GOP Video On Closed-Door Health Reform Negotiations

When are you going to get around to "reporting" on the Democratic response to this video?

Funny, I could have sworn that congress passed numerous bills to fund the war with many Democrats voting to do so.

I also have a vague memory of congress passing in a bipartisan manner (and by this I mean more than 1 or 2 opposition yes votes) authorization to start the fight in the first place.

Please take your revisionism elsewhere Vampire.

Is that nothing was more closed door, ever in American history then when George Bush spent his trillions, that's right trillions, on war.

But, oh, health care, all of a sudden you all want transparency?

Please.

Come wake me up when new health care spending eclipses the cost of the Bush's war spending over the last eight years.

Yawn.

A word to the wise imbecile!
Better not yawn around me or you will get fisted with tooth knuckles!!

Transparency works best behind closed doors.

Federal Employees Health Benefits Program

As soon as members of Congress are sworn in, they may participate in the Federal Employees Health Benefits Program (FEHBP). The program offers an assortment of health plans from which to choose, including fee-for-service, point-of-service, and health maintenance organizations (HMOs). In addition, Congress members can also insure their spouses and their dependents.

Not only does Congress get to choose from a wide range of plans, but there’s no waiting period. Unlike many Americans who must struggle against precondition clauses or are even denied coverage because of those preconditions, Senators and Representatives are covered no matter what - effective immediately.

And here’s...

and does this mean that Obama has once again lied to us or is Congress in for a shocker? It is a rhetorical question offered for the denser classes amongst us.

"Under my plan, if you have health insurance, nothing changes for you, except that my plan will lower your health care costs. If you don’t, you’ll be able to get the same kind of coverage that members of Congress give themselves"

today when he said, "they'll do what they're told". You see Barry is G-D, Barry is omnipotent, and omnipresent.

Anyone notice people smoking in the room conjuring up the cliched smoke filled room.

Though if the President is in there I guess it is accurate.

This ad doesn't even come close to the vitriol that the Dems use in their ads. Hey, did you hear the one about Tea Party and town hall meeting attendees being angry mobs and racists? Or, did you catch that funny one about Doctors cutting off your feet for profit and hacking out kids tonsils on the margins? Knee-slapping I tell you.

Then there's the one about tens of thousands dyeing regularly because of lack of health insurance. Enough to tickle your funny bone I tell ya. But watch out for the one by the Republicans who try to get your attention in an ad about healthcare negotiations going on behind closed doors, scary stuff.

often work hard at getting away with stuff rather than producing things of value.

to know and what are they trying to hide? It is a straight forward and sobering message.

Agreed, nicely produced and good choice on using black and white tones.
Voice over is a bit soft but music is effective.

I'm still waiting for that televised coverage of the health care debate. One more broken promise to add to the HUGE mound of other broken promises.
