while ultimately, you should only care about medical advice that comes from your doctor, I think the video is right that this will most likely lead to reduced insurance coverage. Which I hope wasn't the point, the government has used health care to sell out women enough times the past few months as @ACrimaldi pointed out. View
ghoulish indeed. if anything this move will attract more support for universal health care. View

GO SENATE!!!!!!!!!
People with no medical care, like millions of Americans, experience an overall deterioration in their health with an increased dependency on government subsidies to survive. This causes a significant drain on the government financial resources. When these uninsured attempt to pay their own medical bills, it takes a terrible toll on personal and family finances, often causing bankruptcies. Further, these individuals lacking proper health care contribute to the increase in risk for the spread of infections, as well as, the increase in morbidity statistics and chaos in the health system overall.

glen beck and research team are doing a wonderful job exposing truth because it affects the world.he has a brilliant mind to bring facts into focus.his program is to keep america strong.[with continued pattern of government and spending]the crash is going to be far worst than 29 and much much longer in duration.those with their head in the sand you will wake up and "remember" glen beck was trying to open their eyes and ears. many americans don't know and don't want to know the truth concerning obama and congress.they are not representing the legal tax paying citizens by defrauding us of income.why should we pay each congress approx. $174,000 [and retirement] to spend our money excessively and fail to vote on bills to hide the truth so they will be re elected.the ego and restless driven obama is flying here and there to more countries than any other president in history...while leaving us in a nightmare of failed government programs,a failed congress, airforce one and the other backup planes are costing millions upon millions in fuel rather than dealing with america's problems,families without a homes,food,jobs. clean out those in congress who voted on this health care plan because it will not work. the gov. doesn't have a business track record to prove worthy of managing anything including [three programs] medicare, medicaid or soc. sec. before dreaming of taking over america, the banks, auto industries, insurance companies and more to come. they should fix [first] that which is broken.medicare doesn't work, why try another health care plan that happened over night with locked doors. how are people going to pay for insurance when they lost their home, their job. the tax payers who pay congressional salaries of $174,000 is the congress who will fine you for not paying for insur. or send you to jail. just make it simple,hospitals should not admit you if you can't pay. it is our responsiblity to take care of yourself.if anyone needs to go to jail investigate and clean out congress corruption.

House down, senate and reconciliation to go.
Its about time we as a nation realized cooperation benefits everyone more (in quality, price, and coverage) than blindly pursuing our own interests when a resource is of critical importance.
Will it cost money? YES, I and I am the first to volunteer to have my taxes raised. I'll gladly pay for something we ALL need. Just like I gladly pay taxes to pay for the USPS, public roads, police, and our military just to name a few things.
All those lamenting socialism need to look up the word. We've had socialist programs for centuries. This reform only proposes to add a new resource to the list of those that are so critical and widely needed that they should be socialized to provide the most coverage and efficiency. In fact basic health care is already socialized and rationed via the mandate that no one can be turned away from the ER. What we have currently is just an extremely inefficient way to go about it, thus the reform bill. View
Lauren, people get passionate when it comes to their ability to receive health care...it is their life. I get passionate when I realize my hard work is helping those who arent working as hard and it wasnt my choice to donate to them. View

People are really up in arms about this. I can't say I would expect health care to draw such a buzz, but I guess people get passionate when discussing how we want our tax dollars to be spent. View

Using the term "political rangling" in your final comments regarding the health care bill is judgmental, negative and stirs emotions of people already in a highly charged emotional state fueled by a media who choose to manipulate events for ratings over presenting them in a truthful way. Because of the way media reports events, the American people do not think or reflect on what is happening, they react with emotional frothing incited by media manipulation. Truth is no longer valued by either, just fuel for the fight for being "king of the mountain". View
dude's kinda been busy, two wars intense opposition pressure, health care, civil division over social issues, a decaying economy, and a million other factors have kept him from pursuing large portions of his campaign platform. Give him some time. View

To Susan
Thank you so much for "informing" me on what you think is true and right. I am not a liberal, I am neither a conservative or a liberal, but listen to all sides and make my decisions. But Glen distorts the truth. Anyone who can stand by Cheney after he lied over and over again on MANY things and then when questioned about things claims he can't remember 71 times he is either dumber than dirt, a liar, or suffering from dementia and thank the Lord he is not holding the office of VP any longer where he could have been made commander in chief if somthing would have happened to the President.
All sides should be discussed on matters but to lie to get people on your side is criminal. To scare older Americans about "death panels" and not being given care they need because they are too old is a total lie and he should be ashamed of himself for saying it. Just give us the TRUE FACTS and let the people decide for themselves about what needs to be done on health care in America as wll as other matters facing us at this time. Our system needs to be overhauled. The insurance companies are robbing us blind and health care is second best, not to mention the drug companies making drugs so expensive many people can't afford them.
So thank you Susan for your concern. I have listend to Glen and the other hate mongers (who despise Democrats) and then researched and found the things they said are distortions and sometimes bordering on lies. Maybe YOU could spend sometime listening to the ALL sides and make informed decisions.
Don't bother to reply I will not be on this site again. Can't change your thinking even if I think it is bogus. HAVE A NICE DAY. View
