Sen. Dick Durbin (D-IL) today:
Anyone who would stand before you and say ‘well, if you pass health care reform next year’s health care premiums are going down,’ I don’t think is telling the truth. I think it is likely they would go up.
President Obama, two days ago:
Our cost-cutting measures mirror most of the proposals in the current Senate bill, which reduces most people’s premiums.
I’m sure Durbin would have said something different if he had realized that Obama was out there telling this particular lie. You can’t blame Durbin, though; it’s hard to keep track of all the president’s lies. Still, I doubt that will save him from a trip to the woodshed.
