Isn’t that the truth!
In what could best be described as a “state of Obamacare” address, President Obama claimed that, as far as the ACA goes, everything is awesome:

For people who have seen the cancellation notices, premium increases and are being hit with the penalty at tax time, things aren’t as awesome:
@WhiteHouse Frightening how low your expectations are.

@WhiteHouse Barry, you forgot the millions of insured people who had their perfectly good insurance canceled. If you like your dr…..

@WhiteHouse kicking people off existing plans to force them into more expensive and less beneficial does not equal success.to normal people.

@WhiteHouse If #Obamacare was half as good as you keep telling us it is, you wouldn't have to keep telling us how good it is.

Does this quote expose that Obama had ~ zero faith in his 'Signature Legislation"? Or is it simply lies?— ⇜Vapid↭Echo⇝ (@VapidEcho) March 25, 2015

@WhiteHouse Don't forget the promised lower price of your health insurance. Oops, did I say that? My bad!

@WhiteHouse FACTS MATTER: 16.4 million is another BS derived Washington number, not reality: http://t.co/TUOiHNz9pR …

@WhiteHouse This is false. How can the President get away with false facts that pump up his agenda? Even worse, @cnn @nbc @cbs push.

@WhiteHouse of course the rates have dropped, it's illegal not to be insured! I like having insurance but I should not be fined if I don't!
— Cathy Fitzpatrick (@CFitzPat83) March 25, 2015
@WhiteHouse Most on Medicaid so paid for by tax payers,

@WhiteHouse Amazing how making something mandatory increases usage.

@WhiteHouse My experience with Ocare is substantially higher premiums and reduced access to care. There is a better way, just sayin

@jacobperry @WhiteHouse Because they keep putting off the worst parts. Everybody likes candy, wait till they administer the cod liver oil.
— Cooper's mom (@rwgranny) March 25, 2015
@WhiteHouse To your point, I suppose delaying key parts and ignoring the statutory reading has made it less awful
