When The Going Gets Tough....

The President in Training Pants can be counted on to hit the campaign trail.

That is just what Barry O is doing today to peddle his all powerful, omnipotent, national health care plan. All on our dime of course. I wonder if somebody is keeping a running tally of all these trips he is making to either raise campaign funds or to go peddle whichever government takeover plan is the flavor of the day.

President Barack Obama, facing challenges to his ambitious health care overhaul from Congress, is visiting supporters outside the capital and turning to them to muster up momentum for one of his top legislative priorities.Obama on Thursday readied to fly to Green Bay, Wis., to talk directly with voters about his proposals to spend $1.5 trillion over the next decade to cover uninsured Americans.

The part of the story that really scares me is the part where he is taking the White House propaganda corp with him to hear "stories from average Americans" on health care issues.

Yeah, average Americans carefully screened and prepped with to ask the correct quetion or to give the "compelling story that is so emblematic of the problems in our health care system."

Administration officials said the president's speech in Green Bay would contain no new policies, but would instead put Obama - and the traveling White House press corps - in position to hear directly from people who are affected in the existing system. Those stories, Obama's political aides said, would be key to selling the final product.

Our press corps sold their souls to the devil long ago, so bloggers keep your eyes out on who gets to ask questions or which stories we hear and then just like in the past get to work to find out the real story, just like when they wanted to shove SCHIP down our throats. Something they were able to finally do by backroom deals and late night passage.
