Over the last few days, there has been some grim amusement over one particular artifact of election-year pro-Obama media bias: the astounding PolitiFact “fact checks” that rated Obama’s ridiculous lie about keeping your health plan “half true.”
As the Weekly Standard recalls, they did it twice, in 2009 and 2012.
The very text of these “fact checks” makes it clear, to anyone capable of reasoning beyond the third-grade level, that the correct rating would be “false.”
You can only pretend it’s half-true by ignoring Obama’s emphatic, absolute promises that no one would have their insurance plan taken away – he occasionally emphasized this by adding “Period!” to the promise – and writing off the people who lose their insurance as an irrelevant statistical anomaly.
Media finally wakes up and notices that if you like your plan, you probably can't keep it | Human Events

See this is the problem.
Obama told every one you can keep your plan..PERIOD!
"If you like your doctor or health care plan, you can keep it.”

According to NBC News, as far back as July 2010 “the administration knew that more than 40 to 67 percent of those in the individual market would not be able to keep their plans, even if they liked them.”

So while this is a gigantic LIE to win the election by less then 3.4 million votes, THE BIGGEST LIE was used to pass ACA by just barely 7 yes votes!
But even today I listen to conservative commentators who use the biggest lie i.e. 30 to 46 million uninsured!

WHY???
Why in light that 10 million are not citizens! that leaves 36 million!

In light that 14 million all they need to do is REGISTER with Medicaid!... that leaves 22 million!

So why were 18 million people that make over $50,000 are under 34 who pay their OWN health expenses because their employers' plans were too much!

That leaves 4 million!
WHY is this BIGGEST LIE never acknowledge by even the conservative critics?

Is it just too embarrassing for any thinking person to admit ... I was wrong! There are truly on 4 million that want and need.. NOT 46 million!!!

Actually most do acknowledge the numbers are wrong.. But rather to argue over the numbers, they are more interested in arguing the overall program's problems.
 
Politi"fact" is nothing more than a leftist propaganda outlook seeking to further "the big lie". By putting the word fact in their title, they hope to deceive people into believing they are true, but they are nothing but a load of lies, crap, and liberal nonsense. They should be censored for their ridiculous acceptations.
 
Of course they did, just like the nyslimes, washingtoncompost, abcnbccbscnnnpr etc...
but don't you dare say there is left leaning BIAS in our media and the lamstream media is in the back pockets of the DNC

heads will spin and green slime will spew and they will call you a liar and throw out you listen to too much rush Limbaugh or something

Who makes up your "most"???
The reason to argue over the number 46 million NOT being uninsured but less then 4 million that WANT and NEED was because ACA was
passed by people that obviously DIDN'T know there were NOT 46 million truly uninsured!


Really if more people totally understood that even now Obama has reduced his number from 46 million (now that ACA passed) to 36 million
due to 10 million not citizens that the CENSUS bureau acknowledge!

Now tell me how competent the CMS is if they don't know that 14 million people qualified for Medicaid were falsely counted as uninsured!
Again that made up the 46 million!

Finally why didn't even conservatives defend the rights of 18 million people under 34 that make over $50k not to be forced to buy health insurance!

Add those numbers up and subtract from 46 million and it is 4 million!! NOT the highly greatly accepted even by Brit Hume the other night talking about
30 million uninsured... NOT even these talking heads comprehend the magnitude of the LIE that passed ACA by only 7 YES votes!

Doesn't make just common sense that there may have been many "YES" voters that would have VOTED no if they knew there were less the 4 million!

I just don't understand WHY this gigantic lie is even perpetuated by even conservatives!!!
