Free the Doctors and Nurses!! Enslave the lawyers!!! Bahahahaha

Nationalize Lawyers. Every American deserves a right to the finest scum sucking ambulance chasing lawyer money can buy. It should not depend on the potential payout from suing deep pockets.

You have just seen and heard one slippery, slimy snake. Grab your wallets, and pray that you have your human liberty when this glib idiot is finished with you.

This attempt to nationaize healthcare has nothing to do with healthcare, its all about control and government controlling EVERY aspect of your life… WAKE UP!!!!!

LIES,LIES,LIES!!!Both the Press Corps and The Messiah are in together to bring us a Socialist Govt….Everything he has done proves that…and the State Media is this Lying Voice!
Now the Justice Dept is in with a Terrorist Muslim groups that was a non- indited co-conspirator in a terrorist case. The Muslim New Bl@ck Panther Party gets off from an automatic guilty as charged..for bully tactics at a Philly Polling station. ACORN is using Thugs to intimidate everyone and gets off from so many charges it’s crazy….Project Vote,Michele’s groups was under suspicion of using Tax money to train illegal aliens and ex-Cons…But the IG was fired before he could bring them down.
What Nixon did is baby stuff compared to this administration….and the Propaganda machine of NBC,MSNBC,CBS,ABC,CNN< The N.Y.Times and just about all the now (State)media.
Wake up…use your minds…Resist…Vote Pelosi,Reid,Kerry,Kennedy,Dodds,Frank,Durbin and every Dem out before it’s way too late …it may be too late now. Boycott all the State media outl;ets….don’t but their sponser’s products…Don’t buy anything from GE.or General Motors. Pray for America.

The notion that any private company can “compete” with a state-run-backed-funded organization is completely ABSURD!! What planet is this idiot from?

I like the idea Dave N had of nationalizing the lawyers, especially anyone who is a member of the American Trial Lawyers association, since they are big Obama fans & backers. If you did that — maybe they would back off from supporting the health care reform, Tarp funds etc. Let’s make them all feel the heat. You know what kind of health care we are going to end up with under this Obama plan– one that isn’t very good. Mr. Tapper was right on the money with his question and Mr. Arrogant didn’t like it and kept trying to belittle him– not a nice quality in a President.

IT'S ALL ABOUT CONTROL   June 23rd, 2009 - 6:24 pm

You got that right. How many Americans WILL WAKE UP in TIME and JUST SAY NO??

Don’t overlook the embarrassing link between NBC (MEDIA) & G.E. & COMPUTERIZING HEALTH RECORDS & NOW THE NEWS THAT G.E. IS OFFERING DOCTORS & HOSPS “INTEREST-FREE LOANS” TO BUY G.E. HEALTH-RECORD SYSTEMS, AFTER G.E. HAS REC’D *STIMULUS* FUNDS. HOW COZY!

IS THIS THE ‘CHANGE’ PEOPLE HAD IN MIND WHEN THEY VOTED FOR THIS GUY?

P.S. We will not be buying ANY G.E. products EVER again. (Their stuff is crap anyway.)

P.P.S. A great quote seen elsewhere:
“You know Chris Matthews should change his name to Joseph Goebbels because he is already acting like the Minister of Propaganda.”

P.P.P.S. Another great quote found elsewhere on this topic of an UNHOLY G.E. AGENDA:
“GE has donated big money to Obama and the Democrats because GE wants Obama to approve them for fat government contracts to develop a national electronic medical record database. Immelt has pandered to Obama and greased the Democrat decision-making machine with lots of political money because he sees big bucks on the horizon if GE gets these government contracts. He has instructed Zucker to lay off criticizing the Obama administration because Immelt doesn’t want NBC messing up the deal.”

tj, you nailed it. Here is a quote from Larry Kudlow along the same line:

But the Democratic agenda has never really been about just the uninsured. And it certainly hasn’t been about real cost-cutting or true market choice and competition. Nor has it been about tort/trial-lawyer reform. Instead, the Democratic agenda has always been a class-warfare, anti-business attack on private-sector doctors, hospitals, insurance firms, and drug companies. It’s all about control, knocking down their profits, and telling them what to do

Congratulations Jake on asking the hard questions on a continual basis. You and Major Garrett are the only media representatives with any backbone in those “so called” “MSM” events!

I always enjoyed reading your analysis during the campaign and could always count on an honest appraisal of what was going on in the campaigns!

Keep up the good work…someone has to report the truth and you are doing just that…thank you!

I don’t give a flying floop how hard the questions come from NBC,CNN,ABC,CBS,MSNBC, I will never ever watch their lying news. They got him elected and now we are all paying the price for this inexperience, throw the money to Acorn, socialist man. Our kids and grandkids will pay for this.
