and will continue to think that there may be some other explanation. For the grossly impudent lie always leaves traces behind it, even after it has been nailed down, a fact which is known to all expert liars in this world and to all who conspire together in the art of lying.”

Scary doesn't do justice to the visceral feeling.
More like getting an invite for tea with Polonius
Or receiving a ticket to the Gulag archipelago.
Or waiting for treatment for a broken arm...like this guy in UK
The biggest joke of all is the name of Obama’s pretend health plan, The Affordable Care Act. It is affordable only to those who will not be paying for it. The humorous writer, P. J. O’Rourk, said about twenty years ago, “If you think health care is expensive now, just wait until it is free.”

Another one of my stutter posts.
“A Parliament of Whores” by P.J. O’Rourke should be REQUIRED READING for all freepers (and college students)
I agree. I have known P. J. for decades and he, in my opinion, is one of our generation’s best writers.
If you have an employer based plan, you might not get to keep that either. Sebelius said so yesterday.

The greatest single lie ever told in American Politics and the Obama Socialists have no clue that they even did anything wrong.
Who among our leaders will have the courage to face Obama and say “sir, have you no shame”?
Someone had better do it and soon, because this is our opening and we have to take it to demonstrate to America how corrupt the minds of the socialist are.
THIS is our point we have to make to voters about how we are different than the Socialists.
We don’t need fundamental change of this country, but we do need fundamental change of the socialist politicians who can’t and will not be truthful with the citizens they work for.
Liar, Liar, pants on fire! Liars lie.
