Trial Balloon By Obama
This weekend the HHS Secretary floated a trial balloon. The balloon? The suggestion to take out the public healthcare insurance option from any future healthcare reform bill. The Whitehouse is backing away from those comments made yesterday, but make no mistake it was a trial balloon to see the public’s reaction.
Maybe, just maybe, the public outcry is finally reaching the Whitehouse. Take the Public Insurance option out, and then craft a bill that reforms the system, and for heaven sake include Tort Reform!
