  • "The needs of the few outweigh the needs of the many" - Politicians version of Spock's famous and historical quote. I'd like to think that in nature, the Queen takes care of its' workers, just like in the insect world. However, in human life we are predominantly ruled by Kings, or some other form of alpha male. So the opposite may be true and in fact we are not taken care of by our Queen; We are screwed by our King(s). Such is life and the struggle will continue, that's for sure.

  • I also love your videos, Mr Boehner!

    You really show how WARPED and MISGUIDED the GOP is.

    Promoting the interests of the wealthy and powerful.

    Screwing over the working class, the poor, the sick, and the elderly.

    Yeah, we can't afoord ANYTHING---but tax cuts for the rich, right John.

    2.3 MILLION US JOBS were outsourced in the last 10 years, Mr. Boehner.

    If you really care about our jobs, will you BOYCOTT COMPANIES THAT OUTSOURCE AMERICAN JOBS ??? (hhmmm?)

    (Love to all).

  • Republicans have b lood on heir hands for the killings of over 5,000 american soldiers, and destroying american families defending the interest of defense contractors. The greedy mentalitiy of american millionares who have made their millions fleecing american taxpayers is taking this country down the toilet. And taking their jobs overseas where they can pay misarable wages and all that with the blessing of idiot/religious fanatics.

  • I don't listen to this cry baby. But I would like to tell this hypocrite/moron that health care is a right and not a privilege all over the world except in this country. And I would also like to tell him that hes is supposed to be working for the people that elected him and not the large corporations that paid his political campaingn. Any shithead can be a successful politician running as a republican. They don't have any ideas becuse they're a bunch of thieves.

  • @DonCocales2008 Please show us where it is stated in the constitution.

  • @DonCocales2008 Do you even live in the US?

  • John, good point about Freedom! We should all revisit our unalienable Rights. When these Rights are viewed through the prism of science (see my channel video), one will find they apply to all Life, from bacteria to humans, and Social systems, including Charles Darwin’s research; as in some Grand Unification principle for all Living-systems. Most understand the Laws of Nature trumps mortals in power; a new understanding of these Rights may help make this world a better place to live.

  • @fasfsdfasd Those are my favorite.

  • drug compnies lie, insurance industry has bought all the congress. don't waste time listening to these guys. politicians are either foxes or cayotes they are after us chicken, some body has said that. I can say they are wired very diferently. They have no empathy . I still haven't seen one. I thought Carter was , Denis Kucinitch may be a few exceptions.

  • Health care reality Insurance companies and drug companies rob all Americans, congress even the President has to go along with the owners of these establishments. They sell one months drug for 900$. Read Marcia Ingals book on big pharma . We will be under chinese in 2020 . Health care system is a big joke.Congress heartlessguys and girls and All politicians know this .They love to decieve all and future of this nation. All poor who go to Washington ,join the club.

  • Wow, he needs to lay off the tanning beds. His face looks like leather.

  • POTUS: Mr Speaker, would you join me on air force one to attend the Memorial?

    HELL NO I CANT

    the theme is going to be putting our political differences aside for ONE NIGHT for the good of the country. will you attend?

    HELL NO I CANT

    But surely honoring one of your own colleagues laying in a coma in Tucson is more important than a cocktail party? can you change your plans?

    HELL NO I CANT

    HELL NO I CANT

    WHAT AN ASSHOLE

  • BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO THIS MAN BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOO

  • Can't even name one program that he would cut. Hypocrisy.

  • Any shithead running as a republican can become a successful politician. Republicans are nothing but thieves.

  • @DonCocales2008 Thank Heavens we have all this angelically transcendent enlightenment -Democrats- bring to "public service", huh.

    Politicians are Politicians. Swallowing that one's a safer bet then another is play the game of -both- sides.

  • It's very disheartening that he was re-elected in the 8th District of Ohio by such a majority.  There are some seriously ignorant and gullible people in southwest Ohio.

  • if you believe that people should have freedom of choice in healthcare and that government shouldn't choose it for them, does that mean you're against medicare Mr. Boehner?

  • and what about the Patriot Act? Did the congressmen read that atrocious and long bill before they passed it?

  • Comment removed

  • yeah red neck is that what you teach yo kids to hate the less unfortinate you rotten bastard ,bet you and those twisted gop bastards knewq about what chenny was involed in stealing 180 milliom dollars dont you,they should put that old bastard under the cell,gop teach thier kids to hate like them calling people niggers and animals and starving poor children ,this bonner is an ass rich hole who only defends the rich cause he wants to run for president too ,and need the rich bastards

  • Corporate lackey.

  • hey john you had better impeach obama the kenyan muslim fraudulent BC.

  • Hey Boehner, so you're serious about cutting discretionary spending? Why don't you start by giving up your taxpayer-funded health insurance benefits?

  • Boehner is awesome...he rocks and kicks ass....kicks BO's ass big time....as well as Pelosi !!! Rock on.....Army STrong.....Hooah !!!....Goodbye BO !!

  • why do the republicans hate communitys so much?

  • I look forward to Boehner becoming speaker of the house. Honestly, I'm glad a good ol American boy such as him will be back. Saying I'm not comfortable with what we currently have in power is an understatement. Like many other people, I not only disagree with the democrats polices, I feel no connection with them on a more personal level. I grew up looking up to men like Boehner and I'm glad his stock is returning.

  • I don't trust Boehner. I heard he was a pumpkin.

  • the top 25% of americans own 87% of the wealth. the remaining 75% of us share 13% of the wealth. But those rich people pay half of the taxes so republicans want to give them tax breaks. shouldnt they pay 87% of the taxes.

  • All I have to say is Fuck You, John Boehner. You give all republicans a bad name by being the most bought out of any other politician, except maybe Joe Lieberman.

  • Real liberals don't want to "mandate" coverage, they want to give people a real public option. Liberals who voted against the public options are DINOs and complete scum.

  • there is already a 72 hour reading period ... this man is a fraud with the same old ideas

  • It is obvious that he thinks a spray on tan is a God-given right.

  • Lying sack of cow manure. If you believe him, I feel so sorry for you. He is as FAKE as his tan. Call me when he has a good idea to get this country back on track. Until then, put him on mute. You will be better off!

  • Hey Boehner STFU you moron, You are un American

  • @DaveBpt it's unamerican to restrict his freedom of speech

  • What having the AMA not be the only organization allow to hand out doctor license. That should allow competition and by allowing more doctors to perform medicine.

  • BONER LOL

  • "republican health care proposal" oh really? Why now John? Answer that one.  Why now do you have a proposal? Why now in the 90's, or better yet, in the decade after where your party controlled congress and the white house for most of the decade? PPPPPPPlease...

  • Lord help us... I really believe that America is dumb enough to believe the drivel that just came out of this morons mouth. Really? Boehner? Palin? (insert your own republican). This is the intelligence we want to represent our Country? How soon we forget how we got into this complete meltdown of our Country!

  • Why do Republicans talk about "the government" as a bad thing? In a Democracy "the government" implements "the will of the majority." Conclusion: Republicans don't want to implement "the will of the majority." Republicans represent the interests of the rich and big business alone. Why do people vote for them? Bigotry.

  • @ast453000 America is not a Democracy. It's a Republic. Learn the difference. Your Conclusions are nothing more then stupidity and slander. Were are protected by laws from the will of the majority. Thats why you are not in jail right now. You are the minority stupid.

  • @cozyfoxstudio A 'Republic' is not a form of government. The word comes from the Latin "res publica", which only means "public thing". However, in modern times it has come to be associated with representative democracy. Re your second point: how do you think those laws were passed? They were passed by a majority of representatives who were elected by a majority, i.e. they were passed democratically. Please note that in USSR the people were also "protected by laws from the will of the majority".

  • @ast453000 By that logic a Democracy isn't a form of government either. There are a lot of definations. You found one to support your ideology. Congradulations. America has this thing called a constitution which has been trampled on by Progressive Republicans and Democrats who have misled the people for a long time. As for the USSR I guess those laws didnt protect the people from the minority as I fear is happening to America. I'm sticking with our founders.

  • @cozyfoxstudio Hi. Sorry, Democracy is a form of government. It comes from the Greek "demokratia" which means "rule of the people". It's not a matter of 'logic'; it's a matter of what these words mean. And there are not "a lot of definitions". It is possible to look these words up in a dictionary. I suggest the OED, but Webster's is fine too.

  • @ast453000 Get your empty head out of websters dictionary and into the real world where Logic, actions and behavior apply. Youre like a communist telling me to look up the defination of Communism and ignore all the dead bodies. You sound like an idiot. 'rule of people" means what? Throw out the bill of rights because 51% of people are on the payroll of the other 49.

  • @ast453000 We have a Republic not a Democracy!!!!! Rule of law not majority rule.

  • @mallensr Hi. A 'Republic' is not a form of government. The word comes from the Latin "res publica", which simply means "public thing." However, in modern times it has come to be associated with representative democracy. In particular, it does not mean "rule of law". Totalitarian states, like the former USSR also operated by "rule of law". The only difference is who decides what the laws are: the many (as in a democracy) or the few (as in an oligarchy, or dictatorship).

  • @ast453000 this is the pot calling the kettle black. Democrats have no will to implement "the will of the people" when it's not in their favor. Funny how the double standard always applies when it comes to left wing politics.

  • @ast453000 The United States is a constitutional republic.A democracy is 2 alligators and a chicken deciding who will be lunch.

  • Funny how John wants to hold accountable everyone except himself and the rest of the conservatives for the job THEY did in ruining our country.

    You removed this response I made. Are you a fascist? You can't take criticism?

  • He is a politician and his lips are moving, so you can reasonably assume that he is lying.

  • @SilverDawnBat Yeah, like most any Democrat ever tells the truth. Lying is a litmus test for the left. If they did tell the truth, regular Americans would string them up an let 'em twist in the wind.

  • i thought it was read as john boner, sorry not english speaker.

  • I have two words for you...HEALTHCARE BILL.

  • @BoomerNavy70 Wrong again, that's three words.

  • Now we all know the real reason Boehner opposed health care reform.............it was because of the 10% tax provision in the bill on tanning bed salons.

  • omfg. this is a joke, right?

  • Let the adults talk about this? This is the kind of thing that makes this country so screwed up, everyone wants to prohibit others from expressing themselves, slam others for their beliefs, and cut them down for freedom of speach. Well if we want change, COME HELP AMERICA GET ELECTED and listen to the people!

  • this new bill is great.

  • America voted for the the politician's in the House. It was the will of the people to place them in office to represent us and vote for us. Now the House has voted and passes Health Care Reform. It is nothing less than the will of the people.

  • it's the will of the majority. the majority voted for president obama. he campaigned on national healthcare. if people didn't want it, they wouldn't have voted for him.

  • @adamconcrete The polls show otherwise. Don't believe me? Wait til election time.

  • I have a question John. I am the guy who came up to when you and your wife were eating a couple weeks ago. Do you remember me? I want to know where you are tanning. You are so nice and golden brown and no matter how hard I try I can't seem to get the same glow.

  • Where do you eat? I'd like to ask you a few questions.

  • @IrrationalNow LOL! Lay out in the sun, that's if you have the time. HEHE!

  • Then READ THE DAMN BILL THEN!!

  • pigs get fed, hogs get slaughtered...no more 10 term tanning bed muther fuckers.

  • (thebuilder86) You are right. So, why don't we give the government the power to decide who lives and dies? So, think about this, my dear moron, YOU are alright now. But, when you get sixty, maybe fifty five-and you get sick-Here comes Dr, Kavorkan. So, it's a good life-so long as you stay young. But, you can do that-Can't you? Just like you'll never EVER get sick-will you? Go back to you coloring book and let the adults talk about this. And quit picking your nose and eating it . . .

  • @thebuilder86, keeping the poor people poor is a concept that only exists in the minds of people who think like you do. Conservatives want all people to improve their lot in life. Where we differ is that we feel that YOU and only YOU have the ability to do so. Take the initiative, make the right decisions, and improve yourself. You are empowered with all the tools you need to ensure your success. That is the conservative philosophy.

  • @truthinmidamerica

    Clean it up It's true we don't need this we are here for you. Say what you will, make a point. Use some facts. Dont make it personal.

  • @hho2day

    it's ok he caint help it. We all seen him,

  • Comment removed

  • If We Dont Facts:

    Up to 17 million more people will be uninsured by 2019

    Insurers can continue their massive and arbitrary premium rate increases †such as Anthem

    Blue Cross raising rates for customers in California by nearly 40%, and rates in Illinois going up by as much as 60%

    As many as 275,000 people could die prematurely over the next 10 years because they don't have health insurance

    The average family's health care costs will nearly double by 2020, from $13,000 to $24,000

  • @Truthinmidamerica The market is a freeloader, when companies drop certian coverage to make higher profits they take from the average worker along with higher food prices and gas prices and uility prices and so on. their paycheck diminishes to nothing. Who's the fucking freeloader now ! Open your eyes asshole !

  • I'm not a freeloader ! Explain to me how Obama caused inflation + 100% in one year ? when gas was +4$ gal. when Bush was president ! Stupid people like you ruin this country, because instead of trying to fix things you're the first to point fingers !

  • Nonsense ... scare tactics .... if the rates go up people "can join the State exchanges" - which will are likely to be closer to Medicare.

    Which has an overhead of 3%. vs "for profits" that have about 40%. Why would any sane people allow any [federally subsidized, monopoly] corporation "to jeopardize their lives", any way ?

  • Under Presidents Plan Facts: If you're uninsured, you could receive a tax credit to help pay for coverage if needed †part of the largest middle class tax cut for health care in history

    Even if you currently have health insurance, there will be new protections from insurance company abuses, and tax credits will make coverage more affordable

    You will never be denied coverage because of pre-existing conditions

    You will never again be hit with arbitrary health insurance premium hikes

  • Under President Plan Facts:

    If you have health insurance through your employer and you like your plan, you can keep it

    If you're a small business owner, you'll receive new tax credits that make it easier for you to provide coverage for employees if you choose to do so

    If you have Medicare, the President's plan guarantees that your benefits will not be cut, and the Medicare Trust Fund will be extended for more than 9 years

  • adamconcret - well done .... vs ... the lies still being spread even by Rep. Boehner - euthanize your grandma outlaw private insurance to implement rationing plotting to cut Medicare benefits will bankrupt America reconciliation nuclear option slaughter [Self-executing rule] no mammograms until age 50 abortion in the bill would limit or terminate Tricare for Life
  • So this morning Rush Limbaugh says: "If Healthcare reform passes he is moving out of the country to Costa Rica. The god damn fool doesn't even know that Costa Rica has socialized medicine...LOL.

    I mean, how many times do the Conservatives have to embarrass themselves before they admit that they are getting their asses to them.

    The religous right wing nut jobs better understand something...YOU NO LONGER HAVE CONTROL. JERRY FALWELL IS DEAD and PAT ROBERTSON HAS GONE INSANE.

  • Bullshit questions, bullshit answers!

    Gay!!

  • Forty years pass and we haven't done a thing. Lets Start Over, Lets Start Over. We still don't know if insurance is to blame. Lets Start Over, Lets Start Over. We like what we have and you can't have the same. Lets Start

    Over, Lets Start Over. When you can no longer run and start to feel the pain, Lets Start Over, Lets Start Over.

    The Majority Rules, Dinner is served, now OPEN WIDE.

  • All right for those of you that did not see all of the Bipartisan Meeting on Health Care Reform. I'll save you time.

    We make more money but our best ideas come from you. Lets Start Over,

    Lets start Over. The truth is out comprehensive not our thing. Lets Start Over, Lets Start Over. This is too big; it wont fit in our brains, Lets Start Over, Lets Start Over. We can only take one step at a time. Lets Start Over, Lets Start Over.

  • The Republicans are finally getting smart.

    This morning it was reported that they want to put a muzzle on Dick Cheney's daughter and shut her the hell up.

    It was also reported that a number of high level contributors to the Republican Party are pulling out because they can not stand the Tea Baggers dressing Obama up like the Joker or covering his image with horse shit. He is still the President.

    I guess its coming back to bite the Republicans right in the horses ass. No pun intended.

  • Sen. Dick Durbin speaking at the Bipartisan Meeting on Health Reform: Speaking of the Federal Employees Health Benefit Program: He goes on to say talking to the Congressman, Senators and Federal Employees: If you think its a socialists plot and its wrong for goodness sake drop out of the Federal Employees Health Benefit Program

  • Sen. Dick Durbin speaking at the Bipartisan Meeting on Health Reform: Speaking of the Federal Employees Health Benefit Program: But if you think its good enough for your family, shouldnt our health insurance be good enough for the rest of America He made these remarks because the Republican party does not want America to have the Federal Government control minimum standards in the health insurance industry.

  • at least she got put on a list, some people in america die without ever knowing what is killing them. AMERICA THE RICHEST COUNTRY IN THE WORLD!! if canadians put u on a list, america has to step up their game. Profiting (to the extreme that insurance companies do) from people getting sick is completely insane.

  • @granitlabor-Thanks for the comment of my flag. We are the concrete, we are the foundation, we are the backbone, we are what holds this country together. We are the middle class. We cannot be allowed into bankruptcy by the Health Care Industry. Apart from the morality of it all, we need the freedom to move about this nation to build businesses and move this country forward without the fear of losing our health care. Once that happens watch us grow.

  • Hi, I'm House Republican Leader John Boehner and my game plan is to stop doing my job because I hate black people, and a black man is my president. Just wanted to let you all know I'm getting paid to sit with my thumbs up my ass and have no plan whatsoever to do any actual work until this negro is gone.

    I'm John Boehner and I approve of this message.

  • The Republicans agree that CBO Congressional Budget Office is a legit unbiased referee in the accounting of the Health Care Bill. The CBO report on The Health Care Bill says the bills before us will reduce the federal deficit by over 100B in the first ten years and succeeding ten years by over a trillion dollars.

  • I lost count around 32 that the Republicans used the words Start Over

  • @granitelabor-58% Americans would be disappointed or angry if health care reform does not pass this year.60% of republican democrats and independents wants to reform the way health care works.

  • Granitelabo.

    America has a 10% unemp. rate.

    -

    Granitelabo- jobs are a bigger priority-

    Tell that to the 40,000 that will die without insurance. Bush pushed two humongous tax reductions through primarily for the wealthy, misrepresented as Jobs programs but did not tie one penny of it to hiring anyone, in America. Youll gave Bush everything he and lobbyists asked for; and now have to pay the piper for doing so !

  • -

    The modification of the bill/Law is because of the [all time high] historic Republican obstruction; nothing else.

    But you can get a straight-jacket now, since so many of you seem to need them ! And the insurance companies "can not deny you one" !

  • lol. you think you'll be labeled a 'criminal' if you don't get healthcare? wow. u need to educate yourself. you'll pay a fine for NOT having healthcare, but you aren't even required to have it. just pay the fine that will add up to the cost of healthcare for that year then you can go about your business. see how easy that works?

  • @abovefilms Stay the hell out of my life... see how easy that works?

    You and this Marxist administration has no business making me pay for anything I don't want... and fining me for not buy in, is CRIMINAL!

    If you mind your own business you won't be minding mine.

  • @granitelabor Okay, then your kids shouldn't go to public schools, you shouldn't get medicare, social security, or the right to use public highways and roads, since your so against paying for anything.

  • @clarko95 Public schools suck. They teach kids what to think not how to think. Medicare and SS are broken and bankrupt and probably won't be in their present form when I'm eligible. Yeah, government runs things great don't they?

    It's funny; people got along fine for 150 years in this country without all these entitlement programs. Why are we such dependent wimps today?

  • The republicans had over 50 years to force reform but they wanted the status quo. Now that they are forced to the dinner table they want to start over with a new menu. The majority will rule.

  • The reconciliation procedure has been used 22 times, mostly by Republicans, since 1980 to pass major legislation. The American People do know up-or-down vote: Thumbs up, thumbs down, count 'em. Yesterday, President Obama called for an "up-or-down vote" on health care, without once mentioning "reconciliation." "The American people, all they want is an up or down vote," David Axelrod said earlier, adding a few other clear, slogany phrases like "let the majority rule and let's move on."

  • open wide granite......

  • Because it's true!

  • Majority is not socialist...unless you hate America. Passing a vote by the "majority" is not "shoving it down your throat."..unless you hate Democracy.

  • @milesy-Ive gone as far as I will with him.

  • that is a large milestone for you..he won't even know what milestone means.

  • @truthinmidamerica- You said nothing to do with Christianity so I quoted scripture. Ill leave the rest up to you and God. The parable of the ten virgins is to impress on them the need to live our lives in such a way that we are always ready for the Lord's return or for the end of our lives. When that end comes for me I will be prepared to answer to my part of the health care bill. This bill is going to pass. The debate is over. I know you will find peace with that. It will be OK.

  • @truthinmidamreica-"By this all will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another". The poor have medicaid. Were saving the middle class from becoming poor. They are the fabric of our foundation. The insurance companies and their lobbyist only care about is now. They are destroying the middle class for the sake of profit, stole money and then denied coverage forcing the middle class into bankruptcy.

  • Please define pre-emptive war doctrine as Constitutional

  • ahhh...no won width yur wopinion..waa waa goo goo gaa gaa..Consensus says YOU are the TROLL...THE IDIOT..THE MISANTHROPE....whiny bitches...ya'll are so boring.

  • Funny thing is historically 

    Truthinmidamerica sucks.

  • adam..this one is a total L O S E R..not even one to expend energy on. He is, the "r" word...just watch some of his vids, I guarantee you won't be able to get thru them because you won't know what he is saying...our little pal is a BIRTHER..shall I say more? Birther's are clear imbeciles. I'm pretty sure he doesn't even know how to spell VOTE...so the American People need not worry about him

  • ITV:^^^^fucking faggot.

  • John Boneher...The reason birds fly upside down over Ohio....because there ain't nothing worth Shitting on. One of the most economically stupid states in this nation. Led by Republicans for years because of the Farmers and the Johnson $ Johnson family in Cincinnati. Now they suffer and Boneher lays in the tanning booth. What a great argument in favor of abortion!

  • I agree 100%.

  • @

    harleymaster63 - What's that in your eye?

  • @truthinmidamerica- Ive read your posts and viewed your videos. How do you reconcile your Christian beliefs with not wanting affordable health care for all Americans? There is no one here that worships Obama. He is doing what is right. Dont let the politics of fear cloud your heart. He doesnt need affordable health care. Bill Gates Doesnt needs it. Warren Buffett doesnt need it. They are for it. I could go on forever. What would Jesus do?

  • Comment removed

  • Yep, Boner looks like he should be playing a part in " Six Feet Under"!

  • Read-Associated Press-Partisanship comes in waves at US turning Points-by Jim Abrams-It came out today. There is no stopping it it is going to happen it's going to pass. It will be OK. Start focusing on immigration now and decide how you want . Start voicing your ideas there and do it in a positive way. You lost this one keep moving forward.

  • Republicans hate Obama.

    They cannot identify with him because he is educated, well spoken and level headed.

    They need a drunken, illiterate hillbilly in the White House so they can feel good about one of their own making it to the big show.

    "Look at me! I is a trailer trash turd jus like Sara Palin!"

    Stupid fucks like this are just holding this country back.

  • Please define pre-emptive war doctrine as Constitutional

  • No.

  • Because it's not!

  • @milesy49 You crack me up—and so so right. Its going to pass and it is about time we realign the nation to think of the big picture and do whats right. Ive felt shame for our country long enough by how other countries take better care of their own. You cant take it with you but you can leave a better world behind.

  • Why don't you fucking cunts tell some little boy and his stressed out mother that she needs to pull herself up by her bootstraps and buy insurance for his treatment for cystic cibrosis. This bitch is whining about lawsuits: miserable, shameless devil! Fie on these greedy bastards. Free Market, drive down costs. Why don't they say what they really mean? Whoops, out of the gene pool, throw the weak into the mass graves. What if it was your precious baby? Heartbreaking.
