If you didn't get the chance to see the ABC News/Barack Obama health care show at the White House, you will want to watch the Cato Institute's video. It summarizes Obama's points and offers counterpoints that you will find very interesting (via The Corner):

Are you that naive, that ignorant, that you would continue to think this man cares anything of the constitution of the United States? Why do all you bloggers tip toe around the fact that he would like to be the Hugo Chavez of the US of A. He does want to give up power in 4 years 8 years ever. He believes his press and believes he will conquer Capitalism as every fascist has in the past. He lies through his teeth to everyone so they will not question him and then he does the exact opposite. These writing are getting to bore me with the see he is not for democracy. Please give me some real substance to a story we have heard a 1000 times since he was running for pres and now 6 months after.

A trillion here and couple trillion there. Do you see how easy it rolls off the Kenyan Teleprompters tongue? Talk about the need for hip wader boots when dealing with this lying marxist. It makes me sick, but I pay cash for doctors visits since I'm unemployed and have no insurance. You would be surprised how reasonable it is when you tell them you have no insurance and want to pay cash.

Fixed it, ordi. Of course the words "Cato experts dissect..." were at the stop of the YouTube video screen just staring me in the face and I still wrote Heritage Foundation.

Hmm. Watched 7 pounds this weekend. "In seven seconds I destroyed my life." In less than seven minutes we see how he plans to destroy our health care system.

Nice to see them point out the dissatisfaction on the faces of the people in the audience. I'm sure President Obama thought he did a good job of selling his health care plan to the country, but it seems he failed to win over a significant number of people, including myself. We can only hope that this plan ends up DOA in Congress.

I really hope progress is made with today's town hall. I will be all ears. If you're going to be at work during the town hall, the app I always use on my iPhone for White House updates will be streaming it, so you can listen to it conveniently here: .iheartradio.com/whblive. Hoping for the best today.

Hmmm, I wonder why he only talks to people who agree with him. He bought the AMA by saving them from the already failed Medicare program. I am a nurse and I do not support this plan and I no longer support the American Nurses Association.
