Obama told Congress on Friday not to "lose heart" in moving quickly to hammer out legislation that would check rising health care costs and cover millions of uninsured Americans without adding to the federal deficit.
But Republican proposals have gone nowhere in Congress, and the GOP isn't signing on to the Democrats' proposals -- and that didn't stop Obama from heralding "unprecedented progress."

"When are Democrats going to admit that their claims about their government-run plan are pure fiction? Repeating the same disproven myths over and over again will not make them true," said Michael Steel, spokesman for House Minority Leader John Boehner of Ohio.
"Instead, Democrats should scrap their costly, job-destroying proposal and work with Republicans on a real plan to give Americans better access to affordable health care."

Obama needs to stop rushing this new health care proposal if he himself hasn't read it yet. He keeps pushing for it and repeatedly states that he did not read it. So if he hasn't read it yet how can Obama know what he is talking about when asked questions about it. You have to step back and laugh at this guy because you can't take him serious if he has no answers to the questions.
