“Senator, I don’t want to get you in trouble, but I’ve actually seen you smiling, laughing, hanging around – with Democrats. As if you were friendly with them. I’ve actually seen that with my own eyes. My question to you is: In terms of bipartisanship, in terms of openness, in terms of a welcoming manner, there is a health care bill now being drawn up in the United States Senate – largely by the majority. Nobody knows what’s in this bill. How about trying to open the door as a start to like getting together by telling us what’s in this bill?” asks Morning Joe senior contributor Mike Barnicle of Sen. John Thune (R-SD) during a conversation about the GOP health care proposal. Listen to Thune’s response here.
