WASHINGTON (Associated Press) -- With the fate of his signature legislative initiative far from certain, President Barack Obama is taking his last-ditch push for a health care overhaul on the road.

In a speech Monday in Philadelphia, Obama will try to persuade the public to back his plan to remake the nation's health care system, while also urging uneasy lawmakers to cast a "final vote" for the massive legislation in an election year.

Idiot. Seeking support from those who have already stated their utter contempt for the communist’s attempt to destroy another sixth of the economy.

Hey, I know! We can call it the "Final Solution".

Very good analogy with the exception Bill Murray turned out to be an OK guy, by eventually learning from his mistakes.

BO on the other hand, is not making any progress I can see.

Where are the jobs?

Obviously Obama has a fiery zeal and a rhetoric for an improved healthcare for America, the problem is America needs jobs first.

Unless you are heading downhill....

If a Republican of any testicular fortitude exists, I would like to see them go to the floor and attack BO and his good WEINER friend like this:

For years and years, the Democrat party viciously attacked the pharmaceutical industry for advertising on tv, for charging a lot for drugs, etc. etc.

YOU NEVER HEAR THAT FROM THE DEMOCRATS ANY MORE! Why?

The answer is because the White House began holding secret meetings with BIG PHARMA in February of 2009, enlisting their support IN EXCHANGE for a measure of protection in the health care bill. Former Republican representative Billy Tauzin, a chief lobbyist for Big Pharma, was one of the people involved.

After getting the pharmaceutical companies on board, the White House needed a NEW target to demonize. So the INSURANCE COMPANIES became the enemy.

SOMEONE IN THE REPUBLICAN PARTY, PLEASE WAKE UP AND MAKE THESE FACTS KNOWN LOUD AND CLEAR!

I swear, the Republican message machine is soooooooooooo weak.
