Krauthammer: If Dems Didn't Hear the Rejection of ObamaCare from Mass. then 'They Need Hearing Aids'

[FiendsInRedSatin1]

Krauthammer is dead on correct.

[uzimodem]

The Hammer has spoken!!!

[uzimodem]

Charles is the man.....love to listen to him and reading of his columns. Smart guy.

[Hometheaterdoctor]

Let's remember the Republicans are the party that passed prohibition

in the 1920's, opposed giving the vote to women, sold 4200 TOW rockets to terrorist Iran for releasing hostages (Reagan) and read

My Pet Goat for 20 minutes after Bush II was told the US was under attack on 9-11-2001. With this kind of judgement and wisdom do

you want them making any more decisions??

[uzimodem]

@Hometheaterdoctor :well, if you want to talk about history: Lets remember the Democrats are the party that: Created the KKK Terroized and denied blacks their constitutional rights for almost 100years Ran the old south Hung black people (among other things) Got us into WW2 Got us into the Korean War Started the Vietnam War Opposed the Civil Rights bill have made blacks the slaves to the govt with entitlements Yeah, Great history there boy.

[BeantownJim]

We are sick of this obamacare here in Massachusetts This is a rogue govt'!

[DrDaveHardy]

Who cares what the majority of Americans want. I want free health care, and I want it now. Our Democrats better pass it now. I don't care what they have to do.

[hookem0886]

@DrDaveHardy thats exactly the problem with America right now, I want I want I want I want ME ME ME ME. Screw what the consitution has to say and the priniples this country was founded on, give me what I want.  That is the problem.

[MyCelticHeaven]

Dr. Krauthammer was paralyzed in a diviing accident in his first year of Med School and still graduated with his class.

Very accomplished and brilliant. Too bad his health keeps him from holding an office or even flying to events.

[micsc50]

@achzdck Correct but it won't work! The voters will speak big time in november about his left wing agenda.

[MarkG45]

doesnt this kraum guy WEAR a hearing aid?

[2PlayTube]

Krauthammer is a stud!!!

Obama is such a pussy...he just doesn't get it! He does not understand the priorities of the people...

[aptex]

Fox News in a nutshell: Overpaid, chicken hawk ass queens that sold their souls to peddle lies, half truths and propaganda to the dumbed down masses. At least msnbc had the balls to put a openly gay lesbian on her own show. I hate shitty ass cable news but I despise Fox News with a passion.

[TAMARLANE]

Seems you are the only dissenter/hater here today. And you didn't even address the issue discussed in the video. Just a hatemonger going around expressing your obvious angst at being homosexual. I feel your pain, brother.

[aptex]

@TAMARLANE it doesnt matter whats being discussed since 98% of the time they're either praising Sarah Palin or bashing B H Obama. Theres plenty of reasons to hate fox news: They helped the neo-cons hijack the tea party movement, it used to be about restoring the constitution and now it aint about crap. They gave that snake Glen Beck his tv show instead of judge napolitano. It goes on and on.

[Yereviltwin2]

Krauthammer is a boring robot, but damn is he smart and always on the money.

[Yereviltwin2]

I know about him being paralyzed and its sad. For entertainment value, hes hard to watch because he is so boring, but he is absolutely brilliant in the substance of all of his articles. Hes one of the smartest conservatives out there today.

[zolon5]

He is paralyzed from the neck down. Is brilliant..with two degrees, law and psychiatry. Numerous Pulitzer Prizes.

[zolon5]

Thanks for the reply. I don't think it's boring you mean, but I know it's painful because you know how hard it is for him to speak. I suspect he is only able to stay off a respirator for a short period of time. Not only brilliant, but very courageous.

[EFISHANT]

Washington post - ABC poll !!!!!!

Just google it Einstein!

[EFISHANT]

Start with the PEW research center!

[EFISHANT]

Americans polled overwhelmingly supported the public option!

Conservatives are liars! Americans did not reject health care legislation - only about 20 percent of the Right wing LUNATICS did!

They are the same ones that still think Bush did a " heck of a job!"

[steveh342]

@EFISHANT

Where can I find these poll numbers?

[Freethought42]

Dems had a majority in the house and senate for a long time and didn't pass a public option.

Sounds to me like you should be trying to convince them.

[PerryLogan]

Keep in mind Mr. Krautmammer voted twice for The Worst President Ever™.

One poll showed that 80% of swing voters--the ones who voted for Obama in 2008 and Brown in 2009--want the public option.

[1969BALLER]

go back to canada Hammer

[lpbl2004]

Lets see what happens first before all the complaining that this meeting is a political ploy for Obama to save face. Something good might come out of this meeting. If it is a waste of time than yeah, I see why people on the right are complaining. Look here, this nation is full of liberals and conservatives, unless both parties find a way to get over their differences and move forward on issues, nothing will get done.

[lpbl2004]

Can we at least see what this meeting will bring about? There is a possibility that it could spur some form of Bipartisan healthcare bill thats beneficial to the nation. Its amazing how Krauthammer is already critiquing this meeting and saying its all for political show before the meeting has even happened. I am an independent, I despise both parties, I dont care for Obama's previous healthcare bill's, but I do want some form of healthcare reform.

[MRobert21]

Krauthammer is totally right as he almost always is and he has been analyzing politics longer than you, or even I, have been alive. The oldest stunt in politics is to say on any issue where you can do nothing or want to do nothing that you are holding a bipartisan summit / committee on the problem because it never goes any place. It is just a photo op for all involved and then they can blame each other for doing nothing. GOP did not stop Marxist health care, Dumbocrap in fighting did period.

[reefrunner9]

To put it all in perspective; true the trial lawyers will be ok, the pharmaceuticals will survive, Ford builds good trucks.

On the other hand, the Federal Government uses 1955 formulas to compute Poverty Charts that oppress Senior citizens who often split pills, use food banks when their groceries run out , lose their homes because of severe illness, I could say more......They play political parlor games in D.C. while up to 34% of the population is either unemployed or poverty stricken..

[tucker4182]

[tucker4182]

Those of you who bash fox news here are the same people who have no idea what we are doing to this country with all the spending. Never in history has a nation been in debt like we will be! We are fast approaching a point of no return, with our debt being held by foreign governments we have limited options on paying it back. I promise that China will want interest and textiles sent to them so they can continue to manufacture cheap goods that we will by back. This will be a never ending cycle!

[glcm437]

We are beset on all sides by thieves and liars. On one side we have big government socialists, on the other we have greedy big business republicans. In the middle is the average American being crushed by these two groups whose only aim is to serve themselves . this is very much a jobless recovery. If we do not bring back manufacturing to America we are doomed. We need to be free of forigen oil and the goddamn American oil companies that profit off our misery.

[zolon5]

Without the swearing, I agree with you. But our manufacturing couldn't survive the union wages that were no competition for for foreign goods.

[glcm437]

@zolon5 yes i tend to swear a little..!

i worked in a factory building trucks 10 hours a day for four years....union wages are justified...thats some hard ass work man.....those companies could compete but they want to pay huge salaries to executives! ..yes class warfare is alive and well in the factory enviroment.

[NoCensorshipYT]

The Hammer is right!

The only reason Obama wants to meet with the republicans now is for a photo-op and talking points because the elections are coming up.

Obama has NO sincererity about being bi-partisan. IT'S ALL POLITICS!

[btc8128]

hammer is never right

[RangRing68]

Hammer is always right!!!!!!!!!!

[BasilTheBasilisk]

@btc8128 In fact, Fox is never truthful.

[DCRunner27]

If fox news is never truthful, I guess we don't have a job problem right now. I guess we don't have a president that doesn't understand what cap and trade does to business. And i guess malpractice suits in America are not a big deal at all. Then again you probably still think John Edwards is a moral citizen as well and Barack Obama is a perfect compromiser with Republicans

[btc8128]

Give me a break, you really what to point the high moral finger around because? There is grocery list of Republicans who are just as dirty as Edwards, I dont like Edwards but at least he was cheating someone of the opposite sex. For a 2 year stretch I was beginning to think you had to be in the closet to be conservative.

[DCRunner27]

Ha, very true about Republicans, course I hate corruption in any form, which is the essence of the problem in America when we take favoritism on what should be looked down on no matter what. It is pathetic when we are forced to pit against eachother

[adamitshelanu]

The real issue is Jobs Jobs Jobs.

The super critical issue for all of us is the likelihood of a "jobless recovery." Another way to say that is that workers were not really laid off, but permanently fired: the job slots are gone (for a variety of reasons).

Barry The Man is a community organizer. He organized people who never worked. He agitated to get his clientele a survival subsidy.

Thinking about JOB CREATION is ALIEN to the President. That spells DANGER to America. But that's who he is.
