I can't keep up with the Obama administration. Is it on or off this week?

The Dem Congress critters seem to be talking it down today but Obama still seems to be holding his cards close.

Probably off because the Senate bill is being written by a former insurance company executive. And the whole health care industry has side deals with the White House.

We've been sold out again. Big Business gets the windfall, we get the crumbs.

It will never be off until a bill is passed without it. We must watch them very closely because who knows where they will hide it in the final bill. So much was hidden in that House thing people have been so unhappy about.

Even worse if they treat it like Cap&Trade and put a last minute amendment up at 3AM and tell no one.

Oh I agree. I trust this Administration and Congress like I trust a rattlesnake.

Great suggestion and probably just what they will do, too.
