Time to face the facts, Mr. President...
Posted by Spokesblogger on September 07, 2009
In his speech today at a big union Labor Day picnic, President Obama claims that those who oppose ObamaCare are in favor of the status quo and "want to do nothing." In truth, it is President Obama who has opposed cost-neutral, market-based reforms to our health care system.  While in the Senate he chose the status quo over voting for health care reform. For example, then-Senator Obama  voted against allowing Americans to purchase health insurance across state lines(110th Congress, 1st Session, Roll Call 305). Later, then-Senator Obama voted against expanding access to small business health plans which would put small businesses on the same footing as large corporations(110th Congress, Session 2, Roll Call 119).
