American Health Care Reform - Is Obama Losing Confidence in it? »

Posted By WikiMap 4 months, 1 week ago in News

President Obama took a quick break to meet NASCAR champion Jimmie Johnson at the White House on Wednesday but he once again spent most of his day trying to rally public support for his health care reforms. This time he took his message to a number of faith- based groups via a live conference all that was also simulcast on the Internet by the website faithforhealth.org.

    Eveyone I talk to thinks he is crazy, even my Democrat friends who voted for him, nobody wants this Government health care plan!

    What i want to know is why does he never address specifics of the plan directly, he just talks around them in his typical form.

    NO way he is just geting started. Do not count him out just yet.

      I think he just has no answer to the objections of those opposed to health care reform. He can stay on message promoting the benefits, but how do you answer those who are opposed based on wanting to turn the clock back on the federal government's authority to even administer Medicare, FDA, or to collect income tax?

      I doubt he had much confidence in it, but is just doing the bidding of some puppet masters.

        The only 'confidence' he'll be losing would be that Americans are intelligent, critically thinking people. Health care has turned into a rendition of 'bring in the clowns.' They even have a bus to do just that!

        The people that work for big companies,the government, and the rich are happy with their insurance where the individual business owner,the small business owner,the unemployed(especially over 50) are screwed. There needs to be some kind of financial subsidies for these people that are left out.

          "Report: White House ups projected deficit by $2 trillion

          Late on a Friday comes this jaw-dropping news:

          An anonymous White House budget official tells the Associated Press that the Obama administration now expects the U.S. budget deficit to hit $9 trillion during the next decade, $2 trillion more than first estimated.

          The projections will be released officially next week."

            This is NOT about Dems or Reps. This is about a massive TRILLION Dollar giveaway that will bury us deeper in an unmanageable national debt and literally cause overwhelming inflation. In itself, the bill is a thrown together, uncoordinated 600-page document that is a conglomeration of poorly thought-out ideas and simpleton views and shoved in a rush to the US population. Only fools would consider such a document as THE foundation of real health care reform.

            As with many other provisions, HOW ABOUT a 10-page document that manages tort law and malpractice, redefines and funds Medicare and Medicaid to cover the uninsured, and removal of the AMA as the provider of MDs and health care professionals?

                Let every Congressman and their families, the President and his family, the Presidential Staff and their families all buy into the Obama's Health Care Plan, giving up any other Health Care plan, Medical insurance, HMO, etc., that they now have thus proving how wonderful Obama's Plan is, then come to the rest of us and ask us to buy into it. I would never buy anything unless I know the seller is sold on the product themselves. Also, I would not vote for anyone who would expect me to do something they wouldn't.

                    Wake up America. The health care system they are trying to emulate is failing miserably with decades of suffering to show for it.

                    Why do Canadians and Brits come to Amercia for medical assistance? Because they cant wait 11 months for hip surgery, or 5 months for heart surgery or 2 months for a bed in Obstetrics when you are due to give birth. And oh yes,if are over 60 too bad. You are on your own. No open heart surgery (need it or not), no stents, by-passes, valve repalcements. Youa are told to live with it.

                    Some towns citizens have to wait in line for 28 hours just to get a dentist appointment.

                    See the news that most media does not want us to see; and yes it is by 20/20 a reputable news program.

                    See it for yourself.

                    I have a solution: Voluntarily offer more tax money to the gov - as much as you can and then some. Do this in exchange for an agreement that the gov leaves you alone.
