What. A. Worm.
Obama adviser David Axelrod’s tweet is about as desperate and pitiful as it gets, but it’s a question that is easily answered:
@davidaxelrod Why would they say that since the Pres said we could keep our plans if we wanted. #LIAR

And what would the White House and Axelrod’s response have been a few months ago if insurance companies sent their customers letters informing them that Obama’s “if you like your plan you can keep your plan, period” promise was a lie?

.@davidaxelrod You know what I bet they didn't say? "YOU CAN KEEP IT. PERIOD."

If they were “junk policies,” how come so many people are furious because they’re losing them and being forced into more expensive options?
@davidaxelrod Mine was not junk! Worked perfectly for me and my family.

@davidaxelrod Junk policy=one consumers want, Obama doesn't want them to have. Soviet style thinking: whatever not mandatory is forbidden.

@davidaxelrod @philipaklein Considering your "solution" costs more and covers less, who's the one peddling junk policies?

Criticism of Axelrod was swift, massive and necessary:

@davidaxelrod I wonder how many people you knew would lose their long standing policies before Obama signed ACA

@exjon @davidaxelrod yes citizens are too stupid to know what's good for them before Obamacare.

@davidaxelrod Your attitude and that of the administration towards those whose plans have been canceled is totally callous.

@davidaxelrod Says the guy who knew the President was lying to the American people about his shitty ACA law and applauded him for it

@davidaxelrod Want to know how many times President Obama told Americans they would have to switch? 0.

The only way David Axelrod will have a positive effect on the number of insured Americans is if he can figure out a way to turn BS into health insurance.
