WASHINGTON (February 9, 2010)--Answering reporters' questions Tuesday after a meeting with congressional leaders of both parties, President Barack Obama said both sides have to give ground on health care.
He said he’s willing to start from scratch on legislation as long as the final bill achieves his goals.
The American people want the problems of cost and coverage addressed and they don't want another year of wrangling in Congress, Mr. Obama said.
Mr. Obama said he's willing to work on medical malpractice limits, which Republicans favor, but said Republicans have to come around on the need for comprehensive legislation to reduce costs, expand coverage and rein in insurance company practices, he said.

Bob: Talking to you is like talking to that lifeless wooden fence post out in the pasture! Therefore, you can talk to yourself, as I don't like waste my time! One last comment to you: Even when confronted with facts & the truth, you twist & spin them as you wish, just as Republicans are telling OUTRIGHT LIES to the American people in an effort to regain their power so their failed policies can lead Anerica off the cliff again while they enrich themselves. As I have said before & most likely will say again: A vote for a Republican is a vote against America!

I know enough about statistics and sampling to know that there is no 100% accurate way to measure the temp all over the globe. How far apart are the instruments that do this? By the way...socialism doesnt work...it has failed in every nation that has tried it. Also, name a time when the demos have made anything better. To the majority of Obama's socialist agenda the Repubs are not the part of "NO"....but rather Hell NO!

Bob, I now know your REAL profession--You are a Weatherman who knows more than all the experts at NASA! LOL! Like most Republicans, a few FACTS have you denying, denying, denying--but the facts don't lie. Keep on deceiving yourself about the real world while we Democrats clean up this Republican-caused mess & work to make America a better place for all citizens, not just for the rich & special interests. You & Republicans are part of the problem==not part of the solution. FYI: The Southern Hemisphere is south of the Equator. The Northern Hemisphere is north of the Equator. Didn't you see a globe of the world when you were in school?
