President Obama's Arrogance Is Killing his Health Care Plan
N. Y. Daily News ^ | August 28, 2009 | Andrea Tantaros

President Obama's health care "plan" is going down like a handful of tacks, and the Democratic Party, experiencing the political equivalent of a nervous breakdown, is poised to commence a civil war over health reform that could virtually tear the party's leaders to shreds.

The White House has made a series of irreversible blunders that have left the party, and the President, in peril.

* Message schizophrenia. The talking points coming out of the White House these days are harder to follow than a Jessica Simpson autobiography. First, there was the moral imperative that it wanted to move forward with universal health care to cover the 46 million uninsured. This number is misleading. Many of the uninsured are offered insurance and don't take it, and millions are illegal aliens. More troubling is the fact that the former director of the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) says that 43% have the means to buy insurance but don't. CBO projections among the uninsured in 2009: 18% will be eligible for but not enrolled in Medicaid, and 30% will be offered, but will decline, coverage from an employer, leaving the electorate questioning a full overhaul.

Bad link or the website is down. Maybe they are pulling the story.

Beautiful article. Paints the self-absorbed, prissy, pursed-purple-lipped imbecile for the arrogant prick that he is. If pride cometh before a fall, then previously unseen tons of arrogant pride require a crash of seismic proportions.

This should result in not only the absolute failure of Obama Death Care, but the shrapnel from the blast should also take out Cap'n Traitor, and sink the trained chimp's abysmal presidency.

Without any question (and little if any argument!) the worst president in history. The whole country knows it, and he has nearly 3.5 years to go... unless someone leaks the real birth certificate; then he's done in 2 months.

I get great enjoyment each day reading about his failure or lack of support. I tell this to my democrat friends too. I put up with cheap shots at Bush but love laying down the facts against Barry. It’s a matter of time. He’ll give up or be forced out of the office he currently usurps.

I'm OK with this...

Anyone see a problem?
