President Obama Makes Surprise Call To Gail O'Brien

[nikeunltd1]

i dont understand, did she try to get health insurance the last minute? we get insurance early in life to prepare use for unplanned events like this.

[LaRaZa18xx]

It would have been better if Obama just spoke to her instead of the lady saying the president will talk to her.. much better reaction

[TheSnorlax7]

Obama has a kind heart and the right intentions. He is definitely a good man, but I want more conservative politics. ;P

[PhotoShopChannel]

Thankfully the UK has the NHS, I hope for the sake of the US the health plan works out and Obama stays in the white house.

[CUWHIP97]

i learned math today OBAMA < bush

[Tweetybac12]

Bush didn't do ANY of this

[oODarkEnergyOo]

@Tweetybac12 ... that's because Bush was a Dictator-by-nature ... constrained only by the unseen historical energy of the Constitution. There'll be more like him. Just consider his choice of VP who thought the Queen sent British troops into Iraq.

[LOhaha94]

Why would someone dislike this?. She is now free from cancer, how could you be so horrible!. Oh cause Obama saved her, you don't like it!. Get some sense!!!!!!.

[JacksonXxXWaWa]

sad how people believe in fake politics..

[SixtyFourMan]

Every head-of-state should do things like this.

[Nickthebeartv]

Good guy but a shit president

[TheRover34]

@Nickthebeartv

why is he such a bad president???

[Nickthebeartv]

@TheRover34 Well lets see here first we lost our freedom of speech, then he made it to where any American can be killed or detained without due process. TSA have the right to grope anyone they want to. now SOPA is slowly ruining the internet.

[HellsOnlyBelle]

@Nickthebeartv You do realize that (with the exception of NDAA), your grievances are faults of Congress, not of the President, right? I mean, I'm assuming you understand the basic fundamentals of how American government works. Maybe I'm assuming too much.

[himselfe]

Shoulda cooked meth.

[EricLynchSucks]

Fuck I hate this guys politics, but this was a tear jerker..Fuck me...

[oODarkEnergyOo]

@wakatul123 ... no ... 4 x 4 more years ... in fact ... change the Constitution ... allow the one President to be voted in for 4 consecutive terms. Keep Obama where he is or the US is finished. The whole fucking world needs Obama.

[topgear100]

I like how this is being presented as amazing , fact is, In the UK we have a health service second to none !!!

[spareaxe]

@topgear100 Do you have to rub it in? Great for you guys, we on the other hand have to make that leap someday. Thanks.

[Nogger86Germany]

The USA seem to have the highest concentration of loons in the western hemisphere..no disrespect.

[84Ulysses]

MEGA AWESOME

[sccracing]

GO USA!!!

[1Braddock1]

They need some things we got in The Netherlands.. Everyone has a Health Insurance..

[jrwilson98]

I personally think it is immoral to make a profit off of the suffering of others. Hospitals should be ashamed to make a profit. I think hospitals should decide to non-profit or profit based. The non-profit hospitals should be tax exempt and receive government funding, the profit based hospitals should pay taxes and receive no government support. Doctor office should also be able to choose the same thing, be non-profit and be tax exempt. Doctors play a bigger role in helping people than churches.

[kcjazzy]

I am always thankful that I live in Germany when I see things like this. Health insurance for everyone is a no brainer.

[mrbrendanobrien]

This is really great propaganda! The only solution is the great federal government!

[mnriderdude]

we are not this gullible....... more PR does not solve problems...

[Kountkelobo]

@JimboTHC This is more like leveraging the fulcrum than flipping the mandate. If you don't comprehend the maginitude of insurance industry deception you take side with the grand illusion of health care offered by the insurance companies. That you would pay something to a fund is the same operating principle.

[Kountkelobo]

This is part of the ongoine storyline that lets Americans know the insurance executives of America, who hide their assets in off-shore islands like St, Kitts, have no interest in the health care of their policy holders.

[PETEYPABLO1100]

OBAMA please call me.......ha ha

[withcash]

Just saw this on Rachel Maddow. So moving! 

[local2458]

This is a great story! This is wonderful!

[Beatleha]

A Surprise that just happened to have cameras at her home and Washington to capture it...

WHAT A BUNCH OF PROPAGANDA !!!!

[nordahl154]

@Beatleha

Of course its PR, and may have been scripted, but people like you have to realize that others really have been significantly helped by recent healthcare changes.

[Beatleha]

@nordahl154 Oh you mean a Transfer of Wealth is okay with you????

Medical expenses went UP with Federal Subsidies from your Wallet.

This new Healthcare Bill is pure crap. Maybe you should look into your State's Hospital Charity Laws, and see that you have already paid for it in other taxes... And these taxes, subsidies and profits go to the same people lobbying for this Socialistic LIE.

[Beatleha]

@nordahl154 Obama Shocks Again! In The Healthcare Bill... When You Sell Your Home (after 2012) You Will Be Forced To Pay 3.8% Sales Tax

Another Obama Nightmare

Did you know that if you sell your house after 2012 you will pay a 3.8% sales tax on it?

That is $3,800 on a $100,000 home etc. When did this happen? It¹s in the healthcare bill. Just thought you should know. SALES TAX TO GO INTO EFFECT 2013 (Part of HC Bill) REAL ESTATE SALES TAX .

[nordahl154]

@Beatleha

Yeah, only if you make $200,000 a year.

Get your facts right, typical retarded Republican.

[Beatleha]

@nordahl154 get YOUR FACTS straight...

$200,000 is NOT WEALTHY, in fact compared to the ELITES wealth it is only considered UPPER MIDDLE CLASS...

This shows you how aware you are of history... The average house in the 60s sold for the average yearly salary, in decent and clean neighborhoods, the average home sold for $15-20,000 a year....

So tell me ignorant one, has inflation through taxation worked?

By the way, I'm not a fan of the Republicans either... I follow the money, it's all fraud.

[nordahl154]

@Beatleha

Or rather, do you think a person that makes $200,000 a year would own a house worth $100,000? Absolutely not.

[Beatleha]

@nordahl154 So, this is "Change you can believe in?" Under the new health care bill - did you know that all real estate transactions will be subject to a 3.8% Sales Tax?

When you go to work, invest in a home, who should reap the benefits from your Sweat Equity and sacrifice?

If people were allowed to keep their money, there would be far more money for charity, then paying bloated Government Employees Salaries...

That's just Common Sense
