C-Span has asked to televise the final health care debates. As promised by President Obama.
The answer from the White House--NO.
Instead, the Senate and House Democrats are planning to completely bypass normal conference meetings to work out differences in their respective bills. This will keep all negotiations away from the public--and away from Republicans, who won't be invited.
This is called "ping-ponging", something which has increased leaps and bounds under Democratic control of Congress.
Transparency, indeed.
