RIP The Baucus Plan
The Provocateur ^ | 09/18/2009 | Mike Volpe

Fred Barnes, on Special Report, had my favorite description of the recently released Max Baucus health care proposal. He said this is the worst rollout since the Edsel. Normally, when something is universally condemned by both Republicans and Democrats, I tend to like it. If all the politicians think something is bad, it's usually good.

The question should be: Has anyone in Congress or the Media seen a Health Care Plan out of the White House yet? In Zero’s speech he kept talking about his plan. Where is it? It doesn’t exist.

By not having a plan, Obama is voting “present”.

I read at least two articles in major news outlets that listed Baucus as republican.

You know it’s bad when they try to cover up that the author of the bill was a republican.

He must have a healthcare plan of his own he is hiding behind his ears, yet to be unveiled because they are going to call people out who aren’t enamored of Barry’s health plans.

Does that mean the dems will put out the “Public Healthcare Plan” again? They can say the non-public plan didn’t work, so now their only alternative is to go with the original plan.

Yes, which plan is the Obama plan? He has been talking about his plan for months. Where is it? It must be vapor ware or just what he wants it to be depending on the audience he is speaking to at the moment.

Wasn’t that pretty much his whole campaign appeal? Kind of like an ad-lib:
