Obama - No teleprompter, no clue
Topics: Political News and commentariesArnold Ahlert on Obama's breathtaking cluelessness on the healthcare bill:
Healthcare conference caller from Maine: "Is this true? Will people be able to keep their insurance and will insurers be able to write new policies even though H.R. 3200 is passed?" President Barack Obama: "You know, I have to say that I am not familiar with the provision you are talking about."Is there anything more dangerous for this president than being without a scripted answer? Regarding the above quote, it is worth remembering that Mr. Obama has been doing his level best to completely revamp America's healthcare system as quickly as possible. That he would be unfamiliar about the provision that, as written, eventually puts private insurers out of business is breath-taking.
Is the president a) lying? b) so bereft of political acumen he was caught off guard? Or is it c) so arrogant, he considers the "details" of a trillion dollar budget-busting government take-over of the healthcare system irrelevant?
Considering this president's track record, I'll go with all of the above.
