It’s not that they are asking the tough questions but if you mention Obamacare to Obama you are immediately into massive incompetence and dishonesty. They don’t want to push him on it, as this NBC interview shows, but once you say a thing there is no alternative but the mud will stick deep and fast.
Obama never apologises for what he did – admits no fault – but here is the closest approximation you might ever find. There’s an extended video at this link.
“I am sorry that they are finding themselves in this situation based on assurances they got from me,” he told NBC News in an exclusive interview at the White House.
“We’ve got to work hard to make sure that they know we hear them and we are going to do everything we can to deal with folks who find themselves in a tough position as a consequence of this.”
“This” not “me”. Mr Narcissism himself cannot find it within him to say that he is at fault for anything. Mere innocent bystander undermined by those people who work over there in the White House. But the lying doesn’t stop. From the same story:
After the initial NBC News report, the administration insisted that the president did not mislead Americans, arguing that the law could not have accounted for insurers altering existing plans after passage of the law.
How depraved can you get! The level of disgust amongst people who didn’t vote for him and are now losing their insurance may even be less than for the people who are losing their insurance and did vote for him. Not only has their health care been undermined, but they have been taken for fools, which is what they are.
