Ignatius J. Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 On Friday, President Obama went to a gathering of house republicans for a Q&A. The result was what may be one of the best debates on health care and really obama's first year that I have seen. It kind of turned into parliamentary question time a little, but maybe we need something more like that and less like the state of the union, something that really lets both sides air their positions. I especially liked that this got obama from behind his teleprompter and allowed him to be himself, which is to say, the guy I voted for. I am curious to know what some of our more conservative members think about this. Should the president face questions from his opponents more often, or did I just like this because Obama had the chance to speak his talking points last?
