  • The fuck-head didn't answer the question.

  • Comment removed

  • It's always the wrong question. Why does a universal plan that covers all citizens have to be characterized as "lesser quality" than medical services provided by for-profit businesses?

    You're saying it's not possible to have tax-funded medical care of equal or greater quality than privatized care? Why not?

    But the good doctor here very cleverly uses a life-or-death scenario that would have impelled ANY ONE OF US to seek a specialist; not the typical lower-risk needs of 99.7% of the rest of us.

  • did this idiot answer the question ??? whoever claimed that this guy was genius really needs to get their head examined. He makes Bush look like Einstein

  • he always skirts around the answer when its something he knows people won't like. ANSWER THE QUESTION OBAMA

  • I stated my facts from gallop. You need to do some updating. You don't know what you are taking about. The health care bill leaves Congress & Our Idiot President completly exempt. CHECK THE FACTS!!!! You can sure tell your a liberal, and what's the goverment to do everthing for you, because your not able to do things yourself. I'm done with you!!

  • You need to get your facts straight. 50% of Americans disapprove health care. Are goverment officals are not on the same health care plan. They get 100% coverage thanks to the America tax payers. Clearly you're not one of them. I have the right to chose what is good for my family and I. Not the goverment!!!!!!

  • You don't know what you are talking about. I cited the most recent Gallup poll numbers and you cited nothing. You can verify them if you wish, but facts are facts. Members of congress get their health insurance the same way I do-- through their job. It just so happens that the American people are their employer so we pay their premiums, but the bill still absolutely applies to them. If you go to the emergency room without insurance then the rest of us have to pay for YOU!

  • play the whole conversation, its not finished

  • play the whole thing, it doesnt end ther...

  • In other words, Obama to the people: Fuck off

  • If you don't like the government health plan then buy a private plan. It's not that difficult to understand. The government plan would give people a choice between public and private plans, and give people who have been denied insurance a chance to get it. Do you understand, or should I explain it slower and in more detail?

  • @andotech

    Know goverment should tell us what is good for us. These people are public servants, and they work for us. They need to listen to the people, and not to what is good for them. They are not part of this plan, so why should we be a part of it. They can all kiss my ass. The goverment screws up everything they touch.

  • Obama campaigned on healthcare reform and won by a land slide in November of 2008. Polls show that most Americans think that the healthcare bill he signed into law is a good thing (49% approve to 40% disapprove- Gallup on 3-23-10). It appears that the public servants are indeed listening to the majority of Americans. All laws passed in America apply to all citizens- even senators and representatives- so I'm not sure why you think it doesn't apply to them.

  • @andotech - You know what my plan was? No Plan at all. I pay my doctor cash money. But with the new obamacare plan, I pay more to lazy people and according to the new law, if I don't select a "plan" that they approve, then I will be fined.

    Tell me, is that what's in the Promised Land's Constitution? That I have to pay a 2,000$ fine for not carrying their "plan".

  • @andotech its not a choice if its run on taxpayer money, and people get forced to choose between the 2... so ya its not as simple as jsut choosing private care.

  • @andotech MAYBE SOME ONE SHOULD EXPLAIN TO YOU THAT IF WE DONT BUY INTO THE FORCED CRAP PLAN THAT ISNT GOOD ENOUGH OR OBAMA, YOU PAY FINES MONTHLY FINES , SINCE ITS CONSIDERED A TAX IF YOU DONT PAY YOUR TAX YOU GO TO JAIL, TRY PAYING FINES AND PRIVATE INSURANCE .. ITS ABOUT CONTROL NOT CARE HITLER CAN EXPLAIN IT BETTER

  • Can we get a straight answer please?

  • Is it possible to get a straight answer from this guy???

  • Ahh typical republican BS games. Notice how the clip ends exactly when he begins to address the actual question regarding treatment of his family? Sad that people still fall for these lame scare tactics and lies

  • **** obama

  • 5 stars. So tell me; "What has the government been able to manage that has been and continues to be a success?" One answer might be to help the big corporations with regulations that squeeze out the competition. The Corporate Monopoly Protection Team, formerly known as government, is very good at looking after those at the top! Cheers

  • Obama! Obama! Obama! we democrats and liberals are his sheep, we voted for him, we are smart!!!

  • the best dodging of dodging of a question i have ever seen... with all do respect he didn't ask you about your grandmother he asked you of you would use the public healthcare for you family .. and you dodged MR PRESIDENT................... aswer the question and don't try to avade it by using your grandma passing that sir is disrespectful to not only the gentleman who aked the question but to your grandmother also you should be ashamed...........

  • This discussion is not about healthcare ..its about poverty in the united states , cause the former government and commercial elite and banks steals all the money and recourses from its people .... but blame the people them selves

  • this country is run by 2 or 3 big commercial allies and the rest of the people are suffering under it... and the ones that have it a little bit better then the majority just shut up , cause they are afraid of loosing there little Fake Rich Wannabe world

  • Which big commercial allies? There are thousands of insurance companies, thousands of drug companies, thousands of hopitals, doctors, etc. all in the medical game. People need to realize that 85% of U.S. citizens ARE COVERED by health insurance. There are 307 million people in the U.S. 47 million are uninsured. Of the 47 mill 7% are illegal aliens. 5% already qualify for government healthcare and the remaining 3% can afford health care bug refuse to spend the money.

  • if america is "Brave" why is it so afraid for moslims and why does it need so much weapons ...and why has it so many prisons ..... i will tell you why ...cause some dickheads make a lot of money of it ...just like "healthcare" , they don't want you to be healty ...they want you to eat a lot of expensive pills

  • Are you really that ignorant?

  • What the f are you talking about?

  • if you spend all you money on fighting against something .... like indians ...communists ..terrorists .... well then you have little money left for something that is worthwhile like healthy food and healthcare ....no thats for wussies ...lets buy some more weapons and guns , and security and police ..and more space weapons .... is that "american" enough for ya

  • Thats to bad he , if the former president spend all the money of the american people on Fear and Weapons , then you need a black next president to blame for not having enough budget for a simple thing as healthcare for everyone .... its called skillful living ...if your not skillful you gonna create suffering ... and not only for irakis, but also the americans they stole money from , cause you CREATED fear in them ..........

  • Charlie Gibson asked Obama: MR. PRESIDENT WILL YOU AND YOUR FAMILY GIVE UP YOUR CURRENT HEALTH CARE PROGRAM AND JOIN THE NEW 'UNIVERSAL HEALTH CARE PROGRAM' THAT THE REST OF US WILL BE ON ????

    THERE WAS A STONEY SILENCE AS OBAMA IGNORED THE QUESTION AND CHOSE NOT TO ANSWER IT !!...

    Also IT WAS Just ANNOUNCED TODAY ON THE NEWS THAT THE KENNEDY HEALTH CARE BILL WAS WRITTEN INTO THE NEW HEALTH CARE REFORM INITIATIVE ENSURING THAT THAT CONGRESS WILL BE 100% EXEMPT!

    We're being had folks!

  • Where is the video where Gibson posed that question to Obama?

  • Interesting that the video cuts off where it does. Having seen the entire interview, I can determine that this is obviously done to be misleading.

    We all have a responsibility to learn the facts for ourselves from various sources and come to our own decisions based on that information. Anger gets people nowhere. Knowledge is empowering and is always the most effective strategy.

  • Ok, this is for all the ppl who think that everything would be "Great" if there was no stimulus or financial bailouts. It's obvious that most of you don't care about the economics that run the U.S. economy. I listen and look for all sides to at least try to be informed. The same ppl "shouting" me down are the same ones using "racial" and hateful comments that do nothing to unite the U.S. Listen to yourselves. Are you trying to help with solutions or just plain hateful of everyone?

  • One thing you need to ask yourself. How do you get out of debt by borrowing money? You borrow from Peter to pay Paul and you owe Paul more than you owed Peter in the end. That's what the stimulus and financial bailouts do. Both Bush, Obama and congress have created a big mess. The economic problems have been created by a number of people, that's the beauty of a free economy, it rids the dirty players, and economy starts to turn around, instead tax payers owe more in the end.

  • I totally agree with you on that. Ultimate greed buries the middle class and non-political folks. Ultimate power almost ensures that "No one" can sprout "change" in the system!

    After Obama proclaimed he would promote "Change" in Washington, it seemed like all the ppl that felt threatened by the status quo changing started squauking! In public and behind the scenes. Funny how we vote these cats in, and only 5-10% of the things they promise actually get done!

  • Socialism, Nazism, Marxist, etc. Can we have some substance to these labels being thrown out??!!! Incredible! I'm not a genius, but at least if i don't know what something means, I go and do research to find as much info as I can to make an "informed" opinion. Ppl calling Obama a Nazi, while the Bush adminsitration stole our privacy with measures like "warrantless wiretapping". 8 months in, and Obama is worse than Bush? Basically Obama is the janitor! Cleaning up the last guy's crap.

  • Bush did not "steal our privacy." Name one person who was adversely affected by it.

    Obama is carrying on many of Bush's national security policies. Obama is cleaning up nothing. He's making a brand new pile of crap.

    Try listening to other sources of information besides the Obama media propaganda machine.

  • Listen to you.... media propaganda??? Do you even know what "Public Records" means? If not, you should start there before you start casting stones. Doesn't sound like your doing anything but casting blame. I haven't seen any viable solutions from your or your supporters. You can't fix anything by sitting back and doing nothing. Sitting back name calling only shows the level of your mindset and insecurities. Bush did pass a bill that repealed the Privacy Act! LOOK IT UP, ITS PUBLIC RECORD

  • How do you know when a lawyer is lying? His lips are moving!

    Grandma, grandschma. Never answered the mans questions. What a con artist!!

  • Janet Napolitano was right months ago when she identified Right Wing whack jobs, i.e. The Right Wing, as a group to be regarded as a possible threat to national security. They are stoking the flames of hate and fear. The fact that private gun shows and transactions are a dime a dozen doesn't help the situation. Let's not forget what happened in Oklahoma City; imagine how that crowd feels now that the president isn't a white guy

  • I love how Republicans are potential terrorists when they protest, but Democrats are "activists." It's a total double-standard! Talk about fear-mongering!

  • the only way to get a straight answer from obama is to ask a yes or no question and require him to use the word yes or no in his answer

  • aj19 is right. Obama did not answer the question. It was if you found out your family member might not survive but there was another option not offered in the health plan would you pursue it? He never even came close to answering the question. What does that tell us?

  • You are ignorant. Healthcare is not a right. Not mentioned at all in the constitution.

  • healthcare is a right

  • where is it in the constitution? Show it to me?

  • what does that matter

    it's a right

  • I don't see anything in the Constitution that says free healthcare for everyone.

  • mjlover23

    "So what, their are thousands of doctors waiting to take their place. "

    This is the kind of mindless, ignorant drivel that Obamunists vomit on an everyday basis.

    What contemptible stupidity!

    Keep mindlessly following Obama.

    He will lead you to Hell and leave you there.

  • funny you have a lot of commenting but no reason "why" "Obamunists" are stupid? Lot of name calling with no solutions. No clear cut plan or even a general plan on what the govt should be doing. Typical. At least have a credible idea that can be researched and rebutted. Bring info instead of name calling which does nothing to help. Ignorant to the fact no matter what party your with, if you middle class your getting crapped on like the rest of us!

  • Over on /watch?v=z-1ZfFBMf8s an Obamunist keeps covering up my post about my 29 year-old Cousin who died from CanadaCare neglect on 9July09. I think he doesnt want people to know of the Cruelty of Gov-run Health Care. Look & see how he posts & posts to cover up peoples personal stories. Hes trying to silence me & Gov will do this to you if you let them take over Health Care. Someone help me get my cousins story out, please.

  • I know what you mean. I think it is a coordinated effort to stiffle any opposition to Obama. Its like the book 1984.

  • answer the question due mass!

  • way to precisely answer the question that was asked Ohbummer

  • I have a question for the ppl that seem to know everything...Which president in the last 20 or 30 yrs has actually had "Less Govt"? All of them say they want less govt, but which ones actually had less govt? How did it work out? Are the big business policing themselves from destructive greed? What happen to Corporate "Fiscal" Responsiblity? This just like the scorpion and the frog! Just to let you know....we are the frog in this story! Look up the story. Been around for centuries.

  • The only difference between Obamacare and Hitler's Final Solution is that Hitler's senior citizens had to be forced into the gas chambers. Ours are going willingly at the urging of AARP.

    "Me first! Were's Dr. Kervorkian? Me first!"

  • Someone in this post had a good point. Insurance companies and their lawyers/lobbists are the ones that are screwing most of us. The reason why they don't want a public plan is profits! They've been living fat for decades, and everytime something challenges that (even if its in the best interest of U.S. citizens), they send out the dogs to stop it! Do you really think that doctors would quit if this passed? So what, their are thousands of doctors waiting to take their place.

  • Plenty of Catholic hospitals will close if this passes because the way it's written would compel them to perform abortions. They would rather shut down an entire hospital than be compelled to do abortions. This is no idle threat.

  • The only penalty that anyone will get when moving from a public option to private coverage (and vice versa) is that the insurance companies will either (A) drop their rates to be competitive. Which will more than likely delay non-essential surgeries or (B) lobby, lobby, and lobby some more to go back to the norm.  Either way its bad for us. Can anyone tell me why this has been discussed for 60 years, and the politicians still don't have an answer for it?

  • Such a poitical answer. I need to start answering questions the way polititcans do, maybe I will get so far in life.

  • That is such a true statement. Makes me glad that I am a regular joe. It is tough to please 300 million plus people. However, he took the job so he has to work with cards he has been dealt and the "markers" that he is asking for.

  • Who said someone had to please 300 million plus people?

  • rockbottom It's a Democracy ... Hey, great name

  • yeah, even though we are not a Democracy. We are a Constitutional Republic. There is a diffrence. I a Democracy the minority pretty much have no say in anything. The founding fathers did not like Democracy.

    Go back to school.

  • How the hell did you get anything negative out of that? It doesn't even show his complete response to the question. What a shitty clip.

  • Does this surprise anybody but the obumabots? Well they're not smart enough to understand what he just did anyway. The guy is just a lying political hack. He only got elected because he's black.  How's that hope and change working for you idiots?

  • yeah, obama is an elitist. he's been a politician most of his life plus being raised wealthy. he doesn't have a clue as to what the poor and middle class go thru. he sends his daughters to private school, and he will most certainly send his daughters to a private doctor once he socializes health care for us "commoners"

  • Typical Obama - has this man EVER answered a question posed to him?? Watch out small business owners - you are getting ready to take it big time!! We have to stop this!!!!

  • his option for health care will be the only option, and if you dare to go and get insurance on your own you will get fined or worse. I was looking for the video of him not answering the question by one person "will you and your family be covered under the public option" he never answered the question.

  • What a typical libtardic answer he gave.

  • Typical,

    What's OK for the rest of us poor slobs is NOT OK for his royal HINNY.

  • The Federal government is bankrupting itself servicing the Medicaid and Medicare systems currently under it. How can anyone believe it will manage any better a flawed non universal healthcare plan now being proposed. Fix what should be fixed without sacrifing the good and keep the Feds out our lives. Don't reduce everyone to the lowest common denominator of care. Is this what you Obamaites voted for? False equality reduces us all to systemic slavery. FREEDOM is key. Speak out. Sign the petition.

  • That wasn't actually an answer. Is there more to this video? Did I miss something?

  • no, you didn't miss anything. That was just another pathetic response from Barack Hussein Obama after he was asked a simple question. When he is asked a question that he knows he doesn't want to answer, he goes off on a completely random topic that does not pertain to the question he was asked.

  • oh my you just realised he didn't answer the question?? have you followed this man. he never answers questions. and then the answsers he finally gives are a nightmare. like spread the wealth answer and i would have liked a gradual increase in gas prices.  this man is out of his mind. prepare people for his stupid ideas and then the reality.

  • if congress/government had to live under obamacare, it would not even be discussed. they don't care about ordinary people like us.

  • Everyday, the signs of this bufoon being just another third world dictator becomes clearer.

    We shouldnt have our AC on 72, but he can keep his office at freezing.

    We should drive postage stamp cars, he can drive a tank and fly to New York for a date ($25,000 - our money)

    Michelle tells grads not go after the money - after slipping off $550 tennis shoes.

    We should save save save, while he eats 1$00 beef and flies people 1001 miles to bake his pizza.

    And now medical care.

  • Does this response surprise anyone?

    It's disgusting,elitist,paethetic and two-faced.

    He is destroying this country in record speed!

    Somethings got to give!

  • It's ok for all America, but if HIS family needs more, then HE will make sure THEY have access to BETTER health care. What a two-faced hypocrite. The people who voted for this idiot are so stupid. This video is just one of hundreds that prove the point. And to repeat from an earlier post: How's that "hope and change" working out for us America? How's that new era of transparency and accountability? How's that stimulus working out? Don't know what to tell you idiots who voted for him.

  • How's that "hope and change" working out for us America?

    How's that new era of transparency and accountability?

    How's that stimulus working out?

    How's that bail-out working out Chrysler and GM?

    Where are those thousands "shovel-ready/green jobs"?

    Where are those nations that hated us during Bush and that now love us like, North Korea & Iran?

    Obama now says he will "allow" us to keep our doctors.

    Who is this tin-horn dictator to "allow" us anything!

    He works for us, not the other way around!

  • You are upset that staunch conservative didn't win. Actually during Obama's presidency I have made more money and have gotten bills paid off. I want you to keep defending the next conservative president we have when times are bad. Now, don't get upset when people degrade your conservative president, calling him a failure, racist, un-American. Don't you get upset. The shoe will someday be on the other foot.

  • He spins a story but doesn't answer the question. Well, in a fashion I guess he did right there at the end, wanting them to get the very best care.

    So, what's good for us isn't good enough for him & his family?

  • typical liberal doesnt answer the question but tries to get sympathy for his grandma. No national healthcare please founding fathers would have a fit!

  • Who could possibly expect the messiah to live like us unwashed folks? I am surprised the state run media allowed that Doctor to speak.

    Comrade Obama should get the best care, after all, he is saving the world. It is not easy making the world love you.

    Funny thing is, if the media was doing it's job then comments like that one would be more exposed, and common place. Obama is a charlaton. A Marxist, racist, with a God complex.

  • Healthcare problem=lawyers-lawyers lawyers-problem in washington=lawyers lawyers lawyers-the only place to get news sadly is the internet-DON'T bail out the supposed news joke in the USA.

  • Um so wait....he's asked if he would violate his own policies when it came to his family....he spends a full minute giving tedious details about his grandmother's hip replacement (off topic much?) and then quickly glosses over the fact that he has no intention of limiting his own family.

    The best for me, scraps for thee.

  • Why cant more people see the truth??

  • Because our GOVERNMEDIA have dumbed-down our citizenry!

    DIVERSITY has become our goal!

    We must bring American whites down to the IQ levels of blacks and our mixed-race INVADERS from Mexico!

    Only then, will we see our Post Racial Society!

  • 1-Because some people are completely blind. 2-Because Obama's goon squad is doing all they can to squash all dissent in the electronic and print media. Scary times for this country.

  • it wasn't scary for the last 8 years? Funny thing is, we could have experimented with Health Care reform back in 93' (when we had a surplus)! If it didn't work, we could of voted Clinton out and replaced him with someone else. The politicians most of you voted for elected to block Hillary's efforts, and pay her off to shut her up. We could have already found out if it would work or not by now. Where is the anger at the Insurane comps??? They are the ones screwing everybody.... for years!

  • No. Universal Health Care is a disaster not only because of the continuous triage it creates, but also because it's nearly impossible to get rid of once you have it. No matter how much we hated it, we'd probably be stuck with it.

  • Speaking of blindly following a message. Universal Health Care is not what this is. I've lived in Canada for almost 4 years now, and this system is not what the U.S. is set to have! Canadians have one plan that everybody can get on. If they want a better one, they can pay the diff for it. At least with the proposed U.S. system, if you like your plan you can keep it! What ppl believe from the Repubs is typical fear mongering like they always do.

  • Supporters of Universal Health Care are on the record endorsing this as a backdoor method to a single-payer system. Sure, in the beginning you'll be able to keep your current policy, but when the government competes with the private sector, the government never plays fair. Asymmetric subsidies and regulation will drive private insurers out of business.

  • Typical government answer: My government polcies are best when practiced upon my neighbor.

    This guy is a tyrant, a punk tyrant.

  • Everyone should be outraged by this. They are not reforming anything, they will make costs skyrocket and quality non-existent.

  • With those in the government, it's always one rule for you, another for me. Obamacare is a disaster waiting to happen. And we (and generations to come) will be paying and paying and paying. . .

  • What... Good coverage would not be covered????

    I am shocked that a politician has been shown to be a hypocrite.

  • THIS politician was supposed to be different, remember? that was the ONLY thing that he ran on

  • Government is not the solution, government is the problem. The House just passed cap and trade which is the biggest tax increase in history. Get ready for $10 gallon gas, with every thing else to cost more. Worst government EVER!

  • If you get sick and need insurance- you lose it. you lose everything

  • Then reform insurance, tort reform, don't drag the gov't into our lives.

  • How? I believe there was a proposal in the past to reform insurance...But it was recommended by the insurance companies (of course) that they didn't need the government to help with reform- mthey would "so it themselves"-  never happened though.

  • Hope n' Change Baby!!

    I'm not sure if Diane was more annoyed during the question, or finding out the network received dismal ratings during her infomercial.

  • It blows my mind how this administration is getting away with all this. It scares me to think that administration would be this irresponsible, and even more scary that the people of this country are lettign it happen! We are in for some bad times folks. I hope we make it through. I am so sorry my kids will have to live through this tragedy.

  • It was plain to see who Obama is before he was elected. Obama and the Elitist have a much grander plan in mind than what you're seeing in the news and it doesn't include the happiness us Americans. You're just seeing them muck the plan all up. They thought we were all idiots because a lot of lazy idiots, thought they were going to get something (the bait) for free when they voted for him. I think the Dems are going to have another head rolling come November 2010.

  • Fuck you, Obama. You fucking hypocritical little cunt. Fucking socialist DORK. You nicotine addicted fool.

    I hope Obama gets lung cancer soon.

  • All animals are equal. Some animals are more equal than others.

  • someone should tell this idiot Obama that we are broke and cannot afford right now to spend 2 trillion on this stupid ass plan

    Funny Obama would go outside this socialist plan to get care for his family but fuck the rest of us..i don't want to wait 6 or more months for surgery like they all do in other countries that have so called "free health care"

    Typical liberal

  • Obama would not sign up his family for this government run health care?

    Obama's plan will make those that already have health care pay more to insure others. This isn't about cost reduction; it's a cost INCREASE on those with insurance to pay for those without. There is no way anyone can claim this isn't blatant socialism while holding a straight face.

  • "

    TAKE TWO ASPIRIN AND CALL ME WHEN YOUR CANCER IS STAGE 4

    All the problems with the American health care system come from government intervention, so naturally the Democrats' idea for fixing it is more government intervention. ...

    Now the Democrats want to force us all into one gigantic national health insurance plan that will cover every real and mythical ailment that has a powerful lobby.

    Even two decades after the collapse of liberals' beloved Soviet Union, they can't grasp...
