Obama fudging another health-care horror story? (Yes, Barry Lies Again)
HotAir ^ | 09/19/09 | Ed Morrissey

Posted on 09/19/2009 8:24:25 AM PDT by JRochelle

Snip: In her speech yesterday, Michelle Obama told a story to which every parent can relate — the moment that a child may have a severe illness that could kill them or damage them for life (via JammieWearingFool):

"I will never forget the time eight years ago when Sasha was four months that she would not stop crying. And she was not a crier, so we knew something was wrong. So we fortunately were able to take her to our pediatrician that next morning. He examined her and same something’s wrong. We didn’t know what. But he told us that she could have meningitis. So we were terrified. He said, get to the emergency room right away. And fortunately for us, things worked out, because she is now the Sasha that we all know and love today — (laughter) — who is causing me great — excitement." (Laughter.)

Things worked out because Sasha got immediate attention, and turned out not to have meningitis after all, as the New York Times reports (and as Mrs. Obama hints in the speech)

Snip:

Maybe someone should have told Mrs. Obama’s husband. In a speech to nurses just eight days earlier, Barack Obama told the story quite a bit differently (emphasis mine):

"When our youngest daughter, Sasha, was diagnosed with meningitis when she was just three months old, it was one of the scariest moments of my life. And we had to have a spinal tap administered and she ended up being in the hospital for three or four days. And it was touch and go, we didn’t know whether she’d be permanently affected by it. It was the nurses who walked us through what was happening and made sure that Sasha was okay."

This president of ours is so desperate for a win in the health care debate that he will lie about his own children if he thinks that will garner him a few more supporters.

He is the worst president ever.

MAY GOD HELP US THOUGH THE NEXT 3.5 YEARS.

O’baldfacedliar has already sacrificed his own grandmother and mother under the campaign bus...I’m not surprised he’d use lies about his own children...par for the course.

Not only are they liars........they are stupid liars. Do they think people aren't checking facts?

God help them for lying about their own children to achieve their evil schemes/goals.

“”Who in the hell dresses this woman? “”

Valid question for sure. I think she has a motorcycle waiting outside for a quick getaway.
