Obamacare secret meetings being investigated

It seems no one knows what's in Obamacare, but if Rep. Fred Upton, (R-MI) has his way, at least we might find out who put what in it.

House Energy and Commerce Committee Chairman Fred Upton is expanding his investigation into the meetings between special interest groups and the Obama White House that set the stage for the passage of Obamacare, sending document requests to 12 industry groups and unions that played a key role in the negotiations. . .

The industry groups and unions subject to Upton’s request [for documents] are AARP, AFL-CIO, AdvaMed, AFSCME, American Hospital Association, American Medical Association, America’s Health Insurance Plans, Blue Cross and Blue Shield Association, Business Roundtable, Federation of American Hospitals, PHRMA, and SEIU.
Surprise surprise. The White House isn't cooperating. Would take too much time.

It would be interesting if any real information came from this. May we hope for it?

If anyone will be unhappy it will be his far left supporters--the right already knows about the deals. But oh how they hate those evil corporations that make money--even those that keep us alive.

Murray sez:
Unfortunately we are faced with a daily dose of secret deals and "under the covers" type of corruption from this transparent Administration. Then we get to listen to lies, exaggerations, and deception from the President as he parades around the country with his staged campaign photo ops. We are sooo fortunate. I don't want to think about what shape this country will be in by the 2012 elections. Somebody please start impeachment proceedings immediately!
