WASHINGTON – Senate Democrats passed a landmark health care bill Thursday that could define President Barack Obama's legacy and usher in near-universal medical coverage for the first time in the country's history.

So what's his next order of business? Is he going to take our guns away? I don't fear Obama as much as I do Biden. Biden, Clinton and Holder are the real anti-gun buffoons. Let's just hope the Dems don't win in 2012.

Odd thing is, they keep telling us that this Health Care Bill will make us all better.

But when I heard the new, I started feeling really really sick

If you don't have a job and/or can't afford healthcare, how do you pay for it? Do you have to go to jail to get it?

chuckusaret · 12-24-2009, 08:49 AM

What I can not understand is that the bill was to cover all the 47 million Americans that had no health insurance, now they have stated that there will only be 20 million plus not covered. I believe this is nothing more than another means to give the government more control over the people.

A sad day for America!

The Senate version still has to be reconciled with the House version...and I've been hearing that quite a few of the left-wing whackamole Democrats in the House really don't like the Senate version. So maybe, just maybe, it won't get reconciled...maybe.

Given the huge amount of secrecy, bribery, blackmail, and extortion used to force enough votes to pass the senate version, it is unlikely anything will stop this from passing. That the majority of American citizens are against this is not important enough to our elected officials for them to actually represent the will of their electorate.

Some people would call this the criminal actions of morally bankrupt, self-aggrandizing, money grubbing despots; other would call it high crimes and misdemeanors. I call it treason.

It's going to get reconciled, and they will pass it. It's just the beginning. It's been the goal all along - on BOTH sides of the aisle.

I don't for one second think that the grandstanding republicans and a couple democrats, are truly against it at all. This is about a power grab, and they ALL want the power. Every single one of these guys, be they (D) or (R) or (I) are all sell outs, and need to be tried for treason - against the constitution. Maybe they voted against this one, but there are countless others that they voted on to help destroy this country.

It's not going to change. They don't care, and they're not listening to us at all.

If the American people haven't yet marched on Washington DC with pitchforks and torches (and nooses) or worse, it's not gonna happen, period.
