For anyone who wants to accuse President Obama of being dishonest in regards to the passage of Obamacare, let me remind you of something from the end of the last President's reign. The W. Bush administration supposedly lost millions of e-mails. Millions! They lost them off of the sending computer's e-mail program, off the cache on the sending computer, off the internet server/router, off the cache of the receiving computer and off the receiving computer's e-mail program. They said this with a straight face, insisting the e-mails were just lost.
This was no "ctrl-alt-del" mistake or cat running across a keyboard. A team of computer pros working around the clock for months had to have deleted all traces of these e-mails. E-mails dealing with Iraq, Al-Qeada, the Saudis, Katrina, the re-election campaign, strategy e-mails about legislation and correspondence with certain media outlets. The American people were told one of the most outlandish, easily provable lies ever, and the GOP acted as if it was just one big oopsie!
So a person who worked on Obamacare got a little too graphic in describing the sausage making that is writing major legislation. The program works when it isn't purposely derailed by agenda driven Republicans, but even under the harshest light, there is no comparison of the honesty ratings of the current and last President. The W. Bush administration was probably the most dishonest, deceitful and self-serving administration in US history. Harding is the only one giving him a run at that title.
FYI, no Federal level Republican office holder has called for a full investigation of the failures that lead to the Iraq War, which created more than 4000 dead American soldiers, more than 30,000 permanently injured soldiers and cost the US tax payers TRILLIONS. Not one.
