and once upon a time, obama was against the individual mandate. he took ol' hillary to task back when they were both vying for the democratic nomination for daring to suggest such a thing. boy, he changed his tune.
but then he also changed his tune on many other things.
gitmo
bushes tax cuts
having a transparent administration
not kowtowing to big business (look at the deals cut with pharma on the ppuca)
then there was his 'the economy is the #1 priority' line of bs. yeah, then he turned around and made health care the big priority. all that work, and the thing is most likely going right down the drain on thursday.
it's not that he's a liar, it's that he's a politician. no hope of change, pols are pols first, last and always. the shame is that some suckers believed him.
