Bill Maher: Republicans Lie to Sabotage Health Care Reform

[acchokiefan]

In real life, the workplace, their family life, and especially in church. REPUBLICANS LIE CONSTANTLY

[projectanimage]

Its not about republicans or democrats, or even if you vote or not. You are still going to have the same government whether you like it or not. You don't have a choice, and you don't have a democratic government. America has been in a state of national emergency since 1933. That means you are in a dictatorship that trys to look democratic but utimatley the president is the comander in chief.

[dalecampbl5]

thank you Mr. Maher. the GOP are nothing but a lie factory....those pieces of shit WMD party will lie through their teeth to cheat Americans out of their given right to a stable life and a middle class wage if you are willing to work hard...what these GOP wants is to oppress you with high health care costs, exorbitant educational expenses and low wages once you begin work...while the rich remains rich...these pigs ought to all die...too bad politicians can't get sued for willful misrep of facts

[pluto4847]

Lets face facts folks! Healthcare in the United States is too expensive. That's why I welcome any health reform. Any health reform is better than no health reform. Right now I need to get a Health Savings Account or I'm doomed. I can't afford the coverage those Insurance Companies are stealing from me, and I get nothing out of it. I'd rather have a Health Savings Plan so at least that money is mine. 

[MiracleMile90]

@pluto4847: But of course, big insurance and their paid-off politico buddies would rather whine and moan about 'ObamaCare', and 'RFID chips', and 'forced health insurance', when they themselves tried to sabotage the effort in various ways: Will the public option really hurt their bottom line so badly?

[TheTopBloke]

I thought this guy was dead.

[NFriction]

Hillarious! I love his comical statement, about 16sec in, where he says "Republicans have a more casual relationship with the truth"!

What isn't so funny is all the BS him & this idiotic woman are going on about, accusing the GOP of lying about what's in Obama care. How many morons did we hear back then saying how ridiculous it was for folks to claim the bill would allow federal funds to go to abortions?

SURPRISE, today, we find out that federal funds WILL BE covering elective abortions!

[demmmmm1]

@NFriction It doesn't cover abortions. But, I think you should consider the FACT that the RNC's own health plan covered elective abortions - until it became a part of the health care debate - then they changed it somehow.

[BlackRepublican2010]

@demmmmm1 It has the possibility to. An executive order can be revoked at any time.

[demmmmm1]

@BlackRepublican2010 I suppose, but I think it separates out public and private funds. And it doesn't dictate that the private insurers used have to cover abortion (although 80% of private insurers currently do).

Besides, abortion is legal, isn't it?

[bootylicification]

Obamacare was signed on March 2010 with 59% of the people disapproving according to a CNN poll. The CBO scored Obamacare on six years of coverage for 10 years of taxes, which is how the CBO showed the bill to be deficit neutral . It’s unconstitutional mandating all citizens to purchase health care. Even Pelosi said, “We have to pass the bill, so you can find out what is in it.” watch?v=KoE1R-xH5To It’s also meant to take over industry watch?v=p-bY92mcOdk

[demmmmm1]

@bootylicification If you don't know the "find out what's in it" context, or if you do and continue to blather on about it, you aren't serious about a thing.

The CBO scored the repeal bill. Said it'd cost $240 billion. How are Repubs going to pay for it? They don't care.

If Repubs want to take health coverage away from kids, re-widen the doughnut hole in Medicare, let insurance companies abuse customers...yeah, let's go back to THAT! It was SO good then...

[lerxt42]

I used to see a Dr back in the UK..no fee, prescriptopn costs about $8.00, I cant see a dr here as I have no insurance...when a patient walks into a Dr's office here they see dollar signs not a patient

[MasterAdam100]

The Republicans did lie to sabotage the Bill but the Dems rushed the Bill.

I support the Reform but the legeslation was just one big clusterfuck.

[MiracleMile90]

@MasterAdam100: I think the Dems f***ed up as well. And the President needs to stop being so darn timid, too. 

[MasterAdam100]

@MiracleMile90 Of course! It isn't even real Universal Healthcare like the Canadians and British have. It requires much more than a public option.

[chakrachaser]

@MiracleMile90 You have timid confused with patience, logic, wisdom, and awareness. This is no longer a country that worships General Custer's approach to Democracy

[MiracleMile90]

@chakrachaser: What're you talking about General Custer for?

[vidgam]

REPUBLICAN ARE THE DEVILS ADVOCATE.

[SourcesAreEverything]

Republicans are idiots.

[Nathaniel1415]

You say, Republicans are idiots...??? Do you know that THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA Is a REPUBLIC NATION!!! fool....read the Constitution.....there is no party system in this country only what you make of it. Obviously you want to separate the Nation than unify. God Bless America

[Orchard6773]

I never thought our government would fail us so badly. If you think corporate greed is behind many of our problems wait and see what the government has in store for us in the near future!

This is nothing but a greedy power grab by Pelosi, Reid, Obama and the other socialists. The pain these people are inflicting on this country is unreal - and all under the guise of "fairness" and helping people.

[boratalmaty]

We have an entire generation of American brats whose parents worked hard to pay for their every need, medical and otherwise, so they expect government to fill in as their parents when they grow up.

Insurance does not cure the sick, it only pays the fees. Money does not grow on trees, so if insurance is too expensive then cancel your cable TV subscriptions and stop being a consumerist glut and living it up with credit card debt. Start saving like the Chinese!

[boratalmaty]

That poll in the end means nothing if it does not show a comparison with what Democrats responded on the same survey. It's propaganda, not information!

[AliceInChains243]

Hahaha nope, it's just MSNBC. They work just the same as FOX does, just on the liberal side of the coin. While I find them both to be extremely entertaining media outlets, I personally do not go to either of them when I need information on a prevalent issue.

[Godz1Chozen]

Obama needs to go off on these lying bastards. They took The President of the United States, addressing our children, about staying in school, working hard, and never giving up, as a bad thing?! Wow! And we wonder why Japan is beating our kids? I agree with Marher, he should get Harry Truman on them.....his weakness is he is toooooo nice! But we still have three years left.....he will soon get fed up with the bs....and look out redumbs!!!

[Godz1Chozen]

Think about it: They want their country back! Obama supporters, we need to support our president, they are trying to demonize him, There is not one liberty that we as citizens had while bush was prez. that we do not have under President Obama.....they are sickening! Lets rally together again and knock the hell out of them with CHANGE!!

[Edgehead10075]

Obozo is an embarrassment.

[UNEASYMARKER]

@Godz1Chozen obama didnt even help america get 1 job u dimwitt

[Seeber420]

Yeah Bill is really in the tank for Obama, that's why hes criticizing him every Friday and saying hes not following through, sounds like a real kool-aid drinker to me.

[DAISEYBBGUN]

You people can't really be that stupid.

[DAISEYBBGUN]

I stick with my original comment. Maher, your a god damn idiot and in the tank for Obama. And micahgee, pay attention.

[blacknosugarnocream]

In that tank for Obama? The accusation has no validity because of the total absence of evidence supporting it and the abundance of evidence contradicting it.

[flacoromeo]

U dumb maher! U need Jesus.

[DAISEYBBGUN]

Maher you're a fucking idiot.

In the tank for Obama. You transparent bastard.

[micahgee]

in the tank for Obama by criticizing him?

[blacknosugarnocream]

That's typical of the anti-Obama crowd, micahgee. They make groundless accusations and when questioned, repeat the accusation.

They're frequently unable to support their position with a cogent argument and rely on dismissive quips to deflect attention from that fact.

[reddfactory]

I'm curious. Do republicans teach their children to lie, cheat and steal? Like if there is a dispute over a toy, do they teach their kid to share or just scream loud and lie? I wonder why they would tell their kid one thing and do another themselves.

[subarkin]

@reddfactory  They do not need to teach children to lie. It comes naturally. This is honesty and moral principles what requuires to be taught.

[ultrazproductions]

Republicans are negative, jealous, retards that shouldn't even exist.

[openyourmind1000]

And neither shoud democrats.

[waterdragonking]

bill maher can suck eggs

[SoulmightyOne]

Here's a challenge for all of you who don't believe out country has been taken from us. Before you respond to this comment, research the following things:

1. John P. Holdren and the book Ecoscience.

2. Maj. Gen. Albert Stubblebine and forced inoculations.

3. Alan Keyes warns about Obama.

4. David Icke - Stunning Investigative Reporting.

.. these are just a few I suggest you look up right here on youtube if you dare.

I challenge each of you to do this. If you refuse, you choose ignorance.

[bapyou]

Hey. I started watching that Alex Jones video about John P. Holdren, and I have to say it's a total joke. Challenged? Ignorance? There was nothing challenging in it. It was fear-mongering paranoia. And you can't be ignorant about paranoid stupidity. Thanks for the laugh, douchebag. Ha ha ha ha ha!

[SeekingStill]

Your last sentence confirms you are an ignorant yourself, but also a hypocrite. Our country will never be taken from us, if anybody ever tries to, the people will bring him/her down, but let me inform you, that those against the reform and against Obama do not speak for the rest!

[KTSamurai]

Where do you buy your tinfoil hats?

[teleutube]

Quote: "If you repeat enough lies, people will start believing in it "

[lezlitaz]

that works for both sides

[xylin3]

Except that Republicans make sure they always have just enough.

[FigurinItOut]

Bill Maher is great. He took the words right out of my mouth. I watched a woman at a town meeting "demanding her country back," and it was so over the top it was pathetic. It was as if she were auditioning for a new Francis Coppola movie!

Last I looked, Kim Jong il wasn't going to be visiting my town anytime soon. The only thing that's changed in this country is that whiny Republicans have gotten whinier. No answers from them, just finger-pointing and a VERY creepy paranoia.
