Obama Keeps Options Open

President Obama indicates the Democratic plan for fixing health care is still an option. The president spoke as the two sides of the aisle prepare to meet in an effort to reach a compromise on the issue.


A Healthy Alternative

The President's looking for input,
From the GOP side of the aisle,
For overhauling our healthcare
With a plan that is seen as worthwhile.

The Democrats and the Republicans
Hold a summit of sorts come next week;
In an effort to reach a compromise
That will pass the taxpayers' critique.

Failure to break up the logjam,
To overcome present rejections,
Could present a dilemma for Democrats
In the upcoming off-year elections.

But if compromise isn't forthcoming,
And opponents just can't break the knot,
The President says there's the option
To pass what the Democrats got.
