Obama: Statistics Show Need for Health Overhaul

[Madams1977]

I've come to the conclusion that Obama is either 1) As good and wonderful as he puts himself out to be and maybe he can do something for this country or 2) He's every bit as underhanded as people say he is and we're all in for some serious trouble in the near future. It's hard for me to trust someone in their first term since they have to worry about getting re-elected. We'll see who is truly is during his second term (assuming he has one).

[Madams1977]

Could someone tell me what the hell this video has to do with "The Devil Went Down to Georgia" from The Muppet Show?

I wish I could meet every person that not only disrespects the president, but also calls him a socialist/communist and boot them out of the country.

There's a line that can be crossed when criticizing the person that tries to help our country.

If you don't like him, fine, if you don't like his ideas, fine, but respect him is what I'm saying. Saying he's "stupid", just proves how much of an idiot you are for insulting someone who is most likely 10x more intelligent than you.

[Madams1977]

@DayzdProductions In all fairness though people who were opposed to Bush used the word "stupid" more than their fair share of times. I would tell them the same thing you've just said. For people to dismiss any of these people as just "stupid" is arrogant and dangerous. And you're right, these people being labeled as stupid are far more intelligent than the average person. :-)

Do away with all health Insurance, on the basis that it is an illegal gambling service to solve all of these problems, return to a free market run private service industry in health care, there is your necessary reform, nothing else will suffice in solving the problem. For those that need health care and cannot afford it (care will become much more affordable if my advice is taken) allow for a limited amount of social support formed within communities voted for and by the people of it.

[lallapaloossa]

Statistics now show 52% of Americans do not want your stupid, government-run healthcare Obama! How about those stats??? You FRAUD!!!

[friendly1013]

Probably becase 52% of Americans don't even bother paying attention to any kind of details or facts. Face it, dumb people don't like numbers!

[lallapaloossa]

friendly, that's it...look down upon the masses...you hypocritical socialist....Americans know that capitalism is the way out.....socialism is the way to certain death....

[MrTabby5000]

I dont want it,I dont want his communist care.

[05CTCB]

Step away from the TV & step into the streets!!! I did. I'm in D.C. now & will walk in the 9-12 march tomorrow!! I drove 1,548 miles to fight big govt.

I read the book (booksbyoliver. com) & it inspired me to tell others that we must 'stand' against tyranny.

It starts with you!!

Power is held by the People, not the government.........(booksbyoli­ver. com)

[grabac9]

Anything put out by the AP is pure government propaganda. The media is left wing liberal and everyone knows it...

[JawsJaws]

Anything run by the government sucks. Government need to quit putting its nose in where it doesnt belong. Fuck Obama

[Garri777]

only those justly deserving of God's love will recieve it. Truth is truth. Because God is not a unjust God. Good lucky in your journey. You need it more then most.

[Garri777]

this comment is in response to not the comment but the very person named JewsWreckNations . So do you still believe in Santa Claus? Do you look for the Easter Bunny? This is your faith? Your life is a lie, because you lie, & you are a liar. God is the truth, love, and eternal. Kneel before God, lest he smite you, for your forked tongue.

[MexicanPride555]

ap sucks

[Dusanboy]

[GreatSatan1]

Dusanboy

According to your profile you are only 42. Where did you live under nazi-ism?

[lallapaloossa]

go back and live under communism...we don't want you here

[klbflorida]

re: refuse to help out fellow americans because of hate and greed... what planet did you come from? No one let me say it again NO ONE had ever helped our family in this country. We are all hard working people that have to fight to keep what we make before we are taxed out of existence. I dont expect anyone to help me out. Why should I sit on the couch all day and expect others to work for me? Someone show me my "Fellow Americans" that want to help me? Where does that line start.

[Gendral]

Democratie is not enouffghtffght

Civisilation americaine en decripititude

[zzx2847]

Yes HE can. 0.o

[simplylovelyful]

People are idiotic if they can't see why the Obama is pushing for this kind of Health Plan & his genuine concern for the America people, plain & simple! Obama has gotta more done in one day then the previous administrations has done in their entire 8 terms in office. So many lazy, selfish, spoiled Americans rather remain oblivious from how many of the nation are suffering or refuse to help out their fellow Americans because of hate & greed. So glad Obama didn't allow himself to be the target!

[panthersno15]

The only problem with this bill is that we cannot afford it. these "lazy and selfish" Americans who are concerned for their country have read the bill, unlike you, because if you did, you too would have seen the price tag for it. The CONGRESSIONAL BUDGET OFFICE has said it will raise the already trillion and a half deficit spending another trillion, 2 and a half trillion the gov doesn't have, were digging a deeper hole, where will this extra trillion come from? maybe more taxes??

[mbernal41]

hahahaha do you really beleive that?? the problem is people like you is that is so gulible that you beleive anything you hear. do research for yourself quit being a dumbed down american

[Nightrunner529]

He forgot to mention that approx 12 million w/o healthcare are ILLEGAL aliens and another 10 million would rather drive a big car and have a Big Screen TV then pay for health care. Why should tax payers pay the bill for deadbeats?

[tampabayproductions]

Google "Acorn Prostitution". Demand that the State funded media cover this! Demand an investigation into ACORN from your Congressman! Gang of THUGZ

[exweez]

"in my plan" what is your plan? HR3200 thats over . let us see your "plan".the congress won't read the bills but we will. this experiment is over! you have (with your CBS,NBC,and ABC allies)have killed the party. REGISTERED DEMOCRAT

[tylee77]

The new data is that people are starting to see right threw your bullshit lies even faster than Bush that also goes for your mindless drone followers

[superbill2]

1:34 last night would have been a great time to address some of those issues. Instead all we heard was ,,,,,FALSE!

15+million illegals is a real concern. Instead of replying FALSE how about we explain where in "your" bill it excludes illegal aliens, or protects american taxpayers who have to flip the bill.

The speech last night could have been made by any American. It was full of emotion but lacked any substance.

[tobiasrobbins72]

It was as if he doesn't even know what's in the bill just that the Dems support it so he's telling them to vote it through regardless of waht their constituents think.

[VictoryCough]

Let's not change the definition of insurance. That whole address to the joint session was bullshit. First, using preventive care does not save money, there are people who would go their whole life without a preventive care/screenings and never get sick. This makes this very expensive. MRI's are a good/service, no different from groceries or lasik or a computer. Nothing is ever free. How can he preach competition but then be against selling policies across state lines?

[Squiffel]

Yay, The government offering Socialism and forced enrollment into money funneling programs as a cure!! What else is new?

[ClarkKasheta]

When people have legitimate concerns, is this called "bickering"?

[rogf]

fake

[Ken2234]

"Time for bickering" , what does he mean by that? Is he saying checks and balances and debate is over? What an idiot! I hate this fucking clown.

[lallapaloossa]

Ken2234, most of America is now becoming alarmed by this arse-clown...we knew he wasn't qualified for the position...affirmative action...the libs felt good....now we all suffer....

[ladylordess]

HR 3400 is the best way to go for the entire country.

[friendly1013]

I agree, people are dying, something needs to be done.

[jcupsmells]

people need to die... its natural, this world is overcrowding. the strong survive.

[friendly1013]

okay, you first! and your loved ones second, thanks for volunteering, you are right.

[jcupsmells]

if i die than ill go to a better place, same goes with my family. there are too many fucked up sick people in this country that medically should be dead, we waist soo much money keeping them alive to live a painful non productive life.

[MrTabby5000]

we need to exterminate grandma and grandpa,aids patients,all gays and lets add all the jews too.hey adolph your sick.

[pozzerbob]

What about the Police state statistics, or how america has 25% of the world prisoners?

[TristateTripper]

One issue at a time, buddy. America can take only so much reform at once before heads start exploding.

[Nightrunner529]

Most are black and hispanic. Talk to them about why they chose violent crime over decent civilized conduct.

[DiziCone]

well why don't you ask the healthcare overlords employed by saddam hussein's second ex uncle on why he forced illegals across the boarder to perform vile deeds such as some how showing up in polls exclusive to those with citizenships, raping grandmothers, plaguing livestock and committing witchcraft? Google obama-hitler relationships THE TRUTH MUST BE REVEALED!!!

[monroencnb]

love this!!!

[humaner]

Your a good guy Obama .Help the people and forget the hating Republican goons.

[TylerNull]

If people are losing jobs as fast as Obama's "statistics" claim, then it proves his last bill -- the so-called stimulus bill -- was a failure.

Then, too, Obama claimed an urgency, so Americans were duped into signing his lawless 300% increase in spending rate, on his schedule, before anyone has a chance to read it.

Now Obama shamelessly points to his last set of lies to market a new wad of them for yet another lawless federal expansion.

ABORT Obama-Care -- it's INVIABLE
