With just days before President B.O.'s proposed "bi-partisan" health-care summit, the White House released a new blueprint that the Democrats say they will ram through Congress...with or without Republican support.

So after election defeats in Virginia, N.J., and even Massachusetts, and amid overwhelming public opposition, Democrats have decided to give the voters what they don't want anyway.

The "Presidents Proposal" manages to take the worst of both the House and Senate bills and combine them into something even more destructive. It includes more taxes, more subsidies and even less cost control that the Senate bill. And it purports to fix the special-interest favors in the Senate bill...not by eliminating them - but by expanding them to everyone.

One final insult, neither The President, his family, nor anyone in Congress is subject to the health-care provisions they say are good enough for us.
