I Believe This Was A Video Clip Of ABC News' Good Morning America's Report On Altmire Interviewed On Health Care Reform On Thursday Morning, March 18, 2010.
Typical story of a Republican at heart who ran as a democrat in historically Democratic /Union Strong SW Pennsylvania. He used the unions and the democrats to get elected over Melissa Hart and then stabbed us in teh back. "Did the Right Thing" make sure poor people have no health care so that your wealthy constituents don't have to see them in the waiting room.
@dirties: get your head off your butt and smell the roses! You know so much about socialism and Canadian, British, Australian and French health care systems by watching Fox news!
Yes we did! Yes we did! Yes we did! .... Yes we did! Now, I am fired up, ready to kick plenty of republicans' asses! I can't wait for the elections in November! You are so confident, as John McInsane said, that you will take back Congress and repeal this health insurance reform law! That's what I can't wait to see!
Yes, Jason voted no...Good for him..I guess I would too to save my job...I will not pay for abortion, yes folks that is one of the provisions in this bill...Also, you will be fined if you don't participate in this gov. issued health plan...in a tune of 2.5% of your income or 500 $ or go to jail..Yeah ok, this is wonderful...Hussein Obama is a SOCIALIST, and he will do whatever he can to bring down this economy to promote his agenda...Bloviated political ASSES...Revolt is coming, for sure!
Seriously, Jason, just because someone hires a plane to fly overhead? Or who screams louder in your parking lot (perhaps they have time for it because they are retired with BENEFITS).
Spineless and embaressing. Way to be nothing.
And have we gotten a real answer from the Republicans about why not one member voted to provide healthcare to their fellow Americans? Or the Tea Baggers who parked themselves in Altmire's lot and screamed.
@alleghenybob Hey numb nuts, get educated and realize this isn't about health care, it's about power, socialism...and how the cadilac play for unions is not going to be penalized...ha ha moran
@brookecornish, You are a republican! I believe that even if you were Altmire's constituent, you or any other teabagger would vote for him in November! Altmire is sold out to the health insurance "industry"! He was foolish by voting "no" on this bill: He is done! He should start looking for a job with a health insurance provider!
You are a fool to call his stupid attitude "open minded"! Conservatives are closed minded! Altmire would probably have vote "no" to the Civil Rights Act!
@Jpkrao sorry bro, you have as much knowledge about this issue as you do being educated as a doctor..This bill isn't about health care, it's about socialism...just ask Canadians, British, Australians about this issue...When you come crying after these bloviated politicians take from your investments to pay for Medicare, and when your fined or put in jail because you refuse to pay for the gov..health care, you will love the tea partys support...whats next, Taking my gun rights away,,,
CNN reports that Altmire is a "FIRM NO" vote. I call on all democrats to demand a primary challenger for mr.Altmire starting on Monday March 22nd. Everybody knows that Mr. Altmire will vote no to try and save his job. I do not care that Nancy Pelosi told him he could vote no since she has the 216 already. I say so what, give him a primary challenger!
As a PA Resident Jason Altmire is not only a disgrace to his party but a disgrace to Western PA. His district is one of the most working class in the nation. He is a Democrat in name only. He will surely be voted out in the next election and never hold public office again.. Someone has him in their pocket and its not the people of SW PA

Congressman Altmire, I hope by now you have decided YES. We should not be the only industrialized democracy in the world that does not see health care as a right for its citizens. It's not a perfect bill. It's a good start. We can't wait 50 more years for it to be perfect. Please vote for it, now, and continue working to make it better, as we all will.
thank You Congressman Altmire you have my respect for your stand against this bill. As an Republican but, more importantly as an American I thank you and will support you
good guy he said. "But I was not sent to Congress to take the easy way out or to vote the way they want me to vote in Washington. I was elected to represent my district and give western Pennsylvania a voice in Congress.
REPUBLICAN DOESNT WANT ANY REFORM, Bush had both houses, and they could have reformed it the way Republican wanted. On October 26th 2002, as a direct consequence of Senator Paul Wellstone's death, Bush has control of both Houses of Congress.
LOL, There is no Single Payer and no Socialism. There is only Exchange Option in the Bill, the idea proposed by Republican and adopted by Obama. All the Insurance within Exchange Option are PRIVATE. Just like your favorite Senator and Congressmen get.
Why would Doctors support a Bill that taxes them, > $200,000? They have seen enough abuse by the Insurance Companies against their patients: deny treatments, changing drug formulary, drop coverage, preexisting condition exclusion, & Medicare drug GAP for Senior. Dont ever get sick or in an accident, you will be bankrupted & screwed by Insurance.
MIDDLE CLASS AMERICAN HAVE INSURANCE, but outrageous premium, deny surgical, drug treatment based on arbitrary profit driven criteria is IMMORAL. Tumor 0.1 inch over limits no treatment for you. MIDDLE CLASS AMERICANS are still one accident, one serious illness, or one chronic disease away from declaring Bankruptcy. Only if you are lucky enough to receive treatments & live long enough to file one. System is broken and failed MIDDLE CLASS that is why there is an outcry for reform.
6) No one can fully absorb what's in the Bill within a few days of it being available to the public. I'm still VERY disturbed by how the House Healthcare Legislation vote was rushed by House Speaker Pelosi a few months ago. It was an insult to the American people, as the vote on a Saturday Night spoke volumes to concerned American citizens.
Rep. Altmire: As an United States Citizen, I'm very concerned about the Healthcare Bill in the House of Representatives that could be voted on as early as Sunday. . PLEASE vote NO! America's future is at stake!
1)Reconciliation Process wasn't intended for anything remotely involving 1/6 of the U.S. economy.
2) A " YES" vote would lead to many Doctors leaving the medical profession.
the bill is voted on already! The fixes are done by the Reconciliation Process
people should have an IQ test before they can mess up peoples life and any one that has a made bed / insurance should stop being so selfish ! and stop the misinformation !!! Read up . learn and then speak! Americas future is in the can it is in because of the plundering of the middle class and already brooke people!!
great clip keep it up =)

Just like a typical moon bat. Opposing voice?
Nonsense, only you're right. Nobody else has a righ to an opinion. Get rid of him.
You see why we're so concerned with your type running what used to be America?

This Bill vs Current System, why would you pick the current system?
noformstyle 2 years ago
AMA and ANA (DOCTORS & NURSES) support the Bill.
4Profit Insurance companies are against the Bill.
Why would Doctors support a Bill that taxes them, > $200,000? They have seen enough abuse by the Insurance Companies against their patients: deny treatments, changing drug formulary, drop coverage, preexisting condition exclusion, & Medicare drug GAP for Senior. Dont ever get sick or in an accident, you will be bankrupted & screwed by Insurance.
I will go with AMA on Health Care Reform.

5) The long term financial cost will be VERY high. Actual long term costs have a history of being noticeably higher than estimated costs.

3) Many people with the potential to be high quality " Doctors" won't enter the medical profession if this Bill becomes Law.
4) Rationed Care is inevitable if this Bill becomes Law.
