Did our illustrious Chief Executive actually propose the demise of private health insurance in favor of a national plan, or didn't he? And do his actual, spoken words mean what we think they do? We posted the video yesterday; it seems pretty clear that the President (and his cohorts) mean precisely that they intend to do away with private sector health insurance.
But the White House claims that The Obamaman was quoted out of context; according to WH SpokesCritter Linda Douglass, "nothing can be farther from the truth. You know the people who always try to SCARE people whenever you try to bring them health-insurance reform are at it again."
So which is it? Are those opposed to a gummint-run system simply fear-mongering? Or is there fire to go with all the smoke?
You be the judge.
