Universal health care will:
· likely cost taxpayers more than the projected $1.7 trillion, as is what occurred with Medicare and Medicaid;
· cause employers to pay their employees less money in order to finance the mandated coverage;
· be contradictory to itself, as evidenced by the 30,000 people being cut from Massachusetts universal coverage plan due to budget deficits;
· cause reduced health care quality when rationing becomes the means for lowering costs.

"The Obama plan would leave a third of those currently uninsured lacking coverage."
-Washington Post 6/9/07

-Wall Street Journal, 12/04/07
"Over all, the Obama-type plan would cost $4,400 per newly insured person, the Clinton-type plan only $2,700."

America is a free market society for the most part, although less and less with time. People making choices on their own creates the most wealth and prosperity. Read Wealth of Nations and you'll understand why a free people has major objections to government taking over anything that isn't absolutely necessary.

So we get two economy wreckers for the price of one? That's helpful.
Do you know how hard they pushed NAFTA through? Now we are screwed. And its a policy that was started by Papa Bush

May I remind you that win Bill was running for president he ran it as a "co-presidency". "Two for the price of one" was a popular slogan back then and it help him win the elecion with woman votes. He believes in her as well as returning the favor.

You're right waw1212... the media has always done this shite. Embarrassing and is why I don't watch their opinionated shows. Just give the facts and keep the opinions out of the reporting.
Sound bites... SOUND BITES
Did you see both debate/speech in their entirety or are you only judging this by Sound Bites?
He has been consistent on laying out a plans. Hillary hasn't been consistent at all.
She says we need to avoid confrontation with Iran and pull troops out of Iraq and she votes to name the Iranian Royal Guard a terrorist organization. Is that consistent?

No he isn't. i watched the full clip from the Clinton Campaign. I've also seen the footage they used to make it. Obama has said that he is a proponent of single payer healthcare (a great idea), but has decided to try and work with the employer based system we have been using for years. He's a thinking man, so it's not possible to reduce him to sound bites as the media and smear campaigns like to do.
