    Health Care Reform

    What am I missing here? Let me get this straight.

    Obama's health care plan will be written by a committee whose head says he doesn't understand it, passed by a Congress that hasn't read it and whose members will be exempt from it, signed by a president who smokes, funded by a treasury chief who did not pay his taxes, overseen by a surgeon general who is obese, and financed by a country that is broke.

    What could possibly go wrong?

    Turn off fox news, tune out rush and hannity and give yourself a needed break. Hes going to lead like clinton did and provided much needed healthcare while creating jobs and reducing the deficit just like clinton did and you boys couldnt stand him either.

    If he leads like Clinton we are in big trouble,While Ol' Bill was not having sex with those women,he destroyed our military and CIA to the point that we were attacked on our own soil,he outsourced our jobs offshore starting the mess we are in now,gave nuclear capabilities to some of our worst enemies,let Bin Laden get away while he was pinpointed after attacking several embassies,signed in to effect bills that forced banks to loan to people who weren't able to pay such debts,thus creating the boat we now sit in.

    I never thought I'd quote Barney Frank but 'What planet are you living on."

    Obama reduce the deficit??? Do you not watch any news?? If CNN,ABC,NBC etc are telling you Obama has reduced the deficit, you need to see the true light son. I'll stop right there.

    It took clinton 8yrs to go from a deficit to a surplus. Obama has only been in office 7 months. It took GWB 2 years to run up a defecit( granted we were attacked) and handed Obama a struggling economy. What do you expect in 7 months?

    I've never in my life seen more expected from a POTUS after seven months than what the pubs expect from Obama, kinda boggles my mind.

    I guess when you stand and give speeches like he did and blame the world disarray on GW and say things like I'm gonna end the war in so many months, gonna close gitmo, I'm gonna take from the wealthy and give to the poor, I'm gonna reform healthcare, give tax breaks to americans. Make the sucessful pay for their sins of productivity. He had me so pumped up on change that I just wondered what he will do on day two??

    Looks like we don't get that stuff we just get changed over to a Trillion more dollars in debt. Thanks uncle barry....

    Re: Health Care Reform

    I'd take Bill Clinton in a heartbeat right now. He was smart enough to listen to reasonable people and lead from the center left. Compared to the current administration Clinton was conservative. I don't care who he was doing, he balanced the federal budget and I respect him for that. Anything the slickster's done wrong he's been punished enough for it...look who he's married to.

    I'll tell you what Mr. Obama's accomplished in his first 7 months. He's appointed the biggest joke for a cabinet in history, appointed a czar for anything you can name (Peter turned him down for OT Discussion Board Czar, said it took too much moderation), broken 90 per cent of his campaign promises, put every family in America a quarter mil in debt, and is trying to insert the federal government into every phase of our lives. Other than that he's done a superlative job.

    Haterade...cute. Typical liberal mentality. You disagree, you're a hater.

    When are you liberals going to stop using President Bush as an excuse for your party's ineptitude? Never mind we already know the answer to that one.

    Might I remind you GB had control with a majority in house and senate for 6 yrs. What did they bring us? A war we cant afford to win, uncontrolled spending, every nation on earth hating us, illegal wiretapping of you and me, tax cuts for the top 2 percent we cant afford, 1st 80 BILLION of bailouts, homeland security that couldnt defend louisiana, I could fill this page! Why would you accept this from his administration and whine about obamas, its the same policy as I see it?

    A fact that doesn't get much airtime: The Dems had the majority the last 2 years of Mr. Bush's presidency, that's when the economy began it's dive. What caused the actual collapse? Why your heroes Franks, Reid, Dodd, etc who forced the relaxation of mortgage lending rules on Fannie and Freddie.

    A war we can't afford to win? More like war we can't afford to lose. What's your plan? Sit back and wait for the next 9/11? Go over and apologize? Try to make fanatics who've been killing innocents for the last 50 years and want to see us dead like us better? The expenditures for the entire war pale in comparison to the money Mr. Obama's administration borrowed from China in 3 just months.

    Why do the libs hate Mr. Bush for the Iraqi war, and give President Obama a free pass for the war he's waging in Afghanistan now?

    Get this through your head - Mr. Bush gave tax cuts to every CONTRIBUTING American including the top 2%. Did you forget the tax rebates that came in the mail for you? No, he didn't dole out money to people who haven't even paid any taxes to begin with like the Dems do, and that's the way it ought to be.

    Homeland Security should be disbanded, one of President Bush's many mistakes. The first 80 billion bailout another.

    How can anyone in their right mind condone more control of our lives by the government? According to the President Medicare will fail soon. Social Security is headed for a cliff. Yet you're for the government taking control of health care. How blind can you be?

    I don't want the government taking my money or messing with my life anymore than is minimally necessary. I don't trust politicians of any party, particularly the Democrat party. I support Republicans because at least they say they're for smaller government and lower taxes.
