For better or worse Obama didn’t really hand down a plan for Healthcare reform.

Correct me if I’m wrong but didn’t Clinton do that and he end up getting skewered for trying to tell the congress what to vote on?

Meanwhile Obama just tell his congress he wants them to whip up some healthcare reform, and what comes out of it is too liberal to get passed in the senate because he didn’t provide them with directions of what was the least he would settle for…

Damned if you damned if you don’t it seems like…

Well, I think Obama overlearned the lessons from Clinton’s whitehouse.

What do you think about the rather odious provisions where individuals are compelled to buy an insurance product ? Not sure whether that passes constitutional muster.
