Here’s a mini summary;
President Barack Obama insisted Monday “the time is now” for healthcare reform as he geared up for a major address to Congress this week aimed at getting his top domestic policy priority back on track.
Taking his case for a healthcare overhaul to America’s economically hard-hit heartland, Obama sought to seize back the initiative on the divisive issue after losing ground to critics during a turbulent summer.
“It’s time to do what’s right for America’s working families, to put aside the partisanship, to come together as a nation, to pass health insurance reform now — this year,” Obama told a wildly cheering crowd at a Labor Day picnic held by the AFL-CIO union coalition in Cincinnati, Ohio.
That last line sounds like it just may have had a preaching type tone to it.
It’s time to do what’s right for America’s working families, to put aside the partisanship, to come together as a nation, to pass health insurance reform now — this year,”
This is a joke, right???? Obama has ALLOWED PELOSI and REID to be very partisan, it’s my way or the highway thinking. Even The One thinks like that, you can come to the table if you do it my way.
I do not want government run health care, they need to stay out of it. They are part of the problem (not paying drs or hospital the full amount so everyone else cost go up to make up for the gap). Anyway, a tax credit (kind of like the EIC) to every one who makes less then a set dollar amount, they can go out an get there own coverage. It’s simple!
