Gibbs: 'One Vote' Away

[cavetrollhead]

Health care reform doesn't have to mean Obamacare. Conservatives want reform too. And remember that Democrats oppose Obamacare. What about tort reform, allowing us to shop accross state lines and providing more medical schools to drop tuition?

The next move for the progressives it so spend the rest the stimulus money right before the mid-term election to prop up the economy long enough to get their agenda through.

[usaleftistsareidiots]

Leftists always pander to the ignorant. What kind of idiot thinks that they are going to get something for nothing?.............Sheeesh! It's like dealing with a bunch of special children!

[jane5457]

I just heard the leader from canada is coming to usa for surgery...proff that we do have the best health care anywhere....

[roachmobile]

@jane5457

Sorry, it is the premier of Newfoundland. Yes, the heart surgery may be better than than of Newfoundland in New York. Any other embellishments you want to try?

[PatricksTime]

the problem is we are just not smart enough to know the facts...obama needs to remind the american people about our values.

great whitehouse strategy!

[PatricksTime]

wow only 2 stars...says a lot

[gone556]

Thank god its dead.

[LibertarianismLives]

Inside the 5 yard line? Ha!

More like inside their own 5 yard line and are trying to come up with ways to bribe the ref into looking the other way.

[cavetrollhead]

@LibertarianismLives Our republic is dying.

[fpinon5150]

Gibbs should be selling Vacuums Cleaners. I would not trust Him with a freaking BB Gun!!!

[LiveFreeOrDie091]

They had 61 votes and could not get it passed.Dems are lame ducks. The people ,the real people,the silent majority has spoken.And they heard everything we said !

[natashiapelouski]

gibbs is even a bigger bs artist than his boss.

Would you trust gibbs or obama with your money?

I rest my case.

They would take your money and buy blank voter ballots so they can register dead people next election and the rest pay for lawyers for terrorists.

[TheIncongruent]

I am alarmed. I am worried about Constitutional America. The current administration is bent on the destruction of capitalism. They want to replace capitalism with socialism (communism light). They want central planning for every aspect of American life. It won't resemble American life for much longer. They will lie until the cows come home. They will lie until we all turn blue. They will say all the right things, but they are lying, and they will do the opposite of what they say.Blame others.

[jensen1901]

I am alarmed at your ignorance. The current administration is not "bent on the destruction of capitalism." Hyperbole much? If you having noticed, Obama;s treasury secretary used to work at Goldman Sachs, the VERY DEFINITION of a capitalist company.

Jesus H Christ you conservatives are shamefully stupid.

[Schwochert]

@jensen1901- i believe that is the point. capitalism is bad for everyone else but good for them. ASSHOLE!

[jensen1901]

What the fuck are you TALKING about???? Capitalism is good for everyone. I believe that, you believe that, Gibbs believes that, Obama believes that and his treasury secretary believes that.

[TheIncongruent]

Like koolaid?

Look at the status of our businesses in this country today. Look at employment, except in government , today. Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain, go out and smell the coffee and see for yourself how well our business community is doing compared to the growth of government.

[jensen1901]

I have been looking at the status of business all morning. I trade stocks. And business is doing very well at MANY companies. The economy is coming back in a big way. People are building homes again, people are buying goods. It will take time to see, but there is an unmistakable turnaround afoot.

[TheIncongruent]

Koolaid.

Words. Rhetoric. The economy is coming back. People are buying homes again. People are buying goods. What a load of crap.

We have almost 20% of our workforce unemployed and on government hand outs. Government hand outs are at an all time high. Government, knowing that 10% of the people can provide 100% of our needs, goods and services. Making the move now towards communism, and trying not to reveal the plan too soon. It could blow up

[jensen1901]

It's not a "load of crap." I just made $4000 on stocks last week because profits are going UP at companies that sell everything from microchips (people are buying laptops again) to airline tickets. While you are wrong that unemployment is at 20%, it is still too high now at around 10%. Still, jobs are coming as companies struggle to fill orders and look to expand in what is clearly a growing economy. The Commerce Dept. says the economy grew at its fastest pace in 6 years last quarter.

[TheIncongruent]

Scoundrels hiding behind meaningless, deceptive statistics. The last refuge for a scoundrel is statistics. Need I explain it to you?

I think not. What is in it for you when the economy goes completely belly up and the currency tanks. How will you survive when there are no goods or services available at any price and we are living in a Mad Max world? Hope you are not prepared to deal with it, as you are one who seems to support it. What is in it for you?

[jensen1901]

"Making the move towards communism"

LOL. What are you talking about? Whole morons like you spew talking points you hear on Hannity smart people like me who live in the real world are making real world capitalist money.

[Schwochert]

hey Jensen, if you knew what the hell you were talking about you might be fucking dangerous. SPREADING THE WEALTH AROUND ISNT CAPITALISM. that means taking other's people's shit and GIVING it to everybody else. thats right fuck working for it. fuck aspiring to be something. just sit back and wait for that governement check to roll in. doesnt seem like capitalism to me. his actions are speaking louder than his double-talking mouth. LEARN TO LISTEN!

[jensen1901]

Wow. So just because Obama said that to "Joe the Plumber" you believe it? He was talking in a BROAD sense back then and it is not policy. Look at Obama;a current policy and you will see he is very much a corporatist just like Bush, not a socialist like Fox tells you he is.

[jane5457]

so true..well said...

[quizerry]

The healthcare bill is trash and will raise premiums on everyone. It does nothing to cut healthcare cost and will actually raise cost. The American people don't want it. Don't they get it.

[PerryLogan]

We've learned to trust this guy implicitly.

[scalducci]

I think I finally understand where the Right is at these days. They realize after all the truth they were told over the last administrations' 8 years, they are just sick and tired of all these seething lies and deceit this current administration exudes. Totally understand.

[endisnighe]

From the mouth of Propaganda Minister.

STFU, pass the billl and see what happens.

When people realize, that if you do not pay, you go to jail!

I think nooses will be much more likely than jail!

[toneo2001]

You say you need to "sit down and listen to each other" NO!!! You need to listen to the American people who want no part of your version of "Health care reform"!!!! We said no, now move on!!

[lenny380]

You guys have failied miserably - "moveon" (dotorg) ya

[cam1126]

Gibbs is the most idiotic press secretary in History, libs hate America and that is why I dislike the idiot loons

[jensen1901]

Hey cam, libs do NOT "hate Ametrica" and you do not speak for liberals or Democrats.

How about you have a nice cold drink of SHUT THE FUCK UP.

[TTURedRaidr]

One Unconstitutional Bribe or extortion away, eh?

[themunz126]

If it were so popular, why do they have to bribe and threaten people to get it through and they still are short on votes. It is time they dropped this and started representing the people. WE DO NOT WANT THIS.

[Panchee123]

hey Gibbs, you don't know shit about my business. Fuck off. How about you guys get this health care for a while so the people can make a decision based on what happen to congress. For once you guys be the lab rats

[CommonSenseJoe]

The lies are not working. They keep repeating them over and over and even the media has stop spreading them.

[AUnknownC]

Its NOT about the kids having health care.....this is RHETORIC...."feel sorry for the kids".  Its about OWNING you and YOUR FAMILY and deciding IF they live or die by the health care they DECIDE FOR YOU !!!! They say its "scare tactics"....PEOPLE HAVE A RIGHT TO BE SCARED.....this is a TOTAL take over folks. They will be holding YOUR LIFE in their hands ....LITERALLY. STOP THIS NOW.

[AUnknownC]

THIS IS ANOTHER GM deal folks. They are gonna FORCE the private insurers into "contracts" with the government. If they refuse, they will be SHUT down like the GM dealerships were. Either outright or by impossible regulations, taxes or other methods. They will KEEP the private names to FOOL YOU, but the companies will be called "exchanges" and be FULLY gov owned. NONE will be private, a total gov takeover ! They will decide the care you get if any.....this is PURE EVIL....DONT BE FOOLED !

[AUnknownC]

THEY CLAIM they WANT us to have good health care, but if you have a decent policy that YOU PAY FOR AND LIKE, they call it a "cadillac plan" and tax you 40% for it? Sounds to me like, they really DONT want you to have GOOD health care....They want you to have THEIR HEALTH CARE WHICH THEY CONTROL AND DENY !!! Its all about OWNING US and the health of you and your family....BE SCARED, BE VERY SCARED !!!! These people are PURE EVIL......

[AUnknownC]

Obama's State Of the Union Address he said the following, "every day isnt election day" and continued to say he is GOING FULL FORCE AHEAD with his agendas !!!! GUESS WHAT? EVERY DAY IS ELECTION DAY !!!! Each NEW DAY we Americans CAN CHOOSE TO VOTE THEM OUT !!!! HE THINKS he is just going to do as THEY PLEASE, then give some flowery speech and STILL GET RE ELECTED !!! CHOOSE TODAY TO VOTE THEM ALL OUT....they are NOT hearing US and that we DONT WANT THIS !!! TODAY IS ......ELECTION DAY.

[AUnknownC]

They claim they were "giving up" the public option BUT IT WAS ALWAYS THERE !!!! They are going to threaten and take over the private insurers and KEEP the private names and call it an "exchange" folks !!! There will be NO option , it will ALL be gov owned, operated, regulated, and controlled, they WILL DECIDE ALL THE CARE YOU RECIEVE !!! It was ALWAYS the "public option" ...dont be fooled and DONT BE SILENCED....STOP THIS NOW !!! VOTE THEM ALL OUT ASAP !!!

[AUnknownC]

PELOSI says she will "pole vault in" and if that dont work she will "parachute in". Well guess what? I hope she LANDS in the midst of about a hundred pit bull dogs or on electric wires.....IN OTHER WORDS THEY ARE GONNA DO THIS EVER HOW THEY NEED TO DO IT....WHETHER WE LIKE IT OR NOT....RIGHT DOWN OUR THROATS !!!! VOTE THEM ALL OUT !!!! ALL OF THEM !!! Come on America, LET THEM HEAR OUR VOICE !!!

[AUnknownC]

THE OBAMA ADMINISTRATIONS NEW BOOK ......."How we handed our Presidency to Sarah Palin: The Chronicles of Losing a Dictatorship" LOL ! The only thing THEY FEAR and hate....ONE woman from Alaska. They had BETTER be "fearing" the American people....they are GOING TO BE VOTED OUT IN HUGE NUMBERS IF THEY CONTINUE and they SAY they are FULL FORCE AHEAD......

[AUnknownC]

Yeah and PELOSI said MONTHS ago.....she had the votes...HOW MANY TIMES? LOL? Yeah sure! If they want to LOSE ELECTIONS IN ALL 50 STATES...this will DO IT !!!! PEOPLE DONT WANT THIS.....but they ARE HELL BENT ON SEEING THIS HAPPEN....ITS CALLED "DICATORSHIP". It is ALL about OWNING you and YOUR family....plain and simple and deciding FOR YOU, what care you will get ! It always WAS the "public option", they will OWN and strong arm ALL the insurance companies, but keep the private names.

[micsc50]

Inside the 5 yard line my ass. If they pass this unpopular bill its the end of the democRATs party and their power and they know it. Obama will takes his party to hell with this health care bill.

[duhCider]

The bill does little or nothing to reign in costs. It is not reform.

[HockeyPhil]

Do these meatheads walk through life with blinders on? The AMERICAN PEOPLE don't want this bill to pass. November can't get here soon enough.

[Tom63010]

These people are insane!

They may spin that Scott Brown's election was a full speed ahead on Obamacare but we know better.

They pass this the Democrat Party will be on life support!

If everyone is so desperate to have Nationalized Health Care then why is it that it benefits won't be available until 2014???

We will start being taxed for it for four years. If an insurance tried to collect premiums for four years before paying a claim the politicians would be screaming bloody murder!

[AUnknownC]

Tom, its so they can STEAL the money over that time period, get voted out and run like hell with the cash and put it in their freezers. Then they will blame Bush or someone ELSE why the health care didnt happen. Its to TAKE away from those who HAVE decent health care, not provide it to those who dont. Its jealousy of those who LIKE and PAY for their health care. They will be OWNING private companies and keeping private names to FOOL PEOPLE, its a GOV take over...always WAS !

[scarlett828]

Obama tool.

[flagwaver1969]

Gibbs is as full of shit as Axelrod and Obama.
