The Health Care Summit held by President Obama and attended by members of Congress was billed as a  way to get ideas out on the table. President Obama said he didn’t want talking points and hoped the meeting wouldn’t turn into political theater. Unfortunately, that’s all it was.  For seven and half hours live on TV, Republicans and Democrats filled the room with hot air.  Then by the end there was no compromise and no promises of working together. Instead the president wants to go ahead and try to ram the bill through.  Does he even care about the American public thinks?  I know health care reform is important and something does need to be done, but I think the Health Care Summit should have been a Getting America Back to Work Summit instead.  A lot of people don’t have health care insurance because they don’t have jobs.  I don’t understand why the White House is so hell bent on getting health care reform passed.  Polls taken by Rasmussen show that 56% of Americans oppose the proposed health care reform while 41% favor the reform.  I don’t think the White House is really paying attention to the American people.  In case any politician has forgotten, you work for us.  The people voted and fortunately we have the power to vote you out.  I think the 2010 elections will be very interesting for both parties.  Both parties, Republican and Democrat, have done a big disservice to our country.  We have to regain control of our country. Remember the opening line of the Constitution … “We the People”.
