Former Sen. Bob Kerrey said President Barack Obama must have known he was lying when he told Americans they could keep their insurance plans under his signature healthcare reform act.
“He had to know he was misleading the audience,” the Nebraska Democrat said about Obama’s pledge as he was touting his Affordable Care Act.
In an interview with the Daily Mail, he said, “‘On the other hand, he may have said it so many times that the spell-checker wasn’t in the room — the spell-checker, the fact-checker — somebody who says, ‘Excuse me, Mr. President, but I hope you know this.'”
Kerrey, who was a candidate for the Democratic presidential nomination in 1992, said Obama’s “promise” was never going to be carried out because “there were a million people out there with policies that, for one reason or another, run short of the minimum standard. I mean, they bought something cheaper.”

Kerrey finally remembering he was once a SEAL? And an American?
And just how much more pissed off are we expected to get? Is there ever a limit to their madness??
He didn’t just now figure this out. Somehow this disclosure will benefit Kerrey.
@Davey: Exactly. He must have premonitions of the coming citizen uprising.
Gosh, don’t recall ol’ Senator Bob saying anything about it at the time, when it mattered, now did we?
I knew it when his lips were moving!
But his lying is simply a result of incompentence, not any sort of malicious act. /s
But is Obama an “unusually good liar”, as Kerrey said of Slick Willie, or does the cock in his mouth tend to muddle the message?
It doesn’t change a thing does it Bob? We’re stuck with it and all you Democrats voted for it. You’ve done nothing to change it. I hate all of you!
…Never ceases to amaze me how all these
“Retired” Lib-Dems become wise to all the
lies and BS from their Party, once they
are out of the limelight, don’t have to
defend and protect their partners in crime!!!
A good DemocRAT is a mute one…
not really inspired by that pesky quotation – the only thing necessary for evil to triumph is for good men to do nothing
“Misleading” is the “progressive” term for shameless liar.
How BRAVE of him to speak up NOW… 🙄
