Wow just about covers it! So, this happened:
Feinstein: Hey, you could have kept your plan … until we enacted ObamaCare http://t.co/H3D99poT63

More from Hot Air:
SCHIEFFER: The president said in the beginning that one thing was that if you liked the health care program you had, you could keep it. We now know there was debate within the administration before he said that as to whether that was actually a promise that could be kept. Should the president not have made that statement?
FEINSTEIN: Well, as I understand it, you can keep it up to the time — and I hope this is correct, but this is what I’ve been told — up to the time the bill was enacted, and after that, it’s a different story. That part of it, if true, was never made clear.
Dude.
Head over to Hot Air to see the video in all its glory. Sen. Feinstein is still not sure what was in the bill that had to be passed to find out what’s in it!
Twitter users gasped for breath while watching it unfold live on “Face the Nation” on Sunday.
Feinstein: "You can keep your plan, up to the time the Bill[Obamacare] is enacted." These Dems are hopeless, stupidest statement I've heard.

Inadvertent truth or simply befuddled confusion?
@EdMorrissey She must have meant that you can only keep it if you bought it before the bill passed.
— David Freddoso (@freddoso) November 4, 2013
Perhaps both.
I also don't recall Obama qualifying his promise by saying you can only keep plans purchased before 4/2010, but maybe I'm just forgetting.

Bingo.
Lies, lies and more lies. Period.
Ed Morrissey of Hot Air brings it all home with some delicious exit snark.
@freddoso I think this is what Feinstein meant to say: http://t.co/5zo3HVIic6
