Savings Experiment: Snow Removal
When was the last time President Obama ever talked about health care? Last night it was Afghanistan. He just came back from a state trip to Asia. Next it is climate in Denmark.
Meanwhile, the clock is ticking. There just aren't enough days left this year to get health care done and Senator Harry Reid's clock management might be as bad as Philadelphia Eagles coach Andy Reid's clock management -- maybe worse.
The question is, are we watching Obama distance himself from health care? Is he watching his poll numbers and feeling a bit like this is now Congress' play and if they don't get it right, he did his darnedest?
Sure seems like it.
More on the clock ticking later today, but as I listened to the president talk about Afghanistan I can't help but think this is about as far away from health care reform as you can get and maybe that's the distance from the issue he wants these days!

The whole health care thing was just a shine-on all along -- misdirection, misdirection, misdirection.
If you can get the dupes to go along with a plan to defraud 'em under the guise of "reform", well ... great!
If they balk, you've kept 'em talking non-stop about it while you were up to Something Else -- like, say, ramping up the corporate money-making machine Over There.
Too cynical for you? Stick around, you ain't seen nothin' yet ...
