Menarik juga membaca ada yg mengungkat hal seperti ini lying ditengah pemerintahan President Trump yang lying kayak makan sehari tiga kali:). Claimed atau kampanye Obama "If you like your health care plan, you can keep it." sebenarnya secara prinsip atau garis besar benar. Pada waktu keluarnya Obamacare saya punya Blue shield/Blue cross dan tanpa ada masalah apapun saya tetap mempertahankan health plan itu (sekarang sudah ganti). Memang ada kasus mereka yg ganti healthplan baik sadar ataupun tidak sadar, pada waktu sign-up seharusnya waktu itu juga memilih health-plan, disana cukup banyak yg tidak memilih atau social worker yg memilihkan sehingga pd saatnya health-plan nya tidak sama lagi. Atau juga terjadi health-plan nya tidak/belum masuk ke Obamacare pada waktu itu, karena memang untuk ikut partisipasi ada ketentuan2 yg harus dipenuhi. Saya nonton debat Obama dan Mitt Romney tentang "act of terror" itu, lucu juga. Romney accused Obama lambat bertindak untuk mengatakan bom Benghazi sebagai tindakan teroris, Obama menjawab bahwa keesokan harinya setelah serangan Benghazi telah mengatakan tindakan itu sebagai "act of terror" dan lucunya juga moderator (cewek, dari CNN rasanya) menengahi memberikan fact check benar Obama mengatakan pada pidatonya sebagai "act of terror."

Tammy Baldwin, gubernatorial candidate Tony Evers and others. Obama accused Republicans of lying about health care, namely that GOP politicians would protect coverage of pre-existing conditions. “Listen throughout human history, certainly throughout American history, politicians have exaggerated, they make promises that they may try to fulfill but then it turns out to be harder than they expected,” Obama told the crowd assembled in Milwaukee. “They pump up the things that they did that are good.” TRENDING: Archaeologists Thrilled by Discovery of Ancient ‘Jesus Face’ Painting “They downplay the things that they did that aren’t so good.. They try to put a positive spin on things,” Obama continued. “But what we have not seen before, in our recent public life, at least, is politicians just blatantly, repeatedly, baldly, shamelessly lying.” Obama spun news, evaded questions, contradicted himself and made false statements a number of times while he was in office.

Obama’s calculation for his claim was based on “dubious math,” according to The Washington Post. Former-presidents John F Kennedy and George W. Bush signed larger tax cuts into law. When campaigning for his health care bill called the Affordable Care Act, Obama claimed, “If you like your health care plan, you can keep it.” After his bill passed, cancelation notices began pouring into at least two million Americans’ mailboxes because of a short cutoff to bring existing plans in under the new law and strict regulations written by Obama’s administration, The Washington Post reported. Terrorists attacked the U.S. consulate in Benghazi, Libya, on Sept. 11, 2012, killing four Americans including U.S. Ambassador Christopher Stevens. Obama and his administration downplayed the terrorist aspect of the attack in the immediate aftermath of the event, but the then-president later tried to spin his comments, saying, “the day after Benghazi happened, I acknowledged this was an act of terrorism.” Obama referred vaguely to an “act of terror” immediately after the attack, but “over a period of two weeks, given three opportunities in interviews to affirmatively agree that the Benghazi attack was a terrorist attack, the president obfuscated or ducked the question,” The Washington Post reported.
