Obama: I need to 'win back' public's trust
Washington Examiner ^ | November 14, 2013 | Meghashyam Mali

President Obama on Thursday said he would need to “win back” the trust of the American public after the botched rollout of his health care reform law.

“I think it's legitimate for them to expect me to have to win back some credibility on this health care law,” said Obama. “That's on me."

Obama’s remarks came as he announced a fix that would allow insurers to renew health plans that fail to meet Obamacare’s requirements. Under the new health care law, millions of Americans were expected to be dropped by insurers and be forced to seek new plans often at higher costs.

The cancellations, which came despite Obama’s repeated pledge that consumers could keep their plans under the health law, coupled with the technical glitches affecting the healthcare.gov website, have hurt the president in the polls and undermined support for his signature domestic achievement.

I learned everything I needed to know about the communist by reading this in August 2008:

Now it seems that Corsi didn't even dig deep enough.

See the narcissism? Even now with the West Wing Wahabi’s credibility all shot to hell he is GIVING US PERMISSION to “start” having doubts...!

Its like he thinks that merely by conceding that its OK for us to feel creeped out, well, now we OWE IT TO HIM to cut him some slack...!

Say, Barry, why not CLAP YOUR SCROTUM BETWEEN TWO HEAVY BRICKS..?

Yeah, let’s thoughtfully put that up for consideration, shall we...?

The first step towards winning back the public trust is to put an end to telling lies. After listening to his presser today, it is clear that he is unwilling to do that.

If Hussein is removed, then Biden becomes Prez.

Who gets to be Veep? Cankles? I'd be nervous if I were Joe.

His whole presidency is based on a lie. One can expect nothing else.

This is the sterotypical response of a sociopath caught in his web of lies. It is generally followed by another untrustworthy statement as if the audience accepts the premise of regaining trust.

Has anyone heard any grumblings from the left that the Tea Party hacked the website? When the website began having its problems, I am almost insulted that they didn’t blame the Tea Party.

“It used to be. S&W 500 now(excluding any special order).”

With Barry’s pea-sized brain, a .17HMW will do just fine. Don’t waste any money on anything bigger.

” - - - it’s legitimate for them to expect me to have to win back - - - - “

WHOOO - Boy! Obamanation politics are sooooooo confusing!

Now the Obaminator himself is mouthing the banned word “Back!”

This is not what Obama said when he campaigned in 2008 with the slogan “We can’t go back!”

Then came the Obamanation Foreign Policy of “Leading from Behind,” not Leading from the back. Then Greg Gutfeld on FOX’s “The Five” pointed out that that policy made Obama look like an ass, and the Leftstream Media pulled that slogan.

Then came the talking point phrase “Moving Forward” dutifully repeated by all of Obama’s on-camera Brownshirts from Jay Carney on down the propaganda food chain.

Then came the 2012 Campaign slogan “Forward!” complete with a Commie rendition of Old Glory that soon morphed into the photos of the blood-stained walls of Benghazi.

All of this “FORWARD” and now B. Hussein himself is saying that “his bunch of folks” want him to GO BACK!?

B. Hussein has always marched his Democrat and Leftstream Media Brownshirts FORWARD down the wrong track into the bottomless money pit of infinite National Debt.

B. Hussein is not a “Back” kinda guy!

Well, to be fair, Obama always lies, and thus it can be clearly said that he does go “back” on his word.

Also, come to think of it, Obama always blames others for things that he does or doesn’t do, so to be transparent, B. Hussein does stab people in the “back.”

In all of B. Hussein’s Public Teleprompter Speeches, he always 1. Lies, 2.) blames, and 3.) ridicules those that he has stabbed in the “back” and then 4.) demonizes them, in the same manner as any cat-fighting, school yard, girly, bully does.

On second thought, B. Hussein, in his own cowardly, bully-pulpit way DOES have
a transparent track record with the banned phrase “back.”

Can B. Hussein come “back” from the blame and shame of the deep money pit, National Debt hole he dug by himself?

Mr. and Mrs. Bill Clinton say “Resign Obama, have Biden appoint Hilly Veep, and then we will have a chat.”

“If they locked him in a Cell with Hillary Clinton, Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi and Sandra Fluke, while piping in Rush Limbaugh 24/7, it would do my poor old heart a world of good.”

And somewhere, Jimmah Cahata is saying “Oh, goody, I’m not the worst President in history!”

TRUST IS EARNED AND NOT WON OR GIVEN... AND OBAMA HAS NEVER EARNED ANYTHING IN HIS ENTIRE EVIL LIFE.

The entire central socialist government, including the total courts’ system is corrupt and needs to be attacked with a meat axe.
