Did you even post a video? What the Hell is going on??

[DekuTrash]

Video/Story please

[Hannibal the destroy]

I'm watching this load of and I have to say why does he not immediately answer the questions asked to him ? He just keeps going around and talking and talking until your so bored out of you're mind you don't bother to retort.

[Disaray]

So you are pissed off that he is giving a long and thoughout awnser? Would you rather he gave simple platatudes? Would you rather he give anwsers that don't fully adress the question but are short? Personaly I prefer the long awnser that gets all of his ideas and posisions on the issue at hand. Even if you disagree with him this way you know what he thinks if you have the patience to listen to him.

Does he give "long and thoughtful" answers, or is his teleprompter broken, again? His answers seemed long and rambling, to me. Without the teleprompter, the Messiah turns out to be not quite so bright as was once thought to be.

Also, I'm beginning to get the feeling that the DEM's complaining about the word "socialist" is another play at the Race Card. In other words, if you call Obamacare "socialist", it's code for the "n-" word.

OMFG so fake! He is so full of !

Wait, an insubstantial thread, against Obama, from you!?

[Gaidin]

Yea it's a shocker ain't it.

[Barry Goldwater]

Is there even an argument here?

[lord o kelly]

I just wish he would cite the things he is saying with page numbers to verify, because my relatives that have read it say that it is complete BS.

He is just another snake oil salesman, plain and simple.

I can start one.

I can start one.

Kelly's got you covered.

What things? How are they BS? By all means present an argument.

[Knight of Heaven]

Ok go for it, at leats we will have something to debate.

[6th Vigil]

Obama threads have really gone down in quality.

There is no one bill yet. There are three bills out of commitee, and one still stuck in commitee. The two house versions are rather simular, but substaintially different form the senate version, (main difference being the public option) and the Bachus Senate commitee hasn't released their details yet.

The next step is to consolidate the two house bills and two senate bills into one senate bill and one house bill to be voted on. Then those two versions need to be reconciled in a conference commitee and voted on again by both houses.

It seems like Obama is keeping his powder dry and speaking in broad terms, and not supporting any specifics, he even has backed out of supporting the public option which has angered some democrats.

Publically, this hasn't worked well as Obama hasn't had a laundry list of policies to go out and push, so the public in general doesn;t have a clear idea of what the final reform will look like (well nobody at this point does to be honest).

People have been filling in the gaps with whatever fits their political bias, and as such the public discussion hasn't been very productive. Hence the socialized medicine debates, even on this forumn, which is not on the table in any of bills.

Whatever happens, the actual providing of healthcare will be done by private industry.

[The Devil's Sergeant]

obama doesn't have a plan, he has rhetoric. Congress has the plan(s). Obama's rhetoric and Congress' plan(s) are not the same thing and only obama seems to not realize this.

At least someone has the right to make a profit in this country.

Obama is a socialist.
