He Lied

Yes, President Obama lied regarding health insurance coverage for illegal immigrants. Why is this news?

This situation illustrates why it's extremely unfortunate that we have a "Constitutional scholar" who is also a Marxist in the White House. He knows the law and he knows the loopholes. President Obama knows that "under his plan" illegal immigrants will be covered: Constitutionally, there will be no way to exclude coverage for illegals. In addition, if mandates require workers to carry insurance (either paid for by employers or the employees themselves), and employers will be fined if they don't provide coverage, then illegal immigrants will obtain coverage. President Obama needs to start telling the truth for a change. The lies and prevarications are wearing on the nerves of many clear thinking Americans.

Did the White House actually state that the number of private insurers will shrink as the exchange takes hold? That might make it hard to "keep the doctor we have and the insurance we have if we we're satisfied with them". I'm guessing we'll be able to keep our current coverage the same way illegal immigrants won't be covered. This can only take place in the heads of the Progressives who are trying to market their fantasies for the consumption of the general public.
