The Liar-in-Chief

Posted on Comments

How bad is the failure of ObamaCare? Bad enough that MSNBC’s Morning Joe can’t ignore it, says Pete Da Tech Guy. While they cannot ignore it, however, the liberal media must find some explanation that makes this failure look less predictable than it was, and how to make President Obama’s deliberate lies look like innocent errors:

President Obama repeatedly assured Americans that after the Affordable Care Act became law, people who liked their health insurance would be able to keep it. But millions of Americans are getting or are about to get cancellation letters for their health insurance under Obamacare, say experts, and the Obama administration has known that for at least three years.
Four sources deeply involved in the Affordable Care Act tell NBC NEWS that 50 to 75 percent of the 14 million consumers who buy their insurance individually can expect to receive a “cancellation” letter or the equivalent over the next year because their existing policies don’t meet the standards mandated by the new health care law. One expert predicts that number could reach as high as 80 percent. And all say that many of those forced to buy pricier new policies will experience “sticker shock.” . . .

So all those promises — that rates would go down and that people could keep their existing plans — were deliberate lies. And all the conservatives who tried to warn that ObamaCare was doomed to failure were correct. But the liars were all Democrats, and the people who told the truth were all Republicans, so there will be no apologies and no repentance. Instead, they’ll just come up with new lies.

  1. All hail the Imperious Leader, He Who Must Be Believed…

    It has become the fulcrum of national politics.

  2. Okay it is late and probably intended to get the bad news out well in advance of any elections that matter, but when NBC says Obama lied about Obamacare and CBS says Obama and Hillary lied about Benghazi it is sort of refreshing.

    It is almost like they are real news outlets.

  10. I keep vacillating between the One being extraordinarily evil versus extraordinarily stupid and thus merely a puppet for the various Rasputins populating this administration. Certainly, if one believes the legion of “I didn’t know about [fill in blank with your choice from an endless buffet of blunders and scandals],” then he is simply a Manchurian Candidate, saying whatever idiocy pops into his head while the real power brokers work to destroy everything America is and was for over two centuries. Part of me would almost rather him be a liar than an idiot puppet being manipulated. The latter is far more frightening to me than the former.

  13. Note their breaking news stories came conveniently after the 2012 election.

    History will not treat this generation kindly. The utter nonsense we’ve (as a culture) embraced is a stain upon humanity.

  16. Methinks Sdferr [writing over at Protein Wisdom] is a prophet:

    How long before BHO hints that ACA protests will be necessary (thus required of media shills and OFAoafs)? I’m guessing around February or March, when the next phase begins…that being, ramping up to replace OFailCare with Single Payer; timed to coincide with Barky’s push to take the House “so we can CHANGE our healthcare plan to a fair and workable single-payer plan covering all Americans.”

    Watch for the almost overnight pivot.

  20. […] The Abject Messiah has been proven a liar. Members of the Unicorn King’s court are spinning furiously–to the point of insanity–desperate to deflect the truth of what an unmitigated disaster his signature “accomplishment” is becoming, and the damage it doing to both himself and their agenda.
