RNC’s leader Michael Steele has done it again…this time he got his talking points from the GOP that Obama’s plan for health care is an “experiment” that will ruin the country. That word is so important to the GOP talking points that DSteele used it some 30+ times in one short speech to the Press Club.
Steele also seem to like the word “cabal”, which by the way means some form of intrigue, my guess that it also is a talking word for the Repubs. The word implies some sort of secret plan or intrigue. the RNC has decided to run with Steele’s speech.
Republican officials said they were supplementing Steele’s speech with a round of television advertising designed to oppose government-run health care. The 30-second spot, titled “Grand Experiment,” criticizes recent government aid to the auto industry and banks as “the biggest spending spree in our history” and warns of “a risky experiment with our health care.”
But the Repubs “man of Steele” has his kryptonite and it is the word “policy”. When asked a question that was not part of his read speech, he said “I do not do policy” That is pretty telling in my opinion….the GOP has NO policy on health care with the exception of NO. Their policy is to be in opposition regardless of the consequences for the American people. Maybe the RNC should look for someone smart enough to actually have ideas on policy.
They are playing a delaying game……it work in the 90’s for health care reform….thew more time that the GOP can delay any vote the better the chances are that their half-truths, misinformation and out right lies will have a positive effect for them.
