[jerseyjoe99982002]

fixing Medicare will now be impossible, after passage of this bill. But of couse, its only 68 trillion

[sharinganclan213]

you cn fool some of the people some of the time, but not all the peopel all the time.

barack obama, if you really care about americans, you would work to promote capitalism and lower our deficit and remove all troops from foreign countries.

[lenny380]

you are full of it good Sir and you know it. You can fool a lot of people but not the ones who know better and can do something about it.

[PussyMaster2000]

Good Ole' Flip Flop Barack

[piper77]

the flopbama presidency can't end too soon for me.

[MediaJunkie92]

He looks so angry, just give up already, nobody wants this bill.

[JOS3EMMANUEL]

i got medicaid is that healthcare?..

[BeantownJim]

Where's your long form birth certificate Barry Soetoro?

[BeantownJim]

Impeach Obama!

[selmamyspace]

all republicans want to do is block obama they dont care about this bill.they want him to fail so they can win in 2012.

[wideawake123]

@selmamyspace Noone wanted Obama to fail, the man tanked on his own. His Policies failed and his failures are Our demise, understand? At a time when America needed a steady hand and an experienced administrator, we elected a "community organizer" from Chicago. He tanked it. Now the idea is to minimize the damage He, Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi do and hope the Economy repairs itself, because their policy is destroying it. Hope and Change were slogans. Slogans didnt work.

[PERIZ99]

Finally...A US president with some real schooling; Not like bush's, which was bought and paid for by his daddy.

[wideawake123]

@PERIZ99 By that you mean a man we know virtually nothing about him, right? The only evidence we have that he went to Harvard is He and a few witnesses said so, right? He "was editor of the Law Review"...ever see one of his articles? How about a transcript from Columbia? Grades from Harvard? Highschool Transcript? Anything at all? Every other candidate or POTUS in the history of our great nation has produced these things...Obama the Brilliant has Not. That's what you meant, right?

[PERIZ99]

Wide: What I meant is that you republicans are such a desperate, sorry bunch of hypocrites, you can't see any further than the end of your nose. You LOST the election; Obama is YOUR president, and he will be for the next 7 years..!!! : D

[wideawake123]

@PERIZ99 I seem to remember Liberal screeds at George Bush and his "crime family", but now that the shoe the other foot, you want Republicans and Conservatives to just fall in line while this Imposter destroys the country piecemiel? Fuck No! I wont go quietly into that goodnight. How dare you trust this bastard after he blew $1 TRILLION in 2 months! How dare you be so ignorant of his distain for America? How dare you vote for a TELEPROMPTER?!

[treid100182]

PUBLIC OPTION?

[pubtor]

...

[EccePropheta]

"We are 24 hours away" mostly because we are pushing through without consent.

[MClown69]

Thanks for sticking up for the American people President Obama! Thanks for finally helping the middle class and poor out instead of the greedy rich bastards like Bush did!!!

[wideawake123]

@MClown69 Clown works for you. You know a friend of mine who "knows" told me that Obama and Pelosi really really care about You in particular...She told me....they talk about You all the time. Tell me Einstein, how does 10 years of taxing the middle class, and cutting healthcare benefit to our grandparents and parents to pay for 6 years of entitlements paid Directly to Insurance Companies "help the middle class"? Tell me: Who is the largest DENIER of healthcare Benefits in America?

[telepylus111]

yay!!!

i care about health.

[midevalcheese]

If you care about health and you support this bill, then you don't know anything about the bill.

[treid100182]

PUBLIC OPTION?

[FranG1214]

Yet even more demagoguery and emotional appeals from Mr. Obama. Doing something about "it" could actually mean making "it" worse. Practical arguments for this bill are non-existent and the morality card is all that's available for play.

[kingx989]

There are student loan regulations in the "Healthcare" bill! So basicly, they can put anything they want in a bill and call it "Healthcare" this should scare the hell out of everybody! It's obvious that their willingness to disregard the publics opinion is an insight on how they view the public, just a bunch of people that need to be controlled. That goes for the public that is for the bill too... they will also be controlled and subject to the death panels that the bill will produce.

[FrsBigeasy]

If the Bill was Popular but you Disagreed with would you think it should be Passed?

[kingx989]

@FrsBigeasy Sure, but it looks desperate and arrogant to try to pass bills with no votes.

[PERIZ99]

King: Sometimes you have to fight fire with fire.

[FrsBigeasy]

@kingx989 The Speaker doesn't call for Votes on things that she doesn't have the Votes for. Dropping the Deeming Measure is an Indication that she has the Votes & now every Representative will be on the Record Up or Down.

[kingx989]

@FrsBigeasy I understand that you think that just because the health care bill says "health care", that you will get better health care. Unfortunately, jst because you are for the reform, doesnt mean you will be excluded from the upcoming death panels. Dont be willing to give up your rights when you dont know what you're giving them up for.... thats all I'm saying.

[FrsBigeasy]

@kingx989 Yeah I'm actually dumb enough to believe that just because a Health Care Reform Bill says Health Care Reform that it Automatically means Health Care Reform & if your dumb enough to believe that then I have a Beach House in Wyoming I would like to sell where there other people who believe in "Death Panels" like your self.

[cazyblood3]

ok crooks

[sirhalo2]

@wideawake123 Deceit does not have a p in it asshole.

[highbury10]

You are a bastard! Your father is a bastard! Your mother is a bastard! You LIE!

[PERIZ99]

High: You're foaming at the mouth...It's hilarious...!!!

Eat your heart out..!!!!!!!!!!

[TheImpeacher]

As soon as you out of office idiot, we will start undoing this communist black bill. You be GONE........

[BeantownJim]

i agree

[FrsBigeasy]

Democratic Members tomorrow should ask them self a question. Did you Run for the House to be Popular & get Reelected or to do Great Things & Represent your Constituents in their best Interest? Its clear this Bill isn't Popular right now the last poll I saw had it at 38-48 & Minority Leader John Boehner has made it clear that there won't be any Republican Votes for it so its up to the 257 Democrats whether the Bill Passes or not.

[wideawake123]

This isnt it Rick, it just isnt. Nor is it a "final push". This harangue will continue as long as it takes to secure the takeover. They robbed the SS Trust Fund, they robbed Medicare. They robbed the Highway Trustfund and now they want us to trust them with the largest entitlement in Hx?! Does the "Affordable Healthcare Act" reduce ANYONE's healthcare cost? No. It does however GAURATEE the Ins. Cos. at least 30 million new customers. 60 years of Taxes for 36 years of Healthcare! Who pays?

[FrsBigeasy]

@wideawake123 "What we have here is a Failure to Communicate". I respect you Wide Awake but I Disagree with you on everything here & will hold you to your Predictions.

[wideawake123]

@FrsBigeasy Why didnt the Bill qualify with the CBO for "Reconcilliation Rick? If it's so "critical", why doesnt the plan go into effect for 4 years, but the taxes start now? Who's healthcare costs will be reduced by the "Affordable Healthcare Bill"? Whose Rick? Nobody Rick...It raises individual costs and Mandates 30 million new customers for the Ins. Cos. I'm not wrong here, that what this Bill does. You're a Blue-Dog, Think like one.

[FrsBigeasy]

@wideawake123 Its up to the Senate Parliamentarian to decide if the Bill can be brought up under Reconciliation not the CBO. The CBO says the Bill will Reduce Budget Deficit by 138B$ over 10 years, what do you think of the CBO now? The Tax Credits will make it easier for people to purchase Health Insurance as well as Small Business's to Purchase Health Insurance for their Employees. The National Insurance Exchange will make it easier for people to find the best & most Affordable Insurance.

[wideawake123]

It doesnt qualify Rick, not for Reconciliation.They had to come up with $1 billion to squeeze out of a $1 TRILLION Bill over 10 years to qualify it for reconciliation and they couldnt. 1/1000th of the Bill over 10 years! Those "Tax Credits"...Who gets them? The Insurance Companies get them. We never see a dime of it. That same gigantic ball of crap we were debating last year has now grown by 700 pages. That's all earmarks Rick.

[FrsBigeasy]

@wideawake123 Apparently this is a popular video, I've been hearing from people about it since 3PM.

Apparently your the Senate Parliamentarian & know all of this. Really its up to him whether this Bill can come up under Reconciliation or not, no one else.

[MClown69]

why doesnt the plan go into effect for 4 years? Some stuff does go in effect immediatly like the pre existing conditions and that you can't be dropped from insurance or they can't stop paying once you get a illness and a couple other things too. Watch other stations other than FOX! its good and the republcians are a bunch of no good liars! they don't want this to pass cause they know its a good plan and they would never get their asses voted for again if this passes and the people like it.

[FrsBigeasy]

@MClown69 They'll be able to say they Voted for the National Insurance Exchange so they can find the Health Insurance Policy thats best for them & their Family instead of their Employer or Government telling them what Insurance Plan to buy. They'll be able to tell their Constituents that their Opponent would of Voted against these things. I Voted your for your best Interest, my Opponent would of Voted to Protect Insurance Company's, who's side are you on.

[FrsBigeasy]

@MClown69 If Democrats play this right it could turn out to a Great Decision for them both on Policy but Politically as well & they could put Republicans of the Defensive as in the Pocket for the Health Insurance Industry.

[MClown69]

Fox News has spread so many lies and scare tactics about this bill the american people don't even know whats good for them anymore. this will be good for all of us once it is fixed up. Wait and see and then when republicans are proved wrong once again they will just pretend it never happened. just like they pretended Bush didn't ruin America and now try to say its all Obama's fault. They will even prolly try to take credit for it even tho they voted against it. Republicans are losers.

[FrsBigeasy]

@MClown69 Democrats who Vote for the Bill Tomorrow will be able to say they Voted to Deny Health Insurance Company's from Dropping people who have pre Existing Conditions, to Deny Health Insurance Company's from Dropping people once they get sick, to Deny Health Insurance Company's from putting Lifetime Caps on people's Health Insurance. They'll be able to say they Voted for Tax Credits to people to pay for Health Insurance as well as Tax Credits to Small Business's to buy Health Insurance.

[wideawake123]

@MClown69 Good thing Barrack Obama and Nancy Pelosi knows what good for us huh? They really really care about you. "Clown" is a good fit for you. Republicans are the ones talking sense. We cant afford this. Obama himself 10 months ago said "We're Broke". Since he said that, 7 Million Jobs were Lost. That's Tax revenue that the Fed is no longer collecting. So unless Obama's rich Uncle died and left him a few TRILLION DOLLARS, we're Broker than we were when he said "We're Broke".

[Mrcharliebobo]

The American people are going to pull all there cards come November!!!

[sultar881]

i never understood why one man had to stand up here and talk about storys that the whole country listen to and belive wow.. what a jokes country!!

[classc63]

[MClown69]
