Obama Knew Millions Could NOT Keep Their Health Insurance

He may be a historic president but will go down in history as The Liar-in-Chief 

Obama promised in 2009, “if you like your health plan, you will be able to keep your health plan,” And he was still saying it in 2012, “If you already have health insurance, you will keep your health insurance.”

 The real question that should be asked about Barack Obama is whether he was simply playing to win and therefore lying on purpose, or whether his statements about Obamacare were just another example of, as Obama once put it, "[when I spin it] I actually believe my own lies'' That my friends is the mark of a bad seed - a true liar.

    President Obama repeatedly assured Americans that after the Affordable Care Act became law, people who liked their health insurance would be able to keep it. But millions of Americans are getting or are about to get cancellation letters for their health insurance under Obamacare, say experts, and the Obama administration has known that for at least three years.
Four sources deeply involved in the Affordable Care Act say that 50 to 75 percent of the 14 million consumers who buy their insurance individually can expect to receive a “cancellation” letter or the equivalent over the next year because their existing policies don’t meet the standards mandated by the new health care law. One expert predicts that number could reach as high as 80 percent. And all say that many of those forced to buy pricier new policies will experience “sticker shock.”
