Comments on today's Healthcare Summit:
Human Events: "When our forefathers set forth to create a free and democratic republic, they wanted to make sure that they created checks and balances within our government to prevent one party or one body of government from having absolute power over the people. Our leaders would be wise to remember this."
Another Great Healthcare Charade by Rep. Ted Poe (02/25/2010): "As legislators are being summoned by the executive body this week, one cannot help but recognize the irony.

While the president certainly has the authority to propose ideas for legislation, it is far beyond his constitutional power to create it."
The Blair House Witch Project, by George Neumayr (2.25.1): "Barack Obama . . . is the self-appointed custodian of "common ground" while not moving an inch towards it . . . Whenever Obama is forced to describe in detail what he is actually proposing, it becomes clear that his goal is not expanded coverage but expanded control."
CNN: "Jon Kyl, the Senate Republican Whip, pointed out that a major philosophical difference between the two sides is who should be in charge of the health care system -- the government or private industry."
CNN: Senate Republican Whip Jon Kyl: 'There's so much in the bills you [President Obama] have supported that puts so much control in Washington."
CNN: House Republican Whip Eric Cantor(see video): "There is a reason we voted no. It does have to do with the philosophical differences you [President Obama] pointed out. It also has to do with our fear that Washington can define what are essential health benefits."
