Obama to Address Health Care at Joint Session of Congress 9/9
Abc News ^ | 9/2/09 | ABC News

Posted on 09/02/2009 12:32:27 PM PDT by Shellybenoit

President Obama will address a joint session of Congress on Sept 9.

This comes as the White House has been signaling publicly that they are ready to take charge of the health care debate.

So, this settles the 5th of the 5 health care strategy questions I laid out earlier on this blog today. The other 4 remain.

- George Stephanopoulos

He's going to "re-frame" the debate, eh? That just means he's going to rephrase what he's already said to try and get people to buy into it. Or use smoke and mirrors to deceive folks.

But that train has already left the station.

He's already revealed himself to be a liar...and the people have not forgotten it.

"I have not said that I was a single payer supporter.” Pres. Barack Hussein Obama, Aug 11, 2009

Compare that to what he said while campaigning for the Senate to his union supporters, and was cheered while so doing:

“I happen to be a proponent of a single-payer universal health care program. I see no reason why the United States of America, the wealthiest country in the history of the world, spending 14 percent of its gross national product on health care, cannot provide basic health insurance to everybody. And that’s what Jim is talking about when he says everybody in, nobody out. A single-payer health care plan, a universal health care plan. That’s what I’d like to see. But as all of you know, we may not get there immediately. Because first we’ve got to take back the White House, we’ve got to take back the Senate, and we’ve got to take back the House.” - Barack Hussein Obama, June 30, 2003 to AFL-CIO

The slumbering giant is really stirring now, and he's waking up hopping mad.

At least he was smart enough not to go head to head against the NFL opener.

Nothing new here. Madame P says the public option stays in. He is also going to use The Swimmer.

Watch Obie dig a bigger hole.

The people are on to him now.

“Obama to Address Health Care at Joint Session of Congress 9/9”

I can hear it now; “You damned Republicans running Congress need to give me a Health Care Reform bill!”

Hey, he thought there were 57 states, whose to say he has any clue who is running the legislative branch?

2 – How do you get the price tag down, likely down to about $700 billion? At that cost the most unpopular tax increases will not be necessary. And moderates in both the House and the Senate have already signaled that they can live with it at that level.

Eff you George. You working for the Administration? You might as well be, you pretty boy tool.

If he mentions Teddy then he is more screwed than he was before.

Here is the speech: Blah Blah blah. Up goes the applause sign and all the obamabots in the dem party go wild. We have gotten our tablets, so will say Moses-Pelousy.

I wonder if this will be a night session of congress so we can get the prime time TV coverage. Oh, he may bring more than two TOTUSs just incase of a failure in two of them.

Let me see, what time it is the OZero will be speaking...give me a few minutes beforehand to get in my stock shorts.

What an egghead.

Addressing a joint session of Congress, is worthy of a ‘State of the Union’ address, or Declaration of War.

He’s showing his desperation.

I can’t - in my lifetime - remember when a President addressed a joint session of congress (SOTU address excepted), when there wasn’t either a war looming or some other national crisis either just past or on the horizon.
