Comments on: Obama’s Plans For Healthcare In 2007

IN the “good news” column, it is slowly becoming apparent that even the moderate fence-sitters who voted for hope and change are now turning on Blammo. More words are coming out to the effect that they’re sick of his yammering and saying over and over that “this is gonna” and “this will”. They are becoming more aware that it’s all theories and speculation and that to implement something that mirrors the DMV and Medicare combined, that it’s not a really great idea…and not even a good one.

Blammo was intentionally vague on his platform about healthcare reform…and unfortunately, like sales tactics the world over, that vagueness allowed the listeners to believe what they wanted…that the plan would include their own concept of what “hope and change” meant.

So now that he is forced to leak more and more of the dastardly plan, the hope and change look-a-likes are taking the cold cream to it and uncovering the makeup.

Sad that it may actually happen, as Rush indicated today that there could be a public outcry of millions of people in the streets and the spiteful hippies in the government would still cram it down our throats. For, as Rush put it, “They don’t CARE about the people”.

I agree.

I wonder what the psychological toll will be on older folks. You have people in “assisted care” who in many cases are abandoned by their kids and grandkids. Now the government starts pestering them every so often about “end of life” care and maybe they begin to wonder if they are serving any real purpose here and maybe they should just get the inevitable overwith. I believe Obamacare could result in many perfectly healthy seniors taking their own lives out of a loss of hope and purpose.

When you have your own government suggesting that you aren’t worth devoting any resources to … it is going to be a heartbreaking experience for a lot of people.

“He could still do his “uh ba,um, hm, duh”

Great point! I’d vote for it! LOL

However, I do believe you may be wrong about the “duh”…It would more likely to come out as “gah”…LOL!

If everything you say contradicts something you said earlier, were you a liar then or are you a liar now.

Or are you a liar all the time.

“.. by the end of my first term as president.”

IF .. you make it to the end of your first term as president .. we need to make sure there’s no second term for the dillusional fool and his cronies!

Isn’t there some muslim custom, where a liar get’s his tongue cut out. He could still do his “uh ba,um, hm, duh” and have Barney spit out any necessary words the teleprompter calls for. A class act.

Video: Obama’s statements on single payer health care. Starts with recent claims by Obama he is not doing away with private insurance health care on 6/15/09 speech to the Medical Association,
3/24/07 statements found in the transcripts below. That he wants Universal health care, and to fade out private health care, force employers to pool into federal money.
2003 at Senator campaign, claims repeatedly he is an opponent for Universal “single payer” health care. Then Barney Franks recent claim we will see single payer health care.

(also I noticed in the vidio or transcript, Obama in used “basic” care, as Geithner now uses to describe the health care. Don’t forget the Obama’s debates with Hilary, and with John McCain, Obama was clear on universal health care. Denied arguements by McCain and Hillary (she wanted national)
