The Obamacare is what it is, anti the meddle class. A family that makes less than $75K, and more than $40K will be paying for the majority of the bills.

The meddle class that has coverage from employment currently, will loose their current coverages due to exemptions allowed for corporation!!!
The workers will be dropped and be forced into Medicaid state exchange program!

I don't know if you watched any of the Sunday news shows yesterday, but... Rep. Paul Ryan, Senator Mitch McConnell and Speaker of the House John "Tan Man" Boehner have all gone on record, saying that their next order of business [well, except for making sure President Obama doesn't get a second term] is repealing the Affordable Care Act. Every single one of them, asked by three separate interviewers on three different news shows, couldn't come up with an answer to the question, "Well, after you repeal Obamacare, what are YOUR plans to come up with health care reform?" It was almost painful [yet comical] watching them squirm. The Republicans HAVE no Plan B. They don't give a damn whether the poor, working poor, middle class, elderly and veterans have insurance or not. After all, THEY, as members of Congress, don't have to worry about pesky things like health insurance, since they get it FOR FREE, courtesy of the American taxpayers. Ryan, McConnell and Boehner did not have a single comprehensible, coherent or concise answer as to what they'd do to effect health care reform if they're successful in repealing Obamacare. In other words, these conservative Republican bums would replace the Affordable Care Act with...a vacuum. If you're in the mood for a good laugh, take a gander at ...

If you're in the mood for a good laugh, take a gander at the zero specifics John Boehner gave yesterday when interviewed on "Face The Nation" by Nora O'Donnell. It's a hoot. [It's the first segment on the show, so you won't have to wade through the entire video.] Let me know what you think...

You've got over 30 years of history backing you. Since the bobble head doll invented the homeless, I've been watching exactly what you're talking about, and it's despicable that it's gone on this long. They've been racking up a huge debt to this country while railing against any efforts to remedy the situation!

"Odumbo"? Creative word. How long did it take you to come up with that? I guarantee you this: Obama is an eloquent speaker. If your guy Mitt Romney uses words like "odumbo" in the debates, his a!s will be grass.

You fell for the leftwingers anti-Romney drivel. In most ways they are almost polar opposites politically.

Here's but one example shooting down what you parroted from those who want Obama to be re-elected: The Bilderberg boys want to dissolve our borders and to destroy U.S. sovereignty by allowing "open" borders and trying to attract as many job-stealing illegals as possible with amnesty, "free" healthcare and everything else, even work permits for them and college at taxpayer expense. Agree with that?

Now take a look at this:

I fell for the I'm not going to vote for anybody band wagon because they all do the classic strategy to stay in power. They cause a problem, then get a reaction that they wanted and then give a solution. They may preach different things but actions speak louder then words. I think if Romney gets elected he will go against what he said and be like Obama.

i know not a u.s citizen so in all actualltiy it would not efect me, now i thought when mr obama got in he'd have been good for the u.s people but as time went on i notticed how he's lied on various issues, thing's became bad for you guys, i think romney will be better for you, but i'd like to have seen sarah palin be there as presedent if i was a u.s citizen when she ran i'd have gave her my vote, i think it'd be bad move for obama to get in, the only thing i'd agree with obama is the health bill he wants, a lot of you guys don't know our health system its a shame as it would be better for you all, if anyone wants to ask me about it contact me via my e-mail johnkeenan13@yahoo.com or here on sodahead or facebook, it'd bennefit the rich and the poor

Dont worry with the health care the first thing to go will be the development of new technology. Also replacement of current technology will slow or stop. The current medicare system is close to broke, so when the system expands the medical payments will drop, yet providers will still have to provide. A nice downward spiral to nationalized health care. Then limits on who gets what will be stamped in stone by federal regulators or as was done in MASH a little black pill as an alternative. How can you give the federal governmnet one sixth of the economy and expect better results? What progam is it doing so well that you want to give your health care to it? How can you support a bill that has to be passed then after passing read it to find out what is in it? And a congresswoman from California said that the medical system in Cuba is better than ours? Really? Do you go to Cuba for medical treatment? How about a heart/lung transplant? The transparent president lied. During the campaign he said legislation will be online for two weeks before being voted on. Was that the case when this law was passed? He also said no tax increases for the middle class this law will be the largest tax increase ever. And as a kicker the congress now has the power to tax anything and everything they cho...

Dont smoke cigarettes? Congres can now force you to purchase cigarettes, dont smoke, so what pay the tax on a pack of cigrarettes once or twice a week. Then at the end of the year you must prove that you did indeed purchase the cigarettes or paid the tax. Or the IRS can fine you. Six pages of the Obama care law turned into 429 pages of regulations. There are six new taxes in this law six, how bout that. One question for you to answer, why on the eletronic medical records right across from your name is your BMI???? Why is that? Dont be bashful why is your BMI right across from your name? WHY?

The only reason we don't have enough money for medicare is that we spend too much on illegal wars.

No not quite the largest costs to the US government is its entitilement programs. They dwarf the military expenditures.Right now the unfunded liabilities of the US government is 60 to 65 trillion dollars. Not counting the 15 trillion debt.

That's the same baloney the bobble head doll worshippers spewed when he crated big pharm! Yes, we got generics, but the obvious greed-driven invention of these poisonous pharmaceuticals they're doling out was an inevitability. The fact of the matter is that there are far too many doctors more interested in $$$$ than healing people and most of the procedures you listed would only be accessible to the very wealthy.

You flag wavers make me sick! The first thing President Obama did for veterans was to honor the promises broken to us for many years. You'd have us dying in the streets before letting the uber rich go without their latest Pradas! The first thing he did was confiscate the VA paper shredders preventing us from getting the help we've needed. The six years I was denied disability was a very short time compared to many. It was 10 years before I could even admit the problems were killing me. You don't deserve our hard work and we didn't deserve to be dragged into all of these senseless wars! What freedoms have any of these wars protected except for cheap gas and war profiteering!!!!
Furl your flag until you get a clue to what it's supposed to stand for!
