@megaeLECTRICEYE, 1> clinton did not ruin the economy, he had the budget balanced and we would have actually been out of debt in 2012 if we would have followed his budget.. Bush ruined all that!!! HOw is a nuclear war going to free us from anything and we don't need to be free from gays we need to except them for who they are get your facts straight and open your mind
2012 Obama will be NoObama he and the rest of socialist communist anti-american Democraps will be gone. And at last we will have our freedoms back, then we can turn this country back to family moral values. Also fix the economy that Obama and Bill Clinton destroyed. And one way in doing that is if we attack Iran or NUKE china and Russia. Also a nuclear war will free us from gays and bring back Jesus Christ.
@MegaELECTRICEYE yeah because a nuclear war is going to fix everything. dumbass. war is not the answer. its a waste of money. clinton fixed the budget then bush came into offfice then what happened? oh yeah the biggest stock market crash in how many years? oh yeah thats right. how many jobs were lost? oh yeah thats right. open your mind to more ideas then glen beck.
@MegaELECTRICEYE It's people like you who are ruining this country. Inbred rednecks with single digit IQs who roll over and let the right wing's propaganda come up and fuck you in the ass. How can you say you're against gays while you let big business sodomize you on a daily basis? I hope you do go to heaven so that Jesus can bitch slap some intelligence into you before turning you over to all of the gays in heaven for a big gay group hug.
@Theroha In case you have not notice Obama is crushing the economy. Where are the JOBS?? yeah right Obama Jobless recovery. The GOP is doing all it can to cut spending and Creat Jobs Obama keeps getting in the way. The GOP was right about Obama that he will destroy this country. Time for Real Leadership in 2012. Newt & Palin Leadership God and American can count on. Plus real Americans Unlike our Kenyan born Muslim Communist socialist Islamic Nazi President.
@MegaELECTRICEYE Try listening to someone other than Glenn Beck before you attempt to debate someone with more than a GED. Obama was born in Hawaii; they have produced his birth certificate. The economy under Clinton showed a surplus; it tanked under Bush. America is a secular nation banned by the constitution from establishing any form of state religion so God has nothing to do with American politics. Communism, socialism, and fascism (Nazis) are completely different ideologies.
FOXNEWS WATCHERS ARE SUPPORTING THE GROUND ZERO MOSQUE, The second LARGEST foxnews shareholder is also financing the mosque, look it up! IF YOU WATCH FOXNEWS YOU ARE HELPING SUPPORT THE MOSQUE.. they are a wolf in sheeps clothing, if more people watch foxnews than any other channel then realize FOXNEWS IS MAIN STREAM MEDIA. AMERICA YOU HAVE BEEN CONNED
@greenthumbguy1 you can see your economic theory in action in many 3rd world countries. If trickle down economics worked then the 3rd world would be rolling in prosperity. You conservatives need to open your eyes. Capitalism is not a force for good ... its just a force ... people supply the good. The GOP doesn't represent America they represent the affluent. Name 1 thing the GOP has done since O took office that hasn't been directly for corporate interest ... just 1 thing ... anyone?
@TheJulsMan My economic theory? I'm fiscally conservative to the extent that I don't believe in wasting money on wars, corporate welfare, foreign aid, and the stock market. While the repubs and teabags are crying "the commie socialists are coming!", the big corporations are conquering the world.
@greenthumbguy1 guess I mis-understood you. I think that both philosophies have some good points. I just hear this shit that comes out of the GOP and I'm floored by the stupidity. Like just today, dude goes off on how his utility bills are going up and up and how much he pays for water and sewer. The reason in his mind ... its because 'regulation'! What?!? Please go watch the story about Enron ... once deregulated power in California was sky rocketing in cost.
@TheJulsMan I'm with you. The LAST thing we need is LESS regulation. People who whine about too much regulation have never been to a country where there is literally shit in the rivers and air that burns your throat, countries that US corporations love to ship our jobs to.
Praise the Lord For John Boehner, he is a real christian man who speaks to god. I'm just thinkfull the GOP is in control again. WE are going to take our country back. To the days of Christian family moral values. Gays, and Liberals are what is wrong with MY country. God has punished us because of the Liberals and Obama. Plus OBAMA is a Muslim and was born in Kenya.
@MegaELECTRICEYE HAHA YOU are whats wrong with OUR country.. you ppl who think that this country is yours that you stole from native americans and mexicans.. it would make sense if that was there slogan but it isnt.. with out liberals we would still be in slavery with out liberals and progressive.. we would still be in segregation.. the root word of progressive is ... PROGRESS get out of your hole.. WHO cares if the president is a muslim? this nation was not built on christian fundementals.
Republicans will win it all in November. And they will focus on real issues such as bringing Obama down or impeach him. Because he is a muslin and is from Kenya. Plus its a know fact Tax cuts for the rich creates jobs. And trickle down economic works. Also we need to focus on a war with IRAN, RUSSIA, CHINA. And also we need christian conservative moral values. SAY NO to drugs, Gays, Teen Sex.
@MegaELECTRICEYE Please, do the world a favour and take your backwards, dated views and leave the world to productive people who are trying to avoid war, trying to improve society's welfare, and avoiding all the fanciful 'ideas' associated with religion and prejudice.
@MegaELECTRICEYE They didnt win it all. Drugs, gays and teen sex have always and will always exist. You're a turdbucket for thinking you could stop human nature. The taxes for the rich have been in effect alllllllll this time, and yet theres no jobs. Christian moral values do not exist. You are fucking deluded! And a hyperexaggerative eccentric creatard which bases all your opinions on sychophants who are conning you out of you ss and medicare. Thats okay, the republicans want you to die quickly
@juseph29 Tooootally... The always droopy eyes, the mumble grumble speech pattern. The entire GOP is joke. Their leaders are this dude, Palin and Michael Steele. Yet still, they are kicking our asses.
I can tell it is late in the evening...why else would I be watching this moronic display of mindless dribble. TYT are nothing but a bunch of idiots that have their heads squarely where the sun doesn't shine.
What Republicans want to hear is that Obama has come to his senses and everyone with the exception of jews, blacks, gays, hispanics and asian people will be permitted to use the front door of the White House.
You guys are SOOOO STUPID for blaming obama's health care plan. Doesn't the government own the military? SO doesn't that mean we have a SOCIALIST MILITARY? Why aren't you complaining against that...did the gov't turn the military on ordinary citizens? AMerica...home of the brave, home of the free, home of the highly ignorant, uninformed, redneck, self-interest hating middle class fuck heads....
the "socialized medicine" argument is DEAD. it's still a purely profit based system that's good for big business & bad for the little guy. socializing healthcare would have meant ELIMINATING all the greedy middle men when in fact the "reform" benefits them! now if you don't pay greedy insurance companies, you'll get FINED.
if healthcare were truly socialized like IT SHOULD BE, insurance companies would get sent packing & obama wouldn't have made back room deals with pharmaceutical companies
@djgambitron i agree, this is why Obama's health care reform ain't really the best way to go...it places a few bites into the insurance company, but also hands them millions of new customers... we need to get rid of insurance companies, period, and replace it with a system that is non-profit...doctors can still make good money, nurses can still make good money, everyone who actually does work can make good money, but not those who sell insurance, because they don't do SHIT
it will NEVER happen. big business & their lobbyists OWN america. real socialized medicine would destroy the insurance companies', pharmaceutical industry's cash cow. ANY progress on ANY issue of importance for citizens or the planet they live on will be fought tooth and nail by big business.
democrats are NEARLY as beholden to BB as republicans and are political whores too.
NOTHING can change until lobbying is outlawed and the ENTIRE political house is cleaned of corruption.
@djgambitron i agree, almost. There are some true liberals not beholden (at least none that I know of) like Bernie Sanders from Vermont, who is a US Senator who openly states that he is a socialist. Hahaha. But yeah, if the GOP is 100% corrupt, DEMs are like 70%, IMHO. But I think people need to know that they are being fucked in the ass and it can begin with education. You and I are examples of this...maybe there is hope out there in the future.
i don't think so. many people are too lazy or indifferent. many are totally brainwashed. you just can't gain ground with someone who thinks lobbying is actually DEMOCRATIC, and you SURE can't argue with brainwashed dittoheads like my neighbor who says "republicans don't lie, they just stretch the truth" any time you point out how misinformed he is.
you can show people "the big picture" but in the end, they'll only hear what they want to like "tax cuts" even though the cuts aren't for them
@djgambitron Ok, this comment may be true for you, but most Liberals won't admit that sort of stuff. We aren't "b###ing" about anything. We aren't mindless sheep either. Listen, this comment goes with both sides. Both sides have the mindless, brainwashed sheep that you mention and both of them have those who can admit things that are stupid that our sides believe in.
apparently you've missed how the liberal wing of the democratic party is angry with obama for selling out then.
i'm honestly starting to think his entire purpose was to discredit the democratic party & increase the right wing's power. he's REALLY screwed the public up with his "alleged" healthcare reform which kisses big business butt WORSE than before
the thing about dittoheads though is that they deny even FACTS like GLOBAL WARMING & take PRIDE in parroting whatever rush says
@djgambitron You seem to be a reasonable Liberal, and I throughly respect that. I didn't mean anything harsh, I just meant to point out that both sides have flaws. In fact, in general I hate politics, because all it does is seperate people even more and cause more hatred. But sadly, it's a nessicary evil.
both sides are FLAWED! it's not a democracy. it's a selling out to the highest bidder POSING as democracy. as evil as i always say republicans are for hate mongering & greed, democrats play the same game on the DL.
the problem is citizens either can't see that the ENTIRE 2 party system works against them, or are too scared & lazy to organize & take the US back.
we need an INDEPENDENT party committed to ENDING lobbying ("legalized bribery") forever. big business needs a new french revolution
What is it about these buttoned-up-tight Republicans that make them appear like they're about 2 coats of varnish shy of looking like ventriloquists' dummies?
The stimulus has created 2 million jobs in its first year, according to the bipartisan Congressional Budget Office, and the Democratic health care plan will save taxpayers $104 billion over 10 years.
@talllikelurchis I didnt say its okay elsewhere..i said there is a federal ban. NOble probably already knew where the reserves were..oil companies were doing plenty of studies during the the pre war years.
We would need it in years...but if we bag trying to find alternatives...we'll be in the same boat we've always been in...relying on OPEC. Of course they should make money...trust me they make plenty now. 3.35 a gallon at the pump! Drilling offshore wont solve our problems....
@penfifteen6 We would not have to rely on opec if we did our own offshore drilling...Do you realize that Russia is making deals with Cuba to drill for oil about 90 miles away from East coast from Florida?
Oil that environmentalist groups have blocked us from doing so....
Now' wouldn't you think if any oil being drilled would be better done by US rather than it benefit another country if it is going to be done regardless
be done by us? We at least could control it's regulation...
@talllikelurchis 60% of our oil consumption is from foreign sources...Do you think we could make that up quickly? And how many offshore platforms would we need?
"The economy is worse for having done the stimulus," says Norquist. "It's not that it helped a little bit. It didn't help at all!" The GOP, he insists, can make the same argument on health care: "There's nothing in the health care bill that's any good at all. It's all taxes and transfers of income. There's nothing in there that reduces the costs of health care for anybody."
In reality, both assertions are demonstrably wrong.
The middle class of this nation are done watching the wealthy get all the opportunities and the opportunist exploiting everyone in the nation.
While wealthy corporations make the next move to exploit the poor of other nations by outsourcing jobs, the middle class gets tossed into the fucking street, and under the bus, with maybe a weeks severance pay after giving corporate America years of service.
Fuck the American dream, fuck the lies, and fuck the Republican propoganda.
I thought I was on my own for awhile. But it appears that there really are millions of people out there believe in that "All men are created" equal quote.
It is refreshing know that possibly our fellow man will rise to the occasion and make the Republicans aware of the fact the Karl Rove's, the Dick Cheney's, the Bush's, the Rice's and the rest of them are done destroying this country.
It is about time that the people take back this nation.
Boomer: All Men..and Women ARE created equal...then it's up them them to take it from there. You can't judge a guy who busts his butt 7 days a week to keep his family fed, and all their needs met and give them some of the good things in life...with someone who sits on his butt and waits for the government or someone else to take care of him and his, and then cry because they are nolonger equal.
Well we have been living in a country that corporations have controlled our government since Reagan got seated. Through Clinton and we all know W. got his chance at rewriting law for the giant corporations as well as unprecedented tax breaks for the wealthy. So how is that working for everybody?
It's pretty sad...Peope don't seem to mind getting reamed by big business, and when you suggest the gov't step up and reign them in a little you get called a socialist...
why can't people see that keeping the corporations in power & rolling back regulations etc. is ALWAYS in their WORST interest?!!!
corporations are out to screw you over EVERY WAY THEY CAN!
we could have had 100% clean hydrogen power a DECADE AGO! just put a windmill or solar cells on every "gas station" and you can turn water into hydrogen, but NOOOOOOOO we have the worst oil spill EVER instead because of GREED!
try watching "who killed the electric car" some time.
the whole "we don't have the technology" mantra is a total crock of crap! ANY car on the road RIGHT NOW could be converted to burning hydrogen with just a few changes in plumbing & could have been at least 10 years ago.
imagine all the jobs & R&D & construction that could be created if the US committed to clean energy! the only reason we haven't because it's a threat to evil oil company & their scum sucking investors bottom lines
@djgambitron because Americans are uneducated morons and the rich have this huge propaganda machine that keeps mixing the issue of regulation with socliams and nazism...anytime liberals say we need more regualtion, the GOP misstates and says we want more government, more communism...and somehow people buy into it...it really shocks me how many americans hate their own government, but love corporations that pay NOTHING in taxes, and these haters are middle class americans!!! beats me
@booley I don't want the gov't to OWN the corporations, I want it to protect its citizens from them. Corporations have no allegience to this nation, they exist for profit only. They don't care if you live or die, as long as they make money in the process.
@greenthumbguy1 Read Machiavelli, he said that democracy turns always into an oligarcghy. Once population is too big that is what it becomes and that is what we have. Huge corporations control most things and we as civilians we think our vote counts but does it really? Do presidents serve the people or they just mediate between the ones who own it all and the masses?
@Jeremydavid83 Two good questions. I think our we spend our money counts as much as our votes do. I don't like Walmarts business practices, so I don't go there no matter how low thier prices. I don't like plastic bottles in the landfills, so I don't use them. Most people don't want to be bothered with things. We haven't had a true constitutional republic/democracy for a long long time. It's obviously a corporate oligarchy, but they call you a commie if you complain about it.
@greenthumbguy1 The corporations control the goverment. The Liberal constitution is wrong. WE the Corporations not we the people. This was the purpose of the war in Iraq. It was to help our corporations while at the same time giving Iraq democracy and freedoms.
@greenthumbguy1 We should have neither, if the government was actually small in size, the government would not control the corporations, and corporations would not lobby a government if it was small in scope with little federal funds to waste in the first place
@szelle63 I guess I shouldn't have used the word "control", but the corporations definitely to be closely regulated. Otherwise we'd have 12 yr olds working in coal mines and we wouldn't have any trees, clean water, or mountains. Government IS to big, but what would you give up? The FDA, the CDC, USDA? Rapant greed leaves a lot of victims in its wake.
@greenthumbguy1 Our regulatory agencies arnt what needs cut (steam lined definitely), our expenses need to be cut in corporate subsidies, defense spending, edu dept(give it back to the states), most of these federal social programs we promise but cant afford, end the wars and take an isolationist position. Im a classic conservative (not this neo con bs), and I want to end these federal programs, give the power back to the states and local govt, and end all wars.Both parties suck, Ron paul wins
@szelle63 I'm a social liberal and fiscal conservative and pretty much agree with everything in your comment. Whatever happened to Conservatives like William F. Buckley? The neo-cons could learn a lot from his writings.
@greenthumbguy1... of course, we have to have government control over corporations, otherwise, we'll have another Great Depression just like republicans brought us in 1929 ... as a result of no banking regulations..
The Great Depression was all about lack of government control over banking industry ... once FDR put those regulations into place, the U.S. had years of prosperity ... until the republicans got back into the political picutre & began deregulation all over again.
I could see George Carlin right now at a Summit Conference talking to the leaders of various countries.
"Now look you fuck'n eggheads, here is what is going to go down, the next guy that gives us any shit is going to be wearing an ICBM for a fucking suppository."
"And as for you China, you little Commie Pricks, you are going to live to regret the fuck'n day ya tried dump'n those Dell computers on the American people. And don't give us that bullshit that ya don't understand fuck'n english
The only two guys whoever made any sense out of this bullshit is Louis Black and George Carlin.
Now there are two guys who would have made a great President and Vice President.
I mean, think about it; George Carlin getting ready to address the nation and just starting out with; "Guess what assholes, you fucking people are going to live to regret the day you voted me into office." and then Louis Black pops up and says: "Ya see, ya see, you fucker's still don't get it do ya?"
Get used to it boys. No matter who is in power the Republicans did so much damage during their Reign of Terror that this country is not going to make it anyway.
They have corrupted everything they have touched. Just look at the destruction caused by one Senator Jim Bunning. Kentucky has the worst school system and the poorest people in the nation.
Don't you wish guys like Jim Bunning would have used as much effort to stop the spending the Republicans were doing when they were in power?
You fail to realize that you are just playing their game now. Dems and Repubs are both guilty of the exact same atrocities, and they are playing the american people against one another based on their political prejudices. Dems want you to hate repubs, and repubs what you to hate dems. Thats the game. Really, they both are doing the same crap. I want a politician who is going to get rid of income tax and is going to pull all the troops home, and abolish the federal reserve. I cant find one of em.
Detroit has a giant insurance cock poking him in the ass. Little insurance gurus like you will have to get out of those tittie bars and go to work for a living. One year in, market share will have to be duplicated. You need young healthy adults to pad your bottom line. If you don't really work at doing your job you will lose business to smaller more streamlined insurance companies. Don't you just love competition Detroit GOP?
@DetroitGOP And you jerks get mad when people call you racists. Not only that, you whine and cry when the government returns taxpayer money to the people through social programs, but think nothing of handing it over to huge corporations who don't give a damn about you, only your money. The real problem is, you and your GOP aren't even the real villians. You're only tools.
Obama and the Liberals brought credit card reform to the American people the Republicans hated it. Now Obama wants to do the same thing with the Insurance Companies and the Republicans hate him for it.
They are being outed for exactly what they are; useless, uninterested and self serving.
If there is not money to go around for the Republicans they are never interested in anything.
They are going to have healthcare reform shoved up their collective asses.
and the majority of the American people who are against Obama's reform need to get with the program. Who cares if you don't know everything thats in the bill. If Obama says its all good, then its all good! Who cares if this reform is modled after the epic failing modles in canada and france, WE can make it work with hope and change.
that republicans are greedy and selfish isn't news to anyone who refuses to drink GOPAC kool aid
even before elected and stole the budget surplus, bush said he was going to give tax cuts to the 2% richest americans who DON'T NEED IT
after the "MINOR" controversy over vote tampering in florida people were STILL more upset that clinton got a hum job than the ILLEGAL evidence that brought it to light
even when caught red handed, republicans are quickly forgiven by short attention spanners
you are so on point, just look at the polls in 2010 November, "BAD NEWS FOR DEMS" seems to be the only news in that arena. They gave OBAMA 2 years to fix things and now they want to revert back to the party that gave us the mess in the first place. I hope these GOP just run this country into the ground, then maybe we'll wake up finally and revolt against the GOP/Corporatists who truly run this country...did you hear what Rush said about hte oil spill? "The Ocean will Take Care of it" LOL
THAT comment will go over well with new orleans residents who rely on the coast & wetlands to make their living when they're still steaming over barbara bush's "let them eat cake" speech after katrina.
what's sad about your comment about those who would be most eager to overthrow the system are totally in it for the wrong reasons and bleeding heart liberals are too wishy washy to ever say "F### YOU!" to anyone.
it's not the GOVERNMENT that's the real problem, it's big biz pulling the strings
@djgambitron yes! liberals are too wishy washy because we think about htings and analyze and people are different...for some reason the GOP are super united, I dunno, they really do all drink from the same trough...Obama needs to constantly remind people the GOP + Bush caused this mess and it's NOT FREE to fix this shit...it's free to get this country into the mess but it ain't free to FIX shit, never is and people need to give more time unless they want to regress
the BASIC mindsets that draw people to each party are so different even if the politics themselves are so similar
those on the right love their guns and see the world in "us VS them" terms where anyone different must be subjugated or destroyed. republicans, as individuals, tend to secretly wish they are the ruler of the universe
those on the right want fairness for everyone, no one to get hurt and basically want one big group hug. it just isn't in their nature to fight dirty when needed
A LOT of hate for obama from the radical right is simply because he's black. even before he had the chance to "not do anything", people were getting themselves revved up in a frenzy and looking for ANY excuse to criticize obama without admitting their TRUE reasons although some stupider people have been caught slipping up on camera or that infamous "there's a reason why it's called 'the white house'" email
maybe he really WAS an idealist, but i bet he got a dose of reality after he moved to DC
@djgambitron well he's black AND speaks sensible things...god if Obama said I'm gonna give you all rich folks tax cuts, they'd be for him, just look at that sell out, Michael Steele.
Obama gave the Repubicans a shot to discuss their great plans for Healthcare.
And we all found out that they have absolutely no ideas, no solutions and no alternatives. The only thing they brought to that meeting is their typical arrogance, obnoxious answers and questions, and their stupidity.
John Boehner is a sniveling, back-stabbing chiseler and not to be trusted. Obama handed these whiney GOPers their butts at that health care summit. It looked like the GOP actually believed that BS about Obama and a teleprompter. Forgive the analogy but knife to a gunfight anyone? We need more politicians who can mentally and verbally "man-up" like Obama did that day.
@DetroitGOP No you wouldn't go to that meeting because you don't want your ass handed to you. The GOP is acting like that kid in the grocery store that isn't getting his way so he collapses on the floor and throws a fit.
Republican Party became a symbol of ignorance, religious extremism and backwardness in this country. Fascinating story but it should not come as a surprise. If your "religion" is XIX century England model of capitalism you will attract only the lowest common denominator among the society, pseudo-educated "experts" with mentality straight from the state of Alabama/Alaska, and militant christian psychos who will suck your dick if you ban abortion.
Yes, please do define socialism for us. look up the national debt in comparison to our GDP throughout the past hundred years. the biggest contributers to the national debt have been Regan, Bush, and Bush. "W" took the helm of a country that had the largest surplus this century. Remember Enron? Look up over the counter trading of oil futures to know why gas prices went so high. Conservatives are a fucking cancer to this country and they rely on votes from idiots like you.
I don't know what this Turkish lad is watching, but I hear Boehner explaining that he deosn't want to fall for another Chicago thug ambush.
The GOP has outlined its requirements for health care reform. Obama rejects their ideas. I don't know why this Turkish lad is upset with the GOP and conservatives. The Democrat party has held a majority over the entire process for over a year now and they still couldn't get it done. Unbelievable.
It's no daunting task fixing 6 years of R's in control. Anti-healthcare-for-profit advocates (aka the REALpro-lifers) in congress have to find a way to reverse 30 years of public perception and find a way to collapse an industry that has become a self-fulfilling capitalist prophecy. it's the one thing that EVERYONE needs. to sell life or death is the most revolting idea i've every really thought about. i'm a HUGE fan of the free market concept, but i still believe that a few things are sacred.
Please show us again just how childish you can be. I Challenge ANYONE to Name just 1 thing Obama has done that helped this country, since he's been in office. Just One Thing. I'm waiting. November is coming and there will be major house cleaning of the Democrat trash in Washington. Remember this young folks..You are the ones that will be paying (IN DOLLARS)for these majestic Blunders. You know how you can tell when Obama is lying...If his lips are moving!! God Bless America! We sure need it.
Son, fool, 500 words are not enough to list them. The "lying..lips moving" joke is ancient, corny, and not funny. And Epitome: progressive queers? tired of paying bills? what? stop crying bitch. I work for a living, you don't pay my bills. I'm sick of you whiners, ignorant bastards that wouldn't know a commie if Trotsky was across the table. Go lay some cable, work in a mine, break your back like this liberal. YOU get a job punk. Sick of all you small minded weasels. tell me to get a job? MFP
the first day they reversed the provisions in the '2005 Bankruptcy Abuse Prevention and Consumer Protection Act' that caused the strain on american wallets and preventing bills from getting paid on time- ultimately being the catalyst of the mortgage crisis and this unemployment issue that was created and signed by (i'm going out on a limb here) the group of jerkoffs you put your X next to in the ballot box (unless you live in Texas's 14th district). thanks for the debt old guy. i'll be alright.
you're a jackass guy......Boehner looks and sounds perfectly reasonable.....He went and he handled himself very well, made his points and stuck to his guns....i think you're living in another world guy. you brainwashed dems are living in another world and you're going to get your butts kicked bad in the upcoming elections. loke you have already gotten your butts kicked in Massachusettes, Virginia and elsewhere.......Obama, Reid, and Pelosi are destroyimg the Democrat party thank goodness!
i agree this guy does suck; only at the end does he catch his rhythm. maybe should have done another take ... But, boener is as full of shit as tom delay or bill frist; yes this videoblogger lives on this planet, he just has a different set of experiences then you (it's pretty common); we're all brainwashed; you're looking too into the MA election- the ladies thought he was hot, and the Dem sucked ass; no comment; and overall, political party pride is what's wrong with this country.
i'm a reasonable guy, and i'm not a brainwashed republican, i'm a conservative....fact is that there are trends that can't be stopped and the democrat party, led down by Obama is trending down and there is probably nothing that can stop that train wreck in the upcoming House & Senate elections.....the same thing happened when Bill Clinton became president, people quickly saw what a mistake they made, just like with Obama now....people are starting to realize that Obama is a media created fraud
that's sooo not dialogue that i can't argue with. bill clinton won because Hunter S Thomson hated james baker III; Barack Obama is the son of a cultural anthropologist (serving africa and mankind), and was a CONSERVATIVE FEDERALIST at harvard (which is why headed the HLReview - he bridged rich republican white kids with civil rights energized democrat students). that's about as real-deal of a potential candidate as i've ever seen.
and what trends? fixing the bullshit from the previous 8 years?
Republican Party became a symbol of ignorance, religious extremism and backwardness in this country. Fascinating story but it should not come as a surprise. If your "religion" is XIX century England model of capitalism you will attract only the lowest common denominator among the society, pseudo-educated "experts" with mentality straight from the state of Alabama/Alaska, and militant christian psychos who will suck your dick if you ban abortion.
@MrWolf666: yep, there's going to be a revolution in November when we throw out a lot of these scumbag Democrats....thank your Obammy for the major losses...socialists...LOL
@Conservative: Damn right you are! And if these wannabe news people ever bothered to take a good look at the fierceness in Boehner's eyes, they would know he ain't afraid of "Nuttin", least of all Bararyboy. Pulllease!
@NYNYpatriot77: I saw that same look in KKKarl Rove's eyes when he said the polls were wrong and McCain Palin had the election won last November. Just more GOP disillusion and schizophrenia (which means a break with reality not multiple personality, open a text book every now and then, Pullease!). No wonder you all liked Reagan, he let all of you and those who blindly follow the GOP out of the mental hospitals.
Hasinai: I think maybe YOU are the one suffering from Schizophrenia...I know very well what the word and diagnosis mean. I deal with it daily in my line of work. But I've never used the term on Youtube Maybe it makes an ignoramus like YOURSELF feel important to try to correct someone...or maybe you just wanted to show off a new definition that 90% of folks already KNOW the meaning of. As for Rove, he was correct at the TIME, Palin gave huge boost. Thus Barry & Michelle sending hoards to Wasilla.
@ pjamesbda. It is not NEARLY that simple. When you put it that way, of course, who wouldn't support a universal system. But the problem is that a universal system is incredibly expensive. My health care is deducted from my pay check each week. Who pays for the health care of all the people out of work, or the ones who don't even want to work. I can't afford it thats for sure. So they say tax the wealthy, they can afford it. This includes all business owners. They dont hire when taxes are 60%+
let's be careful using and abusing these terms. univeral health care only means everyone can easily get health care often because everyone has insurance. The insurance has to be affordable to make sense. IT DOESN'T MEAN ITS A FREEBEE!!!
For those of us that choose to live in a mindset of betrayal, nothing is safe. But if you have the disciplen to listen, you will find it boils down to the argument of healthcare as a RIGHT or as a PRIVILEGE. Which is it to you?
If you think people without it should suffer and die, well then you think it is a privilege. If you think we all deserve decent care, then you think it is a right. Establish this, and the rest will work itself out. Know your mind, the rest will follow.
This "summit" was bull shit. I hope this bill goes no where. There is so much special interest kickback in this thing its astonishing. These people want nothing more than control. If you want to spend a trillion dollars on health care you could educate 1,000,000 new doctors and nurses with the cost of 1,000,000 each. That would give a flood of professionals which would undoubtable lower costs. Thats how much money is at stake here morons.
and considering the billions we've spent on war over the past decade, we certainly can't squander our resources on something as trivial as healthcare.... (??)
I like how Boehner keeps saying the same tired soundbites over and over again. You'd think Congressmen are supposed to actually be smart, and have the capacity for real discussion...
Democrat, republican doesn't matter, they represent different corporate conglomerates...definitely NOT the people.Any bill that gets passed will benefit industry at the expense of the people, you watch.
The US government has become the enemy of the American people...repeatedly fiscally raping them blind, and betrraying their interests every chance they get over the last 40 years.
why all this spending? TO GET US OUT OF THIS DEEP DEEP RUT THAT THE BUSH ADMINISTRATION brought us in !!!!! let's get out of this first, stimulate demand first so inventories will be bought, AND ONLY THEN WILL BUSINESSES HIRE!!!! why don't these republicans get a reviewer on macro 101?
Im starting to think they are scared that IF the plan goes in effect it will work great. and they are going to look like idiots. Think about it.....they want to stop it because i makes too much sense.

the "socialized medicine" argument is DEAD. it's still a purely profit based system that's good for big business & bad for the little guy. socializing healthcare would have meant ELIMINATING all the greedy middle men when in fact the "reform" benefits them! now if you don't pay greedy insurance companies, you'll get FINED.
if healthcare were truly socialized like IT SHOULD BE, insurance companies would get sent packing & obama wouldn't have made back room deals with pharmaceutical companies

@djgambitron i agree, this is why Obama's health care reform ain't really the best way to go...it places a few bites into the insurance company, but also hands them millions of new customers... we need to get rid of insurance companies, period, and replace it with a system that is non-profit...doctors can still make good money, nurses can still make good money, everyone who actually does work can make good money, but not those who sell insurance, because they don't do SHIT

"The economy is worse for having done the stimulus," says Norquist. "It's not that it helped a little bit. It didn't help at all!" The GOP, he insists, can make the same argument on health care: "There's nothing in the health care bill that's any good at all. It's all taxes and transfers of income. There's nothing in there that reduces the costs of health care for anybody."
In reality, both assertions are demonstrably wrong.

@DetroitGOP And you jerks get mad when people call you racists. Not only that, you whine and cry when the government returns taxpayer money to the people through social programs, but think nothing of handing it over to huge corporations who don't give a damn about you, only your money. The real problem is, you and your GOP aren't even the real villians. You're only tools.

Obama and the Liberals brought credit card reform to the American people the Republicans hated it. Now Obama wants to do the same thing with the Insurance Companies and the Republicans hate him for it.
They are being outed for exactly what they are; useless, uninterested and self serving.
If there is not money to go around for the Republicans they are never interested in anything.
They are going to have healthcare reform shoved up their collective asses.
Call your proctologist boys.

and the majority of the American people who are against Obama's reform need to get with the program. Who cares if you don't know everything thats in the bill. If Obama says its all good, then its all good! Who cares if this reform is modled after the epic failing modles in canada and france, WE can make it work with hope and change.

that republicans are greedy and selfish isn't news to anyone who refuses to drink GOPAC kool aid
even before elected and stole the budget surplus, bush said he was going to give tax cuts to the 2% richest americans who DON'T NEED IT
after the "MINOR" controversy over vote tampering in florida people were STILL more upset that clinton got a hum job than the ILLEGAL evidence that brought it to light
even when caught red handed, republicans are quickly forgiven by short attention spanners

you are so on point, just look at the polls in 2010 November, "BAD NEWS FOR DEMS" seems to be the only news in that arena. They gave OBAMA 2 years to fix things and now they want to revert back to the party that gave us the mess in the first place. I hope these GOP just run this country into the ground, then maybe we'll wake up finally and revolt against the GOP/Corporatists who truly run this country...did you hear what Rush said about hte oil spill? "The Ocean will Take Care of it" LOL

THAT comment will go over well with new orleans residents who rely on the coast & wetlands to make their living when they're still steaming over barbara bush's "let them eat cake" speech after katrina.
what's sad about your comment about those who would be most eager to overthrow the system are totally in it for the wrong reasons and bleeding heart liberals are too wishy washy to ever say "F### YOU!" to anyone.
it's not the GOVERNMENT that's the real problem, it's big biz pulling the strings
djgambitron 1 year ago
@djgambitron yes! liberals are too wishy washy because we think about htings and analyze and people are different...for some reason the GOP are super united, I dunno, they really do all drink from the same trough...Obama needs to constantly remind people the GOP + Bush caused this mess and it's NOT FREE to fix this shit...it's free to get this country into the mess but it ain't free to FIX shit, never is and people need to give more time unless they want to regress

the BASIC mindsets that draw people to each party are so different even if the politics themselves are so similar
those on the right love their guns and see the world in "us VS them" terms where anyone different must be subjugated or destroyed. republicans, as individuals, tend to secretly wish they are the ruler of the universe
those on the right want fairness for everyone, no one to get hurt and basically want one big group hug. it just isn't in their nature to fight dirty when needed

A LOT of hate for obama from the radical right is simply because he's black. even before he had the chance to "not do anything", people were getting themselves revved up in a frenzy and looking for ANY excuse to criticize obama without admitting their TRUE reasons although some stupider people have been caught slipping up on camera or that infamous "there's a reason why it's called 'the white house'" email
maybe he really WAS an idealist, but i bet he got a dose of reality after he moved to DC

Obama gave the Repubicans a shot to discuss their great plans for Healthcare.
And we all found out that they have absolutely no ideas, no solutions and no alternatives. The only thing they brought to that meeting is their typical arrogance, obnoxious answers and questions, and their stupidity.
BoomerNavy70 2 years ago
John Boehner is a sniveling, back-stabbing chiseler and not to be trusted. Obama handed these whiney GOPers their butts at that health care summit. It looked like the GOP actually believed that BS about Obama and a teleprompter. Forgive the analogy but knife to a gunfight anyone? We need more politicians who can mentally and verbally "man-up" like Obama did that day.

The GOP has outlined its requirements for health care reform. Obama rejects their ideas. I don't know why this Turkish lad is upset with the GOP and conservatives. The Democrat party has held a majority over the entire process for over a year now and they still couldn't get it done. Unbelievable.

It's no daunting task fixing 6 years of R's in control. Anti-healthcare-for-profit advocates (aka the REALpro-lifers) in congress have to find a way to reverse 30 years of public perception and find a way to collapse an industry that has become a self-fulfilling capitalist prophecy. it's the one thing that EVERYONE needs. to sell life or death is the most revolting idea i've every really thought about. i'm a HUGE fan of the free market concept, but i still believe that a few things are sacred.

that's sooo not dialogue that i can't argue with. bill clinton won because Hunter S Thomson hated james baker III; Barack Obama is the son of a cultural anthropologist (serving africa and mankind), and was a CONSERVATIVE FEDERALIST at harvard (which is why headed the HLReview - he bridged rich republican white kids with civil rights energized democrat students). that's about as real-deal of a potential candidate as i've ever seen.

@ pjamesbda. It is not NEARLY that simple. When you put it that way, of course, who wouldn't support a universal system. But the problem is that a universal system is incredibly expensive. My health care is deducted from my pay check each week. Who pays for the health care of all the people out of work, or the ones who don't even want to work. I can't afford it thats for sure. So they say tax the wealthy, they can afford it. This includes all business owners. They dont hire when taxes are 60%+

let's be careful using and abusing these terms. univeral health care only means everyone can easily get health care often because everyone has insurance. The insurance has to be affordable to make sense. IT DOESN'T MEAN ITS A FREEBEE!!!

For those of us that choose to live in a mindset of betrayal, nothing is safe. But if you have the disciplen to listen, you will find it boils down to the argument of healthcare as a RIGHT or as a PRIVILEGE. Which is it to you?
If you think people without it should suffer and die, well then you think it is a privilege. If you think we all deserve decent care, then you think it is a right. Establish this, and the rest will work itself out. Know your mind, the rest will follow.
pjamesbda 2 years ago
This "summit" was bull shit. I hope this bill goes no where. There is so much special interest kickback in this thing its astonishing. These people want nothing more than control. If you want to spend a trillion dollars on health care you could educate 1,000,000 new doctors and nurses with the cost of 1,000,000 each. That would give a flood of professionals which would undoubtable lower costs. Thats how much money is at stake here morons.
