Oh please!

He can claim whatever he wants.....

President Obama, in a heavily partisan speech defending his signature health care law, claimed Thursday "there's no widespread evidence" it is hurting jobs -- despite widespread reports that businesses are cutting back worker hours in order to avoid extra costs tied to the law.

So??? How can this President stand there, and boldly lie to the American public like this? There is ample evidence, that insurance costs are increased because of the ACA, (ie Obamacare). If you force the insurance companies to accept people with pre-existing conditions, no limits or caps, someone has to pay for all this. Now, don't get me wrong, I can understand someone with pre-existing conditions wanting to get covered, and in some cases, can agree that there should be some help for them, but seriously. The government has no money with the exception of taxes/fees/excise taxes for revenue. The Insurance companies have no money except that which it gets from the monies it collects from it's policyholders. That means the money comes out of our pockets.

MY insurance cost is going up 36% this year, and went up last year and the year before at a rate over 2x as much as any year previously.

So? How can this man stand there and say, it's not going to cost us any more money, we are going to pay $2500 less, and it's not affecting jobs?
