Not only did Obama lie about keeping your plan, but he is also lying now, about cancellations affecting only about 5% of those insured.
He knew in 2010 even, that most employer insurance plans, not just the individual market plans, would be cancelled. Because Obama delayed the employer mandate (which delay was lawless and unconstitutional), he delayed those looming cancellations until the end of next year.
At the very time in the last few weeks, when Obama was arguing to us that the cancellations would only be affecting a small number or 5%, his Department of Justice was telling the federal court that most of the employer policies would be going away.
Great article by Andrew McCarthy.

Last Thursday, President Obama purported to undo the “Affordable” Care Act (ACA) mandates that he and congressional Democrats quite intentionally designed to force Americans off their health-insurance policies . . . notwithstanding the president’s promise, repeated over and over again since 2009, that Americans would be able to keep their health-insurance policies. In my weekend column, I argued that Obama’s latest unilateral diktat is lawless and transparently political. With each passing day, however, what becomes more breathtaking is the depth of systematic, calculated lying that went into the extensive — the criminal — Obamacare fraud.
