  • Single-payer NOW! Politicians who don't enact it must be cut off at the source of their refusal = the money factor and the quid pro quo revolving door of 'legalized bribery' (credit: M. Ivins) in Washington D.C. Furthermore, corporations must NOT be recognized as people and the U.S. Constitutional Amendment currently in-progress must garner more support in order to reverse the damage from the CItizen's United v. FEC case. We have to tackle one in order to tackle the other in a two-step.

  • Max Baucus: " we need more police."

    No Max, we need a senator who *LISTENS* to the American people!!! Over 60% of the American people are demanding a single-payer health care system! No, you don't deeply care about what the public wants. You are interested in only contributing to more fraud & abuse by the private health insurance companies and I am shamed that you are a member of Congress, Max Baucus!

    As a registered democrat for life, I hope you get your ass whipped by a repub next election!

  • Max Baucus: you are so corrupt, you totally prove you are just another corporate-insurance bought politician. As a democrat myself, I hope you royally lose your seat in the Senate as soon as possible.

    Fuck you, Max Baucus and everything you stand for, you piece of shit!!!!

  • Haha. Baucus. "I care deeply about your views". LAWL. More than 50% of all Americans want single payer, and 0% of your committee represents this position.

    He's either a scumbag or mentally challenged.

  • We hit it off so well after another visit busizz4me.info

  • We hit it off so well after another visit busizz4me.info

  • take hard working people's money and give it to the lazy fucks of america, fuck the liberals

  • Max, what the fuck did you just say? What a load of nonsensical shit! If you CARED you asshole, you would have included speakers!

    "GO FUCK YOURSELF!"

    --Dick Cheney (unconvinced war criminal)

  • All these old bossy guys will die soon enough

  • Vote no to the hostel take over of another private american industry. Do people really allow themselves to believe that having everything under the control of the government is a good plan? Stop being a god damned GIMMIE and earn the things you want, stop forcing the rest of us to pay for it. Those of you making under a certain amount a year will likely pay little if any for this. Make sure you tell your kids how mommy and daddy didn't feel like earning money so they gave up and stole it.

  • @detest4321 you have no idea what you are talking about. Single payer would cost less money for Americans than private insurance, by stripping down the multitude of insurance billing bureaucracies, million dollar ad campaigns, large pay and bonuses for CEO's and overall profit/greed driven motivation, well paid lobbyists, and as a single entity Single Payer could get better prices on pharmaceuticals.

  • I didn't comment on the cost, I spoke about the government take over of healthcare industry. How much you think it will cost us to be taxed for 4-5 years for government insurance only for it to come into effect at the end of that term. All the while paying for your real insurance on top of that. Sounds like a killer way to save money. Wait, that doesn't save anyone money. Oh, its all about growing government at all costs under the guise of helping people and crippling the american economy.

  • @detest4321 sounds like you are talking about costs. One possibility for Single Payer is that medicare would simply be expanded to encompass everyone. You would pay more in taxes, but you would no longer pay for private insurance. The difference in cost would be in your favor. Read my 1st post again as to how health care costs would be cut. This is different from the public option, which I'm not convinced will cut costs.

  • Yes, I started on costs since you brought it up. :) Regardless, this is just what is wanted, people talking about the specifics of this vs that and ignoring the big issue. See The 10th Amendment for clarity. If you wanna debate doing this on a per state basis, then there is a debate. Otherwise there is no power given to our federal legislators to even talk about this, much less vote on it. That isn't my only reason to oppose such a thing, but it is the only one needed.

  • @detest4321 Thanks for pointing out the amendment, and being civil. I get tired of YouTube "debates" that are simply people cursing. Medicare is a limited federal SP system that exists right now, and SP could be done in theory by expanding it. The financial problems of medicare are another issue, and I won't speculate now how a major overhaul would affect it. BTW, I do believe strongly in personal responsibility, and staying healthy to begin w/.

  • Restore order? There is no order with these monsters.

  • i dont care if they ban health care all together, fuck health care, health care is the worst thing congress passed in history

  • Is there a place online where the people can see where senators receive moneys from corp, entities, individuals, the causes they support etc?

  • Leave it to your kids not the Lawyers or Courts.

  • These are the kinds of videos that will incite a peasant uprising. America will have its Bastille Day, where these bastard politicians will be marched up and fucking beheaded. The revolution is coming, and it will be violent. There will be another Kent State, in which Someone will die fighting this corrupt government before any democracy will ever be restored. Fuck you, Max Baucus!

  • This is bullshit...

    Single Payer is not even having a say even though our health care providers are supporting this!!!!

    The American people better wake up!!!!

    Say no to Corporate Slavery and Greed

    Support HR 676

  • These senators don't represent America. Baucus is a fraud.

  • oops, I meant between 1:54 and 2:00? I can't seem to make it out clearly.

    Could they be referring to his APF back home???

  • Can anyone tell me what is being said between 2:23 to 2:30 between Bachus and Grassilly?

  • Is that a "D" next their names?

  • (202) 224-2651

    This is the phone number for the Washington office of Sen. Max Baucus.

    Call and request that he reject all money from insurance lobbyists or finally admit that he is bought and paid for by private insurance companies.

  • Don't think he (D) or Grassley (R) will give any money back...the millions as reported elsewhere they took from insurance lobbyists).  We need a system with Lobbyists and payola. Thanks for the phone #.

  • I mean without Lobbyists. Even if 70% of us want and demand free health care Congress is owned by the Insurance Lobbyists. As we must get rid of black box voting booths to get a real vote we also must say no to all big Corporate conglomerants who taint our system with their crooked little lawyers (like the one who gave us Bush). He wants unlimited corporate money going from Big Business to our "Representatives."  Today I listened to two liars of TX...

  • Senator Baucus is a mercenary for hire, not a legislator. Right now his employer is the private insurance lobby.

  • T/Y CNN.

    When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for ONE people to dissolve the political partys which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate & EQUAL station to which the Laws of Nature & of Natures God ENTITLE them, a Decent Respect to the opinions of HUMANKIND requires that they should declare the CAUSES which impel them to the separation.-" from corporate cannibals & denialcare barons.

    Single Payer or die Broke!

  • Baucus is absolutely right, they really do need more police. Enough police to arrest every single one of the crooks that are sitting on that panel.

  • Harley riding !?

    You mean pickup driving truck nutz swinging yee haws with a gun rack in the back.

  • I wish I could just punch grassly in the face.

  • Dennis Kucinich for President!

  • these protestors have rights.

  • fuck that! you're a dreamer. Whenever I exercise my freedom on speech, I get assaulted by not one but a gang of rednecks cuz they're too cowardly to take me on man to man. And then when the cop shows up, he sides with the fellow republican whiteys who all served in the military just like the cop. America is not free....you're only free to agree with the white trash harley riding rednecks.

  • It's time to eliminate the political ruling elite.

  • Those smug "leaders" are bought and paid by insurance companies.

    He is laughing (Baucus).Then he says he cares...LIAR.

  • Good for you!

  • somethings never change.when Canada brought in universal healthcare in the province of Saskatchewan [.Early 1960's]the A.M.A and American Insurance companies sent thousands of protesters across the border.they picketed all universal health care meetings in Saskatchewan and called the Premier a Communist.this escalated into a massive campaign to defeat the Govt.THEY FAILED and in a few years all of Canada had Universal Health Care.

  • Senator Buckus took $667,000 campaign donation from the insurance companies in his last election. I wonder how he is going to vote on public health plan.

  • I have known for a while now how CORRUPT " MAX THE CORPORATE WHORE " is... iT'S OUTRAGEOUS HOW BOUGHT OFF PRICKS LIKE HIM ARE EVEN IN CONGRESS !!! tHEY ARE NOTHING MORE THAN WHORES !!!

  • He should change his name to Max "They Bought my

    Office."

    He and Grassley are bought and paid for.

  • I wonder what it's like to be bought and paid for, where you have to do what youre told as opposed to actually doing your job.

    It must suck.

  • These stodgy bastards all have the best of health care as well as secure jobs. How in hell can anyone intelligently expect them to be less than apathetic about the lives of others? This is a case of those who have, ruling over those who have not. America has always been this way so what else could anyone expect from this lineup of takers and users?

    These mucky-mucks have never been in the shoes of the common people who put them in their high places. This is the real face of American politics.

  • wow amen

  • Wow. What a vile and dishonest piece of refuse Baucus is. Montana really needs to show that they can do better than that.

  • Fuck the police, Fuck the senate. Mr. Baucus looks like a shithead idiot who sleeps with little blankies. Fuck them all, they're stupid because they're Senators. I want all 100 of them to know that they're stupid, bad shitty people, because they have a career in public office, a stupid career that's a piece of shit. Fuck Senators, your ugly Senate chamber is a piece of shit, I hope the chamber collapses someday and kills all the Senators inside. The sound of dying Senators is music to my

  • We have 13 brave soldiers, in this movement for a single-payer!

    They seek healthcare justice, i'ts because they care.

    these people were arrested, for things they knew were right.

    May serve time, pay heavy fines, for our wellbeing they fight. One of my most recent songs. Like it or not, I made heroes of the 13 who spoke up for single-payer. Affordable Healthcare is a RIGHT.

  • Take away the tax dollar funded health care for congress and then have the discussion.

    Perhaps seeing things from a 'normal' persons view point would help their decision making process.

    --

    Why would people who have the best possible FREE health care worry about those that don't?

    --

    Think Free.

  • I would prefer it run and unbyass or party blind orginization not big business dems nor fringe right winged reps. Im not saying that thats all that consist in each party but those are most of the ones you hear from and that are sitting on those committees

  • Dont get me wrong there are some politicians and public officials who do honestly want to do good for people out there it just so happens though that when your on the side of the I guess you'd call it the"Little Man" and not all for capital gain and meeting the Washington politics status que you dont get the funds to actually be heard. So we the people are stuck with the phonies who want to secretely keep this fucked up cycle of, Keep the sick sick the poor poor and make the rich richer going.

  • I'm all for a public run healthcare system but I wouldn't want it run by the government. At least not a government thats run on anti-union big business and insaurance conglomerates they control most of the politicians in congress and all over the country. If you cut them out of the equation most of the public officials wouldn't have millions dumped or "donated" to them and they couldn't afford they're greedy if not gluttonous lifestyles.

  • It's already run by the government for the benefit of insurance companies who have a hand up Max Baucus's ass. Single payer advocates are just trying to get the government to represent and work for all people and not just super wealthy people.

  • "Our" Representatives are vile .

  • The origins of community healthcare came from freindly societies. Healthcare operating today, is tainted with psuedoscience, driven by busy-ness & the pursuit of the fiction of money.

    People are being slaughtered by the devices currently presiding over our societies & this will continue until people take back what has been stolen from them through the deceptions of the present agendas. Do not look to Washington to resolve these issues, as you can clearly see, it is merely a club of corruption.

  • Our well paid elected representatives in Washington have excellent health care! They take care of themselves very nicely.

  • 1:45 need more police eh? maybe not, maybe you should listen to the people that provide the funding to pay your check and make sure you get the best heath care in the US. Just a thought.

  • Vomit-inducing. To watch them sit there and yuk it up about such a serious issue makes me ill. Fuck Max Baucus.

  • it kinda bothers me how they just sit and laugh. This has to do with OUR lives. They have plenty of money to get the best health care...we do not.

  • If they pass this awful health care "reform" they have now in the senate I will pray that lightning strikes every health insurance CEO in the country.

    If Max Baucus dies I will literally dance on his grave.

  • I've done it before and I'll do it again.

  • isnt the first amendment so AWESOME?

  • For all intents, and purposes, you're a moron. Or a douche, possibly both. Every vote counts towards the total percentage in the end. 5% earns a party federal funding. Enough people voting third-party tends to agitate the main parties into redefining their message. It's funny, you say now I didn't vote, but in 2000, all those people voting for Nader "not voting" somehow cost Gore his election, in your twisted minds logic. If the ticket has only crooks, I'll submit a damn write-in if I must.

  • And at the end he basically tells us to sit down and shut up and be good little sheep. If we want real healthcare reform we need to change into a stampede of single payer bulls. Massive protests in Washington people!

  • Health care should be a RIGHT in America as it is in every civilized country.

  • Militiaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa is the only thing these elites will ever understand!

  • Bless all those protesters who are fighting for Single Payer. Its so sad to see our Politicians (especially Democrats) to be bought out by corporate lobbyists.

  • Obviously you've condemned yourself to settling for less in life and never attempting change, so that's cool.

  • Baucus does know what comes around goes around- does he not? (The shit w/ him goes deeper than him sucking @ this hearing...research his history)

  • Baucus " We want police "

    "Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha.... haaaah "

  • Congress/Obama are owned by the insurance industry.When will Americans throw these greedy bastards out of office? They just laugh at us and take the corporate money.They don't represent us,but Americans keep voting for these scoundrels like Baucus.Wake up we need single payer now !

  • I've started writing, "Support Single-Payer (HR 676)!"and "The Obama/Congress health care proposal is a sham!" along with Youtube links on the backs of all my paper money. I always heard money talks and walks, and I figured it would be a really quick way to widely spread the word and get more people talking about it. I'm not against Obama as a whole, I just completely disagree with his and Congress' health care ideas. They will ruin us all with this CRAP!!!

  • The issue here is not whether Single Payer will be the most beneficial system or not. The issue is that when considering Health Care reform every option must be evaluated and compared in order to ensure that the best program is chosen. Here that is not the case, Single Payer is not even considered. Thus, it will be inconclusive as to whether this Health Care reform will truly obtain the most beneficial program. If Single Payer isn't good for Americans put it on the table and prove it.

  • You said it, DemianNelson! If it's such a bad, terrible idea, that they believe the public will not want, then why not put it on the table and prove how "bad" it's supposed to be? Why not openly discuss it and bring out the cons and pros, like they pretend to be doing with the other crappy ideas? I soooo agree with you on that! Just goes to show how afraid they are that it is the best idea of them all and that the public WILL want it; then there goes all their big paychecks and campaign monies.

  • "Comments from the audience are innapropriate and out of order" -NO...BAUCASS YOU FUCKING DOUCHBAG...people are dying because private insurance chooses their right to fucking suck, therefore "comments" fighting for human life & human rights will NEVER be "innappropriate" ....fucking douch

  • I heard a congresswoman on a radio talk show yesterday...she knew things about Baucass yet would not say on air. Something else is going on w/ this d-bag...I say if you have the time research Baucass.... from his birth

  • Baccus Grassley and the guy who pretended to run for office what's his name need to be out of office. Insurance Companies and big money will not let the people rule. I am for single payer not for profit health care (not that I'd use it, I boycott the pharmaceutical companies and all Doctor's out of principle -- they are not healing (especially hospitals). Some good nurses though (give em a raise). Dr's are ok for stting bones though. We must take care of ourselves (I am a hippocrite)..TRUTH

  • Protesters are useless...Want to make a point? Take a rifle with you. They will listen then.

    "Had enough or are you thirsty for more?"

    --Kevin McAllister--

  • Yeah please dont stand up and bother the crooks.... No freedom in corruption.

  • Can you see the devil in the eyes of those laughing pieces of shit? I can.

  • whether or not you agree with those protesting at these venues--on camera-you are looking at (the spirit of) Truth to Power!!!

    I LOVE IT!!!!!!! for those of you who have nothing but insults, i ask, what are YOU doing to pull the Republic back together?

    taking sides against eachother?

    dems/ repubs

    left/ right

    liberal/ conservative

    you are doing nothing but bitch and point your fingers while the Constitution is being DESTROYED

    it sucks

  • Actually, I'll vote for whoever the hell I want. It's my right. I refuse to let the two parties and their corporate donors decide who I should vote for.

    I'd rather vote for the honest candidate and have him lose, and feel good about myself, then play the set-up "pick the lesser evil" game.

  • These senators are nothing more than corrupt clowns. They don't represent the true interests of the American people--they only represent the health care special interests that keep them in campaign money. Corrupt, corrupt, corrupt!! That is the accurate description of 98% of what goes on in DC.

  • Maybe if we have a bake sale, we can raise enough money to buy a seat at the table for single payer representatives. We know what Baucus is, guess we are just negotiating a price right now.

    This for sale to the highest bidder slug has been an elected "official" since 1973 (just a few years after graduating from law school). He has never had to be accountable at a real job, to a real boss or had to buy real health insurance. We the people need to take away his health insurance.

  • I was wondering this myself! I contacted my local and some of the major media news outlets lastnight and asked them why they have not put this on the news. One of the local newsrooms in my area said they had not even heard of this event!! Can you believe that?? These are the same media who reported about two senators fighting in Congress but they don't know about 8 people getting arrested!! That's how hush hush this has been! UNREAL!!

  • Attempt to post link to response from senator here = banned.

    Attempt to post video in response to this clip = banned

    Attempt to post response by user with 'singlepayercentral' channel = banned

    These are YOUR tax dollars that fund CSPAN. What do you think? Let them know.

  • I of 2 comments:

    I am concerned not just re this but CSPAN's posting of it and how they are handling this. 1st of all, it was not ONE "protestor" but there were several. Furthermore, just by the description, the emphasis here seems to be simply on sensationalism rather than giving people some more explanatory information.

  • We need more police! Ha Ha Ha ! We Need More Police to Arrest the Corporatists Infesting Our Government!

  • Senator Max Baucus IS a BABBLING Idiot!

    He's in bed with Massachusetts Senator Ted Kennedy!

    Remember the siezure he got on Cape Cod at his home? He got better Healthcare than a Cashier on barely making Minimum Wage in an Inner City Neighborhood would EVER get!

    Kennnedy gets to rest at home.....the cashier has to get back to work ASAP to keep up with that HUGE Medical Bill to pay.

    Remember: Kennedy NEVER had to worry about such a bill.

    THIS is Obama's America.

  • The senators are laughing SMDH. I would think they would be interested in hearing what "THE PEOPLE" really want and care about. Do I believe everything should be done decent and order? Yes, but this is an exception because these people are desperate for help. Give the people what they want!!

  • No, give them what they NEED.

  • Amen! Yes, forgive me. Give them what they NEED.

  • ITS OFFICIAL!!! I now despise Barack Obama more than George W. Bush. 1He refuses to appoint a special prosecutor to punish Bush for his illegal WIRE TAPPING and TORTURING ways. Its becoming real clear that our government tortured detainees not for information but for forced confessions. 2 He's NOT pushing for Single Payer Health Care. 3 He's killing innocent civilians in Afghanistan 4He does NOT support Gay Marriage 5 He keeps on wasting our money on stupid bailouts that don't work.

  • Baucus (or whatever the fuck his name is) is is a fucking psychopath- the "comments" may have been "out of order" ...but "innapropriate"....because people are dying..because they don't have health insurance...how the fuck is that statement "innapropriate"??? How the fuck is a statement fighting for human rights and HUMAN LIFE "innapropriate"???!!!

  • It is so obvious that our politicians care nothing about the opinions and needs of the American people that it is just pathetic. These men receive so much money from Health Insurance companies that they will never do anything against them.

  • I'll bet it would feel really good to "tap" max baucus on the head with that freaking gavel. I want HIS health insurance!!!

  • yea we need more police to arrest corrupt politicans!

  • the police should take all these corrupt politicians to prison.

  • the american government is out of order. the only reason to NOT implement single payer is to keep funnelling profits to health insurance companies instead of using those funds to pay for health care so everyone gets care. these corrupt politicians are on the take from the criminal "health insurance " industry. screw them all. those companies should be shut down and not a penny of tax funds or any other monies should go to them.

  • The F*ck! he didn't answer the question we have 15 seats and not one for single payer, why is that?

  • What a farce our senate is. They had a so called roundtable discussion on healthcare

    and not one representative for Single Payer healthcare which is supported by most Americans including most Doctors and nurses. The profit incentive must be removed from healthcare. Police, Firemen, Schools, Libraries are provided by government and Health should be at the top of that list! 20,000 people die each year in the U.S. each year who lack health care coverage.

  • Single payer is a good step forward. But really health care should be a guaranteed right and the system of health care delivery must be changed so that care is available to people who need it despite the capacity to pay.

  • Ladies & Gents,

    Behold the tight grip that the insurance companies & corporations have on the cajones of our so-called representatives. Yea, Baucus, it must be hilarious to mock those who want a seat at a table to discuss healthcare in our country. But, I guess they haven't figured out yet that all of you so-called Senators have all been bought & paid for by the insurance companies who won't be happy until health care will only be for the wealthy & you in the Senate & House.

  • If Baucus "cares about our healthcare and views" WHY THE FUCK is there noone representing single payment at the table of 15? fuck the senate

  • Stop paying taxes end of problem!

  • We need more police he says! Aint that convenient?

  • Single payer advocates are not only not allowed in the forum but are removed by the police. This is seriously wrong. The pharmaceutical companies win again. Baucus is in their pocket. Shame on us for allowing this.

  • America

  • wow im 16 and im not realy into politics and stuff but i was listnining to this guy and saw how ironic his lecture was he speaks of respecting everyones views yet he didnt lend an ear to those who were speaking their views and called the cops on them.now im just ASSUMING he doesnt wanna go with the single payer thing and yet he has the odasity to say that the majority of the people belive that this is the way to go.now think who seems to know what the people need this one man or the majority of

  • These hysterical far left scum try to prevent any discussion of any issue. Every speech, hearing, conversation is supposed to stop while we all stand in awe of their screeching cackles. They are scum. These are the people they voted in, the Democrats run this committee. The far left are evil, hate-filled nutcases constantly trying to silence any discussion with their screaming and emotion-driven garbage. Screamers thrown out once should be permanently banned from all hearings.

  • I'd say the only ones trying to "prevent discussion" here are the people that decided that a discussion on this country's health care would not include a single voice for single-payer health care--something the majority of Americans support--and the people who decided voicing any opinion against the interests of insurance companies, or believing that people's lives should not be a business, is a crime.

    It's time we let our government know that we are a democracy, not a corporate oligarchy.

  • Wow you are either a troll with just mayhem in mind, or you are projecting your actions onto the "left". It seems that Rush is the only one screaming hatred.

  • there a bunch of wolfs in gucci suits... they don't give a fuck about you... if they did it wouldn't be a discussion it would just be done... it's just on a piece of paper it's just another agenda same as adding a vending machine in the cafeteria

  • Look at them laughing while people are dying because THEY don't want us to have universal single payer health care. THEY want us to have to pay for the profit taking of the insurance companies, while care is denied to many of us and we suffer and die.

    Appalling at the callousness and cruelty of these vultures that feed off the working people that are suffering and dying while they bask in the knowledge they have cadillac health care.

  • Comment removed

  • No single payer advocate at the table? Not ONE?

    This is just appalling, and shows where Baucus is coming from. He should be replaced with someone that will let the single payer advocates speak.

  • im scared of that hammer. stupid bitch pigs, its all burning to hell, watch in all burn.

  • I hope this pisses the Senate off so much they will rule in the complete opposite direction - NO UNIVERSAL HEALTHCARE

  • Yeah, aren't Americans so appalling with their free speech and their expectation of a government of the people, by the people and for the people. And their goal to allow EVERYONE to the right to persue LIFE, liberty and happiness.

    So appalling. They ought to go return with you to a fuedalistic system where King is unquestioned god and everyone is the direct property of another human being and seen as entirely expendible.

  • You said it yourself - "pursue"

    We Americans need to get off our fat asses and lose this mindset of entitlement. The word "pursue" does not guarantee that you will achieve life, liberty, or happiness - but rather ensures you have the OPPORTUNITY to try and achieve them. Some will fail - life isn't fair.

  • And everyone sacrificing a few dollars every month so that no single person is too devastated by an illness, accident or misfortune is consistent with that.

    And when it comes to sacrifice for the values of this nation, it is a hell of a lot more consistent than slapping a yellow sticker on the back of your SUV, waving a toy flag made in China or taking potshots at brown people in a desert from behind 5 tons of steel.

  • This country the individuals do not owe others anything i mean anything so if your happy with helping others good But dont force your socialists ideas on others That is not freedom It's comunism and fidel castro proposes it

  • Harry & Louise talk about "Health Care Rationing," but 50 million citizens without "Health Insurance" are rationed each day. "For Profit" has no place in our healthcare system.

  • Perhaps, but they got even your attention; so much so that you felt the need to watch and comment.

  • They are a waste of time...didn't get my attention and I don't give a crap about their problems or their cause. When I protest MANY MANY will care.

  • to clerlyme2u: Your statement, "When I protest MANY MANY will care" is highly inflammatory. Another veiled threat from you. How long do you think you can make statements like this, without drawing attention to yourself? Or do you want to wind up in jail?

  • shudderbug...You are a Faggot and I hope you are first. My rifle speaks loud and CLEAR...Just as the revolution said to George III... We won't have it.

    See you in Hell Faggot !

    Protestors are useless, pitiful meaningless faggots unless they are ready to die for their cause... Have a nice day! You faggoty waste of human flesh and fresh air. I'm gonna go fuck your mom now...again.

  • to clearlyme2u: Wow, I'm sorry I lifted the rock you were crawling under. Clearly, you need much more help than your gun can provide. I hope you get it; the help, not the gun.

  • Report this man so he gets the help he needs.

  • I have plenty of help...someday you will see.

    USMC-USA-USAF

    I am much more learned than you. I am sure of it.

    Have a nice day !

  • The discussion is about healthcare, not veiled threats such as your "take a rifle with you" statement. That kind of language is totally uncalled for, and may ultimately result in your incarceration or treatment for "anger management."

  • Go cry some more bitchass! No one cares about you or your cause. No one recognizes you and further, no one will breech the 1st Amendment when faced with the reality of the 2nd Amendment.

    Good Luck--shudderbug-- inaffectual liberal jerkoff faggot .

  • to clearlyme2u: I'm glad you are creative, even when it comes to creating your own words; however, there is no such word as "inaffectual," but don't facts get in your way :)

  • haha he keeps pounding that light hammer. it sounds hollow son

  • Bauchus deserved all this and much more--check the 'issues' page on his website and try and find the 'Democratic' agenda in it. You'll look in vain.

    Important lesson here: the power to pull voices/options OFF the agenda (or here, off the policy wonk table) is a greater power than that of winning votes among considered options.

    The Sen obviously lies when he talks about 'respecting' the Single Payer position even as no voice for that sits at the experts' table.

  • Powers that "be" at play... Notice the intimidation alarms, beeps and radio pantomime... the fantastically quick "turn it into a good sound-byte" pull-off the hat by the chair and the laughter in the rhetorical repartee.

  • THIS IS THE MOST IMPORTANT PART OF THE VIDEO 2:01 let me explain why that part is soo important. because it alows us to understand the mindset of these people that are sitting on this senate finance committee. SECRETS!! that they want hidden from the public eyes/ears you can clearly hear them say damnit at 2:01 when they realize that they forgot to shut off their microphone.. and i heard their whispering to eachother on how they should change locations in order to silence the peoples voice !!!!

  • Universal Healthcare? I didn't know the universe was sick. It's another scam to move more power and freedom from individuals into the corrupt hands of government bureaucrats. Pretty soon you'll have to fill out a form every time you go to take a piss. If these assholes want Americans to live longer they'll slash the size of the government and abolish the Federal Reserve and the unconstitutional income tax. But that doesn't come in a pill so the American sheeple will never buy it.

  • so true

  • Why take care of the health of looters who aren't producing shit? Is this Canada? Are we all moronic losers? Eh?

  • Dunno...why peck out yr fool opinion when it amounts to nothing better than this?

    "Eh?"

  • Exactly.

    It's pathetic how eager these Marxist dolts are to have their DC pimps strip them of their medical decisions, all for the hollow promise of free stuff.

    Yay for Universal Happiness!

  • fucking crooks!! i dont think they have a clue as to how deep in a shitstorm they are really in!! the people have had it.. and they are rdy to rise up and yank these mother fuckers by the necks and start having us some good ol fashion hangings!! they obviously dont give a shit about our lives.. well two can play at that fucking game!! we are just suppose to look at THESE ASSHOLES!

  • That was amazing! That was democracy at work, almost.I am not sure single payer got to have a seat at that meeting.

  • Way to go Doctors! Thank you, you sure have earned my respect.

    We need more protesters!

  • Vive La Resistance~!

  • The little people must not hear about taking the for-profit insurance companies out of medicine.

    Profits trump death?

    You know the answer.

    "Our" Government!

  • Oh come on now...

    Don't profits trump death? ;)

  • Dennis Kucinich 2012.

    Ralph Nader 2012.

    David Cobb 2012.

  • Nader publicly stated he was for a single payer health care system during his 2008 run. He also said that the Bush Administration needed to be brought to task for their crimes, that our bloated military needed adjusted to deal with problems in our nation rather then abroad, and fought for campaign finance reform.

    I voted for Nader. I am not ashamed.

  • Whether or not you support a single-payer system, or whether it is feasible, to allow only representatives from the insurance industry, HMOs and pharmaceutical companies is not appropriate representation for millions of Americans. How can a solution be reached when only one side of the debate is represented? Requests for representation were consistent, and consistently denied. Where is the democracy in that?
