Obama campaign website: “Any American will have the opportunity to enroll in [a] new public plan.” |
|
http://www.barackobama.com/pdf/issues/HealthCareFullPlan.pdfPage 5, point (2) Through the Exchange, any American will have the opportunity to enroll in the new public plan or an approved private plan, and income-based sliding scale tax credits will be provided for people and families who need it. ==== If this does not indicate that he campaigned on a "new public plan", do correct.

52. Again. Maybe by 'public plan' he meant that the 'public plan' would be a 'private plan'. |

administered for healthcare denying health insurance companies with fat checks coming directly from the U.S. Treasury. Depends on your definition of 'is' or 'was'or 'backtrack'..or 'lie' is.

Edited on Thu Dec-24-09 10:18 PM by still_one
and then to make everyone happy, how about vetoing the bill because it doesn't have a public option. Yeah, that's the ticket. I am sure that would help us in 2010, and 2012, because the news media, whose insights have been so accurate, tell us how the American public hates this bill, and this would make us get healthcare much quicker
Of course, whether he campaigned for it or not is not the issue, because we all know in our heart that he could have forced nelson, lieberman, lincoln, and others to beg for the public option
Yeah, Obama is just a tool of the corporations. Boy did he fool them all by being a community organizer and associating with terrorists.
I can hardly wait until we find another quote where he mis-spoke, oh wait, I mean lied, as though we all are so virtuous, how dare he cross that line of being human.

but i still think he should hold a press conference and apologize. he got caught in a lie and instead of owning up to it he tried to pretend he hadn't lied. so even if he apologizes and doesn't mean it at least he doesn't look as arrogant. let me add i'm not defending him or cheerleading here, just what i think would be effective damage control in response to the poster that asked what he should do now.

26. It hurts when someone you trust lies to you |
|
the natural reaction is to deny the deed - to find some way to prove that it never happened. However, in this case the lie has been exposed, and it is undeniable now.
It's time to accept that fact and move on, in whatever direction you're heading. Politicians specialize in half-truths, implication (how many people STILL believe Saddam Hussein was involved in the 911 terrorist murders? The Bush administration NEVER came out and claimed that) and yes, outright lies. We vote for these people anyway, and we support them as the "lesser evil" if nothing else. It's not new, but what's tiresome to me at least is the head in the sand denial.
The deed has been done. It really is time to accept this fact and move on.

29. If we are only talking about this, I agree with you, however, I do not think you can ignore |
|
the other comments that have been thrown back and forth. In other words, this event isn't in a vacumm
Other accusations have also been used, and not all the accusation are valid. In other words they represent an opinion, not a fact, so when this item comes forth, as you said the natural reaction is to deny the deed, but since the atmosphere is pretty charged with other things, this should be no surprise, at least not for me, and I take it you also
Even in your response you word our choices as the "lesser evil", however, that is how you may view, and not necessarily me or others. That of course is subjective, and not the same thing as a mis-statement or lie which is recorded.
We can even debate on degress of lies? For the purest, any lie in any form is bad? However, would a lie in order to save someone be bad?
I am just saying we all have different values and standards, and that is what makes the world go around

33. It's really quite simple in this case |
|
our President told a lie, and a fairly important and significant one. I did not at first wish to believe that he had done so, but the facts do not permit of another interpretation, unfortunately.
This was not a "no, I do not have any Tutsi tribe members hidden in my house" sort of lie - it was entirely the other kind. If someone believes this was a justifiable lie, and that our President had every right to tell it, that would represent a different set of values. However, to hotly deny at this point that he lied to us, is no longer a defensible position.
Ugh... I'm tired of this word in association with the man I voted to elect as our President. I hope very sincerely that this is an aberration on his part and that it will not be repeated.

Emotional atmosphere?
Jeez -- how Rovian -- take a situation where someone points out a very OBVIOUS *LIE*, with not only written interviews but actual VIDEOTAPE of that LIE -- and the only people getting *emotional* are the Obama groupies that then spend hours posting little tantrums and *I was there so I know he didn't lie, neener neener* poutrage postings.
GROW UP. All of you.
When called on your bullshit you start talking about *free speech* -- but that is conveniently forgotten when differing opinions are voiced. And then YOU act all put upon when you're called on your BS tactics.
Grow up or go get meds -- because it's quite obvious that you are either paid shills for someone, or you are emotionally unstable.
Childish tactics that were born in free-republic being used here by *so called* democrats. Sad. Truly sickening.

NO. If you read my post, I was directing at a specific post, NOT YOURS, who was characterizing me a certain way. You don't like it, fine, you can express your views to me anyway you see fit, that is YOUR right
I am not going to call your tactics "BS" or "bullshit" or any of the other so-called tactics that you say I am using. NOT ONCE DID I SAY OBAMA DID NOT LIE
and if I add a little humor to a post on another thread, which was just a joke, and had nothing to do with this topic, and you get uptight on that, I find it laughable that you say I should grow up or get meds.
You call me a shrill or emotionally unstable.
I think your comments speak for themselves
You want discuss something with me fine, but calling me names, what does that accomplish?

If he followed his promise strictly, he'd have to veto this for not having a public option and having a mandate. That wouldn't be best for the country. And now he has a plan much like Hillary's. How a Hillary supporter could have a problem with this?

No one's saying he lied because he failed to deliver a PO -- they're pointing out, and are backed up by UNDENIABLE VIDEO EVIDENCE, that he lied when he said he didn't campaign on one. He did. Period. No amount of denial can change the demonstrable fact.

http://yeswestillcan.org/FDR said "I agree with you--make me do it." Let's make Barack and Rahm do what we sent them to do in the first place.

61. Yep. He flat-out lied to our faces. He had no shame whatsoever in doing so. |

I was already done with him, but this made others I know throw up their hands and say "fuck it" too.
We don't like being lied to at all.
