Bwahahahahahahahahaha…….Baaawhahahahahahahaha. What a absolute idiot.

kmichaels   July 21st, 2009 - 1:56 pm

Is ir not true that Obama has made a habit of signing bills that he had not read? Now his claim is that he wont sign a bill that goes against his beliefs. What a god damned idiot pathetic LIAR Obama has turned out to be. Only fools and evil self-serving people support this idiot.

kmichaels   July 21st, 2009 - 1:58 pm

OBAMA HOPES HE CAN CHANGE THE USA FROM A FREE COUNTRY TO A SOCIALISTIC FASCIST DICTATORSHIP WITH HIM AT THE HELM. Real Americans need to wake up and squash this god damned self-serving lying sos bug before he multiplies.

If this were a polygraph test, the needle would be doing the equivalent of a 7.0 earthquake on a seismograph.

I have to agree with kmichaels. If his statement wasn’t so pathetic and believable, I’d almost have to laugh, but sadly I’m only crying because of where this false prophet is taking our beloved country!

Wow, can you say OJ Simpson?

He called the caller back, and gave the caller the e-mail address of his team of economic advisors, seen below.

Obama Bin Lyin'   July 21st, 2009 - 2:21 pm

Well post the bill online for 5 days, like you said you would in your campaign, and we can all read the provisions.

We are all starting to see the man behind the curtain.

irishkay   July 21st, 2009 - 2:25 pm

What in the world did he mean when he said, “Let me speak for the Obama administration”!!! Whaat a turd, Memo to Obama, You ARE the Obama Administration, moron! Get familiar with the health plan that your trying to shove down everyone’s throat! If I have to shell out 1 RED CENT, IT COSTS ME MONEY.
AFTER TAXES, I OWE THE GOVERNMENT N-O-T-H-I-N-G! I will spend the REST of MY money on what I WANT to spend it on.

Jamal DeMofo   July 21st, 2009 - 2:26 pm

Obama walks into a bar with a parrott on his shoulder.
The bartender asks: “Where’d ya get that, I’d love one?”
The parrott says:”Kenya, there’s millions of them just lying around doing nothing.”

Jamal DeMofo   July 21st, 2009 - 2:38 pm

Obama walks into a bar with a giant lizard on his shoulders.
The bartender says:”Hey, those things are slimy, smelly and carry tons of diseases.”
The lizard says:”I know, and they’re f*cking liars too. This one keeps telling me he’s President.”

Eddie   July 21st, 2009 - 2:52 pm

DeMofo, you’re killin’me!! I love ‘em.

Anyway, all I was gonna say in addition to the great entries in this thread is how the hell can you approve something you can’t even comment on? The Libs are so hell bent on getting their agenda and shoving it down the throats of the American people, they could care less. Let’s remember this when our Senators and Reps start running for re-election. It’s a start but we need to get control of this runaway train before it hits the station!

doogle   July 21st, 2009 - 2:55 pm

If Obama’s Healthcare Reform is the best thing since sliced bread, then why isn’t it mandatory that
the three (Executive, Legislative, Judicial) branches of our government have the same governmental
coverage that’ll be used by our citizens…………

Healthcare and Social Security will never get fixed until our government is put under the same
system that covers our citizens…………

BTW………..DOES ANYONE REALIZE THAT OBAMA TOOK MORE TIME DECIDING ON WHAT KIND OF DOG TO GET FOR
THE WHITE HOUSE THAN WILL BE SPENT ON THIS HEALTHCARE DEBATE?………..

PRIORITIES………..CHANGE………..YEAH RIGHT.

Jamal DeMofo   July 21st, 2009 - 4:05 pm

Details, schmeetails!! His economic advisors are handling all the details.

SirWiinston   July 21st, 2009 - 4:15 pm

Why am I not surprised.

Indeed, what would one expect from someone who thinks all he needs to do is show up, give a “spell-binding” speech — after all he is the gifted one — and his wishes will be granted. My God, people. This is a guy that has barely worked a day in his life; who’s major constituency is a bunch of bleeding heart liberals and welfare cheats; and you expect him to waste his time with details.

Here’s the Obama formula for governance: Write me a bill. I’ll sell it with my unparalleled rhetorical gifts and simultaneously issue an order to the Treasury to print more money. Next problem

SirWiinston   July 21st, 2009 - 4:26 pm

Can you imagine what would have happened if Bush had been so ill-prepared? The media coverage – especially at MSNBC – would have heaped blistering ridicule on him. The late night talk show people would have devoted full hour specials adding to the ridicule. Sarah Palin would have been raped and bludgeoned to death.

God, the hypocrisy!

Curmudgeon10   July 21st, 2009 - 4:28 pm

This story needs the widest possible dissemination. It is the best way I can think of to slow down this rush to socialism. Even its chief proponent, beyond a few bullets on a Powerpoint presentation Rahm shoved in front of him, has absolutely NO IDEA what the “reform” is he is pushing so aggressively.

The American people need to understand that underneath the razzle dazzle speeches, this man cares not one whit about actual health care reform. He just wants to control the economy. Period.

Eileen for Freedom/Liberty   July 21st, 2009 - 5:53 pm

Well there you go America…he hasn’t read the bill himself…let’s his staff do that for him.

Or maybe they didn’t teach him how to read “English” in that Indonesian Muslim School where he learned there were 57 American States…oh excuse me…50 American states!

Elementary school is so very important to forming a child’s thinking and his intelligence!

LAZIEST POTUS EVER!   July 21st, 2009 - 5:56 pm

This guy is treating the most important job in the world like a 9 to 3:30 summer internship…I guess Michelle had to do all the “real work” before he waltzed into the Senate. A reported asked him in the early spring, “What are you reading right now” …simple question. He answered with some novel. Great. Another reported asked him like three months later “What are reading right now Mr. President?” HE ANSWERS WITH THE SAME BOOK! THREE MONTHS LATER!!! He’s too lazy to read a book, why would he read legislation?

READ THE DAMNED THING   July 21st, 2009 - 6:29 pm

READ THE DAMNED BILL BEFORE YOU TRY TO PUSH IT ON AMERICA, ALL YOU IDIOTS IN WASHINGTON!

Is It ONE SIZE FITS ALL, or just MOST?   July 21st, 2009 - 6:32 pm

Question: Does the Health Care Reform Bill actually SPELL OUT that members of Congress & House & the Pres, etc., WILL BE EXEMPT FROM HAVING TO HAVE THAT GOVERNMENT-RUN HEALTH CARE? Can someone cite that reference, please?

Is the Bill supposed to be ONE SIZE FITS ALL, or just “THIS PLAN WILL BE IMPOSED ON MOST AMERICANS, LIKE IT OR NOT, BUT SOME OF US WON’T HAVE TO UNDERGO THIS CRAP”?

Just say NO, folks! Say it LOUD and say it OFTEN.

ed357   July 21st, 2009 - 8:14 pm

Tort Reform…………a critical part of Healthcare Reform………..In
other words, put caps on frivilous lawsuits and cap pain and suffering
claims………….

ANYONE WANT TO GUESS WHY TORT REFORM WILL NEVER HAPPEN?………….

COME ON YOU CAN SAY IT……………..

MOST CONGRESSMEN AND SENATORS ARE WHAT?………….

……………….LAWYERS……………………..

Hickok   July 21st, 2009 - 9:14 pm

Lady Liberty,
Those are 2 GREAT VIDEOS. That a$$clown Carnahan keeps a straight face, whilst the audience just laughs at his blatant lies. Healthcare Reform, like Obama, is going down the toilet without even having to flush.

Mike   July 21st, 2009 - 9:32 pm

I know how little my opinion, or any other American, to ” lawmakers ” but I wrote every lawmaker I could find in Iowa and demanded that every one of them that votes for that be required to participate in it. They won’t even consider that. They want to keep the premium health care that WE pay for. They don’t mind a bit taking a chance with our lives but they want the very best health care for them and their families.

Lady liberty   July 21st, 2009 - 9:38 pm

Hickok July 21st, 2009 – 9:14 pm
Thanks… I often wonder if anyone checks them out when I post

Mike July 21st, 2009 – 9:32 pm
Great Mike keep it up!

here is a helpful link click the name takes you right to their e-mail
http://www.conservativeusa.org/mega-cong.htm

tell them if they vote for this bill you will work very hard next election to make them unemployed that what I did…do it to all the reps in your state.

Joe   July 22nd, 2009 - 12:42 am

It makes you wonder if a Republic is the way to go – we the IDIOTS voted this retard into office – now we have to live with it for 4 years….. Can’t anyone run for office – promise you the world and then do whatever they want?! Hold this A$$ accountable – stop letting the media go into the White House press conferences with their pom poms and “I love Obama” T-Shorts tossing softballs and oooooing about how smotth he is. He doens’t have a clue about what he’s doing….he couldn’t run anything as a “community planner” – why do we think he can run the country with no talent – but he’s got a baratone voice that makes me swoon.

Dear Senator, Representative...   July 22nd, 2009 - 1:18 am

PLEASE COPY & PASTE THE FOLLOWING TEXT (between dotted lines), OR SIMILAR TEXT, AND SEND VIA EMAIL OR FAX TO YOUR SENATORS & REPS, TO PROTEST THE UNREALISTIC HEALTH & ENERGY BILLS. YOU CAN ALSO PRINT IT OUT AND SNAIL-MAIL IT. DO THIS ASAP!, IF YOU WANT TO PRESERVE OUR BELOVED COUNTRY!

===================================================================

Dear Legislator,

I am completely against the current ram-rodding through Congress of two very significant pieces of legislation: healthcare reform and energy/carbon reduction. I urge you to VOTE NO on both Bills. These issues are too important to be rushed through without a thorough discussion in the public realm. We need to get it RIGHT, not just get it done! Additionally, both of these bills appear to be way too complex and expensive (and with too much pork, especially the energy/carbon bill).

1. On healthcare: It’s one thing for the government to regulate private enterprise, another for the government to get into the healthcare business. We don’t need everybody in the country on Medicare! We must preserve private enterprise and try to reduce taxes, not increase them. And please: no illegal aliens on my tax nickel! Finally, any provision that would take benefits away from our SENIOR CITIZENS in order to try to finance this Health Bill must be removed, and any “END OF LIFE” COUNSELING that would try to pressure SENIORS into foregoing health treatment must be not only removed but strongly CONDEMNED. This Bill is a legislative nightmare that must not pass.

2. On energy/carbon: Where are the nuclear power plants, the obvious low-hanging fruit? Nuclear is not the dangerous proposition it perhaps once was (look at France, et al.). For starters, there are numerous approved sites that could be expanded or up-graded (or where this is no current plant at all). And I am highly dubious of carbon trading: From what I can see, it is not working in Europe (Scientific American). Also, the major emerging markets (China, India, etc.) are not going to participate anytime soon. Further, WHY PENALIZE HOMEOWNERS, many of whom are under-water with diminishing home values, with a scheme to force them to upgrade their houses before they can put them on the market for sale? This Bill is ill-conceived.

Please take seriously my concerns, as your response to the above will determine whether you will be removed or voted back into office next time around.

Thank you for your time in reading my concerns,

Sincerely,

An Irate American-Voter-Taxpayer
