Harry Reid Holds Town Hall for Pro-ObamaCare Supporters ONLY

[nosugar14]

"power to the people" is completely shot down in this situation

[SupaNami]

so when a human gets in a car wreak and gets it's head and shoulder busted the EMT wont take him/she to ER cuz he can't speak or say i have HC.... ??? !!! what?... they will take him and boom fixed .... he lives .... yea he might have a bill and he might not ?!...depends on who's fault it is .... everyone has HC "Health Care" ... they're just to damn stupid to realize they have it .... and then they don't pay their bill ... and thats what drives up HC cost for people who pay ... for HC

[BlueCollarPolitico]

If Obamacare was such a great thing, why is it that not even Harry Reid is using it as a resume enhancer for re-election? Why is it that NOT one single DemocRat running for re-election is highlighting their support of Obamacare? It tells us plenty.

[damoparman]

him ... obama....pelosi....and most dems control who comes to there meetings so that when people see it in tv all they hear is cheers and no questions

next they will have one about illegal immigration and only invite illegals

[arslp]

Town hall meeting by invitation only? Yes, that's American.  I hate these elitests. This is a "Private rally". I'd bet it was funded by that public money, though. Reid, Pelosi, Feinstein, Waters, Lee, all need to go!!!!!

[Conail23]

if it was controlled, and by invitatione, then it was not a true town hall meeting at all

[PatricksTime]

is this what the left calls "grassroots"?

[jacobew2000]

Reid cant afford a video showing the real people in a real town hall, telling him to not do his liberal policies that will destroy america, and most importantly to him, his nevada citizens! He is selling our future to china in order to pay for this junk!

[coomon77]

this traitor needs to be thrown in jail for the rest of his treasonous life. take his house, his money, his cars, through his family out on the street. send him to cuba with the rest of the scum at the bay. fuck you harry you dick smoker better yet turn him into soilent green and feed him to the rest of those pricks at the capitol

[roscoe85cj]

'hope'; 'change'; 'transparency' ??/ MY BUTT !

[kzolotar]

There's always three sides to the story: your side, their side, and the truth. Something is missing here.

[roscoe85cj]

Funny how the Democrap Party elevates the biggest losers to the top positions ...

pathetic, the sheep that vote for these mutts

[arslp]

@roscoe85cj

That's kind of the principle in state government, too. My supervisor couldn't pass the specialty portion of the NTE; so she was made supervisor over the 6 of us who did, and were able to practice. Since she was never permitted to get her license, she got to supervise the 6 of us who did. :0

[john74591]

We Nevadans must get together and get Reid out. This is Reids new America, if you disagree, you have no voice. I've never been political before, but i'm motivated now after seeing this.

[edarotag84]

excommunicate harry reid

[frankiebaby725]

Look at all of these idiots. They have no idea that this healthcare bill is chock full of pork. Loser unions.

[beancube2008]

Harry screwed up big time this week. He compromised to a few and forget all our determination for the future. If he is so fond on detail jobs under the hood, he should take the leading role for our big picture. Typical paid ignorant management, he took the position but couldn't handle the job and wasted our golden opportunity. If he recognize the big picture that all of us are not moderate into this reform, he shouldn't represent us moderately. We have to re-examine our representive arrangement.

[clgander]

Attention all liberals. Pull your heads out of your asses. If you are in a union, get an education. You are being dupped by your union leaders. This is not about reform. READ THE F**KIN BILL. If you want to lower costs you do not make it harder for people to get insurance through the free market. Government regulation is what is making costs go higher. Why do you think there is not TORT REFORM in the bill.

[jensen1901]

Attention all conservatards. Get a grip and realize that you are being lied to and used by the insurance lobby. They want you to be scared. Like the easily manipulated fools that you are, you fall right in line and buy into the lies. You are voting against your own interests and the insurance fatcats are laughing at how easily they can scare you.

[clgander]

The democrats are cowards. They will not allow dissenting voices into their meetings but the republicans let all into their meetings. Who is the hipocrate? The democrats are not interested in helping the poor. They are only interested in gaining more power and control. And if you disagree than you are called a nazi. Please. That is the best you pinhead liberals can come up with. It is because you do not want debate. You would get your asses kicked if you did debate.

[gopassclowns]

Go Health Reform. Only Republitard nazis want to defeat it.

American voted for Obama to fix Healthcare and he's doing it.

Republitards why don't you go to a sarah palebrain book signing. That's the limit of your capacity anyways.

[WaitFor2012]

oh you liberals are all the same... no arguments, just name calling, calling anyone who does not agree w/ you a "Nazi". ABSURD! Your good ol friend harry, not too long ago Called Obama a "Negro" and "light skinned" who, since he does not sound Black, should win the presidency. And you call Republicans NAZI'S??? wee the racists??? Pathetic.

[ptsmmrs]

now reid thinks opposing this health care plan is the same as when people opposed civil rights,another play on the race card from the dems.

[MrKABRINK]

Reid is a fool and a liar.

[coffeefish]

How do we help get this, freak from Nevada, voted out of office?

Lets all find a way to help get him back into the private sector.

[NicosMind]

Does anyone remember back in the day when one wage could support a family?

Does anyone remember when to pay for university all someone had to do was wait tables?

What about healthcare when it cost half as much and supplied twice the service?

Isnt there a fundamentel thinking here the government seems to be forgetting?

Price = supply and demand.

ie

more money chasing a product the higher it costs.

Theres also the added fact that bureaucracy is less money effecient than capitalism

[1999vfr]

Reid knows he is gone, thats why he passing this healthcare bullshit. All you guys who cant afford healthcare, you will be able to afford the $3200.00 fine for not having it. I hope you like jail to, that's where alot of people are going. Pay or go to jail. Fot the first time in history you will be penalized for being poor (Jail Time). Yea the Democrat communist are your friends. 2010 and 2012 take back your freedoms.

[NicosMind]

Hey i dont like the democrats. I dont like the Republicans either(although there is one or two) But this healthcare package is a scam. All the various taxes are to come in straight away and then the so called benifits are to come in 2013.

But the fine starts at $95 so what would you rather do. A years insurance or $95?

It also makes it illegal for insurance companies to discriminate in how much they charge people.Which means theres no point paying insurance yil you get sick. ?v=LfGjqmG47cU

[gopassclowns]

Palin-Prejean 2013! Go. Rah, rah, rah. Funny how the the gop dropped the "moral" majority phrase and now call themselves the silent majority. Guess you can't call yourself moral and wish your neighbor a medical bankruptcy, now can ya?

Republitards.

[roscoe85cj]

typical shit from Democraps .... stage every event,, give the appearance someone actually supports their socialistic wet dream

[frio109]

The Obama Health Scare Tax Scam and Lies is not about actually helping people. It is all about Congress grabbing more power and raising taxes.

Can it be any more clear, that Congress (like Harry Reid) does not care what the real People want? He has to hire a fake crowd to cheer for him, to make a false appearance that we want their socialism.

[rockmanreturns]

And who gives a shit what harry reid says about anything . FUCK HIM.

[forwardmover]

Harry Reid has an invitation only Obamacare rally (without a Townhall type event).

Any question as to why Reid will lose next election? This was an idiotic move on his part.

[aikido7]

Hmmm.... Come to think of it, Bush NEVER limited or screened his audience at town halls.

Er--right????

[boat6868]

Reid is toast in 2010. Come on Nevada...you can do way better than this. Send a patriot to Washington!!

[jeffmagic32]

There is nothing to like about Harry Reid.

[MrScratchmarks]

I cant wait to vote against him.

[FireYourJOB]

Fire Harry Reid

[BeatGoliathTV]

Change! Change! Change!

Give me a break.

[BeatGoliathTV]

Harry is toast this election.

[airborne373]

Joseph Goebbels would be proud of Herr Reid.

[thereallurker]

Good for Harry Ried! Repugs who starts false wars and false arguments don't deserve respect!

[airborne373]

thereallurker - Ahhh yes Comrade, we must silence the opposition and cleanse the way for a brighter future.

Down with liberty, Up with Socialism.

[RSNelsen]

Liberty to die from a curable disease because you are to poor to pay or perhaps were born with a defect that precludes you from having it covered by private insurance.

Give me socialism , liberty can kill you.

[dantheleo]

Harry Reid is a COWARD!

My favorite sign held up by a town hall protester was... Vote for anyone BUTT Harry Reid!!!

[yankeegal01]

dantheleo: Gotta agree with you that Reid is a coward. His "town hall" with pro and anti was via telephone and pre-selected questions. His rally session was only with pro healthcare. You can pick your nose, you can pick your team, but you can't pick who will vote for you in 2010. Cya Reid. Say bye bye.. oh wait.. he will come back here to Nevada... uck.

[RSNelsen]

Harry Reid is no coward. He stood up to Mr. Bush and stopped him from privatizing the social security system.

Harry Reid stopped Yucca Mountain.

Harry Reid speaks with the President 2 or 3 times a day.

I wonder if the President would take baby Tark's calls?

I think the Majority Leader of the United States Senate that has been endorsed by major republicans leaders in nevada can do more good for our state than anyone else.

[whitehawktek]

But I thought Democrats wanted to debate. Remember the change and hope and "most ethical congress ever"

[ClrkGrzwld]

Rage against the Machine!

[zzx2847]

Representation indeed...

[cmmnsns4u]

what a gutless wonder, reid

[RSNelsen]

This was not a town hall event it was a rally in support of health care reform and to thank Majority Leader Reid. The poster of this video is a lier. That's all the right wing has is lies. Lies didn't work last November and they won't work this time. Lies don't work anymore that's why we have had a change of government to the left.

[yankeegal01]

RSNelson: How is the poster of this video a liar? I saw this report on the news myself, as I live in Las Vegas. The "meeting" was invite ONLY, & it was very VERY hard to find out how to attend it. Even calling Reid's office, his "operators" didn't know how to get an invite to attend (yea.. RIGHT). In the video, you hear a man say "this is a PRIVATE meeting" & in the crowd, all you see are pro-care signs. You are a typical Libby, ignoring the facts, as usual, & making up your own story.

[RSNelsen]

The poster titles the video " Harry Reid Holds Town Hall for Pro-ObamaCare Supporters ONLY". That is a lie. It was not a town hall.A town hall meeting is an informal public meeting derived from the traditional town meetings of New England. Similarly to those meetings, everybody in a community is invited to attend, voice their opinions, and hear the responses from public figures and elected officials, although attendees rarely vote on an issue.

This was a rally. This is the fact.

[hejustleft]

RSNelsen.... While your assertions of this being a rally- for supporters only- may be correct. However, your role as the typical fucking apologist for these elitist fuck-sticks is a fact.

[RSNelsen]

Hejustleft... Very eloquently stated. I'm sure arguments like yours will help turn the tide of public opinion and change the hearts of men everywhere.

[hejustleft]

RSNelsen.... Your sarcasm aside, I'm not burdened with political correctness dictating my life or opinions. You need only look up the Socialist/Marxist creatures creatures that have populated Obama's cabinet and his cabal of Czars. We have a Capitalist system and a Constitution- with all its flaws- that has made us the most PRODUCTIVE and giving people that the world has ever known. Along comes a an apologist hack from the bowels of Chicago politics to "correct" its defects. Good luck.

[RSNelsen]

Sean ,,,, is that you Sean? Or is it just Hannity's talking points regurgitated?

Jesus Christ was a community organizer and a socialists at that.

I'll take Christ and his teachings and you can have Fox Noise.

and oh BTW don't think capitalism is in the constitution.

I'm a small business owner and a capitalist looking forward to healthcare and health insurance reform.

I just got my renewal form from UHC in the mail asking for a 28.5% increase for my companies health insurance premiums.

[hejustleft]

RSNelsen.... at least you spared us the "faux" news cliche. Admit it, you, as a small business owner (I'll take you at your word) are looking for a break from the obscenities of health care costs. Surely the answer isn't from a hack who referred to our Constitution as a series of "negatives" as to what the Federal government can do? You, as a small business owner- and likely struggling- are the driving force behind our system. I give you credit for it. Do not be fooled by this 3rd world hack.

[RSNelsen]

3rd world hack? Our President graduated from Columbia University and Harvard Law School and served as a professor of constitutional law at the University of Chicago Law School.

Sean Hannity dropped out of New York University and Adelphi University.

Once again I'll take my guy over FOX's star commentators.

And yes I'm looking to my duly elected government to help solve a huge problem. The waiting for United Health Care to do the right thing hasn't been working for me over the last 16 years.

[jinha911]

If this health care passes through, and all the "lies" that you think were false do come true. You will be the biggest traitor to this country. Remember "IT". Free loader.

[RSNelsen]

jinha911.... I'll check back with you after we pass a bill on healthcare. As for calling me a "free loader" I and my small business provide health insurance such as it is to 6 families, I pay income taxes when a turn a profit, I match the FICA taxes that my employees pay, I pay unemployment taxes on the wages, I pay workman's comp insurance premiums for my employees, I pay property taxes on commercial and residential property and I just received notice that UHC is raising premiums 28.5%.

[hejustleft]

Signed by Sean.

Is it pronounced "seen"?

[yankeegal01]

RSNelson: You are correct. The "town hall" was on 08/28 and this "rally" was on 08/31. I will admit this was a mistake in dates however, it is not a lie. Lying implies intent to deceive, this is nothing more than a misunderstanding via the media.  As for Reid's town hall meeting on 08/28, it was NOT a town hall meeting. It was done via telephones, where you had to RSVP if you could get an invite, with selected questions. Hows that for the truth?

[RSNelsen]

Lie ; to create a false or misleading impression

I believe that was the posters intent.

[Hellpig]

we will deal with dingy Harry Reid soon enough........after 2010 we will investigate his treasonous ass.......get fitted for an ass plug asshole

[georgie1]

SO Harry not only looks like a chicken..he actually is one...a wrinkled up commie fowl who will be out of a job next year....put out to pasture with the rest of the critters @Animal Farm.

Kill this horrific bill!

[MRuggerBens]

Four legs goood...two legs baaaad.

- Animal Farm

There are so many parallels to orwell's writings and what is happening in our country. This was supposed to happen in England, not here in the US.

[Maxwedge12000]

A rally filled with lemmings that always have their paws out looking for free shit.

[mooneyn1]

Poop on the ground has more value than Harry Reid.

[MomentsAfter]

of course harry reid would hold a meeting for supporters only. That's the kind of slimeball he is
