Obama: "Don't Bet Against Us" On Health Care
"Don't bet against us. We are going to make this thing happen," Obama told a news conference intended to focus on his nominee for surgeon general, Dr.… » Full Story on Huffington Post
The reason healthcare costs are expensive to begin with is becuase programs like Medicaid & Medicare (government programs) do not pay on time, upfront or at all in some instances. Therefore, the private sector, has to make up the difference. B.O.'s health care plan would be nothing more than an expansion of the current Medicaid system costing tax payers even more. Exactly how much of this kind of crap are we going to swallow from the "Dictator Wannabe".
...ODUMB-ma wants it FAST and QUICK... maybe Michelle likes it that way...(((their business))) ... THESE ARE MY POCKETS (((NOW))) .......... ((((((gggggrrrrrrrrrrrr !!!!!!))))))
Actually, one reason why health care is so expensive is because too many people sue their doctors for everything, so the doctors have to carry ridiculously high amounts of insurance. And in order to recoup their costs they have to charge more. Second, equipment cost a lot. And third, insurance companies create this whole dynamic on how much medical care costs.
All I know is that our medical system needs a major overhaul!! I know too many people who can't get health insurance because they have a pre-existing condition. It's simply ridiculous!
Mrs swallows much more than she admits on a nightly basis. Careful with that bottom you are talking out of, it might make you bottom heavy in the room.
If I had a way to do it, I would bet everything against it. Nationalized Health Care will bankrupt the country.
People hate insurance companies because of service denials; when the Government starts denying coverage, the people will rage against the monster they created.
Government should stay out of this business.
Obamas wants all this passed before more people realize his policies are failures. That is why there are liberal media has articles whitewashing the so-called stimulus boondoggle. It is a failure but they do not want the public to realize until Obama can get the health care boondoggle passed.
Oh, yeah? How much is it going to cost me? Really, how much? Cause all Obama seems to be good for is 'tough' talk but no action or one contrary to what he says. He's just another corporate cheerleader and as bad as the one before and the one before that and the one before and...
GOD PLEASE HELP US!! NOW MORE THAN EVER WE NEED YOUR DIVINE INTERVENTION. PLEASE USE YOUR ALMIGHTY POWERS TO STOP THIS MADMAN FROM TURING US INTO THE 1950'S SOVIET UNION. THIS IS STILL "ONE NATION UNDER GOD", NOT UNDER OBAMBI. GIVES US THE FORESIGHT AND THE STRENGTH TO DO WHAT HAS TO BE AND MUST BE DONE. LORD WE NEED TO REMOVE THIS TYRANT FROM OFFICE AND HIS UNDERLINGS BEFORE IT IS REALLY TO LATE. GIVE US ONE VOICE TO BEGIN THE REVOLUTION THAT MUST COME. IF THAT VOICE IS MINE SO BE IT. STAND UP AMERICA AND FIGHT
Don't bet against organized crime - health insurance companies and their lobbyists (murderers - profits over life), wall street. MURDERS all of them.
NATIONALIZE HEALTH CARE!
This health care reform is such trash he has to force it down the Senates throat before it rots. Why the hurry there OB? What are you afraid the law makers will see in this reform bill and what if they stall? You seem to be threatening them, so what will you do? Have ACORN trash their political career? I hope to hell this stalls, so we can see this madman tick.
How about this Golder Oldie from the "AP Fact Checker" during the campaign.

Fact Check: The myths that wouldn't go away
Posted 11/3/2008 By Calvin Woodward, A P
McCain and running mate Sarah Palin, right down to the wire, persisted in distortions that were discredited long ago.
When a non-licensed plumber who owes back taxes and would get a tax cut under Obama is held out by McCain as a stand-in for average working people who should vote Republican, you know truth-telling took a back seat to myth-making.
On Monday, McCain gave a final airing to unsupported statements and half-baked truths at rallies such as one in Tampa, Fla., where he said:
"My friends, if I'm elected president, I WON'T SPEND NEARLY A TRILLION DOLLARS MORE OF YOUR MONEY. Sen. Obama WILL !
We're not betting, we're asking for the mercy of God to stop you and your most wicked plans for this country. However, God often allows people to suffer the consequences of their own doing to teach them a lesson and we shall surely suffer under you. You are not bringing a healing to this country but a rent and an infection. God deliver us from our oppressors!
There’s nothing like a little "Strong arming" from our scrawny, yet boisterous president. Aren't there laws against bullying?
Let the bashing from the uneducated rednecks, racists, nazi's and religious extremists begin.
I absolutely abhor this lying Communist sob that constantly keeps shoving his agenda down the American peoples throats just as Chavez does in Venezuela. In just 6 + short months he has changed the very face of America and has tried to disgraced us in the eyes of the world. I hope in 4 years it's not going to be to late to reverse everything this moron will does. I see that a lot of people that voted for him although a little late are now seeing the real self proclaimed Messiah. God Bless America !!! By the way,I won't insult my intelligence by replying to any a** kissing Obama maniac worshipper on this board.
A wise leader in tough times. America needs a charismatic, articulate, and intelligent president like Obama. Good job President.
Obama's assumptions: 1. If people have preventative health care they will use it - BS! Look how many people today have preventative care and ignore the advise of their doctors or don't bother getting checked. 2. If people are on a health plan they will not use the ERs and that will save money. BS! They will abuse the new rights they get. Just ask any dentist or doctor office that began to take patients covered with State paid assistance. They are the most demanding patients, they bring the entire family and trash the place, etc.
Obama, if you want to fix this you need to: 1. Fix medical malpractice and 2. Get rid of the problems with illegals! Those two things are PROVEN to work.
wow! a lot of hostility from the Right. ouch! that humiliating defeat must still sting a bit! we did it your way for twenty years since 1980. it's our turn. suck it!
Of course he wants the national socialized healthcare passed quickly because the economy is going to get so much worse and he wants it passed before no one supports this bill anymore. Currently you still have a large % of people in denial how bad this recession is and will be.
We have not seen how bad things will get. And when he says the rich will pay this bill, it means the small business man will pay, and what this then means that they will lay off employees and the economy will be even worth of. The big corporations that Obama is implying will be paying everyone healthcare is a joke.
Obama is purposely destrying this country, he hates America and is giving a lot of power to the Unions, they don't have to pay higher taxes for this planned socialized healthcare, and certainly the government employees are not in a nationalized system.
Does Obama think anything through? Also, who decides what is considered "affordable?" I believe in my house my husband and I are the only ones that decide what we can afford. I don't wait for some idiot to tell me I can or can't afford something.
The way this government is ran they will think spending your entire months income is affordable. I mean come on they spend trillions and trillions. They just use this lame excuse that we can't afford not too. GET REAL!!!
Let me guess this idiot is gonna get this through just like the stimulus. Leap before looking, that should be Obama's new motto!
Before we nationalize health care, I say we nationalize lawyers. While we are at it, let's create a government Czar.
I won't bet against it. The System gets what the System wants! This is why basic economics is not taught in high school.
NObama is the stupidest president our stupid society has ever elected. How shallow are we that we elect charisma over logic. McCain wasn't better, but I would rather have had the lesser of 2 evils. Socialized medicine is the dumbest idea ever! As was failing at bailing out the car industry. Anyone seen all the crisp $1 bills coming out? NObama money trickling its way down to us. Hospitals are REQUIRED to take anyone in. That is their policy. They cannot deny anyone, and shouldn't but, they shouldn't be entitled to the same as people who pay. (name brand vs. generic brand) Everyone deserves to be treated but not at the expense of people who already pay. I pay for myself and my 5 kids. I'm a single dad. Why should I have to pay for someone else? Categorize it, you call it discrimination. It's ok for some to discriminate but not others? (Auto Insurance companies Male vs. female) just one example
HE WILL FORCE IT UPON US, WHETHER WE LIKE IT OR NOT. MOST OF AMERICA SEES IT FOR WHAT IT IS, ANOTHER STEP TOWARD SOCIALISM.
HE WILL NOT LISTEN TO AMERICA!! HE IS OUT TO DESTROY US, AND EVER SO HAPPILY IN THE PROCESS. HE JUST LOVES STROLLING OUT TO THOSE CONFERENCES. ALL ARROGANT AND HAUGHTY. HE "WILL MAKE IT HAPPEN". HITLER INCARNATE!!!
This bill is not going through. His minions are just smart enough not to sabotage their own political careers for this clown. Do you think a man confident in his plan would constantly have to stick is face in front of a camera and make such comments??
“shows where obama's loyalties lie. ”
