Well, we listened to the entire thing. If I ever hear the word 'incentivise' again I will absolutely scream.

On the other hand, while most of what he said was double-talk and blaming Bush for this mess, there were 2 points I think worthy of thought. 1) There should be a way to have a medical test once and those results be passed along to every doctor you need to see instead of having each doctor run the tests again. It is a waste, and it happens all the time (we've experienced it ourselves). 2) Pre-existing conditions should not prevent someone from getting insurance.

Other than these, I pretty much got nothing from the hour I wasted listening to the drivel. Bottom line is BO has no clue, Congress has no clue, and we have a huge mess.

I did think it interesting that his cherry-picked questions (were these pre-determined?) did not address at all unemployment and no new job creation - which is the real problem everyone is worried about.
