  • You may not agree with AG, or even like him but you have to admire a man who gets to Congress and tries to get something done besides getting reelected. I wish He'd move to Ohio and run for governor.

  • This guy is a joke and he will only talk to the liberal press. No wonder he got kicked out.

  • This dude needs to run alongside Ron Paul

  • If i didn't know better i would think he was talking about abortion

  • miss you rep grayson :'(

  • wow i liked this guy for voting for the federal audit but fuck grow up man

  • chris mathews is a pussy!Grayson tells it how it is!

  • @AZTECA450

    LOL your boy Al got his ass kicked by 18 pts. See ya later asshole.

  • America has called Alan Grayson back to the House this week....along with about 70 of his dumocrat colleagues...

    Nancy Pelosi is reportedly puzzled by their reporting back to the office.

    Later though, the issue was cleared up when the voters told the 70 LOUD & CLEAR "Clean out your desks you dirtbags!!!!" "YOU'RE FIRED !!!!!"

    We are making YOUR political careers DIE QUICKLY !!!!!

    Blahhh Hlaaaa HAaaaaa Haaaaaaa........

    OUTA HERE !!!!

  • I look forward to his departure, and soon

  • lol, Grayson will be in the unemployment line soon...i love karma

  • No sugar-coating. No more letting the right get away with outrageous statements. Alan pushes back. He's a rock star!!!

  • Alan it looks like you are a member of the scalp painters club for men.

  • THIS GUY IS A NUTJOB HOLY SHIT.

  • Yes sir. "The party of nobody", I absolutely love it! I'm going to show them just how much I love it in November. Thank you Alan for standing up for the American people and what's right.

  • lol Dan Akroyd

  • Why am I watching this buffoon again?

  • Grayson is a one man Tank!

  • i dont get this? whats the big deal? its health care for all! wtf America join the rest of the western world. broke my hand on wednesday went for xray on thursday pin in hand by thursday knight. cost Zero, i was 18 at uni had no money to pay for it. i pay tax now so others can benefit and we spend less on health care in % terms in the uk then the USA

  • You shouldn't have to save you money for medical expenses lol. That is the problem here.

    They will put your ass in jail if you don't pay taxes, just like everything else, that isn't new, it is just an addition to taxes so we can all have cheaper healthcare. I would rather pay cheaper health taxes then save for a house loan for my medical expenses.

  • Like the illegal 13th amendment was never legally ratified to actually make it A law. The Income tax is A fraud and goes directly to A private bank AKA the Federal Reserve. they use thugs FBI to enforce laws that don't exist. this health care takeover is written of, by and for the insurance companies. the fraud is that they don't want it. Just like Big Oil doesn't want cap & trade. Both industries stand to make billions if these laws are put in place. A free lunch does not exist.

  • Our income tax goes directly to the fed because we are always going to be in debt until it is reformed.

    I never said it was going to be a free lunch. We are paying high expenses for healthcare so these people in the industry and live the high life. They go directly to your employer discriminating again people that don't have those benefits and leaving them outside of the loop. When do costs go down? NEVER! But our pay does!

  • Alan Grayson is A well spoken well meaning guy who has some balls to say what he says. He does seem to get tied up into this whole left right paradigm. His views on health care seem narrowminded. Following Pelosi and Reid is not the answer. This so called health bill will lock you in jail if you dont pay for it. It is not free health care.

    Yes Cheney is A piece of trash war criminal. He no doubt had A hand in 9/11

    His voice is good for the dems and Obama, he makes them look good.

  • @Drumvain I agree with you.

  • That is republican scare tactics to scare you into thinking your going to jail if you don't pay for your healthcare, but it is just like not paying taxes, and everybody has to do that anyways.

  • That is A left talking point. The bill they have been trying to pass says it will put your ass in jail. If you are for world government and the death of this once prosperous nation then you should support this takeover. It will not mean free health care like so many think. It will mean more government in your life. What is the solution? How about start by taking care of yourself w/ diet & exercise. Stop eating crap & waiting to get sick. Save $ for medical expenses, get out of the soup line!

  • @Drumvain ugh its not like you dont have the option to buy private insurance. Think of the fine like one you'd get for not having you're safety belt on while driving or a fine for not having car insurance. If you DONT have the fine, you STILL have A LOT of people with in America with no healthcare, the point of the bill is to make sure as many people as possible are covered.

  • @LakaiTillYouDie The point is there is no such thing as A free lunch. To make you pay through your FICA if necessary, is A strong arm tactic. Like I said the insurance companies wrote the bill, it benefits them not the insured. When you are in need of surgery or some other major operation you will find out what you will get wont be what you need. Please try & find someone who lives in the U.K. and ask them how they like their government health care.

  • @Drumvain Actually I'm a duel citizen canada/usa AND I've had a lot of health problems so yeah... i know universal healthcare works first hand. On your point about the insurance companies writing the bill; yes i know, and that's why it sucks, it's water'd down and only applies band aid solutions to a HUGE problem. But at least its reformed the system somewhat and more people are covered, if the insurance companies had it their way, there would be no bill at all.

  • @LakaiTillYouDie Our government is broke, we just sent A trillion to prop up the euro like it was nothing. There is no way this spending can be maintained. We are looking at an all out collapse of the $. Most states are borrowing from the fed to pay welfare & unemployment. Medicare & V.A. are some of the worst state run systems. The insurance co's did get there way, now you will be forced to pay them.

  • @LakaiTillYouDie What all this amounts to is another takeover of industry. First it was the monetary, the 1913 federal reserve act, that gave the power to the fed to tax all labor. This in effect turned us all into surfs, now we have seen A takeover of the military (halliburton, blackwater, KBR etc) The auto industry, the banking industry and now the medical industry. This about control of public tax $'s that go directly into the hands of A few corporations.

  • @Drumvain hmmm, i don't know any surfs in America ??? Surfs are slave peasants that farmed land in exchange for, usually, very little food and shelter. Wtf are you talking about the 1913 reserve act didn't turn us into surfs at all, ridiculous. Aside from that, why should the medical industry be private? I think we've proven that that doesn't work because people, accountable to nobody but shareholders, will take advantage of the sick. Gov't programscan at least be held accountable by the public.

  • @LakaiTillYouDie What do you in all your high powered wisdom think A tax on income is? It is the tyranny that this nation was founded to put A stop to. Why do you think the amendment to the constitution was never legally ratified. Because the states & the people were not going to vote (& never have) on A unjust law to tax labor. When you dont own your own labor you are by definition A surf. Who's b.s. do you believe? Shultz?! He is funded by G.E.

  • @Drumvain surf, by definition, is the slave of a land owner, surfs don't get paid, surfs definitely don't live as comfortably as Americans.

  • @LakaiTillYouDie Really, most of the people I know have no land to speak of & are struggling to find and maintain jobs. America has fallen, Obama is making sure what rises in it's ashes will be A NWO.

  • If only we had 20 more people like Grayson, we might be able to get some shit done for once!

  • @ArrogantCancerian America has called Alan Grayson back to the House this week....along with about 70 of his dumocrat colleagues...

    Nancy Pelosi is reportedly puzzled by their reporting back to the office.

    Later though, the issue was cleared up when the voters told the 70 LOUD & CLEAR "Clean out your desks you dirtbags!!!!" "YOU'RE FIRED !!!!!"

    We are making YOUR political careers DIE QUICKLY !!!!!

    Blahhh Hlaaaa HAaaaaa Haaaaaaa........

    OUTA HERE !!!!

  • Grayson is the way he is because he came into his own money before becoming a member of congress a self made man can speak his mind. A clown produced by the industry is a puppet

  • whatever dude.  this guy reciprocates what the republicans do on a daily basis. if you can give it, you can take!

  • Lol dude i think you totally misunderstood what i said

  • no i got it.

    I just enjoyed how he calls it like it is. He wont ignore the pink hippo in the room

  • It's a beautiful thing too bad we can't clone him there are too many dweebs in congress

  • @SharpWanker you have to have a lot of your own money to run for office in the first place.

  • @LakaiTillYouDie True but there are caps in place to avoid just blowouts through spending

  • did he say....kerfuffle? it was around 2:00 i think...

  • Grayson, Gravel, Kucinch, and Ron Paul are the few good men in government

  • Grayson rocks

  • 8Yrs of GOP rule.They do Not care about deficit if they did why did they pass super Spending bills?Why did GOP members vote on Spending bills like giving No Bid Contracts to Haliburton? Why pay War contractors Billions for Work Our Military can do for less? FUCK War Contractors Pay Our Soldiers More Money give them the 100k a Yr Salary!

    Spend Trillions in Iraq and Afghan but they cry the Minute we start Spending on our People!

    I Prefer the Lesser of the 2 evils Democrats !

    Besides GOP=racist!

  • lol, this is too much man, did they say Palin went Rogue, this is how you go rogue

  • I always laugh when they say Sarah Palin is "going rouge" because all I can think of is a vacant Beauty queen sans underwear.

  • One democrat fights back and republicans have to cry like the bitches they are. I don't like everything democrats do but how fucking pathetic the Republican party has gotten.

  • Go Grayson - You know, if Hardball would do a little fact checking, the audience would know who's lying!

  • Alan "Captain Cajones" Grayson if you are such a man with guts why do you run away from the nerd Fox reporter Griff Jenkins? Someone who has guts aka John Wayne type doesn't run away, he takes his shots, dust himself off, and leaps back into the fray.

  • Because Griff Jenkins cut his microphone. People at Fox don't let you make your point, they lower the mic, talk over people and on several occasions, cut off peoples microphones. O'Reilly has done it several times.

    And on Cheney. Obama sent Cheney a letter in March 2008 indicating that Afghanistan was deteriorating. Gen Mckiernen as well. What happened?

    It was denied. Problem with republicans is they all follow talking points and propaganda. They never believe in facts just like Fox News

  • You are totally right. They also use the EQ of people's voice audio to enhance or diminish the power. They use camera tactics, like having Hannity so high in the frame, and Moore lower. They also have "technical difficulties" when someone is making a point they don't like.

    It's obvious to people that actually pay attention to what is going on, and don't ignore these hickups.

  • Because only an idiot goes into battle unprepared.

    Jenkins was hoping to stress him out into saying something so they could mock him.

  • Dude all those want to be tough guys at fox are fuckn pussys!

    They stand for the wealthy they only care about big business they do Not care about middle working Americans!

    8 Yrs of G.O.P Rule Please name what they did for health care? They did Nothing they do Not give a fuck about working class Americans!Please OPEN YOU Eyes America read look, study, see whats going on? Compare 8 Yrs of GOP rule they did Nothing for working class Americans except give big Tax Breaks for the Wealthy!

  • Oh man... i so enjoy how blatantly ridiculous the republicans can be... its sad... but funny...

    like really really really sad...

    but funny...

    John Boehner 2:50 so so so "ironical"...

  • Grayson is a perfect example of what happens when people stand by their principles. People notice and people listen.

    I hate to make this comparison, but that was one of the main things (other than Karl Rove) that got Bush re-elected. He always stood by his positions regardless of what anyone said.

    Its about time someone who actually represents rational positions (unlike Bush) did the same thing.

  • We love you Alan Grayson!!!!

  • Sadly, I am a Democrat, the same party that the above representative is a part of. His remarks on Hardball done nothing to advance the cause of affordable healthcare, a stable Afghanistan, etc. In fact, the name calling set us back quite a bit.

  • Alan Grayson a courages man, who speaks the truth!

    We love you.

  • It's sad that members of Congress, both Democrat and Republican, are being hypocritical and complacent as to allow Grayson to get away with the things that he's said and done.

    By the way, sad to see that no one's pointed out in these video comments or descriptions that a lot of the names on his website have been found to be fraudulent.

  • Grayson wouldn't know a hardball if it hit him in his big fat obese blubbery lard ass. His dick is up Chris Matthews ass - wow, what a picture that is while he's sucking off Obama

  • Oh,,, you are a real deep thinker... great vocabulary, Billy Bob! IS that all you got... Keep opening your pie hole, you show just how stupid and ignorant you are... Educate yourself, Bozo!

  • this guy makes me ashamed to be from florida, especially from the district right next door. fearmongering at its finest. and to bash and belittle a former vice president like that is dispicable. this guy is a complete low-life.

  • Really? You are ashamed or are you joking? Cheney and the rest of the Bush admin. should be sent to the Hague for all the debt, destruction and deaths they not only caused in the US but world wide. As far as I'm concerned the Cheney is worse than Radovan Karadzic.

  • Oh ... Fucking ... No !

    Isn't Chrissy Matthew's right testicle going to get awfully mad if his left testicle get's all tingly for Grayson?

    They're supposed to be true to Barry. They promised only to be tingled when the little messiah opines about all that blathering shit he opines about ....... Hopey ... Changey .... Newey .... Bettery.

    Grayson ..... there's a bullseye on that big shovel forehead of yours now. You look like a cross between Leonid Brezhnev and Gomer Pyle.

  • grayson is a champion!!!

    Paul/Grayson 2012!

    Then, all the people that have sold america for a quick buck will be shaking.

  • I heard you call that Enron lobbyist a whore! How dare you sir....degrade whores like that! LOL :)

  • so true

  • Boehner talking - LOL HYPOCRISY

  • PLEASE advise Mr Grayson to avoid this Alex Jones like the plague...

    Everything Jones touches turns to shit, PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE...

    Someone in his office, please let him know.

  • This man is Badass, I love it! Keepmoving forward Grayson, Rock on!

  • I call Alan Grayson the Democrats' Avenging Angel.

    America's only real enemies are Republicans.

  • americas real enemies are anyone on either side that is not open to reason.

  • I'm so happy to see someone out there on the left who is is on the offensive, but these comments about Cheney are just silly and irrelevant. Grayson really loses some credibility with this performance. What I like about him is that he's helped re-frame the debate to where there is discussion about the fact that people are dying for lack of adequate healthcare coverage. This kink of thing is just distracting from the real issues.

  • Heh, "familiar pattern" indeed. I think Alan Grayson was childish here, but for a Republican to whine that Democrats have launched "vicious political attacks"...the hypocrisy is mind-boggling.

  • Oh how dignified this man is. He acts like a 1st grader even matthews was offended by him.

  • Alan Grayson has no reelection agenda. He do not care that then republican will be hurt by what he says because he knows that the bullies has to be punched in the face so they stop making troubles.

    He acts like a 1st grader because this is the weapons the GOP is using and it is effective toward the population

  • Well I think he does have a reelction agenda like every single elected official in the free world. I dont think it helped the democrats cause. I think the GOP is mounting an effective campaign against a bill few want. In their position this is a considerable achievemnent. before you get into the whole american health care sucks let me tell you I am a canadian who supports single payer. But Obamas plan is suicidal even with a public option. You got to be a spirit! You can't be no ghost.

  • More than 50% of the population is "few" ?

    I would agree that Obama's plan is suicidal but only if it does not contain a public option accessible to everyone.

    As it is now without a public option AND a mandate, this is just more money for the HC companies...

  • You're correct in that almost everyone will say we need reform. But this plan has only 45% support and only 23% of that is strong. 40% stongly oppose and 15% simply oppose. Even a public option though will fall victim to the same scheme because it will still cost more money to buy insurance from the govt than pay the fine annually. Face it you need either a far right solution which will never happen well obama is in office or single payer which no one is talking about.

  • I dont know where you pick your numbers from but i could point you to an exact opposite poll.

    Poll do not mean squat when 95% of the population is uninformed or misinformed on a subject anyway.

  • Well rasmussen was the most accuarte poll in the 2008 election. Yeah Yeah Yeah right wing extremist that scott rasmussen. You're a typical statist the population is too stupid to know whats good for them.

    Bulworth cant be no ghost.

  • Most polls give more supporter for the public option. One or two polls gives the opposite.

    Now can you tell me why the republican prefer to hear a music they like ?

    And yes, many time, the population is too stupid to know what is good for them.

    In 1981 in France, a vast majority supported the death penalty. Despite this, it was abolished and now very few support the death penalty and no country in Europe have or applies it.

  • I actually agree with you on this health care issue. Single payer would be better for most americans but their fierce independence makes them unable to see that govt can actually be useful in this area. Rassmussen is the most accurate. I heard but cannot confirm that the poll in the Washington post that had 57% support pulled mostly democrats. Rassmussen simply does likely voters.

  • Which excludes everyone under 40.

  • It's sad American's can't get good healthcare...

    When will be the time when American's won't get harrassed for smoking a joint harming nobody but cops be assholes that they are. It's sad....In my town a person will get locked up for a joint....!!!!

  • That's the first time I see anyone representing Florida that doesn't make me ashamed. I like this guy, at least one fucking politician that doesn't play the bullshit game. Some of his jokes are kind of lame but whatever, at least he feels real.

  • Is refreshing to see someone with balls that call it like it is.

    Alan Grayson is THE MAN !

    A Congressman with BALLS !!

  • You're the joke. Liberals are tolerant especially when compared to right-winged nuts. Hateful, racists, separatist and above all servants to the Devil. The world is watching and mocking the Republican goons. Hiding under the guise of God and spirituality, these self-righteous war mongers would have you believe they cared about humanity when its really all about lining their pockets and protecting their own. By the way you have to look like them to be "their" own. Racist hateful porch monkey

  • LOL, liberals are intolerant because Grayson called Cheney a vampire??? Please! Would I be intolerant if I called Hitler an evil monster?

    I feel bad for you right wingers, it must be so aweful to see your knuckedragging philosophies no longer tolerated, and have to find new ways to repackage your selfishness, greed, biggotry, racism & sexism under hilariously bogus banners of "god" and "freedom" and "personal responsibility".

    No woner you're all so angry.

  • Then so was ted bundy

  • and in conclusion I just don't plain like you guys. How does that make you feel? How does that make you feel that one of your fellow Americans dislike you your attitude?

    My god help this nation if this President and you Democrats continue in power for another Presidential term and 6 more years You will and I repeat you will destroy this nation financially and security wise.

  • No, Republicans bankrupt the country, Dems fix it and raise the standard of living for the middle & lower class.

    of course if you could read...and wanted to read (all right wingers are willfully ignorant)...you would see that the historical stats clearly and plainly show this.

    But you keep listening to Fox & Limbaugh...like a good little sheep being led to the slaughter by propagandist who would sell you all for $1 a pound if they could.

  • Oh man please stop playing into this paradigm bullshit. You wanna know why the Republican and Democrat war has been refuelled in the past year? Because Obama's approval rating dropped below 50% and they needed something to cover up the growing dissent among the United States Govt.

    George W. Bush called them Terrorists and extremists, Obama calls them Republicans and racists.

    ...and the anglo-saxon empire of the world makes another rotation. Fucken typical.

  • You are mean ...and I seriously mean this. If one of my kids became a Democrats I would truely think about what I did wrong. Because there isn't a Democrat that I have met that doesn't have a mean and nasty disposition. Everyday they wake up with a sense of anger and believe that they have the right to decide what is best for Americans. You believe that you have the right to say to America - you don't know better were smarter and sit down and shut up. Oh yeah you just plain not good for America

  • Democrats are smarter and you should think about quitting having children with your siblings.

  • You should do a little more research. Democrats are definitely unequivocally smarter than Republicans. And if your kids grow into productive Dems, that's what we call "evolution". You knuckle dragging Republicans bring the image of America down. Claim to Constitutionalists but re-write it when it suits you. Like that monkey-in-a-suit Cheney. He must've skipped class the day they discussed the Constitution. What a joke, and seriously an offensive human being. Scooter took the fall for him.

  • Replace Democrat with Republican and you'd basically have the same statement.

  • LOL!

    I love it!

    Thank you, Florida, for electing Captain Cojones!

  • Comment removed

  • anyone that sacrifices innocent blood for the purpose of financial gain is a vampire...in this case grayson is correct is drawing that metaphor for one of the biggest criminals in modern history.

  • When The Republican sickness is removed from America only than can the body politic be healthy.

  • So you want a one party system?

    I'm sorry but both party's are corrupt and shitty. The only thing that keeps them in check is their own greed.

    Two shitty parties competing against each other is better than one shitty party ruling without consequence.

  • That's exactly what we have already.

  • WOOOOOOOO Go get them Rep Alan Grayson. You can do it. Eye of the tiger.

  • Well let's see? Ronaldo Reagagoon started the collapse of our economy through deregulation and the trickle down effect aka "voodoo economics". People not only need regulation( boundaries) but want it. After R.R. the democrat turned republican I quit the party.

  • Keep talking like that and some posse/militia group will be targeting you and your home for a Jihad. They have elevated that POS to the status they used to reserve for Jesus. I keep waiting to hear about people seeing his image in things like fried cheese sandwiches, piles of spilled money or on the side of crates of ammo.

    Me, I see his image all the time, then I light a match and flush.

  • The comment bout "shooting people in the face" is beneath contempt;he has no sense of dignity and is obviously a shameless publicity hound;and how does Wallace get away with not even feigning impartiality;another example of what a joke MSNBC is.The Obama Rumpswab network.

  • Hey, isn't Fox and Fiends on? Go tune in quick, you miss miss the secret talking point of the day and your chance to win the daily grand prize! I hear its a chance to make love to Reagans corpse!!!

  • mrbriscoe: I rather doubt that, but that discussion would be as pointless as a bowling ball. What I will say is their is no need to stereotype you, you do that all by yourself. You buy into the 40 year old ploy first utilized by tricky Dicky Nixon to shield himself from the media. This remains a mantra for the unthinking raving right to this day because in your mind, any questioning of your 'Dearly Beloved Enlightened Leader' (PBUH) is tantamount to treason and heresy, you

    necrophiliac.

  • Plutinwolf :Wow.You're so....deep. You try to up your discourse level by bringing up Richard Nixon? Uhmm.who's acting like Richard Nixon right now?it sounds like the Obama administration is the one with the enemies list.;it's cravenly,cowardly trying to Freeze out Fox News;even the other stations were smart enough to realize how dangerous a precedent that is and stopped it;the point isn't Left or Right ,but a dangerous overreaction from the administration;Dunn will resign shortly.

  • mrbriscoe: Gosh, you are so...clever? Nixon never left the conversation. His toxic legacy has been resounding through the Republicans play book since he slimed onto the scene. from the "southern strategy" to the use of the "win at all costs" philosophy the GOP constantly adheres to. This lame quack about "liberal media bias" is as disproven as the Flat Earth theory. But try convincing the glassy eyed tin foil hat crew of this....oh....wait....never mind.

  • Plutonwolf sorry about mrbriscoe, I think he's upset that "their America" is changing and he's embracing the only truth he knows. You know, the truth about dinosaurs not existing and all that crazy Darwinian talk. These are uncomfortable times for mrbriscoe and his party. The "Good old" days are coming to an end and their fighting feverishly to keep them. Those damn heretic Dems and that "colored" President has them feeling unsafe. If we get attacked by N.Korea, they will wanna attack China!!

  • Feh, no need for a good person like you to have to answer for a cave troll like that.

    As to attacking China....are you kidding me? China? They LOVE China.....they'll want to go after Viet Nam ;-)

  • comparing cheney to a vampire is frankly an insult to vampires (except teenage vampires, they can go die in a fire too)-- count dracula at least had refined aristocratic sensibilities. cheney is just evil incarnate, more comparable to beelzebub.

  • guts? that coward went on tingly leg MSNBC. wow, how gutsy. go on fox with o'reilly you pansy.

  • Gee, I'd figure the way he stands up to people in the House makes him bold enough. Other reps > O'Reilly.

  • LoL he's been on the O'Reilly factor. Do your homework before you spout off, silly. :)

  • can't find it. semd me a link please.

  • This whatever his name is, is a doucebag.

  • This neanderthal should "DIE QUICKLY!"

  • Grayson is a clown outdoing his outlandish stunts for the purpose of placating the most vile of "progressives". Its nothing more than misdirection to make them forget that despite having a super majority the Obama regime has failed to pass there radical agenda.

    Obamas aproval index is -13, despite having all the mainstream media eating out of the palm of his hands. Send in the clowns... hoho

  • There has been much internet speculation about Obama's health. In particular his weight loss, and the purplish discoloration of his lips. Every one is talking about this, yet the MSM ignores it. The American people deserve to know. What's going on with the president's lips?

  • That's the Kenyan oozing out of him!

  • Why in the world should the MSM report on internet speculation Dagney77 ? NOT reporting on it may be one thing that they get right .... idiot!

  • Why waste your time and mine with puerile name calling and gossip Dagney77?

  • Now you want to our governments National Security interests to be goverened by what you yourself called "internet speculation"? You are either very young and naive or very stupid Dagney77 .

  • Well it seems that he has had purple lips for a few years

    Dagney77. Maybe it's time for the secret service to tackle him in the Oval Office and haul him off to a doctor.

    BTW My sister inlaw had purple lips 40 years ago. She's retired now and still giving everyone grief.

    You need a hobby. Take up long distance cycling you'll soon forget about all this stupid shit.

  • Ugliest man in congress.

  • "Captain Cojones'! I love it! Very apt nickname for a man who is doing a great job calling out the Republicans and Blue Dogs for obstructing real reform.

    Watching him grill Broun and the slimy Feds is becoming one of my favorite pastimes. It's a thing of beauty.

  • 47,000 people die each year from lack of health care in America ? If you are thirty years old, that means that 1,410,000 Americans have died due to "lack of health care" in America. Can anyone name ONE ? Just ONE ? Over a million dead Americans. Who are they ? Logic dictates this number is a fraud. Question authority.

  • These two went and tingled each others legs after the shw!

  • Do you think the Republicans, Bush Cheney, knew the Constitution when they endorsed torture?

    I don't think so.

  • I agree. And do you think Obama knew the constitution when he ran for president after admitting he was born in Kenya back in 2004 when running for the Illinois senate?

    I think he did.

  • Need I remind everyone that this is the man who compared "the health care crisis" to the holocaust ? That's right...... the lack of government provided health insurance compared to the systematic murder of millions of jews by Adolph Hitler. Can anyone justify this statement ?

  • can anyone still justify not knowing that Hitler´s firs name was Adolf and not Adolph

  • Easily caesarhauntsbrutus by definition:

    holocaust |ˈhäləˌkôst; ˈhōlə-|

    noun

    1 destruction or slaughter on a mass scale, esp. caused by fire or nuclear war : a nuclear holocaust | the threat of imminent holocaust.

    The fact that the word has become associated with one event on recent years does not change its meaning. 47,000 people dieing every year from lack of health care would also qualify as a holocaust.

  • Why do you believe that 47,000 people die each year die from lack of health care in America ? Because Alan Grayson says so ? Who are these people ? Where did that number come from ? America is doomed if people don't start pulling their heads out of their asses and question the "facts" that people in power are pushing on us. Alan Grayson is a disgrace to the Congress !

  • That number came from a harvard study and was published in a peer reviewed science journal. Any questions left?

  • the data was collected by the Centers of Disease Control and Prevention the author of the study is Andrew Wilper, M.D., who currently teaches at the University of Washington School of Medicine. The study was published by the American Journal of Public Health.

  • "America is doomed if people don't start pulling their heads out of their asses and" answer their own questions... because it took me what a minute with google to find out ? okay I knew beforehand because I listend to Graysons whole statement!

  • A few minutes ago, I asked someone to NAME ONE of these 47,000 Americans who died last year due to "lack of health care". If you're thirty years old that's 1,410,000 dead Americans. Please name ONE. Logic dictates this number is made up to justify government health care. How many Americans will die with this wonderful government system ? I guess none.

  • Thats wrongly assuming that this number is/was constant. So your logic is simply flawed.

    And it is not an argument saying "1,410,000 dead in 30 years sounds soooooo big it must be false"

    Besides the number of people dying in traffic in the US just dropped under 40.000 per year in 2008 so ... NAME ONE or it didn't happen?

  • Many of us, including me, know people who have died in traffic accidents. Just check the obituaries for the names. The "fact" of 47,000 people dying each year due to "lack of health care" cannot be justified or proven, but is presented as a fact. As I stated, the fictitious number was extrapolated by ASSUMED percentages of risk. The number is being used to justify government health care. So I ask again, how many Americans will die with government health care ? I suppose, none.

  • "So I ask again, how many Americans will die with government health care ? I suppose, none." That doesn't cocern me...

    what does concern me is "As I stated, the fictitious number was extrapolated by ASSUMED percentages of risk." okay then I just quote the most "conservative studies" that estimated "only" 18.000 per year. It is not like they needed a big number and made it up! I know you can make up numbers with statistics but not in peer reviewed jurnals. and not in a harvard study.

  • A direct quote from Alan Grayson, "One hundred and twenty two Americans are dying every single day because they have no health care. That's the fact." This is what I'm arguing against. It is NOT a fact. It is a made up number based on extrapolations of percentages. I don't care if it's from Harvard or Yale or Princeton. It's a made up number presented as a fact. Wake up America ! You're being lied to.

  • The National Institute for Medicine estimates that 22,000 people die each year from lack of health care. A study out of Princeton estimates around 45,000. Obviously estimates can vary on what data you use and how the cuts are made, but a lot of Americans die directly because of our failed health care system. You can debate the exact number, but its a fact.

  • This my third attempt at this post caesarhauntsbrutus. Here are a few names listed on name the dead web site You can also download the study there.

    Delores Shepperson 66, Passaic, New Jersey, Richard Hurtz 45, Anchorage/ak, Ron Hills

    27, Portland, Oregon, Bernadine Jackson Bailey 58, Lorain, Ohio, Declan Haun 56, Washington, DC.

    Why would anyone justify government health care when it's not on the table? it is a fear mongering non issue. You are a ranting fundamentalist who has no logic.

  • That's hilarious !!! You cite the names from idiot congressman Alan Grayson's website who have supposedly died from lack of government health care. Five in total. I guess with 122 dying each day, he should have no trouble at all filling up the list. (That's perfectly logical, isn't it ?) Let me know when it reaches 45,000. OK ?

  • Typical Archie Bunker type reaction caesarhauntsbrutus but not unexpected. I give you what you ask for, ridiculous as it was, and you simply deny it. You ask for one name and I gave five that were posted by their families. You can' effectively refute it, insignificant as it is. Meanwhile you have yet to effectively refute a Harvard Medical Study either..

    You still haven't answered my question about government health care.

    I have grandchildren who debate better than you.

  • Your FIVE names given from a supposed list of 45,000 who died last year because of lack of Obamacare is insignificant compared to the "facts" given by Congressman Grayson. I was wondering, "Easymike", when you would resort to childish name calling like Alan Grayson. I thought liberals like you were supposed to be so tolerant of others. I guess that's just a facade. Liberals are the most intolerant and hateful bunch I have ever seen. Don't believe me? Just listen to Alan Grayson. What a joke !

  • I am not interested in your baseless emotional reactions to my posts caesarhauntsbrutus. You asked for facts and I gave them to you. If you can't counter with facts STFU.

  • Easymike, I have tried to have an intelligent debate with you, but it's obvious you are not smart enough. Keep drinking your kool-aid, just like the idiot Grayson. Hopefully one day you will find your socialist utopia. How about Cuba ? Good luck with that. I have given you many facts, which you choose to ignore. So, why don't you STFU and pull your head out of your socialist ass, you stupid moron. Thanks !

  • Whining about how you feel about Grayson, calling him an idiot, making false assumptions about socialism, asking stupid questions about Cuba and calling me a moron is NOT intelligent caesarhauntsbrutus .

    You said that you did not believe the number of dead because of lack of insurance, I give you a Harvard study, you ask for the name of 1 person who died I ga
