Obama’s Postponed Overseas Trip Now Cancelled as Health Battle Continues

AP: President Barack Obama has postponed his trip to Asia until June so he can stay in Washington for a possible Sunday vote on his health care overhaul plan. White House spokesman Robert Gibbs said Thursday the president is disappointed and regrets having to delay his visits to Indonesia and Australia but has told the leaders of those nations that health care is a crucial priority.

We voted for you Mr. President and we support healthcare. Let’s get it done.

Joker Face   March 18th, 2010 - 2:11 pm

This idiot thinks Health Care is the do all, end all. Well, it is going down in defeat. And Whatwhatwhat, the American people didn’t vote for a takeover of health care, they voted for Obunga’s promise to supply the exact same medical care Congress gets, not Frankenstein Death Care. What a troll!

arw   March 18th, 2010 - 2:11 pm

It’s a priority for this President to destroy the freedoms that this country has held dear for 234 years!!

MARCH TO WASHINGTON ON SUNDAY AND TELL THEM NO!!!

txmike   March 18th, 2010 - 2:15 pm

The only fools that support obamacare are those who believe that thay are getting something for free at the expense of others and the mouthbreathing demotar ds who are trying to buy vores. Disgusting

is it too soon to impeach?   March 18th, 2010 - 2:23 pm

George Bush + Jimmy Carter x Richard Nixon = Obama. What a disaster this guy is.

@the_new_media   March 18th, 2010 - 2:28 pm

The President knows how important it is to be in DC this weekend… so if you can get there, go and oppose this bill!!

Anyone that can go, should go to DC and make your voice of opposition heard.

H2K   March 18th, 2010 - 2:33 pm

Would anyone have the poll numbers that compare the percentage of TAXPAYERS that want government control of healthcare versus TAXPAYERS that want no government intervention?

I’m sure the non-productive sector is near 100% for this unconstitutional takeover.

Matt   March 18th, 2010 - 2:33 pm

This is less about healthcare and more about Obama not going where he is not wanted or loved.

wimperwimper   March 18th, 2010 - 2:34 pm

GOOD buffoon – your presence usually represents LOSING BECAUSE YOU ARE A LOSER. Election day cannot come too soon – vote all these RATS out and by a landslide – they still won’t understand it but that will be a start. WAKE UP AMERICA – OUR FREEDOMS ARE SLIPPING AWAY RIGHT UNDER OUR NOSES.

Watch this HEALTH CARE TAKEOVER BILL VIDEO,
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HcBaSP31Be8

Then, send the video to everyone that you know, and then all of you contact your Congressmen and women, with a copy of the video and demand that they watch it.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HcBaSP31Be8
and then DEMAND that they VOTE NO on anything that the people responsible for this bill ever try to force on us!
THE CREATORS AND SUPPORTERS OF THIS BILL ARE THE ENEMY OF THE AMERICAN PUBLIC, WITHIN OUR OWN GOVERNMENT!
ANYONE WHO HAS ALREADY VOTED YES FOR THIS HEALTH CARE TAKEOVER BILL SHOULD BE THROWN IN PRISON FOR TREASON AGAINST THE AMERICAN CITIZENS AND THE CONSTITUTION.

THE CREATORS, SUPPORTERS AND PROMOTERS OF THIS HEALTH CARE BILL ARE THE ENEMY OF THE AMERICAN PUBLIC, WITHIN OUR OWN GOVERNMENT!

ANYONE WHO HAS ALREADY VOTED YES FOR THIS HEALTH CARE TAKEOVER BILL SHOULD BE CHARGED WITH CONSPIRACY TO COMMIT TREASON AGAINST THE AMERICAN CITIZENS AND THE CONSTITUTION.
TAKE DOWN THEIR NAMES AND MAKE SURE TO NOTIFY YOUR NEW LAWMAKERS, AFTER THE NOVEMBER 2010 ELECTIONS, AND TELL YOUR NEW REPRESENTATIVES THAT YOU WANT THESE PEOPLE CHARGED FOR THEIR CRIMES AGAINST AMERICA AND PUNISHED TO THE FULL EXTENT OF THE LAW!

GOD BLESS AMERICA!

Tucker Carlson on Fox the other night said and I paraphrase, “Entitlements are narcotics and addictive. Democrats understand this and Republicans don’t. If this bill passes, after 5 years it won’t be able to be repealed.”

If this bill passes, in November we will need to vote in a 2/3 majority (against Obamacare) in both houses to override an Obama veto.

Army of Davids   March 18th, 2010 - 2:42 pm

Poison pill? Piss a liberal off….Reconciliation procedures may allow the health insurance companies to get out of covering pre-existing conditions.

Wonder if Michael Moore knows this yet?

OBAMA’S POSTPONED OVERSEAS TRIP NOW CANCELLED because of HEALTH BATTLE

Yeah, and after November you’ll have a lot fewer seats in the House and Senate too. Ya’ dim bulb!! LOL!

Okay.   March 18th, 2010 - 2:52 pm

Please he didn’t want to go to Indonesia because there were going to be protests AND the BIGGEST HORROR is that they took down his wittle statue.

Smoke in mirrors.

john   March 18th, 2010 - 2:59 pm

Obama won’t get better treatment there because they’re throwing shoes at posters with his face on them which is the worst muslim insult possible! Muslim Tea Partiers! Nobody likes this guy.

Eileen for Freedom/Liberty   March 18th, 2010 - 3:04 pm

America…the only reason he cancelled this trip…is because he is SCARED! He is scared to go home to the country where he grew up, where he learned the Koran and the love of Islam in the Islamic school. Where he heard the ’sweetest’ sounds of prayer being called to Mecca (5) times a day!

Did you see the protests in Indonesia against him? Did you see the gallons of their own blood being poured on the fence posts of the politicians offices?

Did you see that statue put up of him as a boy being taken down and hidden away from view?

They hate him in Indonesia…they recognize him for what he is…why is it that it is so hard for the deaf, dumb and blind in America to recognize the same!

Bilderberg Bush-Obama isn’t staying hope to fight for this ‘unconstitutional’ ‘government run’ healthcare…he is not going because he is scared to go home!

KEEP CALLING/EMAILING AND DO NOT GO THROUGH THE GENERAL SWITCHBOARD IN WASHINGTON TO TELL THEM WHAT YOU THINK!

IT WILL BE OVERLOADED AND YOU WILL NOT GET THROUGH!

Go here instead to get the numbers/emails of your State reps:

1. USA.gov
2. At top…click on ’site index’
3. At left…click on ‘federal government’
4. In middle…click on ‘legislative’
5. Pick Senate and then put in your state
6. Pick House and then put in your state

This is the only way for you to make an impact…not the switchboard!

————————————–

JUST EIGHT (8) MORE MONTHS TO “D” DAY II !

1. WE “THE PEOPLE” ARE INFORMED!
2. WE “THE PEOPLE” ARE INVOLVED!
3. WE “THE PEOPLE” ARE GETTING OUT THE VOTE!

ONE (1) SLUG DOWN…FIFTY-NINE (59) SLUGS TO GO – GUARANTEED!

IMPEACHMENT OR THE ‘ORIGINAL’ RECORDS OF BIRTH…IT IS JUST A MATTER OF TIME…AND 2010 WILL BE THE TIME!

myleftbrain   March 18th, 2010 - 3:08 pm

Who cares? All they have to do is look at previous video of the “President” bowing and apologizing to other world leaders knowing he intends to do that wherever he goes. That should suffice in lieu of an actual visit.

buford   March 18th, 2010 - 3:10 pm

Indonesia doesnt want him to visit so why play this dog and pony show. He is not wanted anywhere except at SEIU or Acorn. Home of his choosen people

SanFranciscoGo   March 18th, 2010 - 3:12 pm

We have so much transparency. The problem with the hbc is due to “Transparency”.

Thanks to “Transparency” every American can now clearly see, it is extremely transparent that we are being “railroaded”
by elected officials who want to ignore and are ignoring the Will of the Majority of Americans
And our Constitution as well.

Although, some of our Democrat friends, “know this truth to be self evident” they would still deem and “Slaughter” the truth into the darkness of night or a holiday weekend.

Please respect US and our Constitution, we would like to respect you as true Statesmen not something else.

brent   March 18th, 2010 - 3:12 pm

I see alot of foks say go to Washington and let your voice be heard? WHY? Obama doesnt care and neither does the media? Why waste time on something and never achieve anything? Someone answer that?

JD Mix   March 18th, 2010 - 3:21 pm

Obama snubs Indonesia, Australia, AND Guam TWICE – Cancels two state trips.
Obama snubs Dalai Lama – Sends him out the side door with the garbage.
Obama snubs British Prime Minister – No reception dinner, ditches Churchill bust, DVDs as state gifts…
Obama snubs Poland & Czechoslovakia – Scraps missile defense agreements to assuage Russians.
Obama snubs Israel – Admonishes longtime ally and coddles terrorist regimes.
Obama snubs majority of Americans opposed to his Health Care overhaul plan.

So much for “smarter diplomacy”

Tom   March 18th, 2010 - 3:22 pm

I’m not sure that they really wanted to see his clown a$$ anyway……

johne   March 18th, 2010 - 3:24 pm

Just a week ago this was such an important trip he had to go on. I guess a two month delay shows just how important it is. It was just a spring vacation for the kids, then that fell apart after people started to bitch and to keep face, he stated it was of such importance he was going on himself. What the real reason is he does not want the legislators to go home for the weekend so they will hear what the people really think about his health care. He will probably have every democrat over to the White House for beer and fried chicken and keep them there until its time to vote.

Just Asking   March 18th, 2010 - 3:26 pm

@whatwhatwhat 2.05pm

Is there not something wrong with the notion of a man stealing money from me in order to buy a vote from you?

ellie   March 18th, 2010 - 3:32 pm

Think of all the polar bears he saved by not flying in AF-1.

Chris   March 18th, 2010 - 3:45 pm

Hmmm let’s see: Obama and the Democrats will save 10s of thousands of americans from dying prematurely every year because they had no health insurance; save tens of thousands of americans from bankruptcy every year because their insurance providers refuse to pay for their full treatment; reduce the deficit by ~1.5 trillion dollars over two decades; prolong the viability of Medicare etc etc…….and you Republican neo-nazis/neo-confederates/neo-cons are so passionately outraged about all this???? This is so twisted, so EVIL of you.

If the bill passes, as it should, Obama will be remembered as one of our great presidents. Next on the agenda: reform of the discredited financial system that failed so catastrophically. Here again the Republicans are on the wrong side: protecting the selfish, corrupt, blood-sucking Wall Street bankers from being regulated by the democratically elected government.

How can anyone doubt that this is a battle between good and evil?

Lady liberty   March 18th, 2010 - 3:49 pm

I’m just jumping up & down with joy, that the BIG O has postponed his trip…That means a sure KISS OF DEATH for this health care scam…..when he shows up to support…everything dies on the vine LOL
So hopefully this will follow suit.
So get out the Jack Daniels & crack pipe MR Pres your going to need um!

John   March 18th, 2010 - 3:53 pm

What’s IMPORTANT to HIM is that HE gets the GLORY if the vote goes in “his” favor!!! What a selfish, insolent, childish man.

THE FINAL WORD, AGAIN   March 18th, 2010 - 4:07 pm

Whatwhatwhat March 18th, 2010 – 2:05 pm
We voted for you Mr. President and we support healthcare. Let’s get it done.

YAAAAAAAWWWWWWWN A YEAR AND COUNTING, YYYYYYYAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWNNNN

IS THIS AGAIN THE FINAL WORD ON BOBO CARE? YYYYYYYYYYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWWNNNNN

IDIOT!   March 18th, 2010 - 4:07 pm

Obama’s been ‘on a vacation since January 20th 2009!!

‘WE’, the citizens are supposed to give a rat’s azz about Obama going on vacation??????
Who give’s a flying fluck!

Mr. Obama, there are a lot of people out here that are on ‘permanent vacation’ because they have lost their job – there homes – their pensions – and when you get done with this unconstitutional crap, they won’t have ‘private’ health care, either!

You are ‘trying’ to destroy this nation – but WE are AMERICANS, AND WE WILL BE FREE!
When you finally get to go to Indonesia, STAY THERE!

bupalos   March 18th, 2010 - 4:09 pm

Ohhh. Whaaaaaa whaaaaaa I wants me my health insurance even though I gots laid off from my job and don’t be workin no more. Whaaaaaa, I can’t buy it myself kaus I is a lazy ass that be switchin jobs and dat bad ole insurance company don’t take no preexisting conditions like my diabetes I got from eatin potato chips and leukemia de young one got caus his mama smokin crack.

ginger   March 18th, 2010 - 4:21 pm

Poor baby, he hasn’t had a vacation since December and being president is Hard!

DrEdu   March 18th, 2010 - 4:57 pm

If Obama and Pelosi manage to ram this monstrosity on We The people, AGAINST the explicit will of The People, WE THE PEOPLE will make them remember who is the boss here.

YES MEANS YOU ARE OUT!

claspur   March 18th, 2010 - 4:57 pm

The people of Indoniesia don’t want him anyway…He isn’t a radical enough Muslim for them.
Besides,(ref:that comment during the taking-down of his boyhood-school statue row there..) He never did anything while He was here, except eat and poop.

irishkay   March 18th, 2010 - 5:34 pm

Until November comes, and we vote these treasonist b_astards out of office:

Everyone who still has a job, should go to their HR person, or payroll, and tell them to change your dependents to (9), that way they will not take ‘anything’ out for ‘taxes’. Why give them your hard earned money all year – wait til you file next year to adjust it! I’m sure you can set it aside to pay IRS in 2011 – but at least this way the ‘government’ won’t ‘play’ with it til next year! See how they like that! It’s called ‘civil protest’……..against a corrupt government!

BTW, we all might need the extra money..
