Lou Dobbs QUITS CNN (Video)

Lou Dobbs QUITS CNN (Video)

Commented Nov 12, 2009 at 21:52:16 in Media

“Lou Dobbs apparently has a driving desire to do more for the America he evidently loves, it may indeed be a question whether many as evident in posting here are worth the least of his efforts.

American Corp-Media has kept the best of these men and women closely restrained and censored from accomplishing what I imagine most desired deep inside, and deservedly these Corp-giants are seeing the derth of their despicable dissemination of worthless fluff, at best dis-information.

One day I hope to see citizen's of this nation wake up, seek truth, and do for a change what they foolishly believed could be done for them by others. Certainly we have a great abundance of the uninformed that slander those that try to help them toward this goal.”

“On finding a "pittance" that benefits the common American citizen within the "scams" now being put forth in a Corp-Run Congress Healthcare Bills, means absolutely nothing.

If Americans allow this "Scam" to become law, I can guarantee within short order, Corp-Greed will "make disappear" any 'pittance' you may find in the present Congress Healthcare Bill.

Do not allow yourself to be brainwashed into "something is better than nothing', because if you have watched your 'great deal phone company' deal's for more than a year, you will notice "creeping" cost's shortly but certainly bringing your phone bill BACK into "Scamming As Usual" cost.

This is not the time to make MORE concessions, right now you have been damned near bled dry, or have you forgotten what "Trickle Down" actually turned out to be... a bleeding to death.”

“I will accept nothing less than full "Single Payer Healthcare", that should in the long run reduce overall cost, and eliminate inequities built into both Straight Insurance scam, and Public Option scam's.

I see no possibility of the US Congress (now subservient to Corp & Insurance industries) providing anything near what is best for US citizens, so will join every group (actively) beginning Impeachment and replacement of our present Congress. This includes 'sell outs' such as Obama.

The only chance American citizens have of not seeing a dictatorship form in our government within the near future, is to rise up and challenge the Pork/Perk/­PAC/Payola now in control of Congress.”

“Impeachment isn't necessary, you'll get your chance to throw them out of office in November 2010, that's just a little over a year from now. If you're a Democrat, do it in the primary, if you're a Republican, well good luck!”

“Agreed!

Our fight for equal access to healthcare for all is about democracy, human rights, civil rights, and basic human decency. WE MUST JOIN TOGETHER TO FIGHT FOR OUR CIVIL RIGHTS AND BASIC HUMAN RIGHTS. Health care is a basic human right.

“Obama after enterring Office began backing "Public Option", again only a wedge of the Healthcare Insurance industry, he then became confusing to exectly what he actually supported.

What citizens need understand in losing (Preventive Healthcare "Single Payer") where illiness is checked before becoming (Remedial) Calamity, is that we are being set up. Congress is being given the "go" by Obama to do whatever they want (favoring Insurance Industry), and Obama's veto will mean absolutely NOTHING, both DEM/GOP Congress are quite evident in working for the Healthcare Insurance Lobyist's, and Congress WILL over-ride any veto by Obama.”

“Presidential candidate Obama was (FOR SINGLE PAYER) speaking in front of organized labor, but saw the light and said "He Never Said He Was For Single Payer" (after) becoming President.

YouTube has both (for/against) videos of above.

Was he lying, apparently only when his lips moved.”

“The "Public Option" is no more than a wedge for Corp Health Insurance industry to retain control over our lives for profit and obscene wealth. I've heard the idiocy about other industry CEO's ripping off US citizens worse than the Healthcare Insurance industry. To these PR-Scam Agencies provinding this invaluable information, bring on this striking data, why should we go after (ONLY) Healthcare Crooks.

Any Healthcare Plan that (is not) "Single Payer" is success of the Insurance industry in collusion with Congress together ripping off American citizens. Proving both are corrupt, proving WE NEED to eliminate BOTH.

The "Single Payer" plan is "Preventive Health" essentially guaranteeing good health, the Insurance industry (rip off) as we've found is 'Healthcare Limitation's for Added Profit", and except for the wealthy and 'Golden Best Policy' that Congress gave themselves, works out for the common citizen as a "Remedial-Calamity" healthcare plan that doesn't cover many citizens, who must wait until Health-Calamities" occur for which (all) US citizens must pay since these poor souls do not have health coverage policies of any sort.

SINGLE PAYER (OR) Congress takes a permanent vacation w/o Perk/Pork/­PAC/Payola coverage of any sort, and are replaced with REPRESENTATIVES of US Citizens.”

“moongall6.­..
We are over 6-months into the Obama term, and including the Bush-carry-over I have found absolutely (No Change).

Take the Bush-Admin GOP-Congress-bill and funding of a program to "Overthrow the Iran-Gov", this entails terrorist groups besides Iran insiders carrying out terrorist killing to this day. This program has not been terminated (with many other) and MeK terrorists are still apparently working out of Pakistan and Iraq with directives to kill Iranians.

Besides this, Obama is still carrying out Zionist operations all over the Middle East. Obama is also still carrying out the Reagan era "Trickle Down" that was proven a sellout to America's wealthy that are still shipping US Industry and Technology to places like the Democracy of China.

It is pretty much agreed among apolitical citizen activists, that McCain/Palin Presidential candidates were set up to be blindsided and destroyed before the election. The professional organization running their candidacy were playing keystone cops at best, there were more pratfalls orchrestrated by that group than you will find in any class-D movie.
Apparently this past election the Fascist's running things in America thought the citizens were at the bottom of their downward evolution, and needed the most dumned down circus in town.”

“I think DeWayne is saying what many of us old and savvy enough to see it have been muttering under our breath for some time....

that its all a big business media game...tha­t the dog and pony show that is set up for us to participate in is now for ratings, commercial air time, and consumerism.

We elect who they prop up to elect and after you've lived long enough and paid attention through a few election cycles, its pretty easy to spot.

Its a conspiracy right out in the open. But with no smoking gun, no insider whistle blower, and absolutely no media shill willing to lose their home in the Hamptons over it, the game just keeps being played.

“So if I am following you correctly, you are saying that Obama (a Columbia and Harvard educated professional) is the "dumbed down circus in town", and not McCain and Palin (who went to 5 colleges to obtain an BS in journalism)? Please tell me I am just not reading your post correctly.

As for McCain/Palin being destroyed before the election - well, they did that on their own. It took NO extra help. I don't dislike McCain, but the minute he picked that twit as his VP, he lost all credibility. He thought he would get the women voters by picking an attractive mom, but all of the intelligent women in America just laughed the minute she opened her mouth.

And since you throw the word "fascist" around - what does that word mean to you? Or are you one of the folks who heard it used on Beck or Rush and jumped on the bandwagon? If you dislike the way America is being "run", there are plenty of other countries that you certainly could move to. See how that works for you.”

That is about the sim of it, my god is bigger than your god. Is our government being corrupted by (ONE) single political party. This would be true if during periods when (and this is constant) Americans are being scr_ewed, there is ALWAYS ONE political party in control. Unfortunately between selective recollection of many today, there have been (both) political parties in power, and the list of State-Crimes during these two periods are WAY TO LONG to mention here.”

“I recognize (no beneficiaties) be they from DEM or GOP political parties, that is (not) specifically and fully endorsing and passing a "Single Payer Health Care" bill, and this without any form of Public Option that would do nothing but weaken the absolute need only of a Single Payer Health Care program.

Is the government at present realized as to corrupt to operate such a plan, only about 95% of American citizens seem to think so. Then let us clean out our present cesspool in Washington-DC and elect instead Third, Forth, and any number beyond of men and women that will staunchly support and work for American citizens for a change.

Has America and citizens of this nation been literally Sc_rewed by Health Insurance organized crime, again it appears that only 95% of America holds this strong belief. Then sc_rew the Corp Health Industry, we want Single Payer if we have to tear this government to the ground and start rebuilding with 'servants' instead of Wh_ores of Corporate pimping.”

“Let's see. There are only three single-payer systems in the world: North Korea, Cuba and Canada. The only countries that impose a government monopoly.

Canada's Supreme Court has ruled single-payer to be an unconstitutional threat to life -- citing all the Canadians who die on waiting lists. This is Canada's Supreme Court, not Glen Beck.

At issue, a patient on a year-long government waiting list for hip surgery. I'm 67, and know hip pain. This guy was suffering. But Canada forbids any private alternative to services provided by the government.

It's not just the United States rejecting single-payer. So does England, Germany, France and every decent society on earth.

I will send you to the Supreme Court ruling, but partisan blindness can be very strong,as we saw with the GOP Death Panelists.

“The only answer to the healthcare problem at this venture and time is a Single Payer program, a Public Option inclusion would not work and only hurt a Single Payer program, so Public Option is no longer a valid argument nor deserves consideration.

What to do considering the representatives of our government represent only the Insurance Industry, this would not be accepted in good company as legal, so forget tar and feathers or what I really had in mind, and simply dig a deep hole.”

“I apreciate that people see "promise" of peace with Pres-Obama, but it is wise not being satisfied with 'promise', when the actual and real deed is accomplished is more appreciated.

Many years ago than younger people may remember, US political parties before elections always drew up "Party Plaforms", these covered their position's on real issues.

It is not done any more, and I can tell you why. Tthere was always a better chance that hell would freeze over, than that they would keep a single platform promise. Again I encourage 'holding Obama's feet to the fire' concerning real issues, until real accomplisment is seen. In end times the Bible says people will instead seek leader's to 'tickle their ears'.”
