A Republican senator says President Barack Obama has consistently opposed Republican proposals that would make healthcare insurance less expensive and more accessible to the American public.
President Obama recently visited the Democratic National Committee (DNC) headquarters to talk about healthcare. He told an audience at the DNC and thousands watching online and listening by telephone that "winning the election is just the start."
Obama says he is still looking for Republican support for a comprehensive healthcare bill, but Democrats privately are preparing a one-party push. Some Democrats say a strong-arm tactic on Senate healthcare legislation, one that would negate the need for any GOP votes, might be more effective than previously thought.
Senator Jim DeMint (R-South Carolina) has been one of Obama's staunchest critics on this issue. He says the president opposed meaningful Republican legislation while he still a member of the Senate.
"I want Americans to be clear that I have introduced major healthcare reform every year I've been in the Senate. Barack Obama did not introduce any that I'm aware of.

In his autobiography, “Dreams From My Fathers”, Barack Obama writes of taking a job at some point after graduating from Columbia University in 1983. He describes his employer as “a consulting house to multinational corporations” in New York City, and his functions as a “research assistant” and “financial writer”.
The odd part of Obama’s story is that he doesn’t mention the name of his employer. However, a New York Times story of 2007 identifies the company as Business International Corporation which is a front company for the CIA.
(Interesting)
That could use it’s own thread.
Strange stuff, about CIA.
Is the CIA in bed with Communism to destroy us?
Exactly Ryan
There doesn’t seem to be any connection between barry and the CIA.
Or if barry adopted a Hate USA and CIA atttiude to foolm everyone he has done a good job
Someone who thinks he as with CIA please explain.
I think this point needs to be made constantly and consistently - when he had a chance to affect any health care reform in the senate, he took a bye - illustrating the fact that he actually did NOTHING as a U.S. senator...POSER...
Well, considering how Republicans are considered to be such 'extremists', it's likely the MSM will gloss right over it. I'm sure they'll search for what they consider the flaws in the Rep plan while highlighting the superiority of Obama's plan. There, done.
