So I'll just guess.
I heard the President say he is promoting a plan which does not cover illegal aliens or fund abortions. If legislation is passed and signed with that intent, I guarantee you there will be some people somewhere who find a way to beat those rules and scam the system. Is that what you mean by being 'DISHONEST"? If so, you are confusing what the President is promoting and what Congress articulates and passes. The wording of the legislation will determine how few or how many exceptions there be to the targeted ideal. Only once has THE LINE been drawn, with respect to increasing the deficit. If the President signs a bill which increases the deficit you will finally have the opportunity to call him dishonest.

Concerning illegal aliens........this is what the President said...
""The reforms I'm proposing would not apply to those who are here illegally."
First,there are MANY news reports out there that the President and Senator Chuck Schumer (D-NY) intend to try and pass Comprehensive Immigration Reform Amnesty legislation soon, that would legalize millions of illegal immigrants and qualify them for all taxpayer benefits and jobs in America.
Second, and this is FACT.....while illegal immigrants are mentioned in HR 3200 as being ineligible for health care benefits, there are no enforcement provisions and Republican lawmaker attempts to amend the legislation and add enforcement provisions have been voted down by Democrats. Illegals are not supposed to receive welfare, medicaide, vote or even have jobs, but they do because there is no enforcment !
So, how do you square this ?
The President said...."And one more misunderstanding I want to clear up: under our plan, no federal dollars will be used to fund abortions, and federal conscience laws will remain in place."
The Public option, which he favors clearly DOES allow for the use of federal money for abortions !
How do you square that ?
These are just two items off the top of the head and talking about paying for it is another story !
