Despite the fact that more and more Americans are convinced that the Obama healthcare plan is an economy killer, the doublespeak continues. AP Reports Obama used the “good” economic news yesterday to reiterate the claim that healthcare reform is of critical importance to reviving the economy.

Americans are smarter than this. What was a sneaking suspicion originally has become a mounting distrust of the concept that big government and skyrocketing spending will improve the economy. Most Americans also know that somehow a bill will be paid, either through increased taxes, stealth taxes, rationing, further economic collapse or all three. And Obama knows it too. None but the most economically ignorant would continue to push such a cruel lie unless there was something else at stake. In this case, it is power. Luckily, more Americans are seeing this as well.
