ALL that is needed to prove this contention - that Barack Obama is the most despicable of bald-faced LIARS, to the people who look up to him most - is to get a video clip of him in the past few months pledging his support to public option health care reform at one of his recent public rallies, and contrast that with the video of Senator Max Baucus having doctors from SinglePayerAction.org ARRESTED out of his Senate Finance Committee health care "reform" hearings back in May of 2009 - WITHOUT the treacherous Obama White House LIFTING A FINGER for those doctors who had to put their careers on the line to protest the "Democrat" "leadership" tactic of 15 to 0, FIFTEEN to ZERO EXCLUSION of Single Payer, or even Public Option, advocates from EVEN THE MOST PRELIMINARAY "health care reform" hearings (which the traitorous, treacherous, & CORRUPT Senate Democrats told us HAD to be in the committee of THE senator, Max Baucus, MOST BRIBED by "health" insurance industry donations in all of the Senate.)
THE FIX WAS IN back in MAY of 2009, and BARACK OBAMA has been a BOLD FACED LYING, back-stabbing WEASEL ever since then.
The Democrats' scam becomes more transparent

All that [the Senate Democrsts' song-and-dance DELAY of 2009, invoking a Republican FILIBUSTER as AN EXCUSE to DO NOTHING about REAL health care reform - EVEN as Insurance companies were sending out DOUBLE DIGIT insurance premium rate hikes to MILLIONS of American families] was bad enough, but now the scam is getting even more extreme, more transparent. Faced with the dilemma of how they could possibly justify their year-long claimed support for the public option only now to fail to enact it, more and more Democratic Senators were pressured into signing a letter supporting the enactment of the public option through reconciliation; that number is now above 40, and is rapidly approaching 50. In other words, there is a serious possibility that the Senate might enact a public option if there is a vote on it, because it's very difficult for these Senators to vote "No" after pretending all year long -- on the record -- that they supported it. In fact, The Huffington Post's Ryan Grim yesterday wrote: "the votes appear to exist to include a public option. It's only a matter of will."
The one last hope for Senate Democratic leaders [to SABOTAGE the Public Option, and thereby BETRAY MILLIONS upon MILLIONS of Democratic voters and American families looking for, and IN DESPERATE NEED of RELIEF from INSURANCE INDUSTRY bloodsucking VAMPIRE "health care" EXTORTION] was to avoid a vote altogether on the public option, thereby relieving Senators of having to take a position and being exposed. But that trick would require the cooperation of all Senators -- any one Senator can introduce a public option amendment during the reconciliation and force a vote -- and it now seems that Bernie Sanders, to his great credit, is refusing to go along with the Democrats' sham and will do exactly that: ignore the wishes of the Senate leadership [that is, the TREACHEROUS, TRAITOROUS, PRETEND "Democratic" Senate "leadership" - at the INSTIGATION of the TREACHEROUS and SERIALLY LYING Barack Obama] and FORCE a roll call vote on the public option.[at, it must be said, the instigation of the SERIALLY LYING and TREACHEROUSLY backstabbing Barack Obama.]
So now what is to be done? They only need 50 votes, so they can't use the filibuster excuse. They don't seem able to prevent a vote, as they tried to do, because Sanders will force one. And it seems there aren't enough Senate Democrats willing to vote against the public option after publicly saying all year long they supported it, which means it might get 50 votes if a roll call vote is held. So what is the [TREACHEROUS, TREASONOUS, COWARDLY, CORRUPT, BRIBED and BOUGHT] Senate Democratic leadership now doing? They're whipping against the public option, which they pretended all year along to so vigorously support....
