A useless war and all that money could have healed a lot of people. Morons who don't understand this are...well...morons.

I repeat, Weekly has blamed the economic debacle on the Iraq War.

Weekly also has conveniently ignored the fact that Obama has spent at least as much as Bush did in 8 years. All in 1 year. Kinda makes you miss bush:)

Maybe I'm not in porn, dumbfuck. See my sig - I buy and sell domains, some of which happen to be adult domains. And my situation wouldn't be so bad if I wasn't having to help support family and friends who have lost their fucking jobs.

So you're telling me that Obama was 100% correct on focusing for nearly a year primarily on health care reform when the economy is in the toilet and people are losing jobs and foreclosing left and right? Because it's good for the long-term future? Do you have any idea how many people would simply love to be able to afford to continue to have a home next month for their spouse/children and themselves? That's kind of vital to their children's long-term future too, ya think?

Health care was A problem. It was not the BIGGEST problem. It was affecting a segment of the population. The biggest problem is affecting nearly ALL of the population. Oh yea, and just a few years ago my brother had, without insurance, been treated multiple times at hospitals without paying a dime for it. His credit was already in the shitter so having creditors after him to pay the bills doesn't mean shit to him. So ironically, even with the kind of person who WOULD be helped by this bill...

(and before you say anything, no I do not agree with his approach, think he was being a leech on society or whatnot, but it shows that people without health care could get some health care for free if they knew what to do)

I'm not sure if Obama has done a single thing right yet.. I mean if someone can pinpoint something (not someone with the IQ of an amoeba), I'm willing to listen.

You guys have to remember that the majority of Americans voted for Obama. A whole lot of the reason they voted for him was for health care reform. Tonight he delivered. The people demanded it and he gave it to them. Not many politicians do this.

nobody is gonna pay down the debt. The last POTUS to wipe out the debt was andrew jackson.

Robbie's got the best points here. it really doesnt matter that it passed. without cost controls, forcing the poor to buy insurance with government subsidies is only going to bankrupt the government faster. The only good thing is maybe the dems can move on to fuck up bank reform.

Yes it is a sad day for America...

Of course, Weekly's stupid ass is ignoring the past year, when the majority of Americans not only did not want Obamacare, but now disapprove of his presidency. Way to present facts dumbass :)

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

Youre a fucking moron. I hate people who have no idea what they are talking about. Keep taking orders from the Republican talking points. All this talk of law suits and taking it to the Supreme Court is absolute nonsense.

It is law now. Live with it. :2 cents:

They already did, in the form of Clinton, although incidentally. Where do you think the subprime mortgage crisis came from?

The left should indeed be celebrating as they have officially destroyed the constitutional republic that the founding father's created. From now on no one can realistically say that there is even a theoretical limit on government power in the US. A very very sad day that will live in infamy. :(

There, I fixed that for you. Because he has disappointed the hell out of me.

I was hoping he would do even half of what he claimed during the campaign. But so far he hasn't seemed to take charge on anything. The health bill is all Pelosi and Reid.

He didn't write it or even help on it.

My only gripe with Obama is that he doesn't seem to be in charge yet. For his sake, that better change before the next presidential election.

It's actually not law yet, shows what yet another stupid liberal knows. Keep watching CNN dumbshit:)

The Iraq war that Rumsfeld and the Bushies told us would last no longer than 6 days, and cost around $2 billion dollars... based on WMDs and Iraq's fake involvement in 9/11.

Add $2.5 TRILLION lost to unnecessary tax breaks for the richest of the rich, and suddenly we're talking about $3.5 TRILLION added to our debt, and the righties are crying about the healthcare bill costs.

Where were you when Bush handed Big Pharma HUGE tax breaks, with no way to pay for them?

Hypocrites!

And once again, Obama's deficit spending have made Bush look Jewish :)

Dude, I am sorry you have failed in your business. However, this bill will do more to fix the economy than just about anything else I can think of. Here is the box. Think outside it. Nothing else has worked. Someday you will look back at tonight and will not tell your kids that you thought it was fucked up. Why? Because they will just accept medical care like we accept running water. Think about that.

Apparently he is now.

You can't think, that's your problem.

Btw, I added your quote in my profile because it was the dumbest thing I've heard thus far, dumber than thedoc which is saying a lot.

While you're at it, please tell me how a "health care bill" is supposed to fix the economy? RORLFORLFORLF what a fucking idiot.

i like robert gates.

Uneducated majority...No worries, it will be held up in the court system and never see the light of day, then in Nov the demotards will be gone.. It will be repealed. I have already changed my taxes to not pay any fed tax so you will be paying for me. When the IRS comes knocking I will just lawyer up and settle for pennies on the dollar... LMFAO...:thumbsup

He is already done...

You're only going to confuse Weekly with facts.

That is true. Weekly is so stupid he doesn't realize how much we are all going to have to pay for this. I am happy that 36 of the states plan to fight this.

Talk about bias ... you bring the skin color of Obama into something where his skin color is irrelevant.

I'd love to know how many Canadians you actually know. That whole "I know Canadians" dribble is nothing more than "I'm not racist because I have a black friend."

You're pathetic.

I'm helping to support my family - I'm not married or have children, I'm talking about parents/step-parents, brothers/sisters, even friends. If I wasn't fortunate enough to have gotten into domains when I did and found major success with it, I can tell you that more than just my brother would be living on the street right now (oops, in his case he's living in his car - my bad). If I was supporting only myself like what someone single my age would be doing in an avg economy would, I'd be passing with flying colors. So fuck that part of your quote, buddy. Stop making some shitty fucking assumption/judgment. Maybe your family is one of the few that hasn't been affected by the economy - if so, congrats - want a fucking medal?

That's besides the point anyways. Tell me exactly how this helps the economy NOW. Helping it in the long run might be great, but tell someone who's about to be living on the street in a couple of months who omg happens to not be sick with anything major YET how the past year of focus on this bill has helped their lives. "Nothing has worked" because nothing was tried - he was focused on this bill instead of working to find a solution or perhaps trying something that might work. This could be the greatest solution to health care the world has ever seen, but tons of people will still be losing their homes and will be jobless, and most of those people won't give a flying fuck about this bill.

Also, don't put words into my mouth like I can already tell you probably will - I do NOT blame the problems of this economy on Obama. Bush clearly fucked the country up due to the Iraq War among other things and Obama would have to reverse the momentum downward from the bank failures etc. in addition to building momentum upward. That said, he got elected just as much because he said he could fix the economy (and because everyone was scared to death of McCain dying = Palin as president), and it's such a more widespread problem affecting so many more people than this health care issue that he should have been PRIMARILY focused on THAT instead. But no, he saw the vast majority dem congress and senate and thought "shit, this health care reform thing will be a breeze to pass" and thought wrong, then rather than let it rest until later and shifting focus on something more important that he should have been focused on anyways, he basically waged a several month campaign to get health care passed. Hey, great.

So when tons of democrats get voted out in the next elections, Obama can wonder why the people are so pissed at them after they passed the almighty health care reform bill.

Prediction....

Largest turn over in the next two elections ever seen.

And the people saying "Its now law"... time to exit the discussion because you are clueless. :2 cents:

His term is 25% done.

Do you judge your entire day based on how things are at 11 AM?

Did you completely NOT understand that? How retarded are you? What does his skin color have to do with anything? Calling him a black bush means he's fucking up the economy like bush, and he's BLACK. I can't believe I have to explain elementary school concepts to grownups. No wonder you're in this business.

As opposed to saying "we" as if you speak for the entire population? +1 for logic and objectivity:)

Well, there goes the liberals lol

Why are you wasting time with someone who thinks the economy is collapsing because of the Iraq War?

Sure kid...."lawyer up" and see what the IRS does to your sorry ass.

Actually he's right. The IRS usually settles. Do you live in America Weekly? Are you human? I don't think human intelligence can sink this low.

Of course you are going to have to pay for this, moron. You think life is free? I am sorry that your business is so bad you can't afford it. You might reconsider your life choise. Porn is not for everyone. You have to be really good to survive this shit.

No Weekly, it's only free for the poor:)

Actually it is you that is clueless. The HRC bill will be signed into law on Tuesday by Obama and will be the law of the land. The battle has been lost. Not sure why some people in this thread seem to be blissfully unaware of that....... perhaps because it is too horrible to comprehend. :(

Uh I think she was clear in what she said. It's not law until Tuesday, so until it passes, technically it's not law. It will be a law that never sees the light of day though.

No, they don't get it.

A very good thing.

HAHA apparently neither do you, reject.

Your funny... And just to stupid to argue with... like most demotards... by the way, as soon as black jesus signs it I am going to make an appointment at the docs office just so you have to pay for it... LMFAO...

Yes it is...

Yeah, good points BFT3K!

You're my favorite poster here! :thumbsup

Not me....but you might have cancer. Treatment cost....1.5 million dollars. But hell, that won't be me.

The Democrats also voted to go to war in Iraq.

The stock market hit record highs while Bush was president. Apparently, The tax breaks helped the economy until the price of oil pushed gas prices to $4.50-$5.00 a gallon, causing people to stop spending money, thus pushing the country into a recession.

And before you and everyone blames Bush for the last 4 years, don't forget, the Democrats have controlled both houses of Congress for the last 4 years.

Before you call me a Republican or anything else, Im an Independent. I vote for the candidate, not the party.

I think the media is already going to derail obama's parade. Interviews today all stated that people are confused why he would spend so much time on healthcare now...with our economy and lack of jobs in the toilet.

LOL...in your dreams. You might be confused, but I would not state that publicly...unless I was....hmmm....confused. Fucking right wing radicals. Low information voters.

Oh noooo, nobody is blaming Bush. He was great! He was a fine president for 8 years!


.... in Bizzaro World!

The stock market is populated by gambling addicts that have little or no respect for you or your life. Why do you, as a low income earner, think that this is a good thing?

maybe but I do live in the media capital of the world...and I am sure the same programming is syndicated in your town. :1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh
