A senator was being interviewed on a radio talk show and was speaking about bills being pushed through quickly without allowing time for debate and understanding the bill. This senator was discussing how bad things get slipped in and pass through if the bills are pushed too quickly.
“When you rush these budgets that are a foot high and nobody has any idea what's in them and nobody has read them…and it gets rushed through without any clear deliberation or debate then these kinds of things happen.”The year was 2004. The speaker was Barack Obama, newly elected senator from Illinois, and he was criticizing President Bush for rushing legislation through too quickly. He maintained the need for deliberation and debate or “these kinds of things happen.” He was speaking with Randi Rhodes, who has conveniently forgotten that he said those things on her show.
“And I think they're attacking it this way: saying we're going to push 3 or 4 different things. Because they believe the opposition won't have time to unite and kill all of it.”

Obama says opposition is using scare tactics.
“The number of uninsured Americans is growing, premiums are skyrocketing, and more people are being denied coverage every day.”barackobama.com
“This is an ideological fight for the country. This is the top two percent influencing the big medical, lining the pockets of the conservative Democrats."
Barack Obama“I suffer no illusions that this will be an easy process. It will be hard. But I also know that nearly a century after Teddy Roosevelt first called for reform, the cost of our health care has weighed down our economy and the conscience of our nation long enough. So let there be no doubt: health care reform cannot wait, it must not wait, and it will not wait another year."
“Rapidly escalating health care costs are crushing family, business, and government budgets. Employer-sponsored health insurance premiums have doubled in the last 9 years, a rate 3 times faster than cumulative wage increases. This forces families to sit around the kitchen table to make impossible choices between paying rent or paying health premiums.”
”Two out of three personal bankruptcies in 2007 were a result of medical debt… Without health care reform, health care spending will rise to $4.4 trillion, more than one‐fifth of the economy, by 2018 and the number of the uninsured will reach 61 million by 2020.”
“no one should have to choose between taking their child to a doctor and paying the rent.”
“The problems with America's patchwork health care system are fast reaching a critical mass…And medical studies reveal an alarming extent of poor-quality care that affects everyone.”
The “status quo" on health care is "threatening the financial stability of families, of businesses, and of government. It's unsustainable, and it has to change."

A DC think tank has produced a memo on how the lefties should proceed in convincing (fooling?) the American public that socialist health care is for their benefit.
Most of the current words used to describe and sell reform are computational words — cost, access, quality…They are Mr. Spock words, not Dr. Spock words. … You need to use terms that are warm, evocative and emotional.Using the term “stability” is the safest path to achieving their goal, writes the think tank, as the article notes.
The House Democratic Caucus has already incorporated the “stability and peace of mind” message into its daily talking points, according to the June 23 memo distributed to members. There are now four buzz words: cost, choice, quality — and stability.The bottom line for the lefties is the same as always – don’t come up with a smart idea that is logical and then use the facts to win the people over. It’s much easier to come up with more ways to grab power and then lie, deflect, and accuse opponents. You can always fool enough idiots to let you get your foot in the door and then it’s too late.

Unemployment reached a 26 year high during the Bush administration, and the networks trumpeted the fact and devoted most of their newscast blaming the President for the sagging economy, which continued to spiral despite record deficit spending. The media highlighted members of congress demanding that something be done immediately and calling the President to task for allowing things to get so far out of hand.
