You (Republicans) don’t agree to any health care summit at the White House where 0bongo controls the setting. The summit must be on neutral turf
If Republicans have any cojones they say — “With all due respect Mr. President we will not be summoned to the White House for your photo op but are willing to meet you and your party halfway in an uncharged neutral location”
A military base near DC would be a good neutral location. Lots of security can be easily cheaply set up
It’s being held at the Blair House, but I understand your point.
It’s still Obama’s “setting.”
