3. Snowe claims she was never invited

But a top aide to Snowe disputed that account on Thursday. "The President never once in all their meetings or discussions ever told Senator Snowe she had an open invite to attend any future health care meetings," John Gentzel, Snowe's communications director, said

2. He did... She declined, citing the improrpiety of her attending

Obama has embraced transparency in the healthcare reform debate that he said we would have. Frickin' liar.
