As the midterm election approaches, vulnerable Democrats have a new worry that may be difficult to spin: Where did the promised $2,500 savings in health insurance premiums go?
As a candidate in 2008, Barack Obama repeatedly said his healthcare plan would reduce the typical family's annual premiums by up to $2,500 per year. Often, he did not include the caveat "up to," simply saying the "typical" family would save about $2,500 a year on premiums.
But now, a month past the signup deadline for coverage, comparisons for the typical family's then and now premium costs are difficult to come by. The Obama administration isn't issuing such numbers. At best, it has said the costs are "lower than projected," reported most recently by the Los Angeles Times.

“God loves you and YET, He wants you to love Him more than you do now, and He wants to make that possible if you are willing to walk through the trials that will take.”
That is, I believe, the key or very close to it. I do robustly affirm that Christianity is a valid explanation of how this takes place. God undergoing visible agony for the sake of love, and yet insisting that love BE love. He isn’t interested in being a sugar daddy for a devil.
Liars lie. Its what they do. Obama is an expert.

Yes, he’s pretty good at it but then again most Americans are quite gullible and easily fooled. Its not hard taking candy from a baby.
He also promised “Recovery Summer” five years ago. He lies with complete impunity.

Well, if you had insurance and were paying $2,500 plus for it and now you cant afford it, I guess you could say that because of Obamacare you are saving $2,500?
Good point...
People are just too ignorant to see it! Shut up and listen to your overlords!
Both yahoo and the NYT have articles saying basically, “Despite the fact that most Americans are SO much better off with the Affordable Care Act, a small minority are not, and for some reason, people have a negative view of it.”
How I hate the lying liberal media. Sometimes I wonder if they are self-deceptive libs, but sometimes I know they are just Goebbels-like propagandists shilling for the state. This is one of those times.
No, the reason the people HATE the “ACA” is because practically NOBODY is better off with it. And the only reason they have any signups at all is because the tyranny of the state is FORCING them.
