Hopefully, smart people won’t be swayed by Barack Hussein Obama’s lies about keeping their private health insurance plans if his public option health care plan is voted in.
While campaigning back in 2008, Obama said he was a proponent of single payer health insurance. Today, he sings a different tune.
Additionally, I found this quote on a right wing political message board, but the poster didn’t provide a link. Anyway, the point is: BHO has been caught in yet another lie. So what else is new?
Last September Sen. Barack Obama promised that under his health-care proposal “you’ll be able to get the same kind of coverage that members of Congress give themselves.” On Monday, President Obama repeated that promise in a speech to the American Medical Association. It’s not true.
The president is barnstorming the nation, urging swift approval of legislation that is taking shape in Congress. This legislation — the Affordable Health Choices Act that’s being drafted by Sen. Edward Kennedy’s staff and the Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee — will push Americans into stingy insurance plans with tight, HMO-style controls. It specifically exempts members of Congress (along with federal employees; the exemptions are in section 3116)
Again I ask: why doesn’t Obama just reform Medicaid so those 45-50 million uninsured Americans and illegal immigrants can join instead of destroying the health care system as we know it in America?
