Obama stands by promise that "you can keep your plan" - CBS News
Amid reports of millions of Americans losing their insurance because of new Obamacare regulations, President Obama on Wednesday stood by his promise that those who liked their coverage before the Affordable Care Act became law could keep that coverage.
"If you had one of these substandard plans before the Affordable Care Act became law, and you liked that plan, you were able to keep it," the president said in Boston.
You could keep your insurance...UNTIL the ACA became law. Then you're screwed.
How many of you idiots are now going to say, "Yeah. Yeah, that's what he meant! Obviously!"
Of course, that's patently ridiculous. He said you could keep your insurance AFTER ACA was law.
Obama would love it if all of us were as stupid as most of his dependents. Of course, when he makes statements like the one you mentioned, he is talking to those who don't pay attention to what is really going on in this country.
Many of his useful idiots don't worry about things like insurance because they understand that they will be provided for courtesy of the evil tax payers. Even though they know many lost their insurance plans, they figure we all deserve it for having the nerve to be more successful than they have been.
Recently, liberals came out again with another idiotic idea based on the false assumption that everyone is stupid.
The claim is that minority success stories are so rare, so they don't want anyone to hear them. I guess they don't want successful minorities, like Herman Cain, Ben Carson or Walter Williams, giving other minorities any big ideas.
Liberals blame anyone and everyone but themselves for the failure of many minorities to succeed. When you understand that they need a large percent of the voters to be complete idiots to keep the liberal politicians in power, you understand why they do what they do.
Here we have them appeasing the uneducated and lazy. They are again attacking those who succeed by suggesting that it's unfair and they don't want anyone to hear about success. They hate it when people take charge of their own lives and do well. If they cared about the poor, they would hold up examples of achievers and encourage it rather than mocking it as if it's a bad thing.
The real question is why don't some elevate themselves and instead look to government for all the answers. This is where liberal programs have taken people down a dead end road.
I think becoming a doctor or CEO is unlikely after a lifetime of living on the doles like your parents and grandparents did. With poor conditions in our schools and too many teachers who would rather indoctrinate than teach, children of uneducated welfare parents have no role models.
Liberals want to keep it this way. Before anyone suggests that Obama is a role model, keep in mind that he has yet to encourage people to succeed without government. He has never worked in the private sector and is more interested in "taking care" of people, not seeing them as potential winners rather victims who cannot do anything for themselves.
One thing that may have inspired them was to hear how other poor minorities pulled themselves out of poverty and became successful. The left is taking action to prevent those stories from being told. They want stories of despair and people believing that turning to government and community organizers is the only hope. The left would rather that people didn't find the strength to look to themselves and ask how they can make their own lives better.
The best kept secret is that government doesn't create success stories, they only create dependence, and they want people to believe otherwise. An independent population does not want or require a nanny government. Free thinkers are enemies of the state. Few of the people who were 5th and 6th generation welfare recipients were ever enlightened and most never stop to think that government is wrong and that is the reason they have not advanced. The left prefers to tell them that it's the fault of the achievers, as if only so many are allowed to succeed and the rest are out of luck.
I'm sure the liberals will show up like good little Obamabots and spew some meaningless talking points, like it makes people feel bad when others do well. Instead of taking it as a lesson, they use it as an excuse for their own miserable failure. If people opt to stay on welfare instead of relying more on themselves, then the liberals have won.
