That's one way to make health care reform look like a snap

Politico:
A day after his big Cairo speech, President Obama is saying 'the moment is now' for action on Mideast peace. 'I am confident that if we stick with it, having started early, we can make some serious progress this year,' Obama said this morning at a joint news conference in Dresden with German Chancellor Angela Merkel.

President Obama today visits Buchenwald, the concentration camp his Uncle Charlie helped liberate at the end of World War II.


PS:
ASK NOT AND YOU SHALL NOT RECEIVE: Obama says he has not yet asked Germany to take any Gitmo detainees. 'Chancellor Merkel has been very open to discussions with us,' he said this morning. 'We have not asked her for hard commitments and she has not given us any hard commitments.'
