Pres. Obama: Lower our Voices, Listen to Each Other and Talk
August 17th, 2009
This weekend, in his weekly address, President Obama attempted to cut through the noise, chatter and protests of last week’s heated health care debate. He boiled the issue down to its most essential point: what changes in health care will mean to the average person. Criticized last week by many for not presenting his case for reform with a clear plan – or a finished bill, the President pointed to the benefits of his proposal while carefully addressing the main concerns of his opposition: high costs in a downturned economy, comprised care, death panels, etc. He also reached back to other times in American history when major policy changes, like Medicare, came in to being and the roadblocks those initiatives ran into because of staunch resistance from political opponents. “TV loves a ruckus,” said President Obama about angry outbursts captured on television last week. “What you haven’t seen – because its not as exciting – are the many constructive meetings all over the country where Americans are airing their hopes and concerns about this important issue.”

obama is thee best president ever..!!! =]]
Obama is a despot ! And the declaration of independence talks about changing government .
That a good method approach is resolving and addressing issue at hand.
I think Mr. Obama relied too much on the representatives and senators to draft a bill. He should have polled the people and then told congress what he wanted drafted. If he had studied Reagan’s tactics of getting support, he probably would have known how to handle congress (even though I couldn’t stand Reagan — he knew how to manipulate those around him — maybe it was the psychic he used to guide him). Most of congress is uninformed and not very creative. And, they already have great insurance and are not motivated to get better healthcare for us. Maybe, they should be given Medicaid and see how they like it!
