“Without a doubt.................Cheney wants anything, including America's failure,
and Americans suffering, anything that will afford him the opportunity to say,
"I TOLD YOU SO"

Cheney, wants one thing and one thing only, regardless of how many
Americans suffer in the process..................Cheney wants President Obama's
Administration to FAIL, and he will do ANYTHING TO ACHIEVE THAT GOAL!”

“rubberstamp, thank you, You've said it all in your very short
statement..............

Lawmakers represent their constituents.............OR THEY SHOULD.......
It is now up to their CONSTITUENTS................to keep their feet to the
fire............Folks, YOU have to GET INVOLVED.”

“"Dont get confused here, I'm not a republican nor trying to defend them. I just think there is a better way to go about this".

What "better" way do you see?

Right at this point in HCR, the only way to go would be reconciliation!

The Republicans have come right out and stated that they WILL BAND
TOGETHER, and they WILL defeat health care reform, their reasoning?

They are h**l bent to bring down the President, and they will stop at
nothing to make HCR President Obama's WATERLOO!!!!!!!!!

I cannot begin to understand how THE MAJORITY of Americans
can be HELD CAPTIVE by so few!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Why the U.S legislative system would allow for this absolute
irresponsibility displayed by Lawmakers (?) is a travesty in itself!

It is sad to say, but, until these lawmakers are held to a higher
standard, both morally, and ethically, millions of Americans will
continue to go BANKRUPT and in many many instances these
folks will continue to die by the thousands every single year,
Why? Because these greedy lawmakers refuse to truly represent
their constituents!

VERY, VERY, VERY SAD...........but oh SO TRUE!”

“I agree with you 100% about protesting in the millions, however it
would seem to me that instead of doing just that, folks are more
willing to just sit back and whine, and constantly blaming anyone
other than themselves...........and yes I said WHINE........this is all
that seems to be happening today........it's blame President Obama
blame the Blue Dogs, blame Joe Lieberman, blame Blanch Lincoln
blame the Republicans, blame Ben Nelson, the Blame Game just
keeps on going...................

You need ROBUST but RESPECTFUL protests. I thought that with
all the talk about freedom of speech, folks would get together by
the droves and take their protests all the way to the those lawmakers
who are blocking HCR simply because of greed..

Get in the lawmakers faces (always respectfully) protest in the front
(or back ) of their homes, and every other place where they work or
play!

Their are how many millions of Americans out of work today? I
think that unemployment is something like 10%, where are these
people? Why aren't they showing their support for a ROBUST HCR
It is time for these UNEMPLOYED TO DO THEIR PART! Get out
there and let the lawmakers know how you feel! Also send e-mails
to any and every lawmaker that you possible have access to!

Believe you me, Health Care Reform is down the tube without your
direct involvement!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”

“"There is no reference to the Holocaust either, but you don't need the Bible to tell you it was a sin against God and humanity".


THOU SHALT NOT KILL????????????

Don't you think that the above, specifically covers the "Holocaust" and depending on your definition of 'life" may also cover abortion?”

“THANK YOU!

I could not believe what I was seeing. I especially liked the part
where something like thirty policemen were needed to control
about thirty pro-health care reformers.........whereas only about
ten policemen were needed to control some two hundred tea-
baggers..........

What is wrong with this picture? One teabagger claimed that
their counter protesters were SHOUTING at them, even though
if you can do simple math............ you can tell that two hundred
teabaggers could, and were, shouting seven times louder
than their counter protesters? And by the way when did shouting
at rallies become illegal?

When Brad asked one of the thirty policemen who were
controlling the Pro-health care reformers, if these protesters
were behaving themselves, guess what his answer was.......

YES THEY WERE BEHAVING THEMSELVES!!!!!!!!! So why did
it take thirty policemen to control thirty pro-health protesters
WHO WERE BEHAVING THEMSELVES?

Thank you aview999!

Thank you Brad Blog!!!!!!

This video really opens one's eyes, about the tea-baggers and
their ridiculous claims about the tens of thousands of Americans
who are protesting health care reform!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”

“Jeanne Devon, I have two words for you!!!!!!!!!!!!

WOW! (and) THANKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”

“"What's wrong with this picture?"

One word...........................DOLLARS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

As long as lobbying is allowed, and the dollars continue to
line the pockets of politicians...................BOTH Democrats and
Republicans, these politicians WILL CONTINUE to go against
the wishes of the majority of Americans who want real health
care reform!!!!

Americans WILL CONTINUE to die and go bankrupt because
they cannot get good affordable health care, but hey, do you
think that the politicians care?

I think that until grassroots Americans get out there and START
DEMONSTRATING in full force, nothing is going to change!
You need to contact the lawmakers who are for health care reform,
and get them to help you start organizing rallies etc.

Don't let the teabaggers get the upper hand.........Please YOU
have to do YOUR PART, if you don't, guess what? Health Care
Reform will be back on the shelves for another fifty plus years,
and I don't even want to think about the millions of Americans
who will continue to die or go bankrupt over the next fifty years!

Americans YOU DESERVE affordable quality health care!!!!!!!!!

Yes you do, Yes you do, Yes you do!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

By the way, WHY is CNN constantly airing the words of
Republican Mark Kirk, who is, once again, scaring the
elderly by telling them that their Medicare will be
reduced??????? Taking advantage of, and scaring the
elderly like this, is absolutely IMMORAL........Please go
to CNN and tell them to stop airing Mark Kirk's lies,
one time is ENOUGH!!!!!!!!!”

“When will the US WAKE UP?

When, and ONLY WHEN, some semblance of a LAW is created
that will make it ILLEGAL for lawmakers to accept LOBBYING
MONEY to line their pockets, at the expense of their constituents!”

“Yessssssssssssssss! Yesssssssssssssssssssss!

Come on folks keep the momentum going! Keep those
phones, computers, and mailboxes HUMMMMMMING!

Yes you can! Yes you can! Yes you can!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

HEALTH CARE REFORM IS WORTH FIGHTING FOR,
and HEALTH CARE REFORM WITH A SOUND PUBLIC
OPTION IS WORTH FIGHTING FOR EVEN MORE!!!!!!!!

YES YOU CAN! YES YOU CAN! YES YOU CAN!!!!!!!!!!”

“"There will obviously be many who can't afford insurance premiums
regardless of the amount"

I may be wrong, but my understanding is that the government will
give some kind of tax credit for those who really cannot afford
insurance under Health Care Reform..............

"Or will my premiums continue to go up to pay for every sniffle or
cough treated by a doctor by those who are bewildered at the slightest
discomfort but primarily are seeking attention?

You seem to be talking about the status quo.................this is exactly
what is happening today! Do you want to change this by supporting
health care reform? Or are you willing to see premiums continue to
increase yearly by 10% 20% or even 40% ?”

“"Given Obama's record we will get something that costs us or our children more"

Ooooooooooooooo Kaaaaaaaaaaaa, now just what record are you talking about?

And should Health Care Reform become a reality, (boy oh boy, the U.S is really,
really falling behind the rest of the world in providing good health care for ALL
Americans, I think that currently they are 37Th in the world) and reduce the
exorbitant health care costs for ALL Americans, will you be willing to fore-go your
savings resulting from health care reform?

Yes? No?

Just wondering.............”

“You must surely be an Independent, and your comment is quite a bit
confusing.

If you really believe that members of the Democratic and the Republican
Parties are all crooks...................why in the name of heaven do you expect
us to believe that you Independents will be any different?”

“"I have not talked to any person who does not think that we need to do something about our health care system, they just do not like the bill that the Democrats(­Progressiv­es) tried to shove down our throats!"

First of all, which bill are you talking about? There are four tentative bills, none of which have been voted on, now please tell us what changes you would like to see made to the "status quo"!

By the way............do you remember when a foreign reporter on foreign soil, threw his shoes at President Bush? Do you remember how Americans kicked up a storm that rivaled Hurricane Katrina? The general consensus was, THE REPORTER SHOULD BE PUNISHED! No one should insult a PRESIDENT! The foreign reporter was charged with insulting a President and he was sentenced to TWO YEARS IN JAIL! (I believe that clemency was subsequently granted)

Now lo and behold, an AMERICAN CONGRESSMAN calls the PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA............A LIAR..............what an INSULT to the PRESIDENT........Why is this man not punished for INSULTING the PRESIDENT? Different STANDARD OF RESPECT for
the President from a foreign reporter on foreign soil, and Different STANDARD OF RESPECT
for the President from an AMERICAN CONGRESSMAN, while the President was ADDRESSING
CONGRESS, and the entire AMERICAN NATION?????????????

YIPES!!!!!!!!!!! SOMETHING IS SERIOUSLY WRONG HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”

“YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!

CNN JUST ANNOUNCED ON TV THAT ROB MILLER HAS PULLED IN OVER$1MILLION!!!!

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!”

“YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!

“YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!

SUPPORTERS...23,496

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!”

“You are quite right! This WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN ALLOWED in the
British Parliament, as a matter of FACT.........it WAS TRIED when
Margaret Thatcher was Prime Minister.........one MP accused her of
lying, he was IMMEDIATELY ESCORTED OUT OF THE ROOM, he
did it on another occasion, and again he was thrown out.....and had
to APOLOGIZE!

Why is this kind of DISRESPECT OF A PRESIDENT allowed to
happen in the U.S.A? And why is there no repercussions?”

“beckpod1

I hope and pray that THIS IS NOT WHAT AMERICA WANTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! PLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEASE!!”

“I REALLY HOPE that in this speech tonight, Americans realize, that their elected PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, went to bat, in NO UNCERTAIN TERMS, for those Americans who voted for CHANGE THAT WE CAN BELIEVE IN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

FOLKS, you asked him to fight for you, and in his AWE INSPIRING SPEECH TONIGHT you have to admit that he DID, please don't let anyone tell you any thing else!!!!!!!!!!!

Now please, you know that he CANNOT DO THIS BY HIMSELF, so get out there and get back to your GRASSROOTS MOVEMENT................MOVEON.ORG, and other AGENCIES...........have been doing some real work in their support of the President, but YOU HAVE TO DO YOUR PART TOO........So get out there and ORGANIZE your rallies, e-mails, letters, phone calls etc...........remember the coming town halls and rallies FOR HEALTH CARE REFORM.........DO YOUR PART.........SHOW YOUR PRESIDENT THAT YOU UNDERSTAND JUST HOW HARD HE IS FIGHTING FOR YOU........because believe you me, your PRESIDENT OBAMA, REALLY CARES ABOUT THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA AND ALL AMERICANS...........if you cannot see this something is very, very wrong!”

“IN.HU.MA.NE!

Regardless of what she was doing, (looking for answers or trying to educate)
This young woman deserved some human compassion, she did not deserve
the disrespect that Steele was so quick to bestow! This man (?) has some
very serious problems! I really hope that he is called out on this one by his
very own cronies! (repubs)”

“Right about NOW, LINCOLN IS TURNING OVER IN HIS GRAVE!”

“Now if only we can get LOU DOBBS sponsors to do the same, wouldn't
that be awesome?”

“Thank you huff post, for printing this article, it really is time that
Americans take the blindfolds off!

tks. huffpost”

“I don't agree with you that the clerks will simply throw the mail
away.................these clerks deserve a little more respect!

1 It is illegal to do as you suggest.

2 Just think of the amount of OVERTIME HOURS these
clerks will have to put in, in order to SORT AND DELIVER
THIS DELUGE OF MAIL.

3 Instead of getting annoyed, the clerks may welcome the
extra OVERTIME PAY!”
