No. I acknowledge that Obama and his people didn't fully elaborate. He told the truth partially that people will be able to keep their policies assuming they met certain standards. He should have explained things better. I think Obama tried to simplyfy things too much with his messaging on this.
The Thread is correct The Pres. wont be hurt. He will not be running for office again.
A president's second term is hard enough as it is, but this debacle assures that virtually nothing left on his agenda will get accomplished before he leaves office. He has also given the Republican party the ammunition they needed to get back in the game.

No I dont think that will be correct. 24billion lost in 3 weeks of a shut down and 900,000 jobs lost because the Republicans can only vote no.
He still misled the public greatly. And I for one am not happy to see the President do that. And he continues the line of 'if you like your plan, you can keep your plan' even to this day. Very disappointing.
Yes it is hard to believe he doubled down by repeating the same rhetoric which is clearly not true.
Not only does he not take responsibility, but he never even fires the incompetent people he hired to begin with.
I guess to fire them or demand their resignation would be admitting he made a mistake in the first place, so that is not an option.

2014 will be an interesting election year.
I'm waiting for some liberal kook to tell me how shutting down the government, actually cost $24B more, than had they left it open.. Or is it more likely that the $24B "cost" hasnt been offset by the SAVINGS and you are just repeating some stupid figure you "heard"..
Yep, I bet thats it, because anyone who thinks 900K jobs were "lost" because of the shut down, really should have their voting rights revoked.
