God I love this country. Does anybody know how lucky we are? In other countries, this kind of thing is not allowed. Thank God & infinite life for America. Thank God for freedom. Stand & fight!

God Love the Tea Party. May this energy continue the entire year, especially with amnesty and when Nov. nears.

Useful Idiots on both sides – it is a one-party system, all theater for the masses – do you want your bread or your guns. Bah!

Ritty77   March 20th, 2010 - 6:53 pm

Don’t know how many people were there, but there are tens of millions who agree with you. Way to go!

Tomfoolery   March 20th, 2010 - 6:56 pm

Tomfoolery is ‘foolish or silly behavior’.

Tomfoolery is, as you might guess, the behavior of a tomfool, that is, a foolish or stupid person; a silly fool’.

(I love this part.) A tomfool was originally Tom Fool, with Tom, a nickname from Thomas, being a stereotypical male given name. Tom was often used in personification before nouns, thus Tom Long ‘a person who takes a long time to tell a story’, or Tom Piper ‘a piper’ (this one is found in Spenser). Tom Fool is thus a sort of fourteenth-century equivalent of our modern Joe Cool.

As a (fictitious) proper name, Tom Fool is first recorded in the fourteenth century; a sense ‘a person who plays the part of a fool in various dramas; buffoon’ appears by the seventeenth century. The generic sense ‘a foolish person’ is first recorded in the early eighteenth century.

The noun tomfoolery, an intensification the existing foolery, is first recorded in the early ninteenth century.

The conservative reich-wing teabaggers showed their true racist and bigoted face today yelling vulgar racial epithets and spitting on people. For those who said I was wrong in calling you the reich-wing, make no mistake about it, today shows I was absolutely correct. That is what you are. Uncivilized thugs.

Smitty   March 20th, 2010 - 7:00 pm

Ritty77: Don’t matter how many were there, for all your so called “tens of millions” there are hundreds of millions that want this bill to pass. It’s over for you nutbags! Go home and take care of your hogs and chickens. Hide in your bomb shelters for fear of the sky falling as Faux news has been spewing to you. Trust me, no one will miss you if you stay in there forever, LOSERS!

We know that you leftists are so desperate and despicable . that you will do anything to try and dicriedt any one whom opposes you on substance . I do not go after Obama on his Race ,it is infact his policy that is despicable , and will lead to TYRANNY .

There is danger from all men. The only maxim of a free government ought to be to trust no man living with power to endanger the public liberty.

All the perplexities, confusion and distress in America arise, not from defects in their Constitution or Confederation, not from want of honor or virtue, so much as from the downright ignorance of the nature of coin, credit and circulation.

SMITTY: You better hope you stay healthy and don’t ever have to rely on the Obama government for your life-sustaining medical care! Oh, wait, he will be out-of-office when this crap-care kicks in, so keep worshiping your hero, Obama. He promised to take care of you, didn’t he? Forget what the doctors have to say, TRUST government, SMITTY!

DEMOCRATS = HYPOCRITES   March 20th, 2010 - 7:35 pm

(Watching C-span coverage of Congress BLOWHARDS…)

The feigned MORAL INDIGNATION of blowhard Democrats at the audacity of Republicans to discuss HEALTH CARE ISSUES during a segment devoted to
VETERANS, by SELF-RIGHTEOUS idiots like Hime and Garamendi, is SO DISGUSTING there are no words to describe it!

GET OFF YOUR PHONY HIGH HORSE, YOU HYPOCRITES!
WHAT DEMOCRAT EVER CARED ABOUT VETERANS???

THEY TROT OUT VETERANS AND SICK CHILDREN TO BOLSTER THEIR EVIL PLOT TO FOIST THIS DANGEROUS LEGISLATION ONTO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE.

HAVE YOU CREEPS NO SHAME??
–WE ALL KNOW THE ANSWER TO THAT!

AMERICA: INSIST ON A “NO” VOTE ON THIS HORRIBLE CRAP THEY’RE PROPOSING!

@Whatwhatwhat   March 20th, 2010 - 7:36 pm

I read that the 3 men yelling the N word were in fact black themselves and we all know that this is permitted in the black community usually term of endearment. But you choose to call the 3 young black men racist and bigoted.

AUNT JEMIMA, WE DO UNDERSTAND!   March 20th, 2010 - 7:37 pm

Yeah, and AUNT JEMIMA Jackson Lee gets up and snarls that the American people “don’t understand” the contents of their wonderful proposed legislation!

AUNT JEMIMA, WE *DO* UNDERSTAND; THAT’S WHY WE DO NOT WANT YOUR CRAPPY LEGISLATION!

According to your bigotry, if a few demonstrators at an anti-Iraq war rally yell, “Death to Israel! Hitler should have finished the job!” (which has been heard at anti-Israel and anti-war protests) that means that ALL Leftists are guilty of being anti-semites. You leftist hypocrites have no intellectual ability or integrity.

legalatina   March 20th, 2010 - 8:18 pm

This Latina tea-partier, conservative knows firsthand that the tea-party groups are honest, patriotic citizens of all walks of life who are genuinely concerned about the ramifications of the radical progressive agenda being imposed on this nation. This country is right of center, and the idiots who blindly were led by the “hope and hype” candidate are to blame for the disaster our nation is facing now. The real racists were all those OBAMA campaigners who played the race card from the beginnning to get OBAMA elected to the detriment of our entire nation and the standing of our nation in the world of geopolitics. You who placed race above merit and qualifications and looked past the inexperience and history of association with Marxists and societal deviants and voted for OBAMA are directly responsible for the consequences. Just watch what happens to the stock market on Monday if this passes tomorrow. People’s hard earned savings and investments will evaporate ..and that’s exactly what the progressives want…diminish wealth so we can all be equally bankrupt.

PATRIOTS A CALL TO ACTION!
What is happening is nothing short of a coup.
We need 100,000 American citizens in Washington DC Sunday.
Every street and alley leading to the Capitol building needs to be crammed with people, with everyone sitting down, and locking arms, blocking every access to their chambers. Force them to physically drag us out of the way. Lock arms, hold each other tight. Don’t let them through! Don’t let them destroy the Republic and the Constitution. If they force their way in with tanks, be ready to die for your Country. They crushed liberty in Tiananmen Square, and they might do it here, but don’t let this coup be bloodless. Force them to spill innocent blood onto the streets. Our forefathers did it for us. Now it’s time for us to do it for our children. God and history will vindicate us. Down with tyranny! God save our Republic and it’s Constitution!
GET TO WASHINGTON DC AND STOP THIS VOTE FROM HAPPENING!

Joe American 1776   March 20th, 2010 - 9:10 pm

Hello Fellow Americans: Above it was stated, “This is our last chance.” At first glance this sounds true, however as subsequently stated above, “We have only just begun.” and “We shall overcome.” This bill maybe passed tomorrow by the slimmest of margins, one or two NON partisan votes, however as noted above in the clip, “Come 2010, and 2012 this law and the men and women who voted for it will all be voted out.” So fellow Americans who have tried hard to keep the 2010 Congress and President from making the biggest mistake in their lives, or ever in the history of the United States of America, I say thank you for your efforts in trying to get the men and women in Congress to wise up and understand what all this is really about. As each of you know now, we are up against more than just the democratic party and the misguided politicians. We are up against an attempt to “Transform America.” Some say this will be Socialism and some say it will be Communism. Others say no, this is only what Americans want. To this I say, whatever it IS, when the voice of the majority within America is not listened to, when the people we sent to Washington D.C. to represent our voices are NOT listen to, we are all in for a ride of your lives. This ride has been coined, “Change”. This ride due to its corruption and strong arm tactics will certainly be a “Change” that we have never seen in the country since our Nation was first established. Many democrats and many in Hollywood, and many charged up young people are enjoying this ride of “Change” as they see “potential change of concerns with humanity”, however just as in Disneyland, just wait until they see what is coming around the corner. If Americans allow this health care bill to be jammed down the throats of all the American citizens even though the majority is against it, even though all the corruption and strong arm type politics are openly seen, then basically this administration can get away with ANYTHING. If the rest of America (the democrats) don’t snap out of being fooled by the characters in Washington soon, these changes will become law and America may get to the point of NO RETURN. So fellow Americans, its NOT over. Miracles can happen. For those who can get through to your friends in Congress, please stand up and make calls to ask them to protect America. Ask them to protect America not just from this health care bill, but specifically from the corrupt way in which this vote is happening. Tell them to vote NO. For each of the Congressmen and Congresswomen to ignore their constituents, “meaning us” is NOT right. Who are these Congressmen and Congresswomen listening to? America, I ask you, is this a democracy? For a bill that effects ALL AMERICANS, and up to 1/6th of our total economy, to be subject to bribery and corruption, and to be possibly passed by one party, against the will of the MAJORITY OF AMERICANS is a nightmare. Its a nightmare which will effect us for a long time. HOW can this happen in America? How can a health care system that has been considered satistfactory for over 85% of Americans be SO wrong that America’s Constitution and its “WE THE PEOPLE” has to be subjected to a process that is openingly corrupt and forced upon them. America, please Pray for a miracle tonight. Please pray for America, for I feel America is about to “Change”, and it is not the change we were all hoping for. God Bless our Troops. God Bless America, and God help the many who have tried to protect America from corruption and the misguided politicians who appear they do not care for her future. Amen. Sincerely Joe American 1776.

right wing sheeple   March 21st, 2010 - 2:33 am

Health Care is for the privileged,If you don’t have a way to get health care that’s too damn bad.

Insurers should keep on placing lifetime dollar limits on policies, continue to deny coverage to children because of pre-existing conditions, and keep on canceling policies because someone gets sick. Parents should not be able to keep older kids on their coverage up to age 26.If they can’t find a job, tough.

Just because you can’t get insurance because you have a pre-existing condition,you should not be able to be put in a new high-risk pool that
would offer coverage to uninsured people with medical problems.You need to do the best you can and tough it out.

Don’t anyone on this forum read the bill because you might like some things that are in it.I sure as hell don’t want that to happen.

infinitefreedom   March 21st, 2010 - 3:15 am

Seriously, I wonder how many leftist drones are going to be mad when they find out that this bill forces them to buy from the health care companies. Do these idiots think it’s free. How numb in the head are they. & the state & federal taxes increase tremendously. & kill even more & more jobs.

I guess when you can’t think for yourself, you attack out of fear of being found out. Hence, leftists. Scared little idiot drones, every one. Even the dumb blond on Hannity, acted like a caged beast. Attack drones, if you can’t think. Sad remnants of what was once a human being. Now a collective machine.

Gotta say, reacting with shock and fear to their behavior, you give them exactly what they want. It’s really not that different from managing a three year old’s tantrum.

By their own actions, these people have decided that they are not participants in a political process. (I feel the same way about the faux anarchists are leftie demos, too.) The difference is, cops won’t taser these morons.

I really can’t stand the hypocrisy – peaceful anti-war protesters on public streets who are not threatening anyone get thrown into jail by the hundreds, yet these assholes can swarm and abuse legislators within the Capitol building? This is ridiculous.

Remember when Bush would give speeches and protesters would be gated off in a “free speech zone” a mile away?

H2K   March 21st, 2010 - 11:38 am

right wing sheeple
Healthcare is for everyone who has a plan. And even for people who don’t. We have an incredible number of entitlements in this country that provide healthcare service from S-CHIP to Medicare/Medical/Medicaid to pharma companies that GIVE AWAY free medicine to emergency rooms that don’t turn anyone away.
Do you see why your first statement is just blatantly stupid?
Insurance companies cannot deny paying a claim if it violates the clause of the insurance contract. Why do you liberals keep saying that? If an insurance company denied you a valid claim, you could sue them for millions.
Did you know that Medicare as a percentage denies more claims than any one insurance company?
Did you know that health insurance companies on average make about a 3.5% profit?
Did you know that the consumer price index of the yearly increase in insurance rates is approximately the same as inflation…which is about 3 – 4%? Did you know that Medicare costs are going up 15 – 50% per year?

You know, it would be nice for everyone to own a nice unicorn. It would be nice to give away housing, healthcare, food, transportation. But the problem is that when you give everything away, there is no incentive to work, to innovate, to improve.

This healthcare legislation is the worst thing we could do as a society.

H2K   March 21st, 2010 - 11:40 am

I meant to say – Did you know that Medicare costs are going up 15 – 20% per year? Finger check.

H2K March 21st, 2010 – 11:38 am

So basically you agree with me,it not a right but a privilege if you can afford to buy health care.

HMOs and health insurance providers are constantly finding new reasons to deny new treatments, experimental drugs, lengthy hospital stays and other costly services.
You can sue and appeal but it takes time.Some people don’t have that time.

I see you only addressed health care for the poor.There are many people that don’t qualify for these subsidies.

Most Americans who have health insurance have benefits through an employer, and most who lose coverage do so because of employment changes: getting laid off or fired, not being able to work enough hours to continue to qualify for their employer’s benefits.

What about those that can afford insurance but have a chronic disease that makes them a high risk for an insurance company? If they don’t have insurance through an employer, coverage can be difficult to qualify for or to afford.
Do you really think that emergency rooms are a good place to receive health care?That’s where a lot of people go for health care.Guess who picks up the cost?
Many health insurance rates are going up, not down. Keep in mind the for-profit health industry exists for only one purpose, to generate profits for shareholders. Check out the salaries of health care CEO’s

We can agree to disagree,but I do thank you for at least being civil.

Do you realize ANYTHING NOT stated in the constitution is reserved to the states? If you READ the constitution this is CLEAR. It’s not just this bill thats unconstitutional..MOST of them are. It’s a document that PREVENTS out of control government. I suggest with that you review all our bills, strip these idiots of their so called “power”, and restore the republic. You idiots in washington are getting real close to a dose of reality and it’s NOT going to be business as usual, in fact most of you have committed treason YES TREASON, and we all know what happens to TRAITORS.
