Obama's news conference live.
"Multiple tests by doctors waste money. And I'm going to change that. If there is a blue pil and a red pill and the red pill costs twice as much, I want discriminating consumers to select the blue pill."
I am not making this up. Obama is incoherent.
"We had the bank bailout. We had the recovery package. People are saying, 'Look. I'm cutting back.' Let's understand that the same must be applied to healthcare. When I came in, we had a deficit and the US had lost trillions of dollars of wealth. That all just went away. We had 700,000 jobs being lost. So we created a recovery package to stabilize the economy..."
"Multiple tests by doctors waste money....."
Yeah, well, arsehole, tell that to the lawyers who SUE doctors for not giving adequate tests! IDIOT! Where is the TORT reform in your piece of shit plan?
..." And I'm going to change that. If there is a blue pil and a red pill and the red pill costs twice as much, I want discriminating consumers to select the blue pill...."
Oh sure you righteous SOB, you have already SAID you will do anything to keep your own families care the BEST....so we know that YOU will be administering red pill that is NOT the generic PILL ...right, barry?
I am sick to death of this gasbag building his illegal, immoral and illogical pogroms on nothing but strawman arguments. The simple fact is that he is chasing a socialist America, under his direct and immediate control. Healthcare is merely his latest battle in this war on freedom.
His plans will drive us further into debt that is already at levels that we can never hope to repay.
This garbage must be stopped...and, it must be stopped quickly. I see that Pelousy thinks she has the votes to pass it, in the House. It’s time to burn up the phone lines to DC. Let your Congresscritters know where you stand, and demand that they stand with you. They need to be reminded that they work for us, at our leisure, and only with our continued support (votes).
It’s time to take back the country.
My last Tweet: This sideshow may be the death of BHO’s healthcare plan.
>> So if I’m allergic to the blue pill, will I be able to get the red pill?
Depends.
How old are you?
What color are you?
Who do you work for? Business, or government?
How do you vote?
Who’s yer daddy? heh, just threw that one in for fun, I don’t think it matters... but I COULD be wrong...
Damn, that was quick! LOL!
We can make a very good start in 2010. Congress has been behind much of this—being the naive bumpkin he is, he deferred to Congress on the Porkulus, which was a huge vote-buying slush fund for them that they designed. Take Congress away from him by a sizeable margin in 2010 and the Goof-in-chief is toast.
I’m wondering how many are gonna die by the time 2012 comes along. Multiple tests won’t be allowed, crap I am screwed then. I suffer from chronic constipation(suffered all my life) and a few years ago I needed a colonoscopy done and I needed it done a few times because I wasn’t empty enough for the doctor to see anything. If it were up to Obama, it would be one try and that’s it, if they miss something, oh well, my fault for not being empty enough. Good God, Obama won’t be satisfied til we are all dead
and conversly, have you ever known somebody who had a diagnosis from a test that was serious, and then another test a few months later and problem was gone?
It’s also about doctors ordering more tests than are absolutely necessary to cover their butts against possible lawsuits. Again, tort reform would go a long way toward solving that problem.
He had a stated presumption that both were just as effective. < /gagging at having to defend Obama>
He didn't say what would happen if the blue pill works for most people, but not for you, would you have to call you Senator to get you a special exemption from the Bureau of Red and Blue pills.
Doctors seem to have no idea what prescriptions cost, which is a big problem. They should have at least a general price list to know that one drug is $100 for a treatment program while another is $4 and then decide with you if the $96 is worth it.
And second of all, when ever will O-hole ever have to be told HE (or Michelle, or the First Punishments) should take the blue pill???
HE WON’T EVEN BE ON THIS STUPID RATIONED HEALTHCARE PLAN!!!
Government Healthcare: “You will take the crappiest, cheapest option, as we have to save money for others.”
Who the he11 do you appeal to when it’s government? You are totally screwed. No legal recourse, no other option because once you’re in the government plan you can’t leave.
It’s the Hotel California of Health Care.
OBAMACARE: Once you’re in, you can’t get out.
Screw the government. It’s time things must change, but it ain’t what Obama is talking about.
It saved my life. Bite me Obama.
I'm pullin my hair out, yelling at my TV and yelling WTF IS HE TALKING ABOUT!!!!!!!!
I know the general public that’s he’s trying to talk to has longed ago turned him off. He’s so boring and rambling it’s impossible to listen to him. I’m curious what the ratings will be.
I thought so. It sounded like a strawman.
The problem is that some people respond better to the BLUE pill while others respond better to the RED pill.
The only way to find out is to try them both.
You won't be able to do that under Obamacare.
Like posted earlier, Biden's magic 8 ball will decide which pill is best and you will have to deal with whatever result you get.
