“The fact that an adviser who was never on our staff expressed an opinion that I completely disagree with in terms of the voters is not a reflection on the actual process that was run,” Obama declared at a press conference here, speaking for the first time about the comments by MIT economist Jonathan Gruber.
When the president was asked whether he had intentionally misled the public in order to get the law passed, he replied: “No. I did not.”

"Misleading the public statements by Obama...
1) “I don’t have to explain to you that nearly 46 million Americans don’t have health insurance coverage today. In the wealthiest nation on Earth, 46 million of our fellow citizens have no coverage.”
YES YOU DID NEED to explain that AFTER ACA was passed YOU said there were 36 million!
Why because you "forgot" that the Census counted 10 million illegals as "uninsured"!
YES YOU DID NEED to explain..
why the Census admits 14 million people that Obama should have enrolled in Medicaid/SCHIP were falsely counted as uninsured! So that leaves 22 million!
Finally why should 18 million people under 34, that don't want health insurance be counted?
2)Remember these words???:
" I pledge we’ll lower premiums by up to $2,500 for a typical family per year….. We’ll do it by the end of my first term as President of the United States. If you like your health care plan, you can keep it. If you like the doctor you have, you can keep your doctor, too."
Twenty-five states using the federal enrollment portal on average have higher premiums this year for the most popular level of health insurance plans — called “silver” plans —
while nine states on average have lower prices this year for that level of coverage, according to a Washington Post analysis of federal data. New plans are typically slightly more expensive than existing ones, the analysis showed.
