According to The Hill newspaper, Democrats reached a tentative compromise on health care just days before Massachusetts elected Scott Brown. Senator Tom Harkin (D-IA) stated that an agreement was reached on January 15.
Of course, it is an indictment of this Administration’s transparency pledge that you’re reading about this news in February and didn’t watch the discussions live on C-SPAN. Senator Harkin’s revelation underscores just how deceptive the White House was in negotiating the future of health care behind closed doors and how important Scott Brown’s victory was in defeating ObamaCare.
A few million Americans in Massachusetts made their voices heard loud and clear, but judging from last week’s State of the Union Address, the White House is still not listening.
