Obama came across as "disingenuous" in small-business talk
President Barack Obama was "disingenuous" in last week's meeting with small-business advocates when he criticized those with "vested interest in the status quo" because NFIB has been advocating insurance-market reforms for years, writes Kent Hoover, Washington bureau chief for the American City Business Journals, in this Portfolio.com blog. And Obama was condescending by talking down to small-business owners as if they cannot understand his health care proposals, writes Hoover, who adds: "They understand it all right; many just don't like it."
