The Health Care Summit – Obama’s Continued Campaign for Socialized Medicine

(Jason Reed/Reuters)

What can I say, I am completely dumbfounded. What don’t the President and the Democrats understand? I think this “health care summit” did more harm to Obama and his agenda than any Republican could ever do. The same old lies and exaggerations that we have heard for months. The same arrogant attitude and deity like persona that Obama tried to portray was unbelievable. The man thinks he is some kind of god.

Obama tried to act as a moderator and became argumentative and angry when Republicans tried to bring up the issues of costs, reconcilitation, back room deals and details of the Senate bill. Many of the media outlets quit carrying coverage of the summit as Obama struggled with his own ego and the summit appeared to go the wrong way. I think that the MSM was embarrassed for him and tried to spare his image by cutting coverage. The summit backfired on the Democrats and for the first time, I don’t believe that they can ram health care reform through under the current political environment and public opinion.

It is high time that we drop this ludicrous bill and concentrate on the real concerns of America like jobs and the economy. We simply cannot afford a 1,000,000,000,000 monstrosity right now. The Democrats continue to push the idea that this bill would help the 40 million people that have no “health care”. No one in this country goes without “health care”. They may not have health insurance, but they don’t go without health care and the public knows it. They also see the costs and they are not willing to pay the price. This day may go down in history as the day health care reform died.
