Insurance cancellations; WH: 'It's True' Some Americans Won't Be Able to Keep Their Health Care Plan Under Obamacare

The Weekly Standard  "White House spokesman Jay Carney explained at today's briefing that "it's true" some Americans will not be able to keep their health care plan under Obamacare: 

"The journalist Ed Henry asked, "The president, when he was trying to get the law passed, repeatedly said, if you currently have health insurance you will be able to keep your plan. This morning David Axelrod was pressed on that point and said, the majority -- the vast majority -- will be able to keep their plans. He no longer works at the White House. From the podium, will you admit that when president said, if you have a plan, you'll get to keep it, that that was not true?"

"After some throat clearing, Carney said, "So it's true there are existing health care plans on the individual market that do not meet those minimum standards and therefore do not qualify for the Affordable Care Act.' "

Obama's reelection is now explained with that confession. There were rock concerts followed by the concertgoers being directed to polls close by for early voting. Democrats knew they were sweeping the low-information voters to their causes, no matter what the consequences to this nation.

NRO: No, You Can’t Keep It   "When and if the website is finally functioning, many of these people won’t like what they see. .... For millions of Americans, Obamacare will be an experience in plumbing the depths of the dishonesty of President Obama’s case for his signature domestic accomplishment."

Obama admin. knew millions could not keep their health insurance  "Four sources deeply involved in the Affordable Care Act tell NBC NEWS that 50 to 75 percent of the 14 million consumers who buy their insurance individually can expect to receive a “cancellation” letter or the equivalent over the next year because their existing policies don’t meet the standards mandated by the new health care law. One expert predicts that number could reach as high as 80 percent.....' ”  

Benghazi Report: First Western eyewitness in Benghazi to go public gives account of attack, warning signs

Fox News  via Lucianne  "The first Western eyewitness to the deadly Benghazi terror attacks has given an account of the seven-hour assault on the U.S. outpost in Libya and says Americans knew such an incident was inevitable.

"The witness -- a former British soldier who for decades helped protect U.S. diplomats and military leaders -- told CBS’ “60 Minutes” that Al Qaeda forces first attacked the U.S. Special Mission Compound in which Ambassador Christopher Stevens was killed. Then they launched a second attack on a secret CIA annex about a mile across the city.

“ 'They knew what they were doing,” the security guard told CBS. “That was a well-executed attack.' ”

Bill Whittle – Common Core Is Obamacare For Education (UPDATED)

American Glob  Government control over education just as Obamacare is control over our healthcare and our lifestyles.

 

Common Core – Teaching Alinsky to first graders   "Do first graders really need to learn how to use emotional words in writing to bring about social justice? Common Core thinks so."

 

 

UPDATE from the WaPo: Principal: "I was Naïve about Common Core"   "Here’s a powerful piece about how an award-winning principal went from being a Common Core supporter to an opponent. This was written by Carol Burris, principal of South Side High School in New York. She was named the 2010 New York State Outstanding Educator by the School Administrators Association of New York State. She is one of the co-authors of the principals’ letter against evaluating teachers by student test scores, which has been signed by 1,535 New York principals."

....

Recalling how she and her colleagues were once fully behind Common Core, she  confesses,
"I even co-authored a book, “Opening the Common Core,” on how to help schools meet that goal.  It is a book about rich curriculum and equitable teaching practices, not about testing and sanctions. We wrote it because we thought that the Common Core would be a student-centered reform based on principles of equity.

"I confess that I was naïve...."

How Many Have Enrolled in Obamacare?

Taegan Goddard's Political Wire  AP: "The Obama administration will face intense pressure next week to be more forthcoming about how many people have actually succeeded in enrolling for coverage in the new insurance markets. Medicare chief Marilyn Tavenner is to testify during a House hearing Tuesday, followed Wednesday by Sebelius before the House Energy and Commerce Committee."

"Meanwhile, the New York Times reports economists and policy wonks behind the Affordable Care Act worry that the technical problems bedeviling the federal portal could become much more than an inconvenience. If young applicants "decide to put off or give up on buying coverage, rising prices and even a destabilized insurance market could result.' "
