Nancy Pelosi said it best "We will be joining those who established Social Security, Medicare and now, tonight, health care for all Americans." Congrats Obama, you're doing a great job. People come down on you and ridicule you for problems that you didn't create. You inherited Bush's problems and now you're trying to fix them. I know it's kind of hard to fix Bush's problems and at the same time focus on making the changes you promised. As a result, I am patient and I look forward to your 2nd term. It's interesting that Democrats are for the bill and Republicans are against the bill. I say to myself...hmm. Could it be that the Republicans are hating because with the passing of the bill, it's a significant victory for you? Hmm...could it be that with the passing of the bill, there's a good chance you'll be re-elected. I would bet any amount of money that if Obama was a Republican and the Republicans controlled everything, the same bill would have passed. Then Democrats would be in the same boat as Republicans. That is, Democrats would oppose the bill and Republicans would be for it. Republicans seem to care about the interests of their pockets and not Americans. It's obvious. Wake up and see that this bill will benefit Americans and downgrade the greed the insurance companies have. It seems like the only people really complaining about the bill are the Republicans and those who pockets or wallets are fat and want their pockets fatter.
And what was interesting is that protestors were saying the N word and the F word...what does someone's race or sex pref that have to do with damn healthcare?
Goes to show how looney the people are who was bytchin' about this bill. Instead of shouting out better ideas they shouting insults.
Like James Brown said,
"Talking loud and ain't saying nothing. Ain't sayin' nuthin.'"
who cares what white people and any other race thinks. It's all hate, racism and egotistic fags. It's all about a black man with the power to make decision for america. something that america media tood the world couldn't happen. we are not the under dogs black people. even without obama we need to prove that..
da great one is a joke. your just on here to stir up crap. mock me if you want. i hope your first on the list to hit up that fema camp. and btw i'm puertorican therefore AMERICAN. why don't you show your REAL ugly face. instead of hiding behind ignorance. you would have voted for flavor flav for president just cause hes black. the real big boys who are behind the scenes (white devil) are laughing at your dumb ass. cause they duped y'all into believing the YES WE CAN BULL. yes we can move toward NEW WORLD ORDER. hope your a billionaire otherwise your eliminated sheep
@ Royal Girl,
Actually a lot of polls have him above 50% and that was even before this bill passed. You all should be more worried at the fact your party (republican) is at 19% in the polls and people in this country still trusts Obama far more then they do either policitcal party...you also should be worried about the fact that Obama is not only politically but intellectually superior to everyone in your party and theres no one who can unseat him. Your party needs to worry about actually coming up with better ideas and stop trying to destroy this President. THEY created the mess.

@ Royalgirl,
The you give a phuck about the Republicans because over the last decade they have effected your pockets the most...anything else? Stop coming on here quoting poll numbers when the fact is throughout all the BS people like yourself have put this Preisdent through he is still trusted more then either party. So go somewhere and kick rocks with open toed shoes on. You sitting around calling him a failure when it is YOU on a blogsite stalking and talking about him all day? GTFOH with that nonsense...

so now you are empowered to come out of the closet and also admit you don't have a job "lawyering" anywhere. that's nice. remember, you can win the battle and lose the war. he who laughs last, laughs best so enjoy this moment and know that this too shall pass. pun intended. remember, a lot of people laughed and cheered when they boarded the titanic.
@tencents "Do you also see this historic event similar to the start of Civil War?"
i absolutely do not. that's house ni**a thinking. that massa's got to take care of your health so you can continue taking care of his laundry.
field ni**ers see the civil war as a human right. we don't need the massa to take care of our health
@gump/narcis/dcstillqueer/cougargirl/otis et al "are you upset?? back to the lame gay jokes."
i have never made a gay joke you senile old man. i am stating a fact today because you always denied when others called you that. today you are empowered. yes, i have made fun of your lawyering and obviously, i was right. your side had a victory yesterday and i am much happier than you are today because i see the big picture. you should be sunny and gay(pun intended) today. instead you're fighting with people like me. it's so easy to mess with your mind.
@sotrue
I'm not an Obama hater unlike some people on here. He just hasn't shown me anything worth jumping up and down for. He seems very catty that's just my personal opinion. I voted for him and I'm black by the way. I don't like racist people either but I'm not going to pretend he is the second coming either. I do agree racist people ON BOTH SIDES make it hard for a civil debate. I think Obama likes it that race baiting. He can call any opposition racism but what if somebody has a valid point. He plays the victim and race card too much and that's annoying. He's my Prez too so I can complain
@tencents
you brought up the civil war not me and i do not watch glenn beck. i should have my own program for the number of times you and gump accuse me of using talking points. like i told you before, what i've forgotten, you don't know. i use 42% of my brain to get down to your level. you see, where i went to school, you had to actually master the material before you got promoted. don't hate, just learn.
In my eyes he hasn't done ANYTHING he said he was going to do
PUBLIC OPTION FAILED CLOSING GITMO BY DEADLINE FAILED DONT ASK DONT TELL REPEAL FAILED UNEMPLOYMENT DOWN FAILED NO NEW TAXES FAILED FAILED FAILED STABILIZE ECONOMY FAILED
I know the public option is all but dead in the water but he need to work on some more of his campaign promises to convince me
@tencents
you are a miserable old hag. why aren't you happy today? you and gump are like broken records. for one day can't you savor your shortsighted victory? geesh, if i were you, i wouldn't even be on this thread. and if i was, i would certainly be in a better mood. what is wrong with you people? even when you win, you lose. sour puss!
@ROYALGIRL there's nothing else to be said for now. i'm surprisingly upbeat as you may be too. there's a long road ahead and there's the november elections. tonight, the cnn pole has obambi's approval at an all time low of 46 or 47%. nanny pelosi's is 11% and congress' is down there as well. they had the votes to do this but the american people get to vote in november so i'm very optimistic. ciao.
@barnbrat1
I am not a Republican but I think they are going to take many seats this November. Obama pissed off VOTERS! His presence didn't sway NJ or MA but he wants to hang his hat on this false victory. Too much grand standing and self accolades for me. Do something that don't involve frucking up the economy
Several countries have gone bankrupt in the past few years…Japan, Ukraine, Iceland and Hungary…and if you examine the reason for their bankruptcy, one commonality is shared among these countries...they have an enormous aging population who cannot work and must rely on government aid…while their young population pool is virtually inexistent. You see…the youthful pool has to be able to replace the aging pool…it’s through their labor creation and taxation that the funds will be available to help the elderly and the incapable.
The US healthcare reform was never about African Americans or the poor as the Republican will have you believe…it was about the baby-boomers who are about to enter retirement…and a with a fix set of income, many may not be able to afford extend end health care coverage. I looked at the numbers…America is almost bankrupt…and if Health care was left unchecked it would have been bankrupt by the turn of this year…not it can prolonged it for another year….But, America will face bankruptcy…and it’s not because of the socialist mantra that the Republican are pushing. It’s because of an aging population and an ineffective labor pool.
America’s labor pool is dwindling…let me explain…I understand we have more immigrants and an explosion of Spanish population…but, American Labor Pool isn’t driven by manufacturers, where an simple High school degree would do….it is driven by skill laborers who can create new industries…it is driven by academicians, by biotechnicians… These industries require a unique set of laborers that will have to be imported, because the American youth, for the most part aren’t being prepared for these industries.
I am out.
Our youth pool is as strong as ever! This is an excuse to justify NOTHING!!
The dollar is "artificially" carried and inflated so as to mmaintain and to "project" confidence simply because of the several currencies attached to the dollar basket!
Strong in what?
During Bush term, they wanted to impose immigrations laws that would restrict Student’s Visas….Do you know what happened?
Top University professor of Harvard, Yale, and other Ivy League institution told Bush to slow the fukk down with your immigration laws. It is the immigrant from other countries that fills these top institutions….this is where we grab or scientist, academicians, biotechinicians, and physicist .etc
Bush had no choice but, to renege on his immigration laws.
Listen, I don’t give a [EXPLETIVE] about and over inflated dollars…there will always be factors in this economy that cause inflation and deflation of this imagery currency… this is they way of capitalist system….Certain things will drive the value of the dollar, either up or down…one of which is consumer confidence, GDP and CPI…etc
Inflation is not New…this is basic economics
But, whether the dollar is inflated or deflated it is still a mode of currency…currency with which to purchase, trade and sell with…
And why does the construction sector still have 22-23% unemployment while Government is at 3%? Because that's where the money went to shore up the SEIU jobs (Federal State and Local Government) around the country. Shovel Ready was just a catch phrase to get you to go along with the scheme.
And wouldn't you want people on the panel that are actually in the position to create jobs and revitalize the private sector? Instead he preaches to the choir with an audience largely composed of socialist professors and UNION executives.

What is this?
Trickle down economy…is this Regan Revisionist philosophy?
Trickle down economy only works if their aren’t competing outside influences…like outsourcing
You and the Republican Trickle down economy is antiquated, and Just like Mr. Regan…it has gone to pasture.
Listen….this is a new age…if the working class don’t have enough money to spend, or would rather save than spend, then this economy will stall, no matter how much you have in surplus…it will stall, until consumer confidence regains or unemployment drops.
Consumer confidence is uncertain…because, in large part due to the failure of Big Banks and Bing financial institution to regulate themselves.
What happens in a system where you have no regulation ….then you have the 2008 Housing Bubble Crisis…you Have the 2009 Financial Crisis…yOU have the Stock Market crash
You see…Regulation doesn’t mean socialism…doesn’t mean Big government
If Education was left to Private entities, do you think everyone would be able to School?
If HealthCare, such as Medicaid or Medicare was not government run…would the elderly be able to afford health care?
Without social security would the old and retiree be prudent enough to save enough money for retirement..?
These are some of the cases for some form of Government regulation… a market left uncheck is like the wild Wild West…where it’s all about survival of the fittest
And we all know, who would have the upper hand in such a system…
You fake ass republikkkan are nothing but a bunch of hypocrites, here's why: * conservatives are (allegedly) supposed to be for the people BUT you shady bitches are more concerned with how much the insurance companies will lose * the more you earn the MORE you are responsible to pay BUT yet the wealthy was given tax cuts via bitch BUSH (check the bible) * no privacy due to patriotic act via bitch BUSH again BUT yet not an issue of discussion * invade a country a didn't get the TRUE resource - OIL BUT yet the imaginary WOMDs are nonexistent * no REAL support of our troops who when they return
And why does the construction sector still have 22-23% unemployment while Government is at 3%? Because that's where the money went to shore up the SEIU jobs (Federal State and Local Government) around the country. Shovel Ready was just a catch phrase to get you to go along with the scheme.

One more thing before I go
Listen…several billion was given to Banks and Financial institutions…in order to buy out their bad debts…clear off their balance books
They this, in hopes, banks would start lending again….they did….but, not to consumers, not for housing loans, not for small business….they lend to commercial real-estate tycoons….more and more money was loan out to big construction firm to build malls, shopping centers and other commercial industrial complexes
You know what happened?...many of these commercial buildings are left unoccupied….you know why?...because the average consumer is not spending as much…and many businesses fail within the first few months.
It is not the Big Businesses that drive a market…it’s not Private lenders…but the laborers and consumer confidence…and their willingness to spend.
I am out….
