    Why are you dummies going on and on about Republicans vs Democrats???

    Time to stop the party BS and vote PRINCIPLE before PARTY!

    If you haven’t figured out that BOTH parties are taking us for a ride then you don’t deserve to vote!!!!

    This Healthcare bill is a JOKE!!!!!!!!! They don’t care about THE PEOPLE. It’s full of CRAP and now all they want is the “WIN” of saying they did it and they will do it at ANY cost.

    And meanwhile…>WE THE PEOPLE get SCREWED!!!

    IF this was good for America…why are Health Ins companies’ stock jumping???

    bend over America…cause they aren’t even using KY

    if you go all the way back to january when his rating was 69% then you are correct. most follow more recent ratings. but on the bright side, the two most celebrated presidents who had similar ratings during their first year in office was clinton and regan….and they both went on to serve two terms. guess you know what that means;

    obama in 2012!

    Euphamistic titelature for an explosion of thievery. That was how Soetoro earned his first fortune as an attorney. Side by side with Frank, we’ll have a new Batman and Robben theivery team!

    Great entertainment as AG Holdren attempted to defend differential tiers of justice for terrorists. Wonder if the show trials are a smokescreen against the fallout of the Blagojevich proceedings featuring Lon Monk.

    Great time for Soetoro to resign due to health problems.

    @abovefilms

    uh,wrong. Rasmussen Reports surveys of likely voters January 23 v November 20 of this year:

    Presidential Approval Index: 29 v -14

    Strongly Approve: 45% v 27%
    Strongly Disapprove: 16% v 41%

    Total Approval: 62% v 47%
    Total Disapproval: 29% v 52%

    Soetoro leads the Democratic Party toward the 2010 Congressional election gallows. The New Jersey smackdown left him powerless

    Please resign, Mr. Soetoro.

    U.S.A. compared to “other” countries with Universal Health Care?
    ***TAX FREEDOM DAYS***
    (Date “you” PAY TAXES until you’re “TAX FREE”!)
    U.S.A…. April 13th

    UK……May 14th
    Canada…. June 6th
    Germany… July 8th
    France…… July 16th
    NOTE: numbers do NOT reflect the NATIONAL SALES TAX “they” pay in comparison to the U.S.A.
    US 8.25% (STATE)
    UK 17.5%, France 20% Canada 20% (total), Germany 23% (total)

  9. bigtex501 Says:

    DEMOCRAT’S PLANS….
    1. FORCE you to give up your FREEDOM by MANDATING health care insurance!
    2. TAXES (or fines) on those that fail to obtain “acceptable” coverage would range from $750 to $3,800 under the plan!
    3. Cut Medicare to the elderly and give “FREE” coverage to ILLEGAL ALIENS!
    4. INCREASE the DEFICIT by $9.8 TRILLION DOLLARS so by 2020, the deficit will be $22 TRILLION DOLLARS!
    5. Pass the bill quickly so that NO ONE knows what’s in the bill and NO ONE knows what they’re getting!

    Podesta… obamer’s chief executive advisor said
    “The administration should consider an “ADDITIONAL” TAX on consumption, such as a value-added tax (National Sales Tax) system similar to that in the European Union” (which averages 20% tax on goods).
    Advocates say NO other options will generate the “needed” money to avert fiscal calamity.
    20% VAT
    House.. $150,000 W/Tax $180,000
    Honda Accord.. $26,500 W/Tax $32,526 (TTL)
    Computer.. $1,500.00 W/Tax $1,800
    (Does NOT include STATE sales tax)

    ‘no more mamograms?’ lol. so a dial back means ‘no more?’ okay. and ‘no more cervical exams?’ that’s a blatant lie. you post no sources and give no insight. i wouldn’t be surprised if you say you got your ‘information’ from the tooth fairy.

  17. abovefilms Says:

    how in the world do YOU know if i ‘knew what i was supporting?’ you conservatives sure like to make things up as you go along. your assertions are baseless. i wont have higher taxes or higher healh ins premiums. energy costs are stable and products in the grocery store have risen annually for decades; to think it has something to do with pres. obama is rather silly. stop blindly following faux news. try reading for yourself from notable news agencies.

  18. PostalTubeAlex Says:

    Lol. If the 550 billion dollars bush spent on the iraq war that achieved nothing isn’t robbing the american people, i have no idea what is.

  19. landluvver Says:

    CMax, you underestimate the power of the sheep. People that look at results, policy, corruption and hypocrisy see how fake toxic this administration can see through the falacy of this charade, but those that watch CSNABCCBSNBCETC believe that this, the most inexperienced
    White House resident (sorry, forgot about the daughters and dogs) is the 2nd coming of Christ. They cant look past the love affair and see how they will be affected. Ignorance continues to prevail. Ignrance is bliss.

  20. CircusMaximus09 Says:

    Well, BHO is robbing the working Americans blind..He will NOT get re-elected

  21. CircusMaximus09 Says:

    Will Meeeshells’ old lady get the same care???

  22. aldenbuzz Says:

    I am seeing comments on this video which are lies to try to undermine healthcare reform.

  23. PostalTubeAlex Says:

    well palin is an idiot. i hope she runs for president in 2012, it’ll help obama being re-elected.

  25. bigtex501 Says:

    Poll Comparisons….
    Palin has HIGHER “approval” ratings than obamer!

    Sarah Palin.. 51% APPROVE 43% disapprove
    barrack hussain obamer… 46% approve 53% disapprove (AND a MINUS 14 approval index!)

    59% of Republican voters feel Sarah shares their values (prior to her release of her # 1 BEST SELLING book “Going Rogue”)!

    ONLY 33% APPROVE of House Leader Nancy Pelosi!
    ONLY 25% APPROVE of Senate Leader Harry Reid!

  26. bigtex501 Says:

    What COSTS are PELOSI & REID trying to hide???

    By law, the CBO must eventually score the private-sector mandates which will reveal the $1.5 TRILLION costs that Nancy Pelosi & Harry Reid are trying to hide.

    Under the ***FULL SCORE***, the CBO will present…
    NEW federal spending,
    NEW state spending, &
    NEW cost of the private-sector mandates!

    The bill’s ***TOTAL COST*** will be the sum of those three figures,
    A sum that will reveal the costs that the bills author’s have been hiding!
