I think you will find the article at the end of this post very enlightening. In summary it shows how Obama and his administration have been misleading the American public for the past 3 years and are continuing to do so. Most recently Obama apologized to those who are losing their health insurance (those who have individual coverage) as a result of Obamacare. But he and his administration also claim it will only impact those who have individual insurance. The vast majority of people are covered by a group policy through their employer. Obama and the administration have been claiming those policies will not be cancelled as a result of Obamacare. Andrew C. McCarthy has uncovered information showing the administration knows differently. The fate that befell those with individual coverage will also happen to a large amount of those with group coverage through their employer as well. Obamacare does not go into effect for those folks until the end of next year, 2014. That is when the other shoe will drop on a vast majority of the 156 million Americans who get their health insurance through their jobs.

Andrew C. McCarthy III is a former Assistant United States Attorney for the Southern District of New York. He is currently a senior fellow at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies, serving as the director of the FDD’s Center for Law and Counterterrorism. He has served as an attorney for Rudy Giuliani, and is also a conservative opinion columnist who writes for National Review and Commentary.

…Unable to deny that millions of Americans have lost the coverage he vowed they could keep, Obama and other Democrats are now peddling what we might call the “5 percent” con job. The president asserts that these victims, whom he feels so terribly about, nevertheless constitute a tiny, insignificant minority in the greater scheme of things (“scheme” is used advisedly).

The Obama administration and Democrats like Nancy Pelosi are attempting to minimize the Obamacare disaster by claiming those who are losing their insurance account for only 5% of the American population. This is an outright lie, they know it’s a lie, and Andrew McCarthy of National Review spells out why:
