Charles Krauthammer indicated that obviously Obama did not get hear the message and Obama pretty much verified by pushing his ‘it is my way or the highway’ in his surprise meeting with the press corps yesterday.
Both (GOP) Senators Boehner and McConnell stated that they made it clear… why starting with the two bills (the House and Senate versions) that the Dems could not pass, with their supermajority, and that the American people don’t want, makes no sense. Eric Kantor has sent Obama a serious letter letting him just that, that government-run healthcare needs to be off the table and negotiations need to start from scratch.
Obama stated and seems to think that the American people are tired of (have soured on) the process and said that they did not want to go through another set of negotiations so he was not backing off his mega takeover of healthcare. As usual his ideological interpretation is totally wrong.
Americans do not want Progressives and the Federal Government taking over healthcare!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The Majority of Americans want the present bills all scraped and want Congress and Obama to start over in a bipartisan way to fix the parts of the existing system that are broken. Except for a small percentage of Kool Aid Drinking Progressives nobody wants the Federal government taking over their healthcare… period!!!
As usual, Obama’s perception is off or he is purposely deaf and blind.
This latest bipartisan meeting on HC has all the markings of a Trap to make the GOP look unwilling to work together as Obama stacks everything into a ‘my way or the highway pile’ in an attempt to make the Republicans look obstructive. But it isn’t going to work. The people are on to him!!
In one of Krauthammer’s more humorous reviews, he says of Obama, “He thinks it is about the process not the substance. He thinks it is the dog food ad or labeling, or that he didn’t explain it well enough in dogese or even the bowl, when in reality it is the fact that the dogs don’t like the dog food. In reality, “the president is barking up the wrong tree!!”
And think about it, just last week in the State of the Union speech, Obama tried to sell himself as the jobs president… but now we are back to the ideological agenda of the takeover of healthcare and pushing cap and trade, even though nobody wants ObamaCare and while Washington and most of the rest of the country is under several feet of snow with more coming.
The GOP needs to attend the summit but needs to insist that the healthcare reform process be started over. Using Krauthammer’s theme to analyze Obama’s insistence on starting with the bills that won’t pass the best that can be said is, “That dog won’t hunt!”.
Contact the Republican Senators and Tell Them: No Negotiations Until Govt-Run HC is DOA
