Senate, Obama spar over health plan's pet projects WASHINGTON - President Barack Obama says he wants projects helping specific states yanked from the health care bill Congress is writing.

Bush   Source:(AP)   2010-03-10 Obama urges Dems to seize moment on health care WASHINGTON - Support from his own party in doubt, President Barack Obama summoned more than a dozen House Democrats to the White House Thursday, pleading with them to put aside their qualms, seize a historic moment and vote for his massive health care overhaul.   Nations:U.S.   People:Kathleen Sebelius Harry Reid Nancy Pelosi Barack Obama   Source:(AP)   2010-03-04 Senator Joe Lieberman Helps Obama but Still Fights Dems Late last year, the White House swallowed its pride and quietly asked Joe Lieberman for a favor. Obama was getting ready to deliver on his campaign promise to repeal the 1993 law barring openly gay members from serving in the military when aides asked the man who turned his back on the Democratic Party to take the lead on pushing for the new policy. In reply, Lieberman told Obamas chief of staff Rahm Emanuel, "Let us know what you want us to do." Emanuel replied with a laundry list: work up polling on the issue; start sounding out moderate Democrats and Republicans to see if they would sign on for the bill; most important, find a GOP co-sponsor.   People:Joe Lieberman Rahm Emanuel Sarah Palin Harry Reid Lindsey Graham John McCain   2010-03-02 Bipartisan jobs bill advances past GOP filibuster WASHINGTON - A bipartisan jobs bill cleared a GOP filibuster on Monday with critical momentum provided by the Senate's newest Republican, Scott Brown of Massachusetts.   Nations:U.S.   People:Charles Grassley Harry Reid Max Baucus Barack Obama   Activities:2008 U.S. Layoff Crisis 111th Congress   2010-02-22 Headlines Senate, Obama spar over health plan's pet projects 2010-03-13 Reconciliation bill will be hard for GOP to derail 2010-03-10 Obama urges Dems to seize moment on health care 2010-03-04 Senator Joe Lieberman Helps Obama but Still Fights Dems 2010-03-02 Bipartisan jobs bill advances past GOP filibuster 2010-02-22 Obama unveils new fund to address housing woes 2010-02-20 Bayh the latest exit as moderates leave Congress 2010-02-16 Obama's latest bipartisan outreach: nuclear energy 2010-02-16 White House to post health bill before Feb 25 meeting 2010-02-12 Northeast starts clean-up after record blizzards 2010-02-11 Snow shuts down federal government, life goes on 2010-02-09 Obama's health care summit: Just for show? 2010-02-08 Seats at a premium on planes, trains out of DC 2010-02-08 Obama invites GOP leaders to health care talk 2010-02-07 Obama in Super Bowl health care gambit 2010-02-07 Obama invites GOP leaders to health care talk 2010-02-07 `Tea party' activists eagerly await Palin's words 2010-02-06 January unemployment rate drops to 9.7 percent 2010-02-05 January unemployment rate drops to 9.7 percent 2010-02-05 Brown demands to be sworn in earlier than planned 2010-02-03 Rangel: Lawmakers writing compromise health bill 2010-02-03 Defense officials say lift military ban on gays 2010-02-03 Lawmakers upset over Obama's 2nd anti-Vegas remark 2010-02-03 Fed chief Bernanke wins 2nd term in closest vote 2010-01-28 Dems lack workable plan and retreat on health care 2010-01-26 Senate to take up Bernanke nomination Thursday 2010-01-26 White House advisers promise sharper focus on jobs 2010-01-24 Embattled Bernanke edges closer to a second term 2010-01-24 Top US senators say Fed chief will win second term 2010-01-24 White House confident Senate will OK Bernanke 2010-01-24 Obama hunkers down as health care falters 2010-01-23 Obama concedes health overhaul hit 'buzz saw' 2010-01-23 Bernanke fate in doubt as US Senate opposition swells 2010-01-23 Bernanke second term in doubt 2010-01-22 White House fights for Bernanke support in Senate 2010-01-22 Senate loss puts the burden on Pelosi 2010-01-21 NBC: Conan O'Brien reaches $45M exit deal 2010-01-21 In epic upset, GOP's Brown wins Mass.
