The health care summit summarized
I couldn’t watch the health care summit live, but I finally caught up this weekend. In case you also missed it, here’s a quick summary:
The participants arrive, ready to discuss this vital issue in good faith…
Republican leaders take a brief moment prior to the president’s arrival to prepare…
Democratic leaders huddle briefly…
Senator Lamar Alexander attempts a last-minute wardrobe adjustment…
After the GOP opening statements, the president kicks off the meeting by reviewing some key points…
A Republican senator asks for clarification…
Now the debate begins in earnest, with the GOP’s fiscal idea man, Paul Ryan, outlining the party’s philosophy on the role of government and monetary policy in a lively exchange with the president…
During a break in the action, Senators McCain and Boehner relive a memorable moment…
Meanwhile, President Obama attempts to craft a compromise with Representative Blackburn…
When the meeting resumes, the president listens intently as Senator Boehner outlines his position…
President Obama and Vice President Biden begin to suspect their Republican colleagues aren’t bargaining in good faith…
And you know what? They’re right! But the truth will come out…
And We the People will prevail…
Because this is America. Hallelujah and amen! THE END.
