God forbid they hear the truth.

President Obama on Thursday insisted that his under-fire health care blueprint is working just as planned, taking to the White House bully pulpit to defuse growing questions about the soundness of his signature legislative achievement.

The president stepped up his defense of the Affordable Care Act, as Republicans focus on his administration delaying until 2015 the requirement that employers provide insurance coverage to their workers or pay a fine.

Obama looked to paint his GOP rivals as so dead set on derailing the health law that they are ignoring its benefits.

“Yesterday, despite all the evidence that the law is working the way it was supposed to for middle-class Americans, Republicans in the House of Representatives voted for nearly the 40th time to dismantle it,” he said. “We’ve got a lot of problems in this country. There’s a lot of work that Congress needs to do … get a farm bill passed, get immigration reform done, make sure we’ve got a budget in place.” […]

Obama told his supporters on Thursday to ignore arguments coming from conservatives.

“What I’ve heard is the same old song and dance,” Obama said, vowing to “blow through that stuff and just keep on doing the right thing for the American people.”
