Healthcare
Frankly, your average TeaParty individual would rather muck out the back yard outhouse than have to hear one more elected official tell them that they want Health Care. What they want is a job…or, if they are working at a non-gubment job, enough money to hire someone who is out of work to come and muck out the family bathroom.
Much will be written and spoken about the Bipartisan Health Care Debacle televised on television today, February 25th.
In the run up to the event, an article dated February 25th published in the Washington Post on February 24th entitled “On bipartisan health care, a foundation for agreement“ was published. Ed note: The punctuation and capitalization is that of the Washington Post…not mine. Jeez The byline for the piece goes to Kathleen Sebelius and Nancy-Ann DeParle. Therefore, we wonder who actually wrote the article.
In their own imperious words they said, “Today, Democrats and Republicans have a chance to come together, share their best ideas and unite behind reforms that will put families and small-business owners back in control of their health care… Since this debate began, media coverage has focused almost entirely on areas of disagreement between the two parties. But as two people who have spent much of the past year discussing health reform with President Obama and other Democrats, Republicans and independents, including many of the Republicans attending today’s meeting, we share the view of Rep. Charles Boustany (R-La.), who said last September: “We agree on about 80 percent of the issues right now. It’s just a matter of hashing out those few areas where we disagree…. That’s why we think Republicans should find a lot to like in the proposal President Obama released on Monday. We know Republicans will support the measures to prevent health-care fraud, such as new background checks for Medicare suppliers and real-time reviews of claims, because they’re the ones who wrote them.
The news tidbit delivered to us by the authorettes Sebelius and DeParle was just too easy….. From the website of Rep. Charles Boustany (R-La.), a snip published on February 24th….a whole day before the Sebilius/DeParle piece, which was dated February 25th, but published on February 24th by the award winning Washington Post said this…..
Boustany to Attend President’s Health Care Summit to Provide Republican Solutions to Lowering Health Costs Feb 24 2010……
“As a doctor, I saw firsthand the difficulties patients face in our health care system, and I continue to work with my colleagues to address the most pressing problem, which is lowering health care costs for all Americans,” said Boustany. “I am hopeful the President will listen to the bipartisan solutions we advocate. Health care is too important to simply rush through a glossy, 2,000 plus page bill. We need to scrap the current bills and start with commonsense solutions to lower health care costs.”
Now…. Why exactly are we not surprised to see a smidge of obfuscation and child-like propaganda from dames Sebilius and DeParle, and who exactly did write the article with their byline?Yes, friend Boustany may have said what he said back in September…but he since changed his mind a little.
In other breaking news, top Obama supporter Valerie Jarret recently had this to say about her favorite boss…. “President Obama hasn’t changed since I’ve known him. He hasn’t. He’s always been disciplined, empathetic, temperate, intellectual, inquisitive, compassionate, self-critical, and an excellent listener.” Jarrett continued to note that the President’s capacity to multitask effectively was incredible. “Going from one meeting on terrorism, to another on mortgage foreclosures, to another, and another … his focus and ability to pay attention, coupled with the energy to see conversations through without rushing to a decision, but rather bringing a discussion to its logical conclusion is remarkable.”
