She was courteous enough, but this woman read Obama a thorough indictment of Obamacare

She was courteous enough that even President Obama said she didn't "have to pussyfoot around," but the woman who asked about Obamacare gave a pretty comprehensive indictment of the law's rollout and consequences for her family.

"I'm probably not the only one who has had really a panicked experience lately trying to figure if my 10-year-old son can continue with his specialist or not. I know that I cannot keep my plan, which I liked," Rebecca Stewart of Kentucky said to Obama during a Google+ hangout hosted by the White House today. "But as I'm trying to decide what to do going forward, I've spent weeks and days on the phone getting confidently-delivered wrong answers, conflicting information, and it's becoming quite obvious to me that a lot of agencies -- almost every one I've talked to -- is having a lot of trouble figuring out the new rules. So, I'm afraid that perhaps average Americans who haven't had the time or ability to do the legwork that I've been able to do are perhaps going to be blindsided by this."
