Bipartisan Healthcare Agreement Doubtful

President Barack Obama says Democrats and Republicans may be unable to agree on reforming health care. After a day of disagreement between the two sides, Obama indicated Democrats may try to pass their plan for overhauling the system without GOP support.



Healthcare Hassles

The Democrats and the GOP
Held seven hours of debate
About what to do on health reform;
With no agreement on its fate.

Each side stuck to its previous grounds,
Both insist they need a plan.
But came to the end of their day of talks,
As far apart as when they began.

The system needs an overhaul,
As seen through Democratic eyes;
Republicans say it costs too much.
It's time, it seems, for compromise.
