What did President Obama have to say about the american nurses association?
From CBS: “September 10, 2009 12:44 PM Obama Rallies Nurses in Push for Health Care Reform Posted by Stephanie Condon The morning after his special address to a joint session of Congress on health care reform, President Obama on Thursday once again turned to nurses to keep his push for health care reform alive. “Nurses, you have a lot of crediblity. You touch a lot of people’s lives. People trust you,” Mr. Obama said to the American Nurses Association in Washington. “If you’re out there saying it’s time for us to act, we need to go ahead and make a change… then we will bid farewell to the days when our health care system was a source of worry to families and a drag on our economy.” The president first rallied support from the American Nurses Association for his health care plan in July, when he said the country was “closer than ever” to comprehensive reform. Since then, the president lost control of the dialogue surrounding the debate as lies and partisan arguments took hold at town
