Anyone remember President Obama say in 2009, when he was pushing for the passage of his Affordable Health Care Act, that he would NOT sign a bill that would raise health care costs, premiums, and/or the national debt?  It was the same time he claimed to have “pulled this economy back from the brink.”

And here’s what you need to know.  First, I will not sign a plan that adds one dime to our deficits — either now or in the future.  (Applause.)  I will not sign it if it adds one dime to the deficit, now or in the future, period.  And to prove that I’m serious, there will be a provision in this plan that requires us to come forward with more spending cuts if the savings we promised don’t materialize. {emphasis added}

The pitch was that Obamacare was going to cost $940 billion over ten years.  The CBO this week revised the number to $1.4 trillion over nine years.  And when they factor a full ten years of spending in Obamacare, then the total cost will be over $2 trillion.

All of which means that you could expect President Obama to call for the repeal of Obamacare himself. That is, if he is not a lying Marxist.
