  • where were you people when Bush was expanding government and signing unpaid for Health care legislation?

  • wow - fuck this failed government - what a New Christian Soldier thing to say. YOu'll keep paying your fucking taxes and nobody is tired of anything because with all of our problems in government, we're still the best game in town. Don't like it, move to Somalia and let me know how their gov't is operating. yeah.

  • health insurance companies should not exist. They don't do anything other than handle the transactions between you and your health care providers. Americans should realize that corporations (who aren't controlled by anyone other than their wealthiest investors, and motivated only by profit.) are to be feared far more than their own government, which consists of citizens they have elected and whom they can hold accountable. If your motivations are based on fear, fear corporations, not democracy

  • You do realize that your remarks suggest you are in favor of a socialistic form of government in our country. I have no problem with your right to your opinion. I don't agree with it, but you have your right to what you favor.

  • Don't forget this in Nov. 2010. Vote, citizens, vote!

  • I hate to say it but given the obvious realization that we as a people & a country have lost our rights & our freedom, "voting" in all is nothing more than a pretend sense of control to the people. Our minds have been made up for us politically & all need to see & realize this. To corporate higher-ups we are viewed as a joke & a non-threat to the system. In order to show we as a nation mean business we are gonna have to show that we are not gonna be taken advantage of anymore. This is a start.

  • Why does the government need to get in the business of health care insurance when there are over 1,300 insurance companies in the US? Open the competition to all instead of allowing only a handful to compete!

  • My best friend's father got out of the hospital yesterday. He is NOT fully covered with medicare for prescriptions. He is covered for only 20 days in a rehab after 2 amputations & 2 heart surgeries in 3 wks time. He'll run out of Medicare to cover him. His life savin after that. His entire life savings will be GONE in 2 months. In just a blink of an eye...gone! His story is just one of millions. I hope you never find yourself in this precarious position.

  • My prayers are with this gentleman you mentioned, and you're right, I hope I'm never in that position. My point is that the government does not need to be involved in the health care business. If all states would allow full-market competiton to all 1,300 insuarnce companies to compete for your business in the same that auto insurance companies are allowed to, everyone would have access to AFFORDABLE health insurance. As for Obama, he has yet to tell us who will be paying for his version.

  • I'm a Christian so I'll accept any prayers gladly for my family friend. The insurance company's have ignored us, raised our rates & ignored letters & phone calls. I see what you're saying but have you ever lived in a country with the HealthCare Obama is talking about? I have & honestly, I didn't like the dentists, but the doctors & hospitals were great. Our Health Care won't cover dentists anyway, so you're safe. Why do you guys care so much? It won't affect you...you're insured...many aren't.

  • As a responsible, tax-paying citizen who is a father and a friend to small business owners, I have to care. I want everyone to have quality insurance, but this is a complkicated matter that has been fully thought through by the president and the Dem leaders of Congress. As is, it will cause our country an unmanageable debt that will be left to my children to pay. As is, it will cause a huge tax increase for my friends who are business owners to pay. There is a better way to do this.

  • Should have said "has NOT been fully thought through by the President & Dem Congress" ....sorry

  • You may or may not be right. We'll never know. The Repubs have no alternative to offer. I'm tired of them blocking everything Obama does when they come up with nothing. I don't trust ANY politicians, not the Prez & cetainly not any others. If they just want to play God with our lives without offering an alternative, then it's futile for them to argue. They don't care. A friend of mine has cancer & is uninsured. We are not a third world country. This is America, not Bosnia.

  • First, I' am Libertarian leaning conservative independent. I'm also objective concerning all parties. To be fair, the Repubs have not been invited to the table by Pelosi, Reid, & Obama. There may have been symbolic gestures, but nothing of substance. A reminder for you: the Dems originally tried to jam their healthcare proposal down our throats without debate. To be clear: something has to be done. It must be well thought out, and the cost must be evenly distributed.

  • You can tell by the these town hall meetings just who's going to be around 2010 and who's not. Very interesting

  • PUTITTOGETHER Your right ,but we are to blame also. We have allowed this for years, by not stopping there corruption. Than we elected them over and over even thou we knew they were corrupt.Next election we have a chance to make right what we have failed to do ,and that is the hold the ones we elect to do as we the people tell them to do.

  • If Georgia didn't receive monthly welfare checks and food stamps - SOCIALIZED PROGRAMS, BTW - the entire state, with the exception of a few counties around Atlanta, would starve to death.

  • Bullshit

  • What did you expect from Georgia?

  • He handled that very well.

  • OH, and FYI... just because the few are loudest, doesn't mean they represent the majority. We witnessed what the "majority" truly wants in these past few elections... get over it. Such poor losers.

  • Funny, most Americans voted Democrat to end the so-called "War on Terror" and impeach Bush.

    So far, nethier has happened.

  • The damage from Bush's war is done and truly cannot be stopped. Whoever voted for him..thats your vault...AS the bible said the blood is on his hands. You can't expect anyone to stop that chaos...although soilders have been pulled from Iraq.

  • What about those who voted for the War on Iraq? That would make Obama due for some biblical justice. Oh and Hillary too.

    Oh wait, most of the Democratic establishment.

  • Right...it's like everyone forgets that Congress voted to go to war...it is propoganda to say that it was Bushes war. It's what people say that don't know what in the hell they are talking about or are so stupid that they believe everything that they hear in a campain speach.

  • Yeah and put in Pakistian by President Obama to keep fighting a war...how is that different? Don't forget that "Bushes War" was...voted by a super majority of Dems and Rep...after 9/11...I know that you may not remember this but EVERYONE was for the war after 9/11...until it was time to run for the presidencey this last year...then "I was decieved"...which of course was a bunch of bull shit!

  • We didn't JUST find out we were deceived.Activists protested on this constantly & were frowned upon.You just weren't listening. We did not vote on the war. It was Cheney and his puppet that put the fear of God into this country. We were led to believe that a Fatwa could be put out by the Islamic Republic to send the Muslims out to slaughter us Don't you remember the fear they incited?If not, check out the Fox archives. They're always good for inciting fear.Iraq was blamed for what Al Qaeda did.

  • No, everyone was NOT for the war. We went to war with the WRONG country. Remember that? Osama bin Ladin is still out there, but Iraq was invaded. Try to recollect this now. I was not for the war in Iraq. I couldn't stand Sadam Hussein, but I didn't think we had a right to invade their country. Many of us felt that way. Remember the protests? I lived in NYC before during & after 9/11 & I protested the war..

  • For a "Christian" nation we've certainly failed miserably. Our greed overwhelms what little humanity remains in our souls. As the BIBLE says: Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God. What a giant hypocrisy we are... greed, racism, dishonesty, violence... such a joke.

  • I give credit to the Congressman for having the meeting and sticking it out for 4 hours against such vocal opposition. But apparantly his mind is already made up. He will be representing only a minority of his constituency. He is a socialist who needs to be given the pink skip in 2010.

  • Democrats and republicans are destroying this Country.

  • jayphx1, what world do you live in and where do you get your news? They just announced yesterday social security payments across the board will decrease. You call that solvent? You need to look at the numbers closer rather than spewing lies and disinformation.

  • Fuck this Failed Government!

    We are going to stop paying taxes into this failed system because all they do is use taxpayer money to pay of their wealthy donors while they screw the poor and middle-class!

    We are tired of these politicians lies,crimes, rip-offs, and frauds!

  • Thats what I'm talking about man! where were you 8 years ago? Oh wait..you were voting for Bush..heh

  • Let's start to break down the HR 3200 bill and see what were working with.

  • Town Hall Meeting Not Town Hall Reading! Ha,...

  • What a rude bunch.

  • If you want him to have it you can buy it for him.

  • conservative tactic # 74

    "If you have nothing intelligent to say, shout over those who do."

  • I believe that's actually a liberal tactic.

  • If this welfare program goes through, you are going to see a mass exodus of doctors leaving this sinking ship for other countries where they don't redistribute wealth to the bottom feeders.

  • Where would this "exodus" go? The Congo, Vietnam??? Every other civilized country in the world has a single-payer, government run health care system.

  • Fuck the FED

  • Critics say the public option is really a Trojan Horse for a government takeover of all of health insurance. But nothing could be further from the truth. It's an option. No one has to choose it. Individuals and families will merely be invited to compare costs and outcomes. Presumably they will choose the public plan only if it offers them and their families the best deal -- more and better healthcare for less.

  • Who's paying you to post these lies? It's a backdoor to socialize medicine. The Federal government fucks up everything it touches.

    PS

    The U.S. is broke and going bankrupt, don't you fucking get it?

  • Yeah and corapations do a great job with everything they touch...shipping jobs off to 3rd word labor..that works. idiot

  • And what does that have to do with bad legislation? Nothing..and that is why people are pissed. BTW...corporations ship jobs to other countries because we have the 2nd highest tax rate in the world and capitall gains kills companies. It cost money to move jobs and it would be cheaper to employee people in the US if it was fair...so it's simple cut taxes and companies will grow in America. One other things...these big corportations...they employ a lot of people and pay most of the taxes in the US

  • govt run everything has no competition therefore can be a giant vacuum of tax dollars. when employers are faced with "low cost" care (govt) or are given tax incentives to go with the "low cost" care which will they choose in the future? of course, the govt health care. sure, you have a choice now but not for long. single payer system; that is what the fed govt wants. wants you dependent on fed govt for everthing. bread and circuses - Romans. US - new Rome. Time for real change.

  • we also elected obama BECAUSE WE WANTED HEALTHCARE FOR ALL!!!HE IS DOING EXACTLY WHAT WE ELECTED HIM TO DO,,, THINK ABOUT IT HE RAN ON THIS HEALTHCARE FOR ALL PLATFORM,,AMERICA VOTED HIM IN THE LARGEST MANDATE IN 30 YEARS,,AMERICA WANTS THIS ,,,WE VOTED FOR IT,,THOSE THAT OPPOSE IT REPRESENT A FRINGE MINORITY VIEW,,,,

  • (AP) - Millions of older people face shrinking Social Security checks next year, the first time in a generation that payments would not rise. The trustees who oversee Social Security are projecting there won't be a cost of living adjustment (COLA) for the next two years. And they want to fund healthcare and they cannot even get social security and medicare right.

  • The Feds do get Medicare and Social Security right. Those programs are solvent for at least another generation, with overhead expenses hardly existing in Medicare. It's the private sector that can't get health care right (putting aside the 50 million uninsured problem and the fact that the life expectancy rank for U.S. citizens competes with that of the Costa Ricans). Oh, and according to the Commonwealth Fund-- we might see health insurance premiums double in ten years!

  • The Congressman has about 600,000 people in his district & is very popular there.

    But a few people believe they can come & be rude & obnoxious & "win".

    They're just upset they've lost & don't know what else to do but shout.

  • Obamacare Illegal Immigrants: Obama waas right when he said providing illegal immigrants with health insurance has never been on the table.

    Rep. Heller introduced an amendment that would use two citizenship status verification systems, the Income and Eligibility Verification System (IEVS) and Systematic Alien Verification for Entitlements (SAVE) programs, to establish an individuals eligibility to obtain the bills proposed affordability credits or enroll in the public insurance option.

  • You fuckers that have nothing to lose need to sit down and shut the fuck up. I LOVE MY HEALTH CARE... GO GET YOU OWN... I WILL NOT PAY FOR YOURS.

  • The health care you have is not yours. It's not like your house that you paid for with you money. It's not like the car that you bought and it's not the like the computer you are using. It belongs to the company you pay to get it. If that company goes bust or takes it away from you because they feel the need to you will not be talking so tough. You will be really screwed.

  • Well said. Thing is, whenever we make sense in this Health Care issue, they change the subject to ACORN or the Constitution. Simply, they are un-American for not helping others.

  • But you do pay for their health care. Your premiums that are so high, is because we pay for others. So, if you mean what you say, you wouldn't mind helping others out with that very same money.

  • Anyone that is stupid enough to want the federal government to manage their health care should never be allowed to vote. Thanks to the FEDs we are 12 trillion in the hole and that will double in 10 years (probably faster) not counting the 50 trillion in unfunded liabilities. And you retards want to give the FEDs even more power.

    "A government strong enough to give you everything is a government strong enough to take everything from you."

  • this man handled an immature rude and drunk crowd with class, i would have just left!

  • Who said they were drunk?

    Why are you making stuff up?

  • don't know how to vote your comment. rude & drunk.... down. You leaving........UP

  • These Congressman is a complete MORON. The thing I'm noticing most about all these Town Hall Meetings is we've a TON of morons in Congress.

  • Stupid rednecks are useless. We should just kill them or move them to Russia where they belong with their kind (white kind). losers

  • Maybe we should send you back were you came from instead....

  • I'll even pay the Fed-ex charges to pack him up and send him off.

  • or simply stop funding your entitlements

  • Fucking inbreds and hillbillies... Why don't they just secede from the union?

  • then who would pay for your welfare? without the "Fucking inbreds and hillbillies" paying taxes who would pay for your socialis........I mean Progressive agenda? HMMMMMMM just a thought.

  • Isn't it the "commie", liberal states that send more money to the federal government than they get back, in order to give the stultified states in the deep south their handouts??!!

  • Why did he even put up with this crap?

  • Democrats dont live in the real world.

  • I'm tired of President Obama and the liberals who control Congress insulting us, think they are smarter than everyone else like we are servants, calling us racist, and calling us a mob. I'm tired of their double-talk. I'm tired of their bait-and-switch shell games. I'm tired of being avoided by my public servants and ignored. They have forgotten that they work for us.

  • No I think you have it backwards... where were the town meetings when the war on Iraq was started? if there are town hall meetings, how can you say you are not being heard? who is bringing guns to these meetings? is the public servant right there trying to talk? but getting shouted out? if you cant see the truth and carry guns to public places and support bush, people will think you are stupid!...

  • Iraq: dont know and dont care. Cant do a thing about that now and what does that have to do with this?

    Guns: as long as its not a violation of the law they have every right to. I got my NRA card in my back pocket.

    Should be shouted down when they lie to your face and have no idea what they afe talking about. Nancy Pelosi and the left called dissent the highest form of patriotism. Now that the shoe is on the other foot its Un_American.

  • ???so let me get this straight... Bush gives 600 billion dollars to his war monging buddies in no bid contracts, cost us 5,000 american lives, kills over 80,000 Iraqi lives, causing muslem hatred of America to rise and making America usafe, but you dont care???

    But If Obama tries to help the minimum wage worker that pores your coffie everyday get affordable Insurance, OH HE IS A SOCIALIST TRATOR TO AMERICA? WHAT? WHAT ABOUT THE GUY WHO GAVE AWAY American lives and treasure?

  • May I ask, what have you ever done for your country?

  • I don't mind your opinion one bit, but your remarks about Pres. Bush are ignorant lies. You don't have to go there to make your point.

  • I live in Atlanta GA. Alot of people hate David Scott in the Smyrna area. Scott is very arrogant. Scott does not listen to the people in his district. Scott doesn't read the bills and votes strictly party/lobbyist. Before this townhall meeting, I was at downtown Atlanta near ACORN headquarters. I saw ACORN trying to recruit pro-ObamaCARE to attend the meeting. ACORN didn't have much success. Scott was pretty pissed, because the townhall meeting consisted mainly of anti-ObamaCARE people. lol

  • Would-be Civil Master Bishop is nothing but an ignorant, arrogant POS leeching off our taxes. CongressCritter Bishop, you'd better use MapQuest to locate your local unemployment office...you'll be needing it after the next election.

  • Cyber -- you say Congressman Bishop had best look for the unemployment office.

    I really don't think that's necessary - he won last time by about 40%, so I seriously doubt the GOP will waste money trying to bring him down.

    But still in a dist w/ 600,000 people you're gonna have some ppl agst him & they can be loud & disruptive.

  • They take for granted everything our ancestors died and fought for. They believe that America was just an idea, laying around waiting for someone to pick it up, and that if our ancestor's hadn't created America, then their's would 'probably have gotten around to it at some point.' America is the biological outgrowth of thousands of years of Anglo-Saxon common law...it didn't happen by accident. Nor did the Third World.

  • One question- why in the hell do people vote for Democrats?

  • Because of our bleeding hearts. we started Entitlement programs to give a hand up, but some made it a way of life, that created a need for more tax dollars, which created more poor people (not by choice), it's a never ending cycle. every time the federal Government gets involved it makes the problem worse. now when a politician steps in & Panders to all those poor people...........we get Obama.

    that & the fact the Republicans were taken over by neocons who started stripping away our rights.

  • if he does not want the JOB he was elected for, then he should step down and find other employment......

  • There's another way...vote his ass out of office.

  • These idiots in Washington have over-reached and overspent for too long now. They have awakened a sleeping giant.
