I think the key message is he is admitting they underestimated the response to this push and they are having to recalibrate their attack.
Once again, if Obama’s lips are moving, he is lying. He is merely playing good cop for a while. He has no intention of backing down. In fact, I believe he and his fellow commies propose far out things they know will never pass, then agree to “compromise”, so that people will accept what they really intended to pass in the first place. He is always on the offensive to take away our freedom, our rights, and our money; no matter what he says for public consumption.
