In all the hullabaloo about Obama’s 3000% healthcare comment, everyone missed this little gem from the same speech:
“And she upped her deductible last year to the minimum [sic], the highest possible deductible.”
This may have escaped under the radar, but it’s equally instructive as to what this President knows and doesn’t know about the real world.

Let the next civil war begin!
Dont forget the wonderful line where single payer will lower insurance costs by 3,000%
So, in other words employers will be paid to have employees on the government plan. Wow, this is going to erase all our trillions of debt in no time!!!
wow... and i was making fun of Bush for saying nucleah weapons
This is the nicest thing I can say about this Obamination: He is an incompetent douche who should admit his failure, stop talking, do nothing, and just enjoy living in the mansion until a new POTUS can be sworn in come Jan. 2013.
What a totally ignorant bozo.
You mean she upped her deductible to get the lowest possible fee? When BO speaks the world listens...some in awe and some in fear and some in between...
LIAR!!!
she UPPED to the MINIMUM (which means she didnt have a deductible to begin with?) which is the HIGHEST possible... ha?
This is excellent. I hope the people that voted for Obama feel happy about their choice. It was just an excellent choice.
Now before some idiot says that Bush said stupid things too... yeah he most certainly did... but Bush never truly hyped himself as an elite intellectual professor who knows everything and needs to talk down to us to make us understand what he is trying to do.
As I have said over and over again. He is no great orator-and he is evidently too busy playing golf, partying on Wednesday nights, and campaigning, to do the simplest edit/read-through of his staged readings, before he does them...that is the sign of someone who doesn't care about, or believe completely in what he is saying or doing!
