Jay Carney said it on Monday.
He tried not to say it, but he admitted that some Americans would lose their health care plans.
"So it's true there are existing health care plans on the individual market that do not meet those minimum standards and therefore do not qualify for the Affordable Care Act."
WHAT?
Some Americans will lose their health care plans?
But Obama gave his word that NO ONE would lose their plans if they like them.
Obama said it again and again.
OBAMA: I know that there are millions of Americans who are content with their health care coverage. They like their plan and, most importantly, they value their relationship with their doctor. They trust you. And that means, no matter how we reform health care, we will keep this promise to the American people: 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.
"NO ONE WILL TAKE IT AWAY, NO MATTER WHAT."
Obama lied. He deceived the American people. Period.
With all due respect, what a lying sack of ****!
That's harsh, I know, but completely accurate. It's just so frustrating.
"[N]o matter how we reform health care, we will keep this promise to the American people: 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."
Rubbish!
Obama knew MILLIONS would lose their plans.
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.NOTE about this NBC story:
Four sources deeply involved in the Affordable Care Act tell NBC NEWS 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.”
Developing: NBC News Pulls Story Critical of Obama for Hidden Edit
UPDATE: About half an hour after reposting, the missing paragraph was re-edited into the story.
OK, Leftists, explain.
Explain Obama's lies. Don't make lame excuses for him. Don't be enablers.
FACT: nothing on this vodka bottle says "puke in alley." MT @vj44 FACT: Nothing in #Obamacare forces people out of their health plans.

If you like your health care plan, "NO ONE WILL TAKE IT AWAY, NO MATTER WHAT."
Liar. Obama is a liar.
I want to hear Obama say the words.
I want Obama to get on TV and tell the American people that he did indeed know that MILLIONS would lose their current health care plans directly because of ObamaCare.
Carney is a hack.
I want to hear Obama say the words. I want him to admit he lied.
Liar.
