Dude. At what point will you allow his "benefit of a doubt" to expire? THEY KNEW THIS WAS GOING TO HAPPEN.

You would have to take a gigantic gulp of kool-aid to believe that Obama honestly had no idea about the cancellations.. or that he somehow misspoke.
Like this much of a gulp:

Who wrote that article? What a fucking tool bag.
Chemical companies disposing of toxic waste by dumping it in the river affects a lot of people, not one individual. Having an intact windshield and working brake lights affects other people than just the driver as well. Why are we having these comparisons?
A better analogy would be if you were happy with your cable internet plan then Obamanet was signed into law saying you "needed" internet speeds that were 10 times higher so the cable cable canceled your plan and said "But don't worry you can have 10 times the speed you didn't need before! At only 4 times the cost!"
Oh and if you didn't get a more expensive internet plan then you would have to pay a fine whereas before you could drop your internet plan at any time.
So the insurance cancellations are all a big sham by insurance companies so they can not get paid by their customers and then become part of Obamacare so that people HAVE to pay for the insurance anyway except under Obamacare it's mandatory and they can charge more?
Got it.
The Obama administration plans to push back by a month the second-year start of enrollment in its health program to give insurers more time to adjust to growing pains in the U.S. law, a move that may stave off higher premiums before the 2014 congressional elections.
The enrollment period, previously scheduled to begin Oct. 15, 2014, will now start Nov. 15, said an official with the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services who asked not to be identified because the decision isn’t public. The change is important to insurers that need more time to evaluate the first year of the government-run marketplaces.
Technical problems are undermining efforts to attract a broad array of customers to the new markets, a prerequisite to keeping plans affordable in the long run. Keeping prices from spiking next year is “absolutely critical” for President Barack Obama if he wants to preserve his signature legislative achievement, said Ana Gupte, a Leerink Swann & Co. analyst.
