  • C'mon America - wake up; just in case you have not noticed you are now in the twenty-first century. Universal health care is as much a citizens right as law and order and education. No-one - no family of a modern democratic society should have to face the possibility of bankruptcy because of illness or accident. Period.

  • If a member of Congress shouted "You Lie" to George W. Bush in the middle of an address, they would have been run out of office. There is no doubt. President Obama was classy to accept his apology and quickly put this issue to bed. Moving forward is the main ingredient to sustain progress. This applies to all parties of the political spectrum (Democrat, Republican, Independent, etc.)

  • I am sick and tired of weak economy, unemployment and big debts.

    It is time for Obama to go.

  • @awakeamericanow no, absolutely not, if that bill is passed, nobody will be a doctor, people will have to wait in line for a shitty doctor. if you believe that, then all homeless people have the right to a house, and we the people have to pay for it. it is not a way to improve america at all

  • ...pragmatism?

  • apology for what eff that he said what he thought dont we have freedom of speech or does that rule not apply he only said what everyone in that room was thinking

  • @awakeamericanow That is easier said then done, population has a lot to do with being able to have Universal health Care, the largest country with it atm is Brazil with 190 mil more then 130 mil less people to cover then in the US. It is alot easier to have perks like that when your a smaller country, but as you get up it is harder to be able to manage that. Only 1 of the top 5 countries in pop. have UHC and only 3 in the top 10. them 3 combined is around 461,590,000 America alone is 312,169,000

  • What the hell is this, its supposed to be politics . This is pathetic, not everyone is supposed to agree, watch 2mins in the UK parliament.

    Having to apologize that's fucking pathetic.

  • Agreed

  • @nyyankfan1203 LOL they throw shoes at bush instead

  • What happened to civility and less name calling? WOWWWWWW! Everything he is saying we don't need to do in this video he is now doing. Obama is a joke and a disgrace to the office of the presidency
