The 44th president apparently forgot that he promised Obamacare would lower premiums – and that it was a miserable failure.
In the final sprint to the midterm elections, former President Barack Obama has hit the campaign trail to stump for Democrat candidates.
One of his favorite talking points? Health insurance premiums, he says, are too high. Apparently, he doesn’t see the irony.
“We’ve got to make sure that nobody has to worry about high healthcare premiums,” Obama declared at a rally in Georgia recently. If that sounds familiar, it’s because it’s virtually word-for-word the same line Obama was feeding to audiences during his first campaign for president in 2008.
Perhaps the 44th president needs to be reminded that his signature legislative achievement (the one that literally bears his name) was sold to the American public as a cure-all to lower health insurance premiums. Or, perhaps he simply can’t cope with the fact that Obamacare is just as much of an ugly, dismal failure as his grotesque presidential library – a monstrosity that has turned the American healthcare system into a nightmare for virtually everyone.
Either way, voters should feel insulted at how stupid Obama apparently thinks they are. How many times do Democrats expect the public to buy the same lie?
The numbers bear out what a calamity Obamacare has been for American patients.
