Harris-Perry's Hilarious Excuse For Obama's 'If You Like It You Can Keep It' Lie
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 11/02/2013 8:51:06 AM PDT by governsleastgovernsbest

Of all the lame attempts to explain away President Obama's oft-repeated Obamacare lie that "if you like your plan, you can keep it," Melissa Harris-Perry might have come up with the most hilarious: President Obama figured people wouldn't like it!

Yes, that's what MHP actually asserted on her MSNBC show this morning, claiming the Obama administration figured people wouldn't like their plans, and would clamor for the ones offered under Obamacare. Of course the argument still leaves Obama as having lied. Even if if a majority of people with private plans didn't like them, that would still leave millions being forced out of plans they did like. So Obama would still have lied, albeit on a smaller scale.

1) The girl should honestly think about getting rid of the dreads.

2) She need to get her teeth fixed,

3) It is karma that she decries the reason for all the bad publicity is “all the concern-trolling.”

If anyone can spot concern-trolling it is she. She and her ilk are masters at the tactic.

She pronounces anything with an “s” in it with an annoying lisp. Hate to get personal, but, she could use help with that. Perhaps the teeth getting fixed would help.

Yes, as soon as I realized that my health insurance had never offered me a free breast pump, I suddenly saw how I had been living under the brutal thumb of capitalistic tyranny and never even knew it.

It was truly a “lightbulb moment,” and I’ve never been the same since. I can not go back to the way things were.

Listen closely to a speech by Obama. He has that same annoying Sssss sound at the end of his words sometimes.

I remember once some ass-licking urinalist pulling some crap out of his ass about “people with sibilant S's are geniuses.” You usually hear it when people have improperly fitted false teeth.

if a majority of people with private plans

The Team Obamacare response to that is 'most people get their insurance through their employer/company.'

That way, they don't have to respond to the actual complaint about individuals losing their insurance.

Team Obamacare are very adept at deflecting. They are expert at the dipsy-doodle fast-foot shuffle.

Finkelstein’s been posting here for many years, probably nearing eight or nine years, and nearly everyday.

“Concern Trolling”? Given the prevalence of “Concern” or “Desperation” to be more accurate, concern trolling is like mosquito hunting in a swamp. It’s everywhere and not at all hard to find.

These National Socialists are getting very desperate.

Finkelstein's Complaint. Didn't Saul Bellow get the Pulitzer for that?

Joke.

Coming from a moron who wore tampons for earrings on tv to claiming our children don’t “belong to us” . . . but I guess for the left it matters more the color of her skin than what comes out of her idiotic mouth.
