Health care lobbyists hold “White Trash Reception” on Capitol Hill. Hilarious, right low-income, white Americans?

Via the National Journal

Next week, health care lobbying group Strategic Health Care will go to Capitol Hill for their Big Do. That would be the Big Do they’re calling the White Trash Reception. What a knee-slapper, huh? No wealth gappy alienation could ever come from this!

Think Progress nails it:

This event’s theme, however, drives home an image of high-paid Washington lobbyists gathering to snicker at low-income, white Americans.

And those low-incomers can’t afford the lifesaving drugs that provide all those nice, big profits for Strategic Health Care lobbyists.

Who could possibly be offended by that?

Let’s ask Willard Romney what he thinks. Oh wait. He won’t answer.

JUST IN: President Obama will go to Capitol Hill Sunday

By GottaLaff

Right now on CNN (liveblog):

He’ll address Senate Democrats in a meeting. He needs to broker this deal with fellow Dems, and the leadership is hoping this will move things along. They’re hoping his presence will speed things up, but they want more than that, they want decision. Especially on the public option.

They’re hoping he’ll move those who disagree with him along.

He’ll be on the Hill around 2 pm Eastern.
