He promised TELEVISED (C-Span) meetings all along, I think it's about time he actually did it. The GOP has already stated they want them to scrap what they have and start over, they want tort reform and cross state lines insurance.
He's only tring the bi-partisan approach now because he has no choice

I was fine with one comment about the hypocrisy, thats all it showed to me so I'll leave it at that.
About the meetings, you know there were tons of meetings regarding the healthcare issue all summer and autumn long. People were more interested in the ridiculous death panel crazies though. So you cant blame people for being unaware of all the meetings, but you can blame them now for not doing their homework. There were tons of meetings and hearings on cspan. But as the president said, he should have worked harder to arrange cameras for the few meetings he had with republican leaders and democrat leaders seperately. He has said the logistics and timing didnt make it easy, but you're right, he should have arranged it. Thats what HE has already stated on the record, it's not me saying it.
So, how will that affect peoples opinion and participation in the upcoming meetings he is scheduling? Will they just back out and claim no give backs or I called shotgun? I guess we'll have to tune in and find out.
