Health Care Update: The Death Panel

Caption: Aetna Chairman, CEO & President Ronald Williams (L) speaks as Pennsylvania Insurance Commissioner Joel Ario (2nd-R), Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius (3rd-R) and West Virginia Insurance Commissioner Jane Cline (R) look on as they meet with other insurance company executives at the White House on March 4, 2010 in Washington, DC. The meeting was to discuss the problematic health insurance premium increases and the Obama administration’s desire for the country to have affordable health coverage.

When you combine last week’s clever photo op with Obama’s well fashioned speech in Glenside, PA on Monday, it seems the White House might finally be getting the messaging.

(As recently discovered, shame is a powerful weapon.)
