during the 2009 debate about that health care bill
President Obama and the his administration claimed
I look of course we'd love to do single pair but we just you know
college you just can't so the same for the public option
almost public option love the public option scandal their part Republicans
was that are
when in reality there was no evidence there are problems with their armored
all now with their homes gonna post led of course they would have been right
but they didn't even try now we find out because brian Schweitzer that in fact
not only were they not trying
in the case a single-payer they were actually working actively
against it behind the scenes how do we know this will brian Schweitzer
what was introducing President Obama's speech he was talking about health care
and he said Nizza from a report on MSNBC
choice to raise a few eyebrows we introduce Obama by declaring his
unabashed love for Canada's government run healthcare program and he said look
they do just
couple miles or across a border right there in Canada
and now they're doing a good job they have single parents this for 62 years
their goods health care system and ranks better than the US health care system
so well that wasn't really know if you're a Democrat or progressive that
make sense right
not President Obama doesn't when President Obama came
up to speak he wanna make it very clear that he was not a choice our site
you want anybody to mistaken for progressive he said
quote I'm not in favor of a canadian system
I'm not in favor British system I'm not babe a French system
what we've said is let's find a uniquely American system
yeah nice little I'm there in other words hell no no interest the
single-payer
not clear enough well squire fiber schweitzer was the governor montana
right afterwards because this is what MSNBC reports next
after the speeches were over Obama said Schweitzer down for private talk
Cornish right through the president said his voice wasn't helping the health care
debate
and ask them this step away
mean I feel like that
your voice is not helping us your in other words your progressive voice
not useful here would not be interested we're not gonna go for a single pair
we don't want single-payer its and I look think about it
he didn't want single-payer if you were progressive and you want to grab
a better at adjuster cheaper but
system that was more efficient if you would actually split the difference you
wanna come up with an interesting plan but instead president while I had no
interest in that
right so if you're not convinced yet let's go to kathleen Sebelius
now MSNBC reports remembers used at
have HHS Public Health and Human Services acid the administration's
program will be drafted
specifically to prevent it from evolving into a single player
pair plans to billions says so back in 09 I think it's a very much the case
and again if you want anybody to commence people that
talk to the single payer proponents who are curious that the single-payer idea
is not part the discussion so
there it is from the horse's mouth so
Sibelius Obama administration never ever ever ever ever wanted to do single pair
fought against it tooth-and-nail
behind-the-scenes because the well there's only two possible options there
I think
3p generous one is well
they didn't want single pair they didn't want the public option because
their conservative they agree with the heritage foundation and that's why they
did
ultimately what was their heritage foundation plant that's the simplest
answer
I know blows people's minds but you don't judge a man by his
words as the Bible says judging by his beats right as exactly waited
second option is present Obama so sad and weak
that he's like I don't know I mean
look said a week is one option
like late you were sold scared
but they would call you a leftist that you left out
a perfectly good option that would help you in negotiations right
but what but then the third option is
your stupid week s anybody could tell you that would help you in negotiations
but he'd well armour no no I think if I give that my
final proposal in the beginning the republicans who like me so much the bill
just give it to me
but that's not stupid what do you call it right but I don't think it's because
he's we carry stupid
or just the worst negotiator in American history
I think that's the system you like see grease with the agrees with Mitt Romney
agrees with the heritage foundation
that's why he'd up to their plan and that's why he fought against every
progressive proposal behind-the-scenes
so news flash for you the president's not a progressive
