South Carolina Republican Gov.-elect Nikki Haley challenged President Barack Obama over his landmark health care overhaul Thursday in a candid, personal exchange in front of Cabinet members and newly elected governors from across the country.
In an exchange that White House aides didn't dispute, Obama rejected Haley's request to repeal the health care bill...
"I said the people of South Carolina and the small businesses of South Carolina cannot afford the mandated health care law they had passed," Haley said after the meeting. "I told him that our economy is already in a tough spot, and our budget cannot sustain the mandate."
With only four Democratic incoming governors joining 18 Republicans and one independent, Obama acknowledged that the Nov. 2 elections hadn't gone as he'd hoped.

No state budget can sustain the health care budget. Obama is counting on that.
Why else do you think he refuses to abandon it?
The goal of health care is social engineering, wealth redistribution, nationalization of the health industry and population control. It has nothing to do with health care.
In today's world, men have to relate to business women as they always related to men. Everyone's equal in the working/political arena, like it or not.
Whether man or woman, whoever shows the most common sense and intelligence is the person we conservatives will support, be they male or female!
Wow! Why don’t the pubbies who’ve been there for years and years do this?

Thanks george76.

We have finally got some straight talking women with the COURAGE to challenge power to it’s face!
RIGHT ON! YOU GO GIRL!
Haley: Speaking truth to power (as the libs liked to say, once upon a time!). You go, Nikki! Hm, note to self: Future first Sikh-American President?
Who do you think the Dems policies hurt the most? You got it... The Poor!

But, Joe was only saying what everyone else was thinking. He had to apologise though.
