'Blatant lie’: You have to see what Obama's saying now about O-care premiums

Think your health insurance has gone up over #Obamacare? @POTUS says you’re wrong. Evidently you’re too stupid… http://t.co/MniReLSGUN

President Obama fielded some questions during an #AskPOTUS session today. Here’s just one:

@POTUS I've heard people say premiums are skyrocketing. Any truth to that? #AskPOTUS

Obama tried to alleviate concerns:

not true – like last year, insurers request premium hikes, but must be approved; expect final increases to be less https://t.co/WfJI2AOLkP

— President Obama (@POTUS44) July 1, 2015

For what it’s worth, that claim is from the same president who promised “if you like your plan you can keep your plan.”

Um…every year since 2010, my premium has gone up double digit percentage points. @POTUS

@POTUS So… true, actually? Premiums going up?

But wait, didn’t Obama promise Americans would save money on their premiums if Obamacare became law?

It’s almost like he was never truthful about any aspect of Obamacare.

Here’s a fine summary of many of the questions served up at #AskPOTUS:

Seriously. What the hell? #AskPOTUS @POTUS
