WASHINGTON (Reuters) -

President Barack Obama said in an interview on Thursday that he regrets that "we weren't as clear as we needed to be" about Obamacare healthcare reforms and apologized to Americans who are losing their healthcare insurance policies.

"I am sorry that they are finding themselves in this situation, based on assurances they got from me," Obama told NBC News.

Obama, who repeatedly told Americans that they could keep their health insurance if they liked it, said he is looking at "a range of options" to help people whose insurance plans are being canceled.

Sorry, didn't mean to mislead you? WTF?

This is what irks me.

Leader of the free world can blatantly lie to the people he is supposed to serve and his reply is Ooops, sorry?

I'm ashamed of the what our country has become and saddened that my kids will inherent this mess that we* created.

*we - meaning the voting masses that keep this train moving full steam ahead.

Bread and Circues

"Bread and circuses" (or bread and games) (from Latin: panem et circenses) is a metaphor for a superficial means of appeasement. In the case of politics, the phrase is used to describe the creation of public approval, not through exemplary or excellent public service or public policy, but through diversion; distraction; or the mere satisfaction of the immediate, shallow requirements of a populace, as an offered "palliative."

To many, it connotes a supposed triviality and frivolity that characterized the Roman Republic prior to its decline into the autocratic monarchy characteristic of the later Roman Empire's transformation about 44 B.C.
