It was a promise made by President Barack Obama that first surfaced in the selling of his sweeping health care initiative and eventually required a public apology and new rules to fix after the measure became law.

Gasp.
Along with if you like your 40 hr a week job you can keep your 40 hr a week job!

Not a natural born citizen or a bastard child of a Communist party functionary? Is he the super genius that the llib/commies make him out to be or just a fraud with bad grades? Did he get into Harvard because of his brilliance or did he get in because of a 20 million grant from Saudi Arabia? The list is endless.
If you like your president you can keep your president........WON’T
Can’t keep your doctor.
Can’t keep your insurance.
“Affordable Care” isn’t affordable.
Millions will sign up and be grateful... they didn’t sign up and aren’t grateful.
It was all a lie, every little bit.
Yeah, the same regime that keeps telling us they’ve added jobs to the economy. That their NSA aren’t spying for political reasons and that there isn’t a smidgeon of corruption in the IRS targeting scandal.
They must really think everyone is as stupid and deluded as they are. I’d rather have Jimmy Carter in charge than these idiots and anyone who can top Carter in incompetence is quite amazing.
Every time I heard this lie of keeping dr or ins. I thought WHO THE HELL ARE YOU TO TELL ME WHAT I CAN AND CAN’T KEEP YOU POS !!!!!!
(with all due respect to excrement)
PERIOD !
