Transparency and openness, finally: The GOP & Obama Q&A show

It’s our own version of Britain’s Prime Minister’s questions and it’s been happening for nearly an hour live. br> Hurry and tune in now on C-SPAN online if you aren’t near a TV.
Yes, Obama has shown some of his finger-wagging tendencies, ignored GOP Rep. Tom Price’s question, complained that health care critics likened Demcare to a “bolshevik” plan, and complained when some questioners went long (chutzpah).
But the session has been most compelling — the most transparency and openness we’ve seen since the start of his term.
Good on the House Republicans for throwing the doors open.
And, yes, I’m going to compliment the president: Good on him for taking part.
Yet another dividend of the Massachusetts Miracle.
Forget the staged dog-and-pony campaign rallies and stacked town halls.
Do this every week.
Read the readers comments, most insightful

I will later post the YouTube on GB's show today, for it is a keeper! Also will get transcript. Some highlights :
Today's Lesson was all about the history of Progressivism. Woodrow Wilson gave us WWI, UN, Federal Reserve.Progressive tax, Said NOT to bother reading the preamble,used Europe as a guide, especially Germany,bigot extraordinaire

Next,Teddy Roosevelt who is McCains hero, thus GB calling him a Conservative Progressive.

FDR likened to BHO, uses scapegoats when he fails, FDR said we need a second Bill of Rights

Others called Progressives---John Dewey George Bernard Shaw GB called frightening, with his desire to reduce human population.. Margaret Sanger planned parenthood, again, human population reduction , as is abortion.
It was stated we now have 80 members of Congress in current Congressional Progressive caucus.
