New health care meetings.  email this discussion to a friend?

So now President Obama wants to have Democarts and Republicans meet on health care, and he wants it on TV. First, seems a little late to try to keep two of his campaign promises, he should have done this first thing. Second, have to think that he is going to try to sneak his plan through or have the whole thing fall apart and then blame the Republicans. Perhaps the best thing for him to do is have every member of congress have a couple of town hall meetings and then have congress work together to address what We the People want them to address.

It's all for show since his, and other democrats are dying in the polls. He knows that nearly every democrat up for reelection is trailing their opponents so he's trying to make it appear that he's "unbreaking" his promises. Of course anyone who listens to him knows it's bull. The bills are already written, he's made it very clear that he'll talk about the bills, but that he's standing by the bills in the house and senate. So in other words, it will be a lot of talk about bills that are already written and have zero republican input. I pity anyone stupid enough to believe these talks mean anything.

The Republicans have introduces several pieces of legislation and they have all been voted down along party lines.

How can President Obama talk about his plan when he has not presented any written plan to congress. He told congress he wanted a health plan and they wrote what they wanted and they did not include any Republicans. Why should they become involved now with the Democrat plan. Why not wait until the election and run on their own plan. then let the voters decide which they want.

Obama has been saying, in public, since last August, that Republicans have no ideas on health care. Every time he said it, the Republicans tried to explain their ideas only to have theme rejected while the Dems and the President told everyone that the Republicans had no ideas of their own and so were being obstructive. Now that the tide of public opinion is overwhelmingly critical of the shenanigans going on with closed-door meetings and the shutting-out of all Republicans in every negotiation on health care, Obama is going to pretend to listen to the Republican ideas he has been pretending to believe didn't exist. It's all a farce.

Obama will not agree that Congress must start over and craft a new bill on health care, so he will pretend to listen, insist on everything in the bill Americans do not want and then blame it on the Republicans when it does not pass.

Obama and all of our elected officials in Washington have finally gotten the clue. Americans are ticked off and not going to take it anymore. We don't trust them. We won't stand for their closed door meeting and deals. We won't stand for them to vote on a bill no one (including most of the congresspeople voting for it) have not had a chance to read. The American public refuses to be shut out of the process. Plus we are fed up with their spend, spend, spend attitude.
They are doing this not because they know it is the right thing to do....they are doing it because We the people of this country are forcing them to do it. They are kicking and screaming about the whole way too.
