It's one of those really important commandments, you know!
But neither President Obama, nor his staff, had not checked his facts. This was the second time that President Obama related the story of a man who had lost his health insurance, which delayed his cancer treatment, and that the man had died because of this.
Yes, the gentleman did lose his health coverage, and yes, his cancer treatment was delayed a couple of weeks. But, after his health plan was re-instated, he did receive treatment was given during the timeframe he needed it.
And yes, he unfortunately did die--after four years. But---his life was prolonged several years due to proper treatment that he did receive.
Oops.
