Hey but who cares if you need that money for books, or erasers, or pencils who cares. Spread the wealth. Those children could starve if you don't give em your money. And by the way. Let me spend your money cuz you don't know how to spend it yourself. And don't worry about the cost either. I'll just take all your money and use it to pay for it all. Maybe I'll even pull a couple billion quarters out of thin air. Don't worry. You can trust me. I borrowed it. Sound similar.

STEEEVVYZ The thing is you're right. You will be able to keep the insurance you have. But only for five years. Then after that you will be forced to buy the governments version. On private companies, Obama has said publicly that he will be trying to eliminate private health insurance. And on paying for other peoples health care. If you believe in that then why don't you just start paying for other kids school lunches. That's fair. There are millions of starving kids around the world.

It took Bush 6 years to become a lame duck... It's only taken Obama 100 days. What a disaster he has been to America's image and overall wellbeing. Down with the Dem's in 2010 if America truly wants to stop him and his idiotic antics.

ROMNEY FOR 2012!!!!!

No doubt that Romney needs to run for president again in 2012! He is so intelligent, articulate, and always delivers with much power and honesty. ROMNEY 2012!

PUBLIC OPTION !is the best but if you dont like it just buy something else.. there will always be private companys to go to...this is only for the uninsured and those who want it...I DONT UNDERSTAND WHY PEOPLE THINK THIS WILL LIMIT CHOICE? RIGHT NOW 47 MILLION PEOPLE HAVE NO CHOICE THEY HAVE NO HEALTHCARE AND YOU ARE PAYING THEIR WAY ALREADY!! AT LEAST WITH PUBLIC OPTION WE CAN PREVENT THESE PEOPLE FROM ENDING UP IN E.R. ..SUPPORT THE PUBLIC OPTION!!EITHER WAY WE WILL PAY WHY NOT GET BEST DEAL??

The medical insurance plan that is in place in Massachusetts is not true vision of what Romney had in mind. Because he had to fight against a highly democratic assembly, he had to compromise on some of his original plans. I lived in Massachusetts prior to Romney being governor and as a self employed person I had to shell out nearly $600/a month with a 3500 deductible. Massachusetts is a highly democratic, nearly socialistic state and is one of the worst states to run a company.

What Fannie Mae/Freddie Mac did to the housing industry, Soetoro Health Services will do to the healthcare industy..

Do NOT let these tyrants in congress continue to abuse their powers and spend with no regards.

Our founding fathers warned us all of these events!

People, it is so obvious-The Democrat Party DEPENDS on Big Govt and Big Govt DEPENDS on the Democrat Party.

Liberty and We The People are left at it's mercy!

Stop Soetoro, Pelosi, Reid, Waxman, Franks before its too late

he was not picked due to the same reason Palin was picked. Ass backward thinking that controlls the GOP, just like picking Michael Steel to lead because he was black to counter Obama. Thats how smart the Republican Party is.
