Compared to⦠what other kind of politics, exactly? Which type of politics doesnāt use bribes, kickbacks, backdoor deals, backstabbing, lying, cheating, manipulation of data, or anything else that can be considered āChicagoā style?
You mean the fine politicians from Texas, New York, Florida, and Massachwhatsits donāt partake in pretty much the exact same tactics and methods that those from Chicago do?
Get a grip, dude, or if you are that freaked out Iām sure you can join Rush in Costa Rica.
No one will ever be happy, even if the government approached the things the GOP wants them to, you would just bitch even more. That is clear enough when you cry foul just because the government is working with those who make recommended guidelines for cancer screenings, suddenly the government is infringing on your doctorās decisions concerning your health. Tort reform and educating the public and the children about healthy food and exercise is just a red herring; as soon as the administration works towards those two goals it will be āWhy does the government have the right to decide if I can sue for malpractice?ā and āI donāt want the government teaching my kids how to behave!ā. No one will ever be happy, there will never be anything but lose-lose. Itās sad to say that youāre all a bunch of lunatics and you certainty would have deserved living in that hellhole of America you were trying to create for yourselves, deluded into thinking it was paradise. If only I could have deluded myself.
Mediocre bill in the right direction, but hopefully it will open up more legislation in the future.
Itās been a strange year. Iāve learned a lot about how broken the U.S. health care system (or lack thereof) is and Iāve learned a lot about just how libertarian some Americans are with regard to āthe choice as to whether or not to be insured for health care.ā To an Acadian like me, and the rest of the western world, it seems painfully obvious how ludicrous that choice is. This bill is a horrible compromise to big business and conservative Democrats; it even had everything but the kitchen sink for Republicans-- but not a single Republican in the House voted for it. Hereās to you, you poor, filthy, malnourished and diseased, poverty-stricken Americans: you will not die in the streets any longer (starting in 2014).
Actually, over here the overall impression is that it is about time that the US received a decent health care system. And although that is my point of view, right now Iām just stating an observation of what they say about it on Dutch television⦠So please donāt shoot the messenger.
Yeah, Iām ignorant because I voted for Obama and Iām also a racist because my father was African American and My Mother was white. Thanks for straightening me out.
ummm Iām guessing youāre responding to me? Iāll try it again
When you say:
Please explain what you mean by āEveryoneās upset because it took President Obamaā. How or why is everyone is upset that it was Obama who got it passed?
Maybe Iām just misunderstanding you here. Could you clarify it?
i know we can work this out. Your myspace page said youāre āa great guy who can get along with anybodyā.
āEnchanted Unicornā to Clarify; Roosevelt, Johnson, Nixon, and Clinton have try to push the āHealth Careā reform during their years in office, But it Took Mr. Obama THREE months just to get it passed in Senate, and thatās why most āRepublicanā Senate Leaders are upset, I didnāt mean everyone as a whole. I took political science my freshman year at community college and sometimes I leave out details when Iām discussing politics. Oh and Vice President Biden thinks itās a āBig F***ing Dealā That this is actually happening. And yes, when people meet me in public I am a āGreat Guy to get along withā
