  • obama is a moron

  • My aunt is dying of cancer too Obama and you wont care for her untill 2014 !

    Just like Canada and the UK she will be dead before she gets care. What about the millions who die each year from lack of care ???

    So you all of a sudden don't care about the milliions who DIE each year ?

  • I you were so rushed then why do I still not have care ???

    You passed the bill months ago now and I still don't have care. When I called my representatives office, I was told they did not have any idea when this would kick in. The Woman on the phone told me she thinks it's not untill 2014 !

    So you had to do this now, yet I wont recieve any care for my cancer untill 2014 !

  • If you dont like his plan then you automaticaly want the status quo. Thats bull. I am a conservative and I am for healthcare reform but lets do it right. Why cant I buy across state lines? Why are me fees higher because bogus lawsuits? Why isnt everyone going to be covered? These are legitimate questions but you cant get a democrat to answer them. If this bill was the right thing to do and so good then why do we have to bribe congressmen to vote for it? Being honest and asking ???'s is American.

  • coverage won't start right away anyways.... so that girl "girl with leukemia" won't get help...

  • Sack of lying shit

  • The Federal Government running Health Care is like a Fat Man running a Candy Store. They both have a habit of eating the profits.

  • Thetruedavid. What is good with this health care plan?

    1. Force people into a health care plan?

    2. Higher income taxes?

    3. Rationed care?

    4. Substandard care?

    I spent 10 years in the military. I had "free" medical care. I have horror stories from my experience. Also, have you ever attempted to use Federal Workers Comp? It is worse than state workers comp, you can't find a doctor that accepts it.

    Question, what government program does the federal gov. run well?

  • It is about time everyone in America has healthcare!

    President Obama must be praised for implementing it.

  • Except that everyone WON'T have healthcare with his plan. It still leaves a good chunk of people uncovered. so, now they have to pay a fine because they are not qualified for Obama's healthcare, and can't afford anyone else's. and those fines are what will help fund the healthcare for those that are qualified. REally Smart. In case you don't realize, I am being sarcastic.

  • Obama took six months to find a dog for his kids but he wants to push a ill-considered "reform" measure in six weeks. He is pushing for it to happen before people realize what is in it. I have read some of the 1,000 pages of HR 3200 and it is a horrible bill, completely unconstitutional.

  • "...in a country like ours, that's not right."

    What's not right? That people get sick?

    And since when is this a country that looks to the federal government to take care of it? Unfortunately, young people today are thinking that way. Many young Americans believe the federal governments' job is to take care of them. *News Flash* The gov't's job is NOT to take care of you.

    I want less government, smaller government. I want my rights and my freedom.

    Don't Tread On Me

  • barry looks a little weweed up himself...he's always up for a good lie though

    thousands of "angry mobs" are rallying at townhall meetings to say "hell no" to his "reform" and his response is i gotta "i get letters"

  • bull crap!!!!

  • help the people in the letter then dumbass, leave the rest of us out of it....

    He's rushed because he knows he can't see himself getting anything done once the liberal democrats are kicked out next year in the elections....so get as much as you can now asswipe...

    ONce we get a majority against obama again then we could even approach impeachment if done properly...

  • Yes you're definitely right about that. It's part of our CONSTITUTION when our gov't gets to oppressive or destructive we have the right to abolish it. I just hope for the people that voted this administration in office will be happy for the CHANGE they're going to get. That cash for clunker what a joke!Alot of people will be upset if they participitated in this program when it comes tax time I heard on news that will be taxable income.That's what I call a deception that ought to wake people up.

  • Looks pretty unanimous to me...

    Obama's toast....

    Register for the 2010 elections and vote anything but Democrat... I don't care if your school principal gets elected senator... Surely they would be better than what we've got now.

  • vote the entire corrupt congress out keep it up until we force term limits with our vote. as for Obama and his rushing into everything, kiss my arse you lying sack o crap. you go on this health care along with congress be our test dummies

  • The Obamessiah is always good for a laugh, if you think that listening to an uber bullsh*t artist and accomplished liar is entertaining.....but I digress.

    There once was a man named O'Doole.

    Who had red spots on his tool.

    His doctor, a cynic,

    Said get out of my clinic,

    And wipe off that lipstick, you fool !

  • Lying POS wimp azz Kenyan. What the Demoncrats are doing now, and what they have been doing all along, comes right out of the Communist handbook. The Demoncraps are finished right after this jitterbugs term is up. (Liberals/Democrats = End of America)

  • The commies never want you to think about what they are selling you.

  • and quit lieing about people who have written you,the only letters and email your getting is about you and your socialist agenda.your out of control waste of taxpayer money and hate mail,asswipe

  • we are not unhappy we are sick and tired of this out of control spending and lies and we have heard nothing but lies coming from your mouth.healthcare will be rationed because thats the only way you can pay for this massive overhaul,our current insurance will be gone because employers will dump employees into govt care because of cost,so quit with your lies.the people that are showing up at these town halls are not right wing like you and cronies have lied about they are concerned Americans

  • Today you go to the doctor, if you're diagnosed with a serious illness you discuss treatment with your doctor and you decide how to move forward. Under the Obama plan you stand in front of a Board that will tell YOU how to be treated. On this board will be bureaucrats like a labor union rep (SEIU thug) why would you want to give your life away? You are still free! Snap out of it.

  • you couldnt even have govt run the stimulus without turning it into a loss. and your minions dont even know where some of the trillion dollars went,cash for clunckers it stimulated the economy alright Japans 60% of the new care sales were foriegn and you now want to run my life and decide when and if I am elligable for care,no thanks I wouldnt trust anyone in washington to run a McDonalds,govt has destroyed social security,welfare,housing,medic­aid,medicare i sure want losers in charge of me

  • He likes to rush bill through before people have a chance to find out what this Marxist is up to and the fact that he could lose the Dem majority in 2010 to ram through his radical agenda.

  • you want the truth? you can't handle the truth!! move on.....

  • United Health CEO, Stephen Hemsley, makes $3.2 million/yr. MORE than $100,000/hr. This is NOT about an Entrepreneur who came up with a brilliant, productive idea! Just a Corporate Mafia Boss that buys politicians (esp. RethugliKKKans) and brainwashes people to defend their THEFT, calling it Capitalism! False! NOT Capitalism! This is THEFT! The Entrepreneur I mentioned, is a deserving capitalist. I am ALL for Bill Gates! These CEOs are MURDEROUS BANDITS who DENIED us CARE, sending many to death!

  • "sending many to death"

    Oh, just wait buckaroo - if this president gets his way it'll be national policy.

  • To clarify a HUGE Misunderstanding in the US:

    YOU have CONTROL over Govt!

    You DON'T have control over CORPORATIONS.

    If you don't like a Govt, you can vote to change it.

    But, without Govt's HELP, you can do NOTHING against getting RIPPED OFF by Corporate Mafias, like the Health Insurance Co.s.

    For example:

    - Discrimination of people with Pre existing Conditions.

    - Selecting ONLY the healthiest people to insure. - Dropping YOU when you fall sick (Cancer, Accidents, Need a transplant etc)

  • Right now, Health Insurance Co.s (HIC) executives are STANDING between you and your doctor,

    denying you treatment, cherry picking only the healthiest people to insure and yet denying them care when they fall sick. HIC execs are telling your doctor which pill to prescribe.

  • Private Health Insurance Co.s (HIC) and their Rethugliban puppets are doing everything to maintain their POWER over the American People. HIC want to continue SCAMMING us out of our money and DENYING us CARE! Standing BETWEEN YOU and YOUR Doctor, they deny the doctor's prescription if it is expensive, making sure you get the CHEAPEST pill, NOT the MOST EFFECTIVE! HIC executives have ONLY ONE concern: Pay minimum, maximize profit, get HUGE BONUSES!

    They DON'T CARE whether we DIE as a result.

  • read the bill and then spread your propaganda asswipe

  • your rushed because you know that after 2010 you are going to lose your libs and wont be able to pass shit because we are voting out the entire congress, your pelosi,boxer,frank,reid,feinst­ein,and all of them no matter what party they claim to belong to we have one party in this naiton and its called the elites and they only care about their getting ahead and we are taking our country back in 2010,and your gone in 2012, say no to socialism.

  • ajack=LIER

  • you get letters alright and I am sure they dont say they love you and need your help,you are going to destroy the best healthcare system in the world,go back to your home in kenya and spread your socilist agenda there,you are a hero there and a failure here, vote all of these idiots out in 2010,both parties need to go, take our nation back now

  • fuck you mr socialist,we dont want your fucked up odumbasscare

  • I'm sure it has nothing to do with next years elections nope not at all. If he or other members of congress gave a fat crap they would not rush it so that they could get the best possible plan out for everyone involved since everyone is involved.

  • If the Dems were interested in competition, they would eliminate the banning of buying health insurance across state lines.

    Your argument is disingenuous. The Fed does not have the same obligations as a private business. They don't have to worry about profit or going out of business, therefore, they have an unfair advantage when competing against private organizations that do.

  • "Obama to citizens : Send in all fishy E-Mails"

    it's official! welcome to 1984-the reich minister of O-speak

    (rahmmuel-"the new dick cheney")will contact you shortly

    pack your bags for your trip to "Memory Hole"

  • SHIT how much money can this asshole blow!?

  • this whiner odumba blames everything that happens on Bush.I have never in my life heard the president of the United States complain about all the hardships that the previous administration left the poor obamaman such a large mess,he is no better than the people that run to government to take care of them because their not capable of taking care of themselves, poor obama I guess grandma can't take care of you anymore wahwahwah. you are a lefty alright thats all they do!!!!!!!

  • odumba really thinks Americans are stupid and that he can lie enough times to make people believe that we will be able to keep our current plans and doc, he is a liar because all employers are going to drop you into odumba care because they will save money. this plan will make the new healthcare CZAR ziek emanual in charge of our lives, and who is to say that if your not one of them,your not getting care. if the liar likes his plan so much then lets take their gold plan and put them on it

  • An honest question to the Obama cheerleading squad. What happened to the 5 days we were promised to read these bills?

  • things have "changed"-watch this:

    "Shocking Hypocrisy Audio Found Obama didn't like it when Bush Rushed Through Legislation"

    radio interview with Randi Rhodes in 2004.

    now barry demands laws are passed without reading the bill. the pens need to be removed from the corrupt bastards' hands in congress before they continue signing our countrys' death warrant

  • so, you are rushed because you read letters, but do not have time to read the bill. can we look at it before the prostiticians are forced to vote on it without reading it either?

  • I've gotta tell landstowns the same thing I tell other dems. "order hooked-on-phonics, then buy a history book".

  • Landstown, you would follow satan blindly into hell if the hipocrats told you to. If there aren't any smart republicans,then why are we the ones that know our history; and that his policies are all tried and proven to fail. His polcies are the same as those of Hitler. I understand your ignorance though. there's a reason the democrats symbol is a jackass.

  • Unfortunately, the people that learn from history are doomed to sit in the minority watching history be repeated by idiots.

  • Comment removed

  • "I happen to be a proponent of a single payer universal health care program. ... And thats what Jim is talking about when he says everybody in, nobody out. A single payer health care plan, a universal health care plan. And thats what Id like to see. ... But I don't think we're going to be able to eliminate employer coverage immediately. There's going to be, potentially, some transition process."

    -- Barack Obama, to the Illinois AFL-CIO, June 30, 2003

  • So what.s up any of you lazy muthafuckas need me to pay your mortgage, electric, or gas bill. How about your car payment or buy your groceries. I've worked hard my entire life to get out of poverty and welfare. It's not fiar to expect you to do the same. So anyone want a handout. I understand your not smart and can't support yourselves

  • Pres. Obama is a racist

  • you lazy mooching commies have destroyed a great country in 6 months. If we can rig an election like acorn. we can fix what Pres. Husein Osama. has done.

  • Thank God we finally have a president with integrity and intelligence. After 8 years of dumb and dummer, we will finally be able to put america back together again. That is if the right wing isn't successful in paying off too many to retreat from caring about this nation.

  • It's Ok though cause 2010 will bring real "change".

  • Unfortunately there isn't one person in Republican leadership with a brain or integrity. What ever happened to people like Eisenhower? They now produce idios tlile Palin who makes wood look smart by comparison

  • Eisenhower-the guy who warned us about

    "the military industrial complex?"

  • A lot of doctors are fed up with the insurance companies. Doctors don't like the long forms and wait times by the insurance companies. Also, insurance companies are paid 100 million a year in government subsidies, and that has nothing to do with taking care of you.

  • odumba has admitted he hasn't read the bill and neither has congress,he wants to rush this bill through because he knows his congress and house reps are getting voted out in 2010 and he won't be able to lie and promote shit.why should we pay to cover 15-20 million illigal alliens,destroy small business,and jobs,he already wasted 700 billion and more in stimulus and has not saved any jobs nor created any he is a liar,go back to kenya you socialist

  • odumba is a socialist and is a liar,he hasn't done anything to save or create jobs and wants to waste more money on this crappy healthcare plan costing trillions and covering 15-20 million illigal aliens another thing he has lied about.Federal employees get to keep their golden healthcare along with the unions. odumba wants control over your life and who lives and who dies, take our current plans and destroy them,we will also lose jobs in a recession,screw odumba

  • odumba want to control your life,his CBO has said this plan will not save money,it will cost trillions it also includes covering 15-20 million illigal aliens,we will not be able to keep our plans,the elderly will be the losers screw odumba

  • Comment removed

  • Keep your crazy health care laws off of my body. I don't want them and here in the US I have the RIGHT not to have to buy ANY health care if I CHOOSE! Obama is a Marxist and is trying his damnedest to make the US another failed socio-dictatorship state.

  • He is such a liar! My blood pressure really rises every time I hear him. So because "supposedley" some person sent him a letter he's rushing this program through even though it doesnt make financial sense to our economy? He'll bankrupt this country cuz some lady sent him a letter?

  • at what point does this yard ape/porch monkey quit lying. why is the american public forced to watch this half breed spew his crap every night. every fucking day this loser spews his crap to the left wing state media. and they just dish it up.

    how's about we just get 1 week where we don't even have to listen to the stupid nigger's voice. is that so hard.

  • I choose between right and wrong not black or white, democrat or republican and the things that are being allowed and brought forth in this nation are ludacris, most people that don't have healthcare have chosen that route and who wants to think about having to see the doctor anyway and then to be fined 1000 dollars if you don't have coverage...what a crock of u know what...please wake up and see where we are headed.

  • The government is already involved in healthcare enough with Medicaid. What about those people that have worked and paid money into Medicare, where is that money going to go if there is a national healthcare plan. Our children and grandchildren and so on will be paying all of this borrowed money back in slavery to the Asian countries if we don't wake up. The government is bringing the US down to nought and when no one has respect for you they treat you like dung. I am an Independent .

  • hey freefal, your comment translates to "I'm helpless and can't take care of myself give me some of your money and pay for my healthcare" I lost my job in march, but I'm not begging anyone for help. I don't need to I'm a evil greedy capitalist. I'm also moving my money over seas so I don't have to support my family and yours.

  • no my comment translates to english and not what you think you know. now think of it this way if u were poor and you had to pay a few thousand for treatment but you couldn't and you will die if u can't get it. what are u going to do die? thats an option better health care is needed its obvious anyone who doesn't want it is afraid that their precious money is being taken away from them. but if ur sick it helps a whole lot to be paying a lot less

  • I can explain the rush on health care. "hurry up and pass it, before people realize we're screwing them"

  • Why should I or anyone else pay for your health care? People need to wake up and take care of themselves. I am tired of people saying "help me, I am poor I need someone to take care of me because I don't want to work. I don't want to put in the effort to get an education or even a trade. No one owes you a thing! Grow up get a life and take care of yourself. I SHOULDN'T HAVE TO TAKE CARE OF YOUR HEALTH CARE.  Take care of the kids..to hell with the lazy parents, let them starve.

  • ok just wait till the recession hits u then u'll be one of them. saying help me and u'll need someone to take care of u. also a lot of people lost hey're jobs and most buisnesses aren't hiring. but thik of it the improved health care helps every one someone will help pay for your health care through the government .the money u already spend will help u more.

  • Obama and members of congress won't go on the same medical plan they propose as it is intended only for us peons. They have their own elite health care plan and aren't about to get rid of it. Double standard. I want the health care plan they have!

  • I smell a rat! The most recent video about Obama health care was three days ago? I don't think so. I think there may be some suppression of the facts going on here.

    I heard a reporter asked Obama if he would volunteer to go on the same health care plan he proposes for you and me and refused to answer the question. Can anybody confirm this?

  • Look at the video on YouTube. He did not commit to putting himself, his family and Congress on this healthplan. He dodged the question like he always does. Without a rehearsed teleprompter response, this idiot fumbiles worse than Bush on a good day.

  • It's amazing that so many idiots can congregate on one site. Obama must be doing the right thing, the idiots are terrified and the best they can do is resort to name calling.

  • rush to communism.what a part negro piece of marxist lying dogcrap.

  • Yes yes Obama, Americans are DIEING on the streets everywhere in America cause we can't afford healthcare...

  • It was a good speech made by a good man with good intentions.

  • "The road to hell is paved with good intentions." -- Samuel Johnson, 1775

  • I think improving the health care is a good idea although its not the best time for it. but what if it gets worse? this is a recession people are losing money its harder to pay for health care so now is also a good time.

  • freefall132:

    The better question is this:

    With $1.6 Trillion dollars, the CBO estimates that 36 million people will still be uninsured under Obama's plan

    If the health care industry collapse, how in would we afford to cover 308 million people?  Answer: We can't

  • look would you rather have better health care? you would be stupid not to want it. like i said now might not be the best time but if you want to wait till it gets worse be my guest. i'd rather have the better health care.

  • people who get angry on youtube walls and have petty little arguments compromises ALL of our intellects. just throwin' it out there.

  • Wow,,Thats our president???We r in trouble...12/21/2012 is not going to be good...

  • You are rushing this so you can pass it before anyone, including all the people vote for it, know what is even in the bill. If these dumbshit politicians would even read these bills they are passing, we would be in better shape. The forget that WE THE PEOPLE sent them there! All they do is fuck everything up once they get to DC.

  • Yawn to Everyone Else !

    I Love President Obama !!!!

  • i can't get mad at all whites because i notice everybody that like obama don't even waste time to comment but everyone who hates obama always got to put there 2cents in and just happy to find something against him

    REAL TALK

  • That was supposed to be "if you knew..."

  • obamas poll numbers are far from being high. His poll numbers were very good until people started seeing he is just a communist leader who wants to someday control every aspect of you life from birth to death which will be an early death with his piece of shit healthcare plan and you will not be able to keep your existing plan,you will not get good healthcare,you will take what obama wants to give you and tough if you don't like it,lets insure 15-20 million illigals.go to hell obama

  • We shouldn;t rush into anything obama,you have already squandered away 700 billion dollars and no one knows where it has gone. Now you want us to believe you have a plan. Well your plans always add up to trillions in waisted money. Why should we give up the plans we have now,we like our insurance. I do not want to pay for more welfare and illigals .Put people to work and then they can afford insurance are you that stupid? or just a communist who want domination and control. go to hell

  • If you knen anything about economics you would realize that Obama prevented a depression by the actions he took, which were necessary because of the Bush Recession. There are 47 million people withoug insurance. That number was almost that high before the recession. If that's all you care about the poor, no wonder you are a republican.

  • landsdown44:

    I believe you've proven countless times that it is you who doesn't understand economics.

    Who controls the checkbook? Congress

    Who has been in control of Congress for the past 2 1/2 years? Democrats

    Economists who once supported Obama are horrified at his spending. It does NOT help the economy.

    If you researched, you would find Billions in pathetic waste --- Billions for non-income producing projects. Do you even understand that simple concept?

  • Virtually all economists acknowledge that the huge spending was needed to stimulate the economy and emerge from the bush recession. The only concern by economists is that the stimulus package was too small. Of course a bigger one would never have passed congress.

    As for waste, of course its there. Unfortunately Bush constantly looked the other way when regulations in place were ignored. After all who could it hurt.

  • landsdown44: You're so fk'ing brainwashed that it's beyond pathetic

    200 Economists, some of who originally supported Obama, some who are Nobel Laureates -- urged Obama not to push the stimulus

    They even call Obama & Biden a liars for saying that "every economist believes Govt spending [causes economic growth]

    cato-at-liberty . org / 2009 / 01 / 28 / economists-against-the-stimulu­s /

    LMAO! It was Bush & Republicans who wanted more oversight on Fannie & Freddie!

  • You apparently haven't learned anything, typical republican! Additional spending is the major tool to end economic down turns. That is what ended the depression. FDR's huge stimulus wasn't enough. It wasn't until the additional spending on WWII that the depression ended. Geez, get something right.

  • landsdown44: HAHAHA!!

    You're so idiotic. I see you fall for the FDR "myth".

    What are your credentials that surpass that of 200 notable economists, many of who are Nobel laureates? Please do tell

    Go study economic history in Japan, Celtic countries, etc. Government spending has NEVER worked.

    Start here:

    blog . heritage . org / 2009 / 01 / 14 / were-spending-more-than-ever-a­nd-it-doesnt-work /

  • Typical republican, confusing reality with fiction. I'm right on about the end of the depression, and no economist worth his salt was opposed to the stimulus. Just keep talking to yourself and mumbling, and you and your party will continue to lose!

  • landsdown:

    LMAO. I've given you links, I've given you info on 200 notable economists, Nobel laureates, etc. -- yet you say they're "not worth their salt" because they disagree w/Obama. Obama has NEVER ran a business, much less an economy. Hysterical! -- where are your credentials?

    You're just a typical blind, ignorant follower -- thank God some people with 1/2 a brain are waking up

    Another 1/2 million in lost jobs out yesterday -- but that 'emergency stimulus' is doing wonders, huh?

  • basically, gop, you havent given shit worth anything and i have given you solid facts. Bottom line: Obama is right on! and the republican recession will end

  • landsdown44:

    No, you've proven what an uneducated idiot you are

    If you scroll back through, I was the only one posting FACTS --- facts that come from Nobel economists, the CBO on FDR, etc.

    You've done nothing but post rhetoric -- you're obviously completely brainwashed by the media who spoon feeds to dummies like yourself

    Who controls Washington D.C's checkbook? Congress

    Who has controlled Congress for the past 2 1/2 years? Democrats

  • I have continually posted facts. You, on the other hand continually post lies. I can see your economist and raise you 5. And thank God the democrats have controled congress and the presidency since 08. Because of them we have avoided a huge depression. You can thank us all later.

  • landsdown44:

    You've posted NOTHING

    ROFLMAO!! No dipshit, the Democrats have controlled Congress since January of 2007 ----- hahaha ---- do you see how stupid you are yet?

  • having a further convrersation with you, who only specializes in name calling, compromises my intellect.

  • landsdown44:

    Compromises your intellect? LMAO!! What intellect?

    YOU DIDN'T EVEN KNOW WHO HAS CONTROLLED CONGRESS FOR THE PAST 2 1/2 YEAR!!

    Hysterical!!!

  • How full of bullshit can one person be. Don't claim what I have not known because if it has anything to do with politics or government, I could take you on with half my brain tied behind my back.

  • landsdown44:

    HAHAHAHA!!! Stop embarrassing yourself

    Someone trying to discuss politics who didn't even know Democrats have controlled Congress since January 2007

    Yea, you REALLY know a lot about politics

    ROFLMAO!!

  • FDR myth??? You are an idiot. Did you live through the depression? FDR pulled us out of it or was that just magic? and you are right about government spending when it comes to health care. That's why the people in France and Germany have it so badly.

  • and thats why the life expectancies in those countries are higher than here...but people believe what they want i guess.

  • Actually, Smelly, FDR didn't pull us out of the Depression, WWII did.

    The US economy was tanking even worse under many of the Alphabet Soup programs introduced by FDR. Many economists blame out of control spending from turning a bad recession into the full on Depression.

  • the fact that american's are refusing to subsidise healthcare is disgusting

  • This is just exactly want The messiah wants. Bully this piece of crap right through. No one has even read it all yet. Just like the stimulus... yeah stim ur azz! Obama is a nut job.

  • Listen to what Rush said in his Greta interview, he is spot on about what is going on with this health care fiasco.

  • Stop paying for the HC for the 10mil + Illegals going in and out of this country!!!!

  • Hey, how come nobody asked obama about Boxer being a racist with w/harry Alford. he's making comments on the guy who broke into his own house, & ADMITTED he dosent know what happened. All he'd have to do is watch the Boxer/Alford tape and see Boxer was talking down to Mr. Alford. IS BOXER A RACIST AND STUPID MR. PRES?

  • Hey landsdown44, please take ur head out of your ass. u hav got to b the DUMBEST commentor on youtube. u shuld hav ur keyboard confiscated, phone disconnected&the HOPENCHANGE sticker taken off ur bumber. get a clue

  • I love it!!! We are governing by astronomy and personal stories. The stars are lined up so it is time for universal healthcare. Who needs The Constitution.

  • No, we actually have a President who understands how to follow the Constitution, not one who bypasses it whenever he feels like it.

  • landsdown44:

    Obama follows the Constitution? LMAO!!!!

    Tell Obama to read the fk'ing 10th Amendment & stay out of state's business

    Tell Obama he has no Constitutional authority to "spread the wealth"

    You people bitched about Bush's Patriot Act --- totally oblivious now to the fact that Obama is implementing a policy to police ALL internet traffic

    HAHAHA!! Liberals act so "stupidly"

  • After Obamacare

    Next is the Universal Appliance Warranty (UAW). My frig is broke and I don't have the money to fixed it, I was just fired to pay for the new healthcare taxes. My neighbors won't store my food in their frig, and it isn't fair that they have one and I don't. Gov't should make them pay for my warranty so I can get it fixed. Please, Mr. Obama, fix this problem! Tax everyone with a frig so 47 million can have one. Why only the rich have access to working refrigerators?

  • censor the commetn that help others but put in insults, vulagrarity and cruelty. thanks youtube

  • Graet respinse. Some of us don't care about facts.

  • Obama wants to spend less time reviewing massive legislation than he did deciding on what breed of dog to get

  • There is nothing wrong with doing National health care NOW. It's not too fast. That argument is just a Republican smoke screen to deflect the fact that they have nothing to offer the millions of uninsured.

  • landsdown44: You are so BLIND

    A) Obama wants to spend less time on massive legislation than he did choosing a breed of dog

    B) Proven FACT, Obama himself doesn't know all that it's in the bill

    C) Where is your proof that every blue dog is in the pockets of insurance companies --- or are you just 'making it up' in order to defend Obama's idiotic proposals?

    D) LOL. Medicaid, Medicare, Social Security are going bankrupt

  • Medicade, Medicare, and social security are going bankrupt because congress won't fund them and because the insurance companies keep the costs so high

    Of course there will always be those who will attempt to use a good program and be corrupt. That's no reason to do nothing. We are the only industrialized country without national health care. There is corruption in those coutries too, but it is a far better sysetm than ours and it costs much less per capita.

  • landsdown44:

    I love it. "Congress won't fund them"

    LOL. Where do you think money the Govt has comes from?

    MASSIVE BILLIONS of corruption in Medicare, Medicaid, Welfare ---- we've had decades to try & make them work efficiently. But no, let's just implement another MASSIVE Govt program

    CBO says the Govt will be in the RED for this --- are you unable to grasp that?

    It is ILLEGAL to not provide health CARE -- stop confusing Health "care" & "insurance"

  • Let me know when you are ready to enter the real world.

    Of course funding comes from taxes. the idiot Bush gave tax cuts to the richest . We need to tax to help pay for what is necessary. Again, Medicare, Medicade, are run far more effeciently than the private sector FAR better!

    By far most of the uninsured are in that spot becaue they are unable to obtain insurance. Why the hell does every industrialized nation except the U.S. have national health care and their costs are far lower!

  • landsdown44:

    Let me know when you become free of the brainwashed mind you obviously have.

    Please do tell how Bush gave tax cuts only to the "richest". That's what has been spoonfed to you -- clearly, you have no idea what you're talking about

    Again, Medicare & Medicaid are going Bankrupt!! How is that "efficiency"? LOL

  • I'm feeding you facts and you respond with GOP BS.. The fact is Bush gave the biggest tax cuts to the richest Americans. That is not debatable. It is fact. In fact if you made more than $20 million per year,  your cut was even more dramatic. As for Medicare and Medicade, you obviously haven't a clue there either. The overhead is almost nonexistent compared to the Ins. Companies. The reason for the short fall - its a govt funded program and survives by tax revenue which Bush igored.

  • landsdown44:

    Again, you are an idiot

    Bush did NOT give bigger percentage breaks to the richests -- in fact, under Bush's tax cuts to all, more of the burden was shifted to the wealthiest

    Additionally, with Bush's 2003 tax cuts, the Government received MORE revenue.

    LOL @ your comment about Medicare & Medicaid --- you're obviously the clueless one. For starters, try learning how to spell it first --- your ignorant comments are nothing short of laughable.

  • Hey, why don't you just look it up for yourself. So far the only thing you are good at is calling names, and you really excel at that. I'm not on this site to participate in a spelling bee. I'm trying to teach ignorant people the truth.

  • how is that? they still recieved tax cuts - granted the percentages may be lower than a middle class household but the amount would still be several times more than what the middle class was getting...i can earn 40million a year and get a 12.7% cut and thats more than the salary of the average citizen...the govt was spending money it didnt have - and with tax cuts it wouldnt be making more revenue b/c the revenue is taxes --which are being cut, hence, the national deficit.

  • myspaceBack: Study economic history

    First, Bush gave everyone a 05 tax cut across the board -- the "rich" were obviously still in a higher bracket

    The top 50% wage earners already foot 96% of the nation's tax bill

    FACT - lowering tax cuts boost revenue

    It happened under Bush's tax cuts, it happened w/the Celtic countries who FINALLY tried it. Look at the 5 states now who have budget surpluses. TX just created more jobs than ALL 49 other states COMBINED - with ZERO state income tax

  • lol if its such a fact then why was there still deficit spending going on? we should have had economic growth not failure during the Bush era..BOTH times..and under Reagan - but that did not happen.. thats economic history. the main source of revenue is taxes.. cutting them does not increase it - the theory is that by doing it it will boost spending habits etc..but look at what happened that should tell u something went wrong with that plan

  • myspaceBack:

    Because you obviously don't understand the difference -- you're talking about 2 entirely different things

    You have to look at bottom line revenue --- not how much was spent above & beyond that

    Newsflash: I know what I'm talking about

    Lowering taxes increases revenue - it is a FACT - proven countless times

    Here are 2 of MANY examples:

    -After Bush's 2003 tax cuts, revenue increased by $47 Billion

    -Capital gains tax revenues DOUBLED following the 2003 tax cut

  • im not really talking about two separate things..if these cuts increased revenue we wouldnt have such an economic downturn. lowering taxes in my opinion doesnt increase revenues..but quite honestly no one can prove it does no one ever has...it is proven than tax increases always directly increase revenue.

    and just b/c you say you know what you're talking about that means you do? sure..ok...

  • myspaceBack:

    YES, you are indeed talking about 2 different things

    If you got a huge raise, yet went crazy & spent it all ---- are you saying you didn't make more money? Same concept.

    You are arguing against economic history -- I've given you information, links, etc. -- including some from the Congressional Budget Office

  • my point was if it increased revenue - whether we spent it or not we should be in a better economic condition- and economic history? nothing can be proven in that regard. its unknown as to whether tax cuts helped or harmed..but when a president that endorse those kinds of policies have been in office we have an economic downturn -and that is general knowledge. also you provided no links whatsoever just numbers that couldve come from anywhere that cant be directly correlated just assumed

  • myspaceBack:

    YES -- it's been proven countless times -- in America & beyond

    READ

    investopedia . com / articles / 07 / tax_cuts . asp

    heritage . org / research / taxes / bg2001 . cfm

  • it doesnt prove anything - it cant really be proven either way -its all theory. boosts likes the one you're attributing to tax cuts have pretty much happened throughout american history with cuts or without. so to say they are in direct response to that is debateable at best which is why you have people on each side of the spectrum on the issue. cuz it cant be proven either way though tax increases is immediate and direct. these liniks are sources of nonbiased info? please theres agendas in each

  • myspaceBack:

    Let's see. I give you stats from the CBO, other countries, etc. -- yet you choose to believe a position in which you have no stats for

    Small businesses (the largest job creator) -- if their taxes are increased = less production, fewer jobs, less revenue

    Corporations: Microsoft & others warned Obama if he raises taxes, operations will move overseas = job losses, less revenue

    If you PENALIZE productivity, you get less of it --- FACT

  • b/c any economist will tell u what you are arguing cant really be proven which is why it is an issue of debate. just because the word "fact" in front of a statement doesnt make it so..but choose to believe what you want...

  • myspaceBack:

    STATS = FACTS

    Statistics show that obese people are less healthy --- are you going to argue that "fact", even though there are only stats to prove it?

  • stats prove little, anyone can have numbers that support their stance - and statisics dont show obese people as "less healthy" the definition of a "healthy lifestyle" and the lifestyle of someone who is considered obese does.. stats only make an attempt to support an assertion. People who believe their position is correct find stats that support it. if it was that open and shut there would be no debate between us or those on the national level but there is, which means its not black and white.

  • myspaceBack:

    You're splitting hairs & I think you know that

    And YES --- stats prove that obese people are less healthy

    The REASON taxes/revenue are not debated is because Democrats HIDE the facts --- and have zero facts to support their position --- they simply have a base of ignorant people who are clueless

  • stats prove nothing stats merely support ones argument they can always be disputed and skewed. like i said what we define as healthy & obese is what 'proves' that assertion. Ur real argument is that dems hide facts that according to u are flawless & proven? c'mon ur oversimplifying...& .ALL parties appeal to a base that has misinformed or unknowing people. thats politics- tax cuts arent proven to work otherwise every prez would have done it, & no one would argue with it b/c they get a tax cut.

  • you haven't demonstrated shit in every ignorant post, nothing, just more hot air. BTW, I campaigned for a winning senator in 06. I know damn well who won congress. I referenced 08 because not much could be done over that idiot Bush's veto until we got rid of that recession causing, constitution breaking idiot.

  • landsdown44: LOL

    Nice try at backtracking

    It is clear you know zero about politics. The majority party sets the agenda, can block amendments from the minority party, etc etc

    Bush broke the Constitution? How's that?

    I guess you're perfectly fine with Obama breaking the 10th amendment & the fact he is extending Bush's Patriot Act to include policing ALL internet traffic -- lmao

  • Bush institutied unwarranted searches and seizures, instituted torture, ended the right of habeas corpus. Yup, he pretty much trashed the constitution he was sworn to uphold. If there were justice, he would be in prison. I'm not really anti-republican, but Bush was the worst president in history. If the republican party would return to the Party of Eisenhower, instead of the party of limbaugh, there would be hope for it.

    By attaching to limbaugh, the gop has married a whore.

  • BTW, GOP, your accusations are ignorant and making you look stupid. You might want to stop.

  • landsdown44:

    HAHAHA!! Thanks for proving what an uneducated idiot you are

    Geneva Convention?  Go read it. It applies to only soldiers in uniform --- Al Qaeda aren't "uniformed soldiers"

    Searches & Seizures? --- I'm sure your ignorant ass is perfectly fine w/Obama wanting to police ALL internet traffic, right dipshit?

    You might also tell Obama to read the 10th Amendment --- he obviously failed that course

  • re-read my comment and, if possible, turn your brain to the "on" position before making a further fool of yourself.

  • landsdown44:

    I read your idiotic comment

  • landsdown44:

    Out of 47 million "uninsured" --- millions are illegals

    Millions of the remaining are people who opted not to take out insurance thru their employers

    Line those people up who say they "can't afford" & I guarantee you'd be hard pressed to find someone without:

    Cell Phones, iPods, Satellite/Cable TV, Computer, Internet Service, etc

    It's called "priorities"

  • landsdown44:

    If you believe drug makers, medical equipment manufs, etc, won't be in the pockets of politicians, I'm afraid you're too far gone

    NUMEROUS Democrats under investigation currently for corruption, fraud / political favors with corporations -- including billions in the stimulus

  • Agreed. He doesn't even know what is in the bill, and the dems will, as usual, slip in something last minute.  Why would anyone want to sign a contract without reading it?????
