Nice Try, Mr. President
Posted by: Meredith Jessup at 1:20 PM
People aren't buying what President Obama is selling, especially when it comes to selling the claim that his health care plan wouldn't add a dime to the deficit.  Here's an intriguing statistic for you, courtesy pollster/wordsmith Frank Luntz:
[B]y an incredible 61% to 14% margin, more people believe scientists will discover life in outer space than believe the current healthcare plan won’t add a penny to the deficit.
I think it's safe to say that President Obama has lost quite a bit of credibility when it comes to putting together a health care plan that's fiscally responsible...

Fall colors good idea for new topic
Since most of the public want to move in the same direction as Obama, never mind the particulars, it stands to reason the public would accept tax increses to pay for it. Take the insurance lobby out of the equation and reform would be bipartisan and today we would be talking about something else.
