President Obama arrives to deliver remarks on health insurance reform at Ehrnfelt Recreation & Senior Center in Strongsville, Ohio, March 15, 2010. (via)

Every time I see him at a podium in front of crowd, I can’t figure out why he hasn’t been pushing for health care this way from the beginning. THIS is where Obama gets shit done — not sitting at a desk bickering with a bunch of whiney Republicans.

I don’t believe he’ll ever convince politically-driven asshole Republicans, but I have no doubt he can convince the American people that this is good for all of us through the Obama brand of honesty, straight talk, and intelligence. And, you know, talking to us like we’re adults instead of telling us what’s good for us like we’re a bunch of toddlers.
