At this point there is no doubt President Obama knew with great specificity that millions of Americans would lose their health insurance coverage. It is intellectually obtuse to argue otherwise. The bigger question becomes “what now’?
President Barack Obama admitted in 2010 that 8 or 9 million Americans would lose their existing health insurance plans under Obamacare.
“The 8 to 9 million people that you refer to that might have to change their coverage — keep in mind out of the 300 million Americans that we’re talking about — would be folks who the CBO, Congressional Budget Office, estimates would find the deal in the exchange better,” Obama said to Rep. Eric Cantor at a February 25, 2010 White House summit on health insurance regulation. (link)
Every second that Democrats refuse to admit the construct for legislative passage was based on a false premise their credibility shrinks. Obamacare was sold around a false promise, passed on a series of false promises, and regulated by HHS to specifically present outcomes that were counter to the lies and promises. The outcomes were intended.
Now what?
