Less than two months ago, in late September, President Barack Obama openly mocked Republicans who predicted that the rollout of the Affordable Care Act would be disastrous. He explained to a group of supporters at Prince George’s Community College:
“The Republican party has just spun itself up around this issue. And the fact is the Republicans’ biggest fear at this point is not that Affordable Care Act will fail. What they’re worried about is it’s going to succeed! …All this would be funny if it wasn’t so crazy.”Of course, it has turned out that Republicans and critics of the President’s health care law, who said millions of Americans would lose their insurance and see rate increases, were correct. Yet the President felt so confidence about ObamaCare and Healthcare.gov’s success that he quipped:
But you don’t have to take my word for it. If you talked to somebody who said, “Well, I don’t know, I was watching Fox News and they said this is horrible.”And you — and you can say, “You know what, don’t take my word for it. Go on the website. See for yourself what the prices are. See for yourself what the choices are. Then make up your own mind.” Just make — that’s all I’m asking. Make up your own mind.

The lies just keep on comin’.
The scary thing is that if you asked Obama now if there was anything wrong with those quotes from September, he would say nope - every word of it was true.
Either Obama was and is clueless about the provisions of Obamacare, knowingly lied about the effects of Obamacare or is delusional. None of these bode well for this country.
liar-in-cheif
There’s a diagnosis for that.
Call me "crazy"!

Do you really think that there is any question that he lied?
He knew exactly what he was doing and he knew that the press was on it's knees doing whatever he wanted them to do.
When I speak to liberals, read Progressives, they all say that they are just trying to be fair, that the current system isn't fair.
I don't know who is the proper judge of “fair” but I do know that under capitalism in this country more people have received better health care, better food, better transportation and better housing that at any time in the history of the world. Some people had better than others but it was all better than the rest of the world. All the conditions listed above are going down, not up in the last five years. The problem with progressive thinking is that they don't care about the quality as long as we all have the same thing. It is a problem of not seeing farther than the end of your nose. Capitalism has done more good for the world than any other system ever created. LEAVE IT ALONE!
THAT’S why the MSM has been forced to turn on him. He’s said just too many arrogant things on tape. It will all come back at the Dems in ads running all next year. No way in Hades the MSM can credibly defend him.
hussein is the crazy, psycho crazy, one.

I also remember him giving a speech at Ohio State University in which he told the students to not listen to those saying he is a dictator. Not sure of his exact words, but it was something along these lines. Another lie - he very much wants to be a dictator and is working toward that goal.
