In a speech to the AFL-CIO, the president accuses critics and special interests of using scare tactics and spreading 'lies' in healthcare debate.
Reporting from Cincinnati - In a combative Labor Day speech, President Obama said that the healthcare debate had gone on too long and accused opponents of spreading "lies" meant to persuade Americans that his proposed overhaul would cruelly deny care to the elderly.
The president, speaking at an AFL-CIO picnic, said that "special interests" were determined to "scare the heck out of people.

did anyone see beck today?..it will finish jobs and small business in this country
“Obama says” is that similar to “Simon Says”?
So he is recycling his speech? Figures!
Back in July Verizon said it was cutting 8000 jobs by the end of the year to ‘control costs’.
Healthcare reform is being touted in order to ‘control costs’. To believe it won’t cost jobs is insane.
Well, if he said so it MUST be true! tool
There’s lots that can be done to reform health care, just none of your wacky ideas will do anything other than harm the very system you intend to ‘save.’
[In a speech to the AFL-CIO, the president accuses critics and special interests of using scare tactics and spreading ‘lies’ in healthcare debate. ]
So in a speech to a lying special interest called the AFL-CIO, Obama decries lies and special interests??
I saw his speach - Classic demagoguery!!
I saw his speech - Classic demagoguery!!
“it’s time too act”
Obama’s healthcare-con..... has been nothing but an act.
Zero can’t ‘act his way out of a paper bag’.
Drive a stake through the bill’s heart.
Obama is scaring the heck out of people, and dong a damn good job at it.
Just look at section 431 of HR 3200, the so called health bill, which ends all IRS privacy between federal agencies, the IRS and HMOs. Why is THAT necessary in a "health care bill?"
Simple, you get sick and you will pay, pay , pay,according to fees set by the amount of income and assets you have, not according to the medical services rendered.
And special intersts are scaring the heck out of people?
Buahahahahahahaah!
Obama YOU RETARD, you are scaring the heck out of people and they are fighting back. GOOD!!
Scrap HR 3200 for the social control piece of $hit that it truly is, and organize a real health care plan that will work, with the supposition that Health Care is a duty, NOT A RIGHT.
And destroy small business.
But in his speech, Obama did little to clarify matters.
Yep, that's our boy.
He's correct in a way. If you accurately quote Obama or his comrades, you're spreading his lies.
Did sample Beck today and his special presentation on small businesses dying out hit the nail.
Well the word has to get out about what the Obama White House is trying to do to ruin this country.
It needs to be done NOW in order for the illegals to be able to pickup their ObamaCare cards before they begin heading home for the holidays.
i have a question...oreilly just did a bit on acorn turning up at town halls to lobby for obama healthcare. why are we being forced to pay acorn fed tax dollars to show up at town halls? is that legal
People are onto Obama, they do not trust anything he says anymore because everything has been a lie. They read the bill and then they hear Obama say something that is opposite of what the bill says. Notice now the town halls and tea parties are not just about healthcare, it is about not trusting the government because they are finally seeing the radical nightmare half of them elected. There is nothing he can say to turn them around now, I think it is too late for him, but I do fear they do the nuclear option against our wishes. Revolution is coming.
lol this is take over plain and simple ...it will break most small business who are alread strappede....the arts got more stimulas than small businesses.
He is on the ropes folks
That should not be legel at all, ACORN should be busted by the RICO laws but they are not.
Then why is he proposing removing $500 billion from the bankrupt Medicare program?
...A sign Obama is sinking fast.
I sense an opening coming up
how do we get someone to bust them
Why is it “time to act on healthcare”?
America still has the best healthcare or medical care in the world. Course it’s not cheap. You can thank the lawyers for that.
I doubt if anyone is going to drop dead next week in America because of a so called poor “healthcare” system.
Obammy’s politics are probably going to kill more Americans than our current healthcare system.
What I never understand is how he can say Medicare/Medicaid and the VA are all Effed up, so we need the gubermint to run healthcare.
Fix what you started Libtard!

Dear Governor Perry,
On March 30, 2009 the Texas House of Representatives passed HCR 50 affirming that the State of Texas claims sovereignty under the Tenth Amendment.
You have publicly supported this bill, and stated that attorney generals from all over the union could be getting ready to sue the US Government.
We are asking you to take the lead.
We are asking you to order the Texas Attorney General to publicly begin working on a law suit under Article IV, Ninth, and Tenth Amendment of the Constitution.
We are asking you to protect the citizens of Texas that we will not stand for government controlled healthcare in our state.
Under your leadership we can effectively kill the proposal of this administration and allow Texas to be a state free from socialism and collectivism.
Be the voice of reason in the national debate and allow Texans the ability to solve the problems of our state.
Thank you,
(Signature Date)

Facts about the 10th Amendment:
The Tenth Amendment (Amendment X) of the United States Constitution, which is part of the Bill of Rights, was ratified on December 15, 1791. The Tenth Amendment restates the Constitution’s principle of Federalism by providing that powers not granted to the national government nor prohibited to the states are reserved to the states or the people.
HCR 50 HAS PASSED THE HOUSE 99-36!
Affirming that the State of Texas claims sovereignty under the Tenth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States over all powers not otherwise enumerated and granted to the federal government by the U.S. Constitution, serving notice to the federal government to cease and desist certain mandates, and providing that certain federal legislation be prohibited or repealed.
Take Action! Before it is too late!
....And that is the problem, D.C. has become a sewer full of corruption. This is why we the people are going to have to do, with the help of folks like Glenn Beck and all the talkradio show hosts and sites like FR, ete, have to do what D.C. cannot or will not do, clean D.C. out.
The only action I want to see on this is ...
PULLING THE PLUG!!
“but I do fear they do the nuclear option against our wishes. “
I’m not sure he will find 50 votes for the nuclear option. That’s really asking alot of congressmen and women that are facing reelection. Why on earth would they want to go down with BO?
No, more a kin to Obama says = Monkeys flying out of orifices.
He'll surely apologize for the arrogance of America which has caused the normally peaceful and misunderstood religion Islam to feel compelled to lash out at us in their own self defense./s
Heyup.
Remember, friends, Hussein WANTED THIS PASSED A MONTH AGO--WITHOUT DEBATE.
Everything since then has been a shuck and jive show to act like he wants to "debate" the subject.
The stimulus was passed just the same way, and look at the disaster that has resulted.
Never never never never give up!
We are acting, Hussein—Americans are standing up in droves to stop your fascism.

His teleprompter changer guy had the day off for Commie Day.
You are right! He is just a puppet of the real ones who
are pulling the strings, like Soros,the Bilderbergers, the whole gang who meet in PRIVATE up in the mountains somewhere.
ROFLOL! That was good!
I know there are the upper echilon union thugs - but what about the 'regular' guy & gals with families. Don't they believe this Obama charade will hurt their families as much as it will hurt the rest of us?
Are there any FR union members who could address this?
