This is all for show on the part of Obama and the liberals in Congress. They do not have and have never had any intention whatsoever of coming to the conference table honestly to compose a bill that has some of what both parties want leaving behind some that they want. They're making a show of including the Republicans without ever having any intention of including anything they want nor excluding anything they don't want.
I've said it before, and I'll say it again: the VAST majority of the Democrats in Congress (hell, and everywhere else, too, very likely) are nothing more than a bunch of liars and hypocrites.
While not quite so strongly, I feel that a lot of the RINOs in Congress are the same way. Whatever it takes to get elected is what they'll say and/or do.
I think the Democrats realize that they're going to lose a lot this fall, and so they're trying to rush this through to prove they can get something done, regardless of the fact that a majority (or near majority) of the folks don't want this, and only about a third do want it.
There's no more honesty in politics. We need to vote ALL of these people out of office, and start over.
