Fool me once, Jonathan Gruber

So it's official: Obamacare was always a stalking horse for the socialist dream of single payer.  Hot Air: "The public option is back and as dishonest as ever."

President Obama is apparently not done lying about his health plan. Having pushed Obamacare with false claims such as the infamous lie “if you like your plan, you can keep it” the President is now calling for the return of the public option without admitting the real goal of the program from the start was to crowd out private insurance and usher in single-payer.

The cynic in me tells me that the Democrats don't even really want single-payer: they just want an issue to get them through the election cycle.  Just like the initial Obamacare debate, the media will be a dependable ally.
