>>You are referring to Jay Carney, the White House press secretary, aren't you? Wonderful! Now there is a totally unbiased source of information <vbg>. I can tell you from personal experience there were no new affordable insurance options available for Andy and me.

Don't you agree that "there are two sides to every story?" An assertion of wrongdoing by the White House was made- one side of the story- and there was a White House response- the other side of the story. And now everybody has gone quiet.
