RedStateVT Grills Obama


Mr. President, you have stated that your health care plan actually helps to reduce the deficit. However, others have noted that the plan counts revenue for more years than it counts expenses. This appears to be dishonest. How do you respond?

Mr. President, many believe that frivolous medical malpractice lawsuits (see Edwards, John) contribute to skyrocketing medical costs. Yet you have only recently – and seemingly begrudgingly – included minor provisions in your bill to address this issue. Many would say that this is because the trial lawyers are major contributors to the Democrat Party. How do you respond?

Mr. President, as a senator you decried the use of reconciliation. Now you endorse it. This appears duplicitous. How do you respond?

Mr. President, yesterday you nominated the brother of a House Democrat whose vote you seek on health care to a prestigious judicial appointment. This gives the appearance that you are seeking to buy a vote. How do you respond?

Mr. President, polls show that a majority of Americans oppose your health care plan. How do you respond?
