When Barack Obama was pitching the Affordable Care Act, aka "Obamacare," we were promised to save $2,500 a year on our premiums and that we could keep our doctor or existing plan.
That was such a pile of BS that even PolitiFact ended up designating it their Lie of the Year.
Flashback: Our 2013 Lie of the Year was: 'If you like your health care plan, you can keep it' https://t.co/KSgq1pxQzf pic.twitter.com/E6HddJk9CL

"When the Dems have lost PolitiFact..."
Things in the health care department have gone downhill fast ever since this and you'll never get a congressional Democrat to admit it:
That's how it started. Now let's check in with how it's going...
It's amazing to see some of the same people who helped make the system worse now try to put themselves in a position to "fix" it. That's where Democrat Sen. Amy Klobuchar comes in:
Americans are standing on a health care cliff.

More than 20 million Americans could see their premiums double.
Doctors, nurses, rural Americans, patients, and families are speaking out.
This isn’t political theater. pic.twitter.com/PPhv4RMooZ
That's rich coming from one of the Democrats who helped push us up to that cliff by voting for the ironically titled Affordable Care Act (it's right up there with the Inflation Reduction Act when it comes to the deceptive name).
Follow up questions are coming in for Klobuchar.
A cliff, you say?

How’d we get to that cliff? Any specifics? https://t.co/50ekMamFK2
Naturally Klobuchar and the Dems are trying to blame Trump and Republicans.
P.J. O'Rourke once wrote "if you think health care is expensive now, just wait until you see what it costs when it's free," and those words couldn't be truer many years later. Many people keep voting for Democrats... why exactly?

Democrats created the health care cliff and pushed America to the edge with Obamacare. And Covid spending. And funding healthcare for illegal aliens through- hospital Medicaid payments. Stop pretending you don't know this. https://t.co/A5jsaTdGuV

I fully expect the Democrats to keep on pretending they don't know that (some of them are so dopey it's possible they actually don't know that).
