Leader Call - US Health Care Reform: Mr. Obama - A cake knife is useless in a gunfight

For the complete report from the Leader Call click on this link

US Health Care Reform: Mr.Obama - A cake knife is useless in a gunfight. On health-insurance reform, Obama has mainly his own high-minded fecklessness to blame. To alter the cliche, he hasn’t just brought a knife to a gunfight, he’s brought a cake knife. The GOP’s armed for war; he’s showed up with a multi-layered birthday cake of a bill hardly anybody understands. While insurance reform’s opponents peddle hysterical falsehoods, Obama counters with professorial explanations. Iowa Sen. Charles Grassley’s shameful endorsement of “death panels” should have taught him the futility of making nice.

f President Obama expects Congress to pass a health-insurance reform bill worth signing, he’d better grasp that “bipartisanship” is a means, not an end. After eight years of cheering themselves hoarse over one catastrophic Bush blunder after another, Republicans will start dealing with reality only when they’re afraid not to. Right now, it’s their talk-radio/Fox News-hypnotized base that’s got GOP congressmen running scared.

Hello, and thank you for your article. I completely agree with your statement that people do not actually understant what the reform is about. However, the fact is that there is more than 15% of Americans with no health insurance coverage. Therefore, I really appreciate that Mr.Obama at least tries to do something.

All the best,
