It's the President's job to put words in the press secretary's mouth, not the other way around.So even worse, the president is being purposely vague on this then, while propsing to spend in the trillions of our tax dollars? But then doesn't this undercut the presidents whole reason for making an a major healthcare overhaul by saying this: Gibbs:"I don't know the exact countries. But i don't think the President is going way out on a limb to say that people in other countries have health care system that they like, just as Americans like the health care system that they have." There he is basically saying that "Americans like the system they have, like other countries like theirs". What does that even mean? I don't think many people are saying the current system is ideal, but in the words of Gibbs himself "Americans are happy with it". Obama's plan may or may not fix the faults, even after spending the enormous amount of money it requires - 1 Trillion+ according to the AP: http://www.google.com/hostednews/ap/article/ALeqM5gap9wCaolRYguYQesA2i2Yr98yLgD98S9QG81 |
