Default Since the speech was his usual campaign, selling mode

I found no substance regarding what it is his so called health care reform id going to do. For whom? How will it affect the post 65 benefits received currently? How will it affect the inadequate prescription coverage for post 65 folks currently getting? Will it reign in the pharmaceutical companies practice of patent protection for the sake of keeping prices too high? How will it affect the abuse billing by doctors? By hospitals?

A politician promising that the astronomic cost of the ill defined reform will be deficit neutral...if that ain't a campaign type stretch then what is?

Do I think we will be better off with what is being proposed? Impossible to tell with what we do not know....see questions above.

I know I am growing weary of his style of we have to get this done ASAP. Why?

Oh by the way....how is the economy and all the hurry up and pass bail outs doing? Who knows? Nobody had time to understand them either before they were rushed in.

I do not accept anything Obama says in a campaign-selling speech. No details...no substance...just same old same old yadda yadda.
