Obamacare: “Why, sometimes I've believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast."

 

George: he gave cynics a good name

Yes sir, here’s another one of Barry’s throw away lines that we HOPED would stay down that  old Obamacare memory hole:

“If you misrepresent what’s in this plan, we will call you out.” - Barack Obama, 2009

click to watch     

Ditto, this part of the same speech, where Big Guy looked Congress and the American people in the eye and dismissed these “bogus claims” about Obamacare as lies:

1. that there would be “death” panels: (there will be)
2. that Obamacare would cover illegal aliens: (mostly a lie; although it’s “complicated”) – note:  while the term “illegal aliens” has been banned at Berkeley, it’s still ok in those parts of the country where the First Amendment is recognized.
3. that Obamacare would not fund abortions (do you mean technically, or practically?)

So in case you were beginning to worry that Big Guy gets all of his information the same way you do, on television, here are several documented things that he knew before he ever even said it on TV.

So today I’m launching a new game show based on contradictory Democratic Talking Points: I’m calling it “Reconcile This!”

The object of the game is to find a fun way to explain away two seemingly mutually exclusive positions taken by the same side/person. The first person to do so on the Sunday Morning shows wins.

Here’s an example:

H/T Gateway Pundit - twice

So…here’s the dilemma: the fact that 10 million people will lose their healthcare coverage under Obamacare is something else Big Guy did NOT learn by watching the news. He knew about it when he was talking to Eric Cantor way back in 2010. And yet, he continued to make that promise right up till the moment that he “was burned by a website?”

How on earth do you “Reconcile This?”

For conundrums of this magnitude, we must return to the source document of the rabbit hole conspiracy: Chapter 5, Wool and Water, to be precise:

Alice laughed. "There's no use trying," she said: "one can't believe impossible things."

"I daresay you haven't had much practice," said the Queen. "When I was your age, I always did it for half-an-hour a day.’

Nothing is impossible, dude, if you dream big.

“Why, sometimes I've believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast."

Sure you can keep your healthcare plan, now can I just eat my waffle?

Whoo-hoo! I win! Welcome aboard the Obamacare Rabbit Hole; we hope you enjoy your flight!

“ And after we put everyone into this healthcare hole, we’ll just shrink everything down so its one-size-fits-all.” “OK, boss”

 

The shop seemed to be full of all manner of curious things -- but the oddest part of it all was, that whenever she looked hard at any shelf, to make out exactly what it had on it, that particular shelf was always quite empty.

It’s like that with socialized medicine too

So remember, no matter what your government tells you, don’t take the brown acid!

If you do, you’re just going to end up with the blue pill instead.

Fairy Tales Can Come True, That’s the Bad News

Lady M beckoned and Hollywood’s heavy weights responded: they showed up at the White House yesterday for a workshop on how to get a job in the movies. Practical advice in the age of Obama.

Drama ensued.

'I don’t know about you guys, but I was listening backstage, and I just wanted to put my ball gown on and twirl and twirl.' – Michelle Obama

 

I think we could use a little travelling music about now: (Click button to play)

Young At Heart: Frank Sinatra

Fairy tales can come true, it can happen to you
If you're young at heart

For it's hard, you will find, to be narrow of mind
If you're young at heart

You can go to extremes with impossible schemes

You can laugh when your dreams fall apart at the seams

 

 

And life gets more exciting with each passing day
And love is either in your heart or on it's way

 

Don't you know that it's worth every treasure on earth
To be young at heart

 

 
For as rich as you are it's much better by far
To be young at heart

 

And if you should survive to 105
Look at all you'll derive out of being alive

 

 

Then here is the best part, you have a head start
If you are among the very young at heart

 

And if you should survive to 105
Look at all you'll derive out of being alive

 

Then here is the best part, you have a head start
If you are among the very young at heart

 

Twerking: only for the young, or young at heart.

 

You’re welcome. Now get out there and have a nice weekend.

Some people have An Army of Davids; We have An Army of Pinocchios

While it’s true that new technology has created an Army of Davids empowered to beat Big Media and Big Government, never misunderestimate the power of OUR Army of Pinnocchios: the little people who are willing to go out there every day and lie for you. They are, by far, our unsung heroes; the hardest working people in Big Media and Big Government.

In a show of gratitude Barry himself went on TV last night with Chuck Todd to acknowledge their efforts.

After this week’s polling showed that nobody was buying the big lie, or the lie about the big lie, the Big Brains decided there was nothing left other than the hollow apology, so last night Big Guy finally apologized for welching on the promise he made publically at least 36 times before saying that he didn’t really say what he said. (“Welching” –  how did that slip past my “lexicon of political correctness” I wonder?)

Thanks for your heartfelt apology, Mr. President: and BTW, nice creases!

"I am sorry that they are finding themselves in this situation based on assurances they got from me," he told NBC News in an exclusive interview at the White House.

It was the presidential equivalent of the celebrity non-apology apology: “I’m sorry if anyone was offended by my remarks.”

Anyway, I hope the rest of the Pinocchio Team has received the official “I’m sorry we weren’t clear” memo so they can stop perpetuating the lie and move on to other issues requiring their attention.

Because frankly, at the rate we’re racking up these awards - 8 Pinocchios and 1 Pants on Fire in the past month alone -

                

pretty soon our credibility might begin to suffer.

But the distortions and broken promises have now become so frequent that many at home and abroad are finally tuning out the president. Almost nothing promised about the Affordable Care Act is proving true. Contrary to presidential assurances, Obamacare has not lowered premiums or deductibles. It will not reduce the deficit or improve business competitiveness. It really will alter existing health plans and in some cases lead to their cancellation. Signing up is certainly not as easy as buying something online on Amazon..

Pretty soon.

Anyway, like I said, I hope the team got the memo. Because poor little Debbie is getting so tongue-tied trying to defend the indefensible that people are beginning to make fun of her. I know – hard to imagine, butt they are. It’s almost crossed over the line into outright bullying.

Here’s DWS’s latest attempt to explain that neither she nor BO misled anyone about Obamacare. Unfortunately, as you’ll see at 1:09, either TOTUS pulled a little trick on her, or she needs to get a new prescription – for her contact lenses, I mean.

Are you smarter than a 5th grader?

Boy, you’d think that one of the smartest women in America wouldn’t be so easily “mizzled” (pronounced, according to Ms.DWS, “mizz-uld”) by a simple word like “misled” on the teleprompter.  Especially since it was in the context of explaining how neither she nor Barry, well, you know…misled the American people. And man, it’s not even one of those $100 words like “corpsman.”

Anyhoo, that seemed to open the Alinsky-on-the-Right-gates. For example, look at this comment from John Holliday on YouTube:

First, BS-NBC gives her the questions and the answers. Then they obama* her responses for her and she still can’t get them right. What a clown.

*to “obama” –verb- put answers on a teleprompter because you’re too stupid to think for yourself.

You know, that’s just mean. And besides, TOTUS now spells out all the tough words like “misled” phonetically – hmmm; you don’t suppose that’s what they did for Little Debbie do you? “Mizz–led” – only with the em-fa-sis on the wrong sil-ah-bull?

Anyway regarding Little Debbie’s repetitious “at the end of the day” remark: not only has this been on Greg Gutfeld’s “banned phrase” list for over a year, butt – and again, I’m quoting a commenter - “this is the end of the day, and we’re all f***ed.”

So okay, remind me again: which one of these women is the dumb one?

“The Democrats promise that a government health care system will reduce the cost of health care, but as the economist Thomas Sowell has pointed out, government health care will not reduce the cost; it will simply refuse to pay the cost. And who will suffer the most when they ration care? The sick, the elderly, and the disabled, of course. The America I know and love is not one in which my parents or my baby with Down Syndrome will have to stand in front of Obama’s ‘death panel’ so his bureaucrats can decide, based on a subjective judgment of their ‘level of productivity in society,’ whether they are worthy of health care. Such a system is downright evil.”  - Sarah Palin without a teleprompter

 

“At the end of the day, uh, uh, Americans were, were, were not, not only not mild, myzeld by the president, the overwhelming majority of Americans are already insured.” Debbie Wasserman Schultz – DNC Chairwoman, with teleprompter

In fairness to Ms.DWS, all that spinning probably does makes you a little dizzy, which makes it harder to read (read “reed” not “red” – see how tricky this can get?). From where I sit, it sounds like the whole team is feeling a little let down, and mizzled. Do you know what we need about now? We need a little team spirit!

So let’s hear it, cheerleaders: “Schlemiel! Schle-myzel! (H/T Twitchy) Obamacare mizz-underestimated!”

I hear we’re going to take a clue from the Reverend Al and try to turn this sucker into a positive.

“Mizzled We Much” – spread it around because all we have working this side of the aisle is An Army of Davids. Big Guy’s team has a whole Army of Pinocchios.

“And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony” Revelation 12:11

Wow!  Even our senate lapdogs are beginning to bare their teeth.

OK, who brought the props?

Kitty dropped by to chat about Obamacare and they immediately started bringing up embarrassing issues about Healthcare.gov like those “ginormous security holes”

Navigators needed: Apply Today!

and the “mini-ormously small number of people actually enrolling in Obamacare.

Butt we’re counting every one of them!

At least they weren’t talking about Big Guy’s “little white mis-misrememberings,” so I think we’re making progress.

And did you see how smoothly Kitty denied knowing anything about the big old security black holes in Healthcare.gov. Even though we now have documented proof that we knew about them since last April. 

Kitty wore her lucky eagle pin for the hearings. It didn’t help that it looked like it was laying a big old egg.

It sure is a lot easier to fearlessly testify any which way you want in front of our lapdog controlled Senate. Unlike the enemy held House, the Senate didn’t put us under oath and make us swear tell the truth. That little bit of theatrics always casts a shadow over things. And if you don’t believe me, ask Martha if it’s a good idea to lie to the Feds:

So, let’s table the "alleged “security holes” for now and talk about our grand enrollment initiative. Almost no-bod-y is signing up for Obamacare, and the few who are signing up are choosing the “absolutely free!” Medicaid option. Needless to say, this isn’t putting anymore green in our big tax machine - if you know what I mean. Seriously, how were we supposed to know that all the young people that we were counting on to make this sucker system work were unemployed and eligible for subsidies and Medicaid?

Thanks, Obamacare!

You’re welcome! I love you back!

So, we are launching a new initiative, the “Sign-Up Challenge” (SUC) to find those 30-40 million people we said were champing at the bit to buy Obamacare plans, and get them registered to vote as good Democrats  enrolled in a quality, affordable, Obamacare plan.

Kitty described for the Senate panel the results of our SUC effort so far:

“Chairman Baucus, Ranking RINO Hatch; we found a family of 12 in Tijuana, who will be able to get quality health care insurance, for the first time, through our Medicaid option as soon as they sneak across the border. We are finding millions more throughout Mexico, Nicaragua, Guatemala and other Latin American states who will also be eligible for these benefits. As soon as they get here.

Some have expressed concerns regarding their ability to get safely across the border, and we are working closely with Homeland Security’s Border Patrol to ensure that they arrive safely, with adequate water, and are quickly directed to the nearest Obamacare navigator to facilitate their enrollment and voter registration.”*

So that should be helpful, all around.

Meanwhile, back at the Big White House, Lady M was busy celebrating one of our quintessentially American feasts: Diwali.

The Hindu festival of lights. Don’t tell Lady M though, she thinks it’s some sort of a Native American festival.

Although the Bollywood class in the East Room should have been a clue:

Oh…oh…oh no! I’m having…some sort of a malfunction:

Or worse yet, flashbacks:

 

I simply must get in for my regularly scheduled upgrades and security scans.

Please! Make it stop!

We’re all Injuns now!

*Legal Disclaimer: My Attorneys advise me that I must disclose that the “testimony” detailed in the preceding article is not actual testimony. I made it up.
