Who won the Obamacare Summit?
Would the Obamacare Summit have taken place if Scott Brown had not produced probably the biggest upset in decades by taking over the Senate seat held by the late Ted Kennedy? Judging from our balanced news sources that now say Obama and Pelosi will ram Obamacare through regardless of what transpired at the public summit, I don’t think so. Brown’s victory, along with the increase in “tea parties” across America, have forced Obama and the democrats (especially Pelosi and Reid who are also behind in the polls for their own seats) to start honoring their campaign promises. Not all Americas are that ignorant.
But who won? The answer is as clear as the growing nose on Obama’s face that’s getting longer by the day: We all did. That’s because the truth came out after the many liberal lies by the democrats and the MSM that the Republicans never had any ideas for healthcare or fixing the economy. Another Obama and Pelosi lie. In fact, it was found during the summit that the Republicans do indeed have great ideas for healthcare reform. But will Obama and Pelosi listen? Judging by their face signals, and the fact that two-thirds of the time was given to Obama and the democrats, I would say “NO.” So why would Obama ram through Obamacre when just the other day CNN viewers (liberal) who were polled found that 73% do not want Obamacre as it sits today and FOX News found close to the same at 70%? Because without passing the current healthcare bill, Obama’s next three years are shot as a president. If Obamacare does get passed our liberal government will control the majority of the people, and their votes, despite the fact that many democrats have already lost elections while more will be removed in large quantities come November. But passing Obamacare completes Obama and the democrats’ long term wish: Follow Alinsky’s book as to how to ruin the Unites States by socializing our country.

I do know there is one thing you and I can agree on: we need healthcare reform big time! I'm all for it. But not for our government to run most if any part of it. I think America was woken up to the fact our lawyers in Washington are useless when it comes to running any business. And the current Obama admin. has less than 10% private sector job experience or much if any business experience. How's the weather in AZ? Were having a heat wave. In the 20's and 30's!

The title of your blog disgusts me Jim, the summit is not a prizefight, even though the media promotes it as such, truly reprehensible.
I am not sure who won it, but I do know who lost, and that would be the public, because our representatives in Washington cannot work together, for the life of us.
It is obvious that the republicans are being obstructionists, rejecting ideas they originally proposed, but when Obama and the dems accept it the republicans reject the very proposals that the made.
@jmark thanks for the link it was interesting to watch, and I agree with Rachel Maddow’s assessment of the insurance companies.

In regards to your comment that my blog title upsets you and is "disgusting," try bashing Obama for this. All he had to do was honor the dozens of times he promised to show all these debates in C-Span. Did you forget that?

Noonan's observation on Obama's behavior at the Health Care Summit:
"He Obama) even said, "There was an imbalance in the opening statements because—I'm the president." Yowza. Grace shows strength, accommodation shows security. This showed—well, not strength. When Rep. Eric Cantor attempted to make a sharp point, the president took the camera off him by calling for his aides and conferring with them as Mr. Cantor spoke.
The president has entered a boorish phase. This is not a good sign for his program, but tells us something about his likely next step...
What the meeting made clear is what the Democrats are going to do—not step back and save the moderates of their party but attempt to bully a bill through the Congress. This is boorish of them, and they'll suffer for it."
Of course there were many other "lowlights" of this Summit, and the fact that Dems had twice as much speaking time as the Republicans showed that Obama wasn't really too interested in giving equal time to the opposition. And for Obama to call the 2,000 plus page health care bill presented for all to see on the table of the Republicans "a prop?" is just bizarre. That "prop" is what the health care summit was all about, Mr. Prez. It was a great move on the part of the Republicans to show the largess and massive size of this monstrosity and blatant power-grab. The Dems lost this one, big time. And what they do next week will either seal their fates come election time OR maybe give them a fighting chance to remain in office if they make a real, honest attempt to work with Republicans.

And personally, I agree that the American people won. We were finally able to see (remember all that "transparency" Obama touted before becoming Prez?) a debate on socialized medicine. And the Republicans read from the bill - highlighting all the problems and concerns - the same problems and concerns that 70% plus of we commoners are worried about.
Private insurance companies may have their flaws, but government-run health care is another disaster waiting to happen. Another government-entitlement program in which vast sums of money will be required (from where? the taxpayers, of course) to try to keep it afloat? And it won't work, no matter how hard Barry & Nancy & Harry try to convince us. It will be another money pit. One-sixth of the U.S. economy in the hands of government to do what? Make our health care system worse and more costly? No thanks.

I'd still like someone to (honestly if possible) to explain this 1/6th of the economy BS...If this was an honest assumption then the government plans to own all hospitals and pay all medical staff salaries, which isn't the truth, just more fearmongering.

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nevada) pushed this week for Senate passage of a stopgap 30-day extension of jobless benefits, which also includes a 30-day extension of a federal COBRA health insurance subsidy for the jobless. But as of late Thursday, Sen. Jim Bunning (R-Ky.) objected to each attempt to bring the issue to a Senate floor vote, balking that the measure would further inflate the nation's debt.
The Housepassed a 30-day extension Thursday.
