The Patriot Post® · Three More Pinocchios for BO

The Washington Post recently awarded Barack Obama Four Pinnochios for this BIG lie: “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.” This week, the White House received three more Pinocchios for blaming insurers on millions of health plan cancelation notices. Press Secretary Jay Carney recently asserted, “Insurance companies that chose to strip away benefits from existing plans in the interim, that canceled existing plans in the interim, they took away that grandfathering opportunity. And that’s a reality.” Actually, here’s the reality: “Blaming the insurance companies can only go so far,” explains Glenn Kessler. “The administration’s effort to pin the blame on insurance companies is a classic case of misdirection” – or, more accurately stated, a classic case of lying.
