Obama: I need to 'win back' public's trust
Washington Examiner ^ | November 14, 2013 | Meghashyam Mali

President Obama on Thursday said he would need to “win back” the trust of the American public after the botched rollout of his health care reform law.

“I think it's legitimate for them to expect me to have to win back some credibility on this health care law,” said Obama. “That's on me."

Obama’s remarks came as he announced a fix that would allow insurers to renew health plans that fail to meet Obamacare’s requirements. Under the new health care law, millions of Americans were expected to be dropped by insurers and be forced to seek new plans often at higher costs.

The cancellations, which came despite Obama’s repeated pledge that consumers could keep their plans under the health law, coupled with the technical glitches affecting the healthcare.gov website, have hurt the president in the polls and undermined support for his signature domestic achievement.

The Zero gang of thugs has now moved to lawlessness to cover the lies about lies in order to push their anti-American agenda.

0bama just did exactly the same thing that James O’Keefe caught the 0bamaCare navigators doing. He told the insurance companies that they could just break the law if they want to.

*sigh*

Three.

Lies, theft, demagoguery, and constant pressure to make us become a midsummer night's leftist totalitarian state dreamed up in the faculty lounges of the Ivy League schools.

You NEVER had my trust, 0scumbag! I did the requisite research on you back in early 2008, and found out exactly what/who you are.

I was always taught the saying was: Earn back the trust. This guy looks at everything like a competition. What a twit.

42% of “Americans “ still approve of this homo communist foreigner We have a much larger problem than Vacation Guy The 42% must be disenfranchised

The 42% need to allowed to feel the full excruciating pain of what they've enabled. They're responsible for unleashing this disaster upon their fellow citizens, and themselves. They need to suffer the consequences in order to learn a vital lesson.

Why does EVERYTHING always be 'all about him'?

What about the people who lose coverage, who will DIE?

This guy would go to a funeral, and in the eulogy, talk nonstop about himself.

Yep. He's either the most arrogant narcissist prick to ever be President, or the most delusional. This crap just can't go on. Someone's going to have to dial this boy way back. He thinks he's freaking Caesar.

We shall see, Lake.

This guy has now dynamited his own party. The fallout is getting worse by the day. Now you've got Democrats trying to craft plans to save their behinds in the midterms. No thanks to the 'leader' of their party.

He needs to take a lesson from Julius Caesar. You can't make enemies of the people AND both sides of Congress. Do that, and your ass is grass.

Maybe he can do that with most of the low I.Q. Dims, but the other side never trusted him to begin with, and never will.

“I think it's legitimate for them to expect me to have to win back some credibility on this health care law,” said Obama. “That's on me."

"...Therefore, I'm issuing an executive order to fully restore my credibility as of noon tomorrow."

You know I didn’t mean to hurt you baby.
I wouldn’t hurt you for the world ...
That would be like hurting me.

OK. Enough talking about me and my needs.
What do *you* think about me and my needs?

I think the latter is part of the former and, yes, he is. IMO he jumped a purple polka-dotted shark today. Give the nation a couple of days for the shock and normalcy bias to wear off and this ought to get good.
