'Tone-deaf mendacity': Lying WH invokes Christmas in outrageous Obamacare tweet

You couldn’t make this stuff up. As the pernicious Obamacare sinkhole continues to expand, taking more and more Americans down with it, the White House had the nerve to tweet this this afternoon:

Obama: "Christmas is no time for Congress to tell more than 1 million of these Americans that they’ll lose this insurance." #ABetterBargain

Unbe-freaking-lievable.

!!!! MT @WhiteHouse: "Christmas is no time for Congress to tell more than 1 million Americans they’ll lose this insurance." #ABetterBargain

SELF. AWARENESS. #FAIL. (That's three.) https://t.co/RTY6hGL5BE

To say that the Obama White House lacks self-awareness is to be generous. It really seems more and more like we’re dealing with a malicious administration that doesn’t give a second thought to lying through its rotten teeth.

I suppose when you've reached peak spin, this sort of tone-deaf mendacity comes naturally: http://t.co/GDfZhHsWPJ

Team Obama knew from the start that Americans would be losing their health insurance due to Obamacare. And even now, the White House is unwilling to admit that the number of people screwed is much, much higher than one million.

Silence from the White House about that.

We’ll close with a flashback:

Hilarious. That's exactly what a Dem Congress did a few years ago. At Christmas. https://t.co/RRWSDHUAOO

Oh, we remember.
