HE DOESN'T "GET IT", DOES HE?

It is becoming more apparent by the day that our President doesn't really grasp the very real reservations held by many (most?) Americans about the hastily thrown together, ill-conceived and ultimately far too costly [unconstitutional] takeover of the health care industry.

Obama Insists Health Plan Will Pass

By JEFF ZELENY and CARL HULSE

WASHINGTON — President Obama said Thursday that he “would love to have more Republicans engaged” in the health care negotiations under way in Congress, but expressed doubt that a bipartisan compromise could be reached because he suspected the party’s leadership was intent on defeating his signature domestic priority.

“I think early on, a decision was made by the Republican leadership that said, ‘Look, let’s not give him a victory,’ ” Mr. Obama said, accusing his rivals of trying to reprise the efforts that went into derailing the Clinton health care agenda.

“There are some folks,” he added, “who are taking a page out of that playbook.”

But one lawmaker who participated Thursday night in a conference call among six Republican and Democratic senators trying to reach bipartisan agreement on a health care plan said the senators agreed to keep working together and asked staff members to focus on making health coverage more affordable while holding down medical costs.

It's the return of the vast, right-wing conspiracy!

Zero doesn't seem to realize that HIS party controls the House, the Senate and the White House (but not yet the Supreme Court) and if he can't get his boondoggle rammed through, it can only be laid at the feet of himself!

How's that Hope/Change thingie working out for ya, Mr. President? You have a brain dead robot in charge of the Senate, a woman of almost indiscernible mental capacity as Speaker of the House And you cannot understand why these worthies cannot ramrod your completely ill-conceived plan through either of the two houses of Congress. It has taken too long you idiot (okay, President Idiot) - we've read the damned bill (although certainly most of the congresspersons haven't) and we know what a piece of undiluted crap it truly is. We're honestly protesting it and you think it's a negotiating ploy! What a tool!
