Unchallenged Bullshit

The outrageous audacity of Barack Obama never ceases to amaze.  Yesterday he held a news conference pompously declaring victory in the Health Care War by claiming 7.1 million people have signed up for ObamaCare as of March 31.  Did anyone notice yesterday was April Fool's Day?

Of course Obama doesn't disclose how many of those folks had to sign up because they lost their previous coverage because of ObamaCare.  Never mind that Mr. Obama promised that would not happen.  Those folks are most likely now paying substantially higher medical costs, which Mr. Obama also promised wouldn't happen.  Many people who were newly eligible for Medicare due to the new rules switched from previous policies and have been counted in the sign-up for ObamaCare.  It will also be interesting to see how many who signed up actually pay for it once they see the price.

Even when not necessarily lying, Obama seriously bends the truth.  The only credible measurement of ObamaCare's success is to find out the increase in the number of Americans now covered by health insurance that weren't prior to ObamaCare.  I would suspect that number is considerably less.  In fact, I bet that number is closer to zero than 7.1 million.

Given Barack Obama's actions to date in his presidency of routinely spitting on the graves of our founding fathers and his presidential predecessors, one can't help but wonder how long we have until he changes the Declaration of Independence to the Declaration of Dependence.
