No blind trust

As I listen to President Barack Obama eloquently explain his reasons to push his health-care plan, I simply cannot believe he thinks we will just blindly trust him because of his good looks and smooth delivery. By not telling the American public how we will pay for health-care reforms, even when asked specifically, he evades the real answers. Logic tells us that it's basically impossible to cut health-care costs by implementing all the expensive changes and reforms the president is suggesting. Math tells us there is no way we can get out of debt by going deeper in debt.

I hope Americans are smarter than he thinks we are.
