Heard on the news radio this morning that now you "might" be able to keep your existing health plan, as has been announced in the wake of all the cancellation notices people are receiving. Apparently it is the choice of the state and the healthcare provider to continue providing the plan after Obamacare became law. Guess the president forgot to mention that little fact or he didn't know!
He and everyone else know full well that those plans are long gone and not coming back. It's simply a political move to put the blame on insurance companies when they don't give those plans back. Furthermore, you can only "get your plan back" until 2014 (after the elections mind you) and no ins company is going to do that.
You can tell this whole thing is theater because he said it was an Executive "Action" (which is a fake Executive Order) and would veto any real legislation that was passed saying the same thing. It's all smoke and mirrors you just have to read between the lines and this whole "get your plan back" is one giant lie to appease the idiots who will vote for MORE of this in 2014.
Exactly. Obama is smart enough to surround himself will mindless sheep who are willing to take the fall for him. The latest example: Sebellius. They will let her stay in her position just long enough to make her take all the heat for this health care disaster, then appoint a Czar to take her place and Obama will be able to say he got rid of those responsible for the disaster.
I don't think they are mindless sheep. I believe they are ideologues and don't need to be told to fall in their sword for their cause. Mindless sheep wouldn't worry me as much. Radical ideologues in the "fourth branch" of government should be very troublesome for everyone.
Too true. That press conference the other day can be condensed to, "My plan (as all my plans are) is perfect. It's those darn evil insurance companies who are screwing it all up!" It almost made me car sick while I was listening.

Agree 100%. The fact that he was voted in twice and I don't think we're done by a long shot, is a sad sad reflection of the state of this union.

Nailed it. This allows the bastard-in-chief to blame someone else if things do not work out as flawlessly as he pictures in his own delusions...
