The Daily Sheeple October 22 2013
The Obamacare marketplace opened for business on October 1. So far, the launch of the $400 million website has been an abysmal failure, complete with glitches, crashes, and delays.
Americans are frustrated, but not just with the website’s functionality – it seems that many are quite shocked and disappointed by their new healthcare options (or lack thereof). Obama’s lies and broken promises are becoming more and more apparent.
In 2009, President Obama addressed the American Medical Association to present his ideas about healthcare reform.
So let me begin by saying this: I know that there are millions of Americans who are content with their health care coverage – they like their plan and they value their relationship with their doctor. And that means that no matter how we reform health care, we will keep this promise: If you like your doctor, you will be able to keep your doctor. Period. If you like your health care plan, you will be able to keep your health care plan. Period. No one will take it away. No matter what. My view is that health care reform should be guided by a simple principle: fix what’s broken and build on what works.
Here’s a video compilation of Obama making the same claims, over and over:

Liar, liar, pants on fire:
NBC News reports:
Thousands get health insurance cancellation notices
Health plans are sending hundreds of thousands of cancellation letters to people who buy their own coverage, frustrating some consumers who want to keep what they have and forcing others to buy more costly policies.
