This guy is just beautiful. He makes a perfect case against big government. He sounds like a Freeper because he understands the proper role of government. This is a great clip. A liberal trollop blows up screaming something about she having read the constitution.

Politicians don't give a damn, it's all about the pay check and their ego.

[Maelstorm]

No it is about power.

This is the money quote from Whitehouse in his reply to the gentleman’s assertion that the federal government has a history of failure in creating and developing programs:

“It has not all been a disaster.”

LOL.

They're examples of SSI and Medicare are ridiculous, both will be bankrupt in 2-10 yrs and so will DeathCare.

What does NASA have to do w/healthcare? These guys talking points are pure spin. Pray for America and Our Troops

I say let them pass it. After i ask them one simple question. When this turns to sh!t, will your insurance cover bullet wounds from my 2nd amendment.

“To secure the blessings of liberty.”

This entire “experiment” with the Townhall meetings has awakened many from their slumber and is one of the best things that could have happened during the current presidency.

That said . . . logic and reason are not going to sway the hopey-changey-feelies.

I just saw a detailed health care financing presentation on the three bills on the table now, Senate, Congress & Tri-Committee.

All won’t even make it to implementation. They are washed up, failed concepts from decades ago. There is nothing there to even amend that would make them work, even the infamous “co-ops”.

They will blow up and send health care into a decade of total chaos. Don’t get sick.

[Maelstorm]

Yes that is true but we don’t need to change em. We just need to make sure there are more of us and there are. Also there are strong emotional cases against any belief in a government run health care system.
