Charles Krauthammer: Obama’s Apology for Canceled Insurance Plans “Simply Appalling”

Obama Not a Big Man

(FOX News) Charles Krauthammer told viewers Thursday on FOX News ‘Special Report with Bret Baier’ that President Obama was “crystal clear” about individual health insurance under ObamaCare.

“He (President Obama) said, if you have your plan and like your plan you will keep your plan period,” Dr Charles Krauthammer a syndicated Washington Post columnist and FOX News contributor said. “The punctuation is the key here. No context, no caveats, no exceptions, that’s what the word period means. He couldn’t have been clearer and for him to pretend he wasn’t is simply appalling.”

In an interview on Thursday with NBC News President Obama told Americans who have had their health care plans canceled by insurers that he was sorry they  “are finding themselves in this situation based upon assurances they got from me,” and the Obama Administration officials “weren’t as clear as we needed to be.”

New Jersey Gov Christ Christie had advice for President Obama, Krauthammer said. “He said in an interview, I think it was last week, why don’t you just say, ‘we made a mistake and we’re sorry, we’re going to try to fix it. I think that would go a long way but I don’t think a president, this president is capable of ever saying that.”

Krauthammer also told viewers that the problems with the ObamaCare website has taken its toll.

“The president now is toxic,” Krauthammer said. “The thing is called ObamaCare, there is no running away from it. You see the president, you think about the policy and you know that it is a disaster and the problem for the Democrats is they are hostage to a bunch of Geeks working around, right now, late into the night trying to fix a system which is not just the glitches it talked about, the architecture, the underlying structure of it is wrong”
