Dallas come quick…we need some spin control here.
You know, I have to hand it to the liberals. They had so many people snowed with the “peace and love” bullshit. Most didn’t think they were blood thirsty enough to send out guys in body armor, armed with sub machine guns to put Americans in prison for not buying health insurance.
Yea, no real proof, just a mountain of coincidences, flip flops, conflicts of interest, family connections, etc.
Gee, if a 19 month (however long) junior Senator who spent his adult life in Chicago as a community organizer can be bought so quickly and completely, what chance will there ever be for CHANGE WE CAN BELIEVE IN.
Maybe Bill Ayers really should be elected, or Nader. Some real brick thrower. Not a poser.
#3…or Dennis Kucinich. Oh yeah, he is too short to be elected.
This is nothing compared to Obama selling out the country by putting Geithner at head of the treasury and sending Volcker to political Siberia.
God I hate politicians. Watch him try to get the homeless to pay taxes next.
“Barack Obama ran for president as a man of the people…”
Wrong. Barack Obama ran for president as a black man of the people.
And the sole reason I would have voted for him.

Based on your post I am guessing you do not have to pay your taxes because you have no kids. I know for a fact that the authorities will let you not pay local taxes that support your local public schools if you have no kids.
Too bad there is not a prison for stupid people!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You’re an idiot, nobrain.
Umm,
Last I heard there were AT LEAST 3 bills being past for health care. WHICH one is this?
I thought the Obama one had gone on to be voted on..Past the first house and was in congress.
To: Obamaforever
So you are all for federal agents arresting people and putting them in a federal prison for years for not buying an over-priced health insurance policy? You’re all for that “change,” right? You might want to wipe that little bit of blood from your fangs…it’s unsightly.
#8. Idiotforever, WTF does your dumbass comment have do with the post?
I’m waiting……..
@#9:
“Last I heard there were AT LEAST 3 bills being past for health care. WHICH one is this?”
It’s the one with the multi-year federal prison sentence for not buying health insurance from the insurance industry. You either buy a policy, or you get put in a pound-you-up-the-ass prison.
If this passes the senate it still needs to be merged with the house bill.. There could be some interesting changes done at that point. I’m not a fan of the senate bill.
#14 KMFIX said “If this passes the senate it still needs to be merged with the house bill.. There could be some interesting changes done at that point.”
Absolutely. They’ll fix it! HA!
We are such a bunch of losers! It ain’t over – but it’s getting close.

I was responding to post #2, Retard
Read and understand you goddamn ignorant piece of crap!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
People WITH kids pay local taxes that support local public schools. People WITHOUT kids pay local taxes that support local public schools. It benefits EVERYBODY to have educated kids.
Note: to make it clear to tbarrey, the health care tax pays for the health care insurance. A sick person pays the health care tax. A non-sick person pays the health care tax. The health care tax benefits EVERYBODY.
It benefits the sick person who cannot get insurance (in the past) so they can get insurance. It benefits the non-sick person because the non-sick person will get sick in the future. It will benefit the non-sick and the sick person because they will not have to pay for emergency room treatment for people without insurance. In short, local taxes benefit everybody and the health care tax benefits everybody and this makes the analogy apropos.
Do you understand, you idiot????
Many of us on the right gave fair warning about Obama but you brain dead liberals just wanted to buy into his rhetoric instead of using your brain to realize you were being suckered by a snake oil community organizer from Chicago. But don’t worry. The right will once again come to bail out you idiots on the left who voted for this half white lying scumbag.
#16:
“Do you understand, you idiot????”
Do you understand that what I posted was about the federal prison sentences for not buying a health insurance policy? No, probably not. Go back to cheering government cracking people’s heads open for not doing business with the health insurance cartel.
#16-Obamaforever-The health care tax benefits EVERYBODY.
So that means it would benefit you? Oh good, another reason to oppose ObamaCare.
Gee, it’s not the first time a Politician has broken a campaign message or promise. Just look at how the stocks in insurance companies have rose in the past month. No doubt their stock holder’s believe this bill will actually help them. Their is no doubt we who have insurance will pay more so that those few million can pay little or nothing to have it. Its the Liberal way. Robin Hood (Obama) and his merry men Harry Reid for one will not have it any other way.
From: Obamaforever
To: nospam (aka nobrain)
Please show me in the Health Care bill where it says that if a person does not pay for health care insurance said person will go to (federal) prison.
This should be “real good”.
Retard, if you cannot do this then shut-up you ignorant piece of worthless crap.
PS, Your post #2 says nothing about “federal prison sentences”. It states ‘prison” Say what you mean and mean what you say!!!!!!!!!! You idiot.

To: All anti-Health Care Reform Retards per #19
Yes, the Health Care tax will help me and Retards like Dr Dodd, pedro, The Warden, nospam, etc.
It will be a wonderful world!!!!!!
From: Obamaforever
To: The Warden (aka the Little Idiot) per #17
Dear Little Idiot,
I am assuming that you voted for Bush (the Great Idiot) in 2000 and 2004. I heard no warning from the Little Idiot. And thus, we had eight years of stupidity from the Great Idiot.
It is much better to be half white then a whole asshole, Little Idiot!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
#22:
The IRS will be administering the penalty for not buying insurance from the cartel. If you don’t pay the IRS money they deem you owe, you are exposed to a possible 5 year prison term and up to $250,000 in fines. Oh, and when you are in IRS court land, you are presumed guilty until such time you can prove you are not.
And you never answered the question: are you good with putting people in prison for not buying health insurance from the cartel? If so, for how many years?
The coming 2012 election will result in defeat for Obama if the Republicans find an reasonable, prehaps African American (Colin Powell), person. Or, an independant will split the vote, taking more support from Obama than the republicans (a la Perot and Nadar).
I wonder how many people on this blog that complain about Mr. O will do anything to suppress his re-election chances? I’m going to retarget the $500 a year I contribute to political activites to Republicans only.
So let’s see, went ahead with unnecessary bailouts, escalating troop presence in Afghanistan, social medicine – forget it, climate change – all talk no commitment. He didn’t sellout, I say he’s been faithful to his masters from the beginning.
From: Obamaforever per #22
To: nospam (aka nobrain) per #25
nobrain, you pulled that out of your asshole or Rush Limbaugh’s asshole.
Again, please show me in the Health Care bill where it says that if a person does not pay for health care insurance said person will go to federal prison (via IRS).
Remember, your asshole does not count.
Maybe now you people will understand that in order to control perception, **what you think** and ultimately, the people..
..you must own and control BOTH sides of every party, argument, debate -and war. They were in it together from the start. Just the same as those who came before them.
Obama was hired as the “Everyman” salesman by the rockefeller-bush-clinton cabal to ultimately make us all believe that *serving* (and being a slave to)
Cradle to the Grave Government Control of every facet of your life is a very cool and good thing…
Since we are all guilty of producing (and exhaling) “toxic” carbon dioxide and causing the planet’s weather to go bonkers..
-we should all really love & embrace a Global Government who’s sole function will be to “save the planet” from Humanity by creating Carbon Derivatives which will be backed by taxing every single thing you (or a farting cow) does.
Period.
The next war, The War on Climate, will then be used to control access to water, food, resources and ultimately, your Life.
There, see how simple it is?
Now, You will all continue to be “had” until you Wake up and realize their is no “two party” system. It is a one party system run by several factions of people (and most likely, “non-people” who think they are royalty and the rightful airs to everything on and in the planet. We are all just expendable pawns on a global chess board -and in case you haven’t noticed, until very recently, we really suck at chess.
Now wake up, STOP supporting your puppet masters and START SUPPORTING HUMANITY.
The game rules are STUPID SIMPLE: HUMANITY: United WE stand Divided WE Fall.
FREAKAZOIDS in control: Divide and Conquer
Oldest game in the “book”.
-any “party” system that divides humanity is “failure by design” and meant to control “we the people” via the illusion of Liberty and Free Will, of which currently, we have neither.
For whom will you stand with now?

#29:
Section 7201 of HR 3692, the bill that will be merged with the senate bill in conference makes it a felony to not buy health insurance. Felony willful evasion is punishable by a fine of up to $250,000 and/or imprisonment of up to five years. So you’re ok with this, right?
Go look it up yourself. An obnoxious prick like you doesn’t deserve a link.
By now, it should be obvious to everyone (even the most hardcore obamadrone) that when he said “yes we can”, he wasn’t talking to us.
How can one disagree with an organization called, “Americans for Prosperity”?
