Who knew what when?

President Obama is getting heat over his oft repeated claim that, nether his healthcare reform, "If you lot similar your plan, you lot tin continue it."  It is clear straightaway that for millions of Americans, especially those who participated inwards the private insurance market, that is exactly non true.  You tin fence that the excogitation they volition larn nether the Affordable Care Act is better, but it seems undeniable that the President's sales pitch was factually incorrect.

As individual who has previously worked for a President, I am fascinated past times how the White House staff permit President Obama in addition to thence consistently in addition to so publicly make a simulated statement.  Presidential speeches undergo a painstakingly thorough review process. It seems that in that place are exclusively 3 possibilities:

1. The White House staff did non know the contention was false.  That is, they did non sympathize the constabulary the administration was promoting.

2. The White House staff knew the contention was false, but they decided to continue this fact from the President.  That is, they permit the President unwittingly prevarication to the American people.

3. The White House staff knew the contention was simulated in addition to told the President so, but the President decided to continue maxim it anyway.  That is, the President consciously decided to prevarication to the American people.

These are the exclusively 3 possibilities I tin envision.  None of them reflects especially good on what has been going on inwards the White House.
