Confusing Obama

Ya might not want to listen to what Obama’s saying about his healthcare bill – or his team of leftist bloggers:

Morning Bell: Obama Admits He’s “Not Familiar” With House Bill (www.heritage.org)

With the public’s trust in his handling of health care tanking (50%-44% of Americans disapprove), the White House has launched a new phase of its strategy designed to pass Obamacare: all Obama, all the time. As part of that effort, Obama hosted a conference call with leftist bloggers urging them to pressure Congress to pass his health plan as soon as possible.

During the call, a blogger from Maine said he kept running into an Investors Business Daily article that claimed Section 102 of the House health legislation would outlaw private insurance. He asked: “Is this true? Will people be able to keep their insurance and will insurers be able to write new policies even though H.R. 3200 is passed?” President Obama replied: “You know, I have to say that I am not familiar with the provision you are talking about.” (quote begins at 17:10)

He’s not really lying but he’s not telling the truth because he doesn’t know the truth. But not knowing the truth and portraying that you do – now that’s lying. So… LIAR!

I’m hearing things like if this doesn’t go through, then Obama is sunk. Already? It has only been 6 months!

I wonder what the threshold is for promising change (not specifying change in which direction) and not coming through with good change. I think we’re getting close… very close.
