Where have you been? The majority of the country is for Health Care reform.

GOP cool to Obama call for health talks - Health care reform- msnbc.com
Because for the past 12 months 0bama has had a completely partisan effort to pass health care, and now 0bama wants republican input to help make tweaks to their partisan bills.

If 0bama wants to see republican plans on health care, all he needs to do is dust off the plans republicans submitted to him, they have been sitting in his inbox since 2009.

The subject is closed, as far as they're concerned.

They feel that they have control again.

That's what I thought too. They are still shell shocked.

But it is silly that they have spent an entire year complaining that Obama doesnt' listen to them, and now that they hard round-1 face-to-face in the ring and lost, they refuse round-2.

Sounds like a chicken to me.....

You're exactly right.

They believe that they are in control. That's all that matters to them.

Why bother with TV? They could just join the debate on C-D where no one agrees it's just you believe what you like and I'll believe what I like. And like Nike, we'll come back tomorrow and do it again.

There is no health care bill, only November.

Do you care or have interest in what majority of the country wants or feels? Because it seems to be your way what you want or no way at all.

They were until the democrats felt the need to compromise with the moronic right and ruined the bill.
