The Kings Speech
Posted on November 14, 2013
President Barack Obama pauses while speaking about his signature health care law, Thursday, Nov. 14, 2013, in the Brady Press Briefing Room of the White House in Washington. Bowing to pressure, President Barack Obama intends to permit continued sale of individual insurance plans that have been canceled because they failed to meet coverage standards under the health care law, officials said Thursday. (AP Photo/Charles Dharapak)President Obama held a press conference today to appease the critics of his Affordable Health Care Plan and head off a battle in Congress over a GOP bill that targets those who will lose their coverage because it fails to meet the new minimum standards.
In other words, its the usual song and dance between the President and Mr. Merlot in the House, and the media is milking it for all its worth.
Under the Klieg lights, Obama was apologetic about the snafu that will lead to thousands of cancelled policies, taking responsibility for the error and promising that cancelled policies would be extended a full year. He uttered the phrase we fumbled and dropped the ball repeatedly, as The Washington Post reports:
Pick your adjective. They all fit President Obamas tone during a surprisingly lengthy statement-turned-press conference in which he announced an administrative fix to make good on his if you like your plan, you can keep it pledge regarding the Affordable Care Act and repeatedly took the blame for the problems with the rollout of the law.He said he had fumbled the ball. Three times. He acknowledged he was unaware of the depth of the problems with Healthcare.gov. And, perhaps most tellingly, he repeated a line from his days on the campaign trail; I am not a perfect man and I will not be a perfect president, Obama said.All told, Obamas demeanor and his rhetoric represented a marked change for a president who has been typically unwilling to engage in the sort of navel-gazing introspection that the Washington political press corps loves and politicians loathe. And, for a President and an Administration who have come under considerable scrutiny from the White House press corps, the nearly hour-long talk-a-thon from the president was also a startling departure from past precedent.
But his humble recalcitrance didnt stop the assembled press corps from slicing him over his health care lie whenever they could.
Heres a sampling of the questions he faced (emphasis added):
Do you feel as though the flawed health care rollout has led to a breach in the public trust and confidence in government? And if so, how do you plan to resolve that?
You say, while the law was being debated, if you like your plan you can keep it. You said, after the law was implemented or signed, if you like your plan you can keep it. Americans believed you, sir, when you said that to them over and over.Do you not believe, sir, the American people deserve a deeper, more transparent accountability from you as to why you said that over and over when your own statistics published in the Federal Register alerted your policy staff and, I presume, you to the fact that millions of Americans would in fact probably fall into the very gap youre trying to administratively fix now?
Did you decide, sir, that the simple declaration was something the American people could handle, but this new honest answer you just gave now was something they couldnt handle, and you didnt trust the American people with the fuller truth?
The late, great (and never to be forgotten) Helen Thomas notwithstanding, where were these hard-hitting, truth-seeking reporters when Raisin Brain was sending our innocent servicemen and women into Iraq to fight a war that didnt exist, except in the boardrooms of Halliburton and Exxon-Mobile? Back in the days when Ari-the-Liar, Scottie-the-Duck, and Doublespeak Dana too much cappuccino Perino were at the podium (when Dim Son didnt dare meet the press)?
As Obama said, they wont report the AHA successes, only the mistakes. But thats the American News Machine for ya.

(16,529 posts)Hoping that everyone is well! My IMac died last week, my 5 speed manual transmission vehicle is down to 3 gears, and I'm waiting for the next thing to happen here, as I've been told they come in 3's.
The sons are betting on the dryer...I hope not.

(16,529 posts)We're fine here...we've been feeding a feral, intact male for about 6 months now. The girls, HAC and Taco are kinda tired of him, but it's chilly here so they come in early and less fights to break up! Big to you and the CA gang!
Gotta make another call to a local TNR organization here. He's calmer, will let me get within a foot of him, but I can't touch him.

(10,419 posts)I run into such nice people while walking Phyllis. Yesterday a 4th grade boy was walking home from school with his mom. He adored Phyllis & fed her chips & carrots. He then asked if Phyllis could come to visit. He took his notebook out of his backpack & wrote his address for us.
I was all
