alan grayson is a douche and a bully, it's obvious by his body language he doesn't give a shit about anybody but himself, all he is doing is grandstanding. What the liberals fail to understand is this: If the federal govt. were to shrink in size and power, end the Fed, send bernanke packing to Siberia, bring the troops home, inflation would decrease, THEREFORE making healthcare, gas, groceries, etc. AFFORDABLE.
@deeppurple28 You watched the GOP debate? You misunderstood if you did. They were talking about the guy that shows up in an emergency room that voted for Obama handing out Marxist literature. That's the one that should die. Not me or my grandma.......We are JFK democrats. When JFK was around you were just a squirt running down your daddy's leg from all the fun with the family dog.
@edward9145 Listen Gramps, Wolf Blitzer asked a Hypothetical, you do know what that word means right you old fuck? Well then, now that you found out what the term means, yes, the GOP plan is DIE Quickly!

You retarded piece of dog shit, what about the children who are born every day with Cancer you retard? Go fuck yourself you waste of air!!

all that think alan grayson is bad for governement, you all fail to look at the message that he is delivering to the senate for the american people. alan grayson is an american hero in my book. this whole gibberish about democrats and republicans is utter nonsense. alans right, listen to the message.
But hold up. This tax break is something that was bipartisan. Doesn't really sound like it, but both moderate dems and moderate reps have vouched for it.
Yea it contributes to the deficit, so glad its not permanent. But looks like they're starting to make something work.
look at what they call him out on... name calling! what the hell does that have to do with what he is really saying?? they are taking what he has to say and stretching out as far as it goes. so absolutely ridiculous.
Obama care; another reason why America sent loud mouth Grayson packing Nov 2, 2010. Obama care will do nothing to help Grayson’s mentality.

Obama has laid out the Democrats' healthcare plan: either bow to the Imperial Federal Government and buy health insurance or go to jail. Never mind the Constitution. first of all, I can't afford insurance, but even if I could I wouldn't. I fart in the direction of the Democrats and the MORONS who voted for this pig of a "president".
@cincyblows Did most of the last decade slip you mind, when the republicans let the economy go to fuck, wasted money in tax cuts for the rich, two wars in witch we never achieved our goals? Oh yea easy to forget meatbag.

@davehutchinson67 Yeah grayson stands for the Obama which stands for Wallstreet.. dont believe me? Wallstreet supported Obama 3 to 1 over McCain in campaign donations.. Goldman Sachs Group Inc. got what they wanted.. If you watched this debate, even wolf stands against him.. He didnt let people talk he called a group of people childish names.. Apparently he doesnt know neanderthals became extinct ages ago!! I think he is a potty mouth
Blitzer and the rest of those CNN reporters (so-called) need to be in another line of business. They are drinking water from the Republicans well....trying to get Grayson to apologize.
Did they ever ask that republican if he want to apologize the one that called the President a liar? No! Wilson just started to raise money from it. And those CNN people act as though they couldn't believe their ears. Shit they should be used to it by the republican party right now.
Grayson is a true nut job..This guy needs some serious mental help...face it Grayson, your fake nutty worthless ass is out come Nov...such a sore loser & liar.
Grayson's use of language is actually as dangerous as Rush's language, people who think this is cool are as lacking in reading history as those who think those think Rush is cool.
in a secular society politics defines our level of ethics. Once decorum is thrown out we are in trouble.
Countries rush into anarchy really fast, especially if their debt is 12 trillion dollars and extreme partisans dehumanize the other side, you are already one step away from political violence and disintegration
Wow that woman is so freaking annoying. She's just making Grayson fire more of his fire. They're discussing name calling? when the republicans have been name calling their whole lives? Wow
the plain simple fact is; the republicans are interested only in those of whom they can gain something from ie insurance companies or rich parties that can either line their pockets or fund their campaigns,democrats are the same only difference is the crats are viing for votes from despair ridden voters.
"Those emails with scientists faking stats says otherwise."
Except that there weren't any actual emails that said so. There were TWO supposed emails which said the word "trick" in them, and if taken completely out of context sounded like they MIGHT MAYBE speak of something HALFWAY shady.
But when you actually understand what they were talking about.....
Well lets just say that douchebag right wingers are physically incapable of letting evidence influence their decisions.
oh yeah they have never said anything critical of Obama on MSNBC.. CNN has been moving to the right when they started to see how much money FOX fake news makes and they wanted to get some of that..they don't mine looking the other way when truth goes out the window
no I said MSNBC has criticized Obama many times..Obama is weak and possibly a corporate agent but Bush surpasses any president when it comes to being the worse president
when are you going to wake up and look at the bigger picture? lets start with president kennedy being murdered when he went against the fedral reserve ? every person i know claims not to trust the gov, say that they all lie but dont want to admit to how far they are willing to go, the bottom line in the earth is over populated, wars are created to slow this affect, 911's happen to give them reasons, codex alimentarious is meant to starve the population ,,,talk to people you know ..inform them
joseywalesful.. have you ever been admitted into some kind of mental health facility? or on medication for any mental health related issues? just interested?
Grason has balls and it takes balls to tell it how it is. This option is a critical element of health reform. It will provide greater consumer choice, encourage fairer market competition and control escalating health care costs. It is vital to true health reform for all in America ESPECIALLY ALL CHILDREN
i like how wolf calls him out but alan changes the subject constantly. he's so immature. of course republicans have proposed legislation it's a complete joke what he's doing. 2:00 Oh please!! I don't even wanna hear your side of the story. I'm right you're wrong. republicans are evil end of story. What a joke... what a joke.
You have to judge things by their RESULTS and NOT their INTENTIONS. That's the single key issue Grayson doesn't understand. I mean, this guy really is a joke...
Grayson- telling it like it is. Are you going to appologize, what a fucking joke. Is Bush going to appologize for lying to the country about War, is Cheney going to appologize about torture. Unbelievable.
@ASentinel2 you'll have to fire republicans while you're at it if the progress keeps up. And that's what Dems said about the gop 2 years ago, that they're extinct and that the world will become liberal. Deja vu much?
@LordKaisen piss on 2 years ago...a very low spot in American history when we elected a black man for the sake of being black and not for being the best man.
Meanwhile, piss on republicans if they are progressives too... Just more of the Dumocrats are right now... We'll see who these new folks become over the next 6 years and dump 'em too if they fail.
America is waking up to their civic duty to be informed and pay attention and definitely not get info from MSNBC LOL!!
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Alan Grayson = MORON!!! LOST HIS MIND DIMWIT!!!! HE IS WHATS WRONG WITH THIS COUNTRY! REPS AND DEMS NEED TO STOP THE BS NAME CALLING AND DO A REAL JOB!! NAME CALLING IS FOR LITTLE KIDS!!!!!
Republicans act crazy and use extremist rhetoric, CNN gives no shit. A Democrat calls out the Republican's regressive policies, CNN now suddenly cares about civility in political discourse. CNN fucking blows.
This is what happens when a person who lives in the reality based world clashes with a bunch of rich corporate tools. Any informed person could go on that show and mop up the floor up with those idiotic talking heads. And all that "tough talk" from the RNC about Grayson losing his seat next fall is downright hysterical. You fucking morons don't have anything to offer America but lies and BULLSHIT. As for Castellanos, I'm not surprised that he's been exposed as a fraud..most Repugs are.
Alan Grayson rocks! GOP consultant Alex Castellanos, has repeatedly appeared on CNN attacking Dem health care plans and the public option, which is strongly opposed by AHIP.
Castellanoss consulting firm, National Media, placed over $1 million of TV advertising for AHIP, according to info obtained by Media Matters. AHIPs most recent $1 million ad buy attacks the health care plan as a threat to Medicare. CNN doesn't care about conflict of interest at all.
Knuckle dragers all. They had many years to do something constructive but all they can do is say no to anything that would benefit the average citizen. Alan is my hero!
AT LAST! A democratic Congressman who points out that the emperor has no clothes!Rep. Alan Grayson speaks with directness and honesty. Wolf and the Republican pundit allude to "nutcases" at the beginning of the segment then proceed to introduce Grayson. So much for CNN objectivity; at least Carville strives for it. The Republican party doesn't like getting a taste of its own medicine- throwing out outrageous remarks without foundation... how dare the Dems do the same? Pass the public option
About 1.5 million families lose their homes to foreclosure every year due to unaffordable medical costs. Over the last few years, health insurance costs for small businesses have increased by over 100%
Thank you Alan for having and displaying some sort of nuts! Republicans have been saying whatever is on their minds and its about time that a Dem says fuck ya'll and I'm gonna stand up for whats right dispite what people think. Fuck politics
Poor Republicans.... a Democrat uses your playbook and you do not like it... wah wah waaahhhh.
Republicans did NOTHING when they were in power on HC. They are no trying to look like they are doing something HR3400 and guess what? Their bill will does not address the fundemental problem of insurance companies that are employer based is not a good model for capitalism.
Exactly how expensive does healthcare have to get before we decide to have an honest, meaningful conversation about this? Rush is out there talking about how this will keep you from getting your next raise. Ive got news for you Rush. Maybe not for you, but for the rest of the world it already has. Sixty-two percent of all bankruptcies filed in 2007 were linked to medical expenses and almost all of those individuals had health insurance.
Alan Grayson is apparently a 6'4" clown (the tallest on record) getting all he can out of his 15 minutes of fame. He's been in Congress a whopping 8 months by his own account. His overanxiousness combined with his ignorance and willingness to shout "fire" when there isn't any is a recipe for political failure, especially now that people's eyes are opening. You gotta come stronger than that Congressman.
Forget whether the guy's right or wrong for a second. The bit I find amusing is that the Republican attacks are at least this strong (with people implying things like Obama will have death squads), but the minute the other side starts playing as hard as they do they demand an apology.
Repukes are pathetic. They fight for fetuses and then let thousands of people die every month because they have no access to a doctor. These degenerates don't give a shit until it happens to them and then they cry like pussies for help. Half of the 46,000 people dying and 700,000 bankrupting are repukes.
Liberals consider socialism based on the amount of money the rich have. Also they consider the idea of spreading the wealth. So if you have read my past comments you must consider that it is not going to happen. It will only encourage corruption.
Isn't the plan suppose to help the poor? How will they help them, since a majority of poor are smokers? This plan will cost them more since they will have to by the most expensive or lie and get fined up to $25,000.
How about if you Obama/Greyson lovers reply to this comment your going to be fined up to $25,000, because ignorance is not covered in this plan either.
By the way, how much logic did you use to criticize someone? You see, I backed my criticism with an explanation. Where is yours?
By the way, I'm fining you $25,000. Logic goes way passed using proper grammar on a blog.
It's hard for me to assume that you didn't understand anything I wrote. Therefore I have to assume you are a bitter liberal basher. You certainly are not going to get paid for that type of criticism. I short hand all the time in technical writing. Guess what idiot I get paid.
It would be nice if this was a fair debate but its them vs him, no mediating they constantly talked over him, then go back and go no no hes being unreasonable, with their fucking smirks I understand they're paid to but fuck if they don't feel dirty they should
The legislation contains no verification mechanism to ensure that illegal immigrants do not apply for benefits. Republicans offered an amendment to fix the loophole -- it would've required verification using existing methods that are already in place to verify eligibility for other federal benefits programs. But, when they were asked to put the language of the bill where their words were, in a party-line vote, House Democrats rejected the amendment to require verification and close this loophole
I love how the dems call out Joe Wilson saying he's "uncivilized," and that we're back to "town hall" days, yet here stands Rep. Alan Grayson, unable to allow another to finish their sentences, unable to allow another any sort of time to respond to the idiocies that are his thoughts. How should the GOP get a word in when the rest of the White House treats Republicans as Rep. Grayson did here?
Keep talking Grayson, you're making the GOP look better with every word.
Joe Wilson's outburst was out of order and what he said was in fact false. The bill said right in it that illegals were not covered.
What Grayson said may have been unartfully stated but was basically right. The republicans were in fact waving around blank papers while Obama spoke. If the republicans were really serious about health care, they would come forward with good ideas. Politically if Obama accepted a good republican idea, Obama would look good. Rep's just can't stand the idea.
@OrmEmber: No... it just means insurance would be able to be sold across state lines. The US offers shopping amongst other things to occur across state lines, why shouldn't you be able to shop for insurance from a different state?
@billblow3: That's because Blizter isn't talking about what the GOP did - he's talking about now. The purpose of the (attempted) debate is what happened NOW, not when Bush was in office.
And the real heroes are our military, not some smug representative.
"Shopping across state lines" The Repub. keep saying that. Know what it means? It means you can shop for Blue Cross prices in Arkansas, Florida, or California! Blue Cross is one company; so basically, what they are saying, is you can compare prices, as long all the stores you buy from are the same one.
The Republican's don't care. They Don't Care.
Unfortunately, now Democrats like Max Baucus and others who have been bought off don't care, either.
It also means "federal preemption". This would prevent states from in any way regulating the industry. We would be stuck with exactly what the insurance companies want to stick us with.
Republicans are not so stupid that they don't know that this is what would happen. They just care more about the the money they get than the good of the public.
Listen to Wolf Blitzer cut the Congress man Grayson when he started talking about the mess Bush creative over the last 8 yrs. Everytime some one brings up the mess the GOP has done to this country after 8 yrs, they change the subject.
jmjfanss i want you to think about this.. it works in other countries.. why is it america cant do it? maybe you should be looking at the republicans as the dimwits who are paid out by special interest groups and are selling U.S. rights to corporate greed of america who are screwing it for all its worth.. P.S. how bout you read the bill because its plainly clear you have NO IDEA
Rep. Grayson is a true HERO. Tell them like it is Grayson. The rethug represent the insurance company who tells people to go home a die if u don't have insurance. Insurance companies are the real DEATH PANEL.
Obama pitching for Chicago was, as is the case for most things these days, based on corrupt political paybacks. see also: Valerie Jarret, Habitat Company, Grove Parc Plaza.
The answers are out there if you look people. Don't let nationalized broadcasts control your truth. Do your own research, don't listen to the corrupt mouths of Republican and Democrat mouths in today's world.
Grayson is awesome. Doesn't get pushed around and calls it like it is. Blitzer is an absolute fool, being manipulated into fake Republican manners - the same guys who heckle the president and hold up papers during his speech to taunt him. They've thrown out all the rules, but when someone tries to give it right back to them, they try and pretend to be all civil. And then idiot journalists like Blitzer and that woman get manipulated into backing their arguments.
This clip illustrates what is wrong with this country.

Did they ever ask that republican if he want to apologize the one that called the President a liar? No! Wilson just started to raise money from it. And those CNN people act as though they couldn't believe their ears. Shit they should be used to it by the republican party right now.

Grayson's use of language is actually as dangerous as Rush's language, people who think this is cool are as lacking in reading history as those who think those think Rush is cool.
in a secular society politics defines our level of ethics. Once decorum is thrown out we are in trouble.
Countries rush into anarchy really fast, especially if their debt is 12 trillion dollars and extreme partisans dehumanize the other side, you are already one step away from political violence and disintegration

The legislation contains no verification mechanism to ensure that illegal immigrants do not apply for benefits. Republicans offered an amendment to fix the loophole -- it would've required verification using existing methods that are already in place to verify eligibility for other federal benefits programs. But, when they were asked to put the language of the bill where their words were, in a party-line vote, House Democrats rejected the amendment to require verification and close this loophole

Joe Wilson's outburst was out of order and what he said was in fact false. The bill said right in it that illegals were not covered.
What Grayson said may have been unartfully stated but was basically right. The republicans were in fact waving around blank papers while Obama spoke. If the republicans were really serious about health care, they would come forward with good ideas. Politically if Obama accepted a good republican idea, Obama would look good. Rep's just can't stand the idea.

"Shopping across state lines" The Repub. keep saying that. Know what it means? It means you can shop for Blue Cross prices in Arkansas, Florida, or California!

It also means "federal preemption". This would prevent states from in any way regulating the industry. We would be stuck with exactly what the insurance companies want to stick us with.
