Naniel Schorr of NPR has strongly advocated for the abolition of Senate Filibuster. No one would have to pander to Joe Lieberman or Ben Nelson if the Filibuster was done away with.

last month's unemployment numbers dropped. That was the last indicator of the ecomomy that had not improved. He did stop the bleeding. He did make a decision on Afghan that wasn't easy and further alienated his base. You may not care what other countries think, but it matters. Too bad for you. And yes, the bill was passed, and more ppl will get HC, despite greedy asshole Repubs like you.

"The drive of the Rockefellers and their allies is to create a one-world government combining super capitalism and communism under the same tent, all under their control.... Do I mean conspiracy? Yes I do. I am convinced there is such a plot, international in scope, generations old in planning, and incredibly evil in intent." - Congressman Larry P. McDonald, 1976, killed in the Korean Airlines 747 that was shot down by the Soviets

Obama took an Oath to uphold the laws of the U.S. Constitution and The U.S. Bill of Rights. He lied to over 300 million of his constituents. He seeks to change our God given rights behind closed doors. Healthcare is not a right. Read the U.S Constitution and you'll clearly understand why. I want this administration kicked off OUR HILL!

It's not that Americans can't afford health insurance, it's that they can't afford everything they bought INSTEAD of health insurance! No self-respecting hardworking American supports this dictatorial mandate.

Firing squad for all those capitalists who make money (greed) from those who don't have in artificial constructs like insurance companies that get a cut (or feel entitled to so) when you have strep throat and have to see Dr. Mattingly. ...If the blood pours like it did in the last century, it could very well pour again when the middle class is no longer.
