Here is video of a combative and arrogant President Obama today speaking to the AFL-CIO where he declared the time for debating Health Care is "over." "It's time to act."
Obama said in a rather condescending voice, "The debate has been good." But he went on to make his statement that Americans have debated this enough.
Obama then called "lies" concerns by anti-ObamaCare opponents about the impact of Government-run Care on the seriously ill and other matters. He then said opponents have no plan of their own, which is absolutely not true, and he knows it.
I don't think President Obama gets to decide when something has been debated enough. Remember, Obama never wanted this debate. He intended to ram Health Care through in less than two weeks' time prior to the end of July. But the outcry - including from "Blue Dog" Democrats - kept him from doing so. Obama's speech today makes it clear he is wounded and angry, and he is going to try and ram something through Congress. His combative tone appears to signal how the Democrats will return from their month of listening to Americans. I don't think the Democrats and the President intend to heed what they have heard. . . .

He’s speaking to the unions not the people. What a con man he is!
“Something wasnt right about the guy...just my impression.”
My wife and I said the same thing while only being able to stomach about ten minutes of his rambling, twitchy diatribe.
He was faking some sort of jive/country shucks and by-golly accent that was bizarre to say the least, and continually touching his face. It was weird.
Isn’t this the second time he said for people to be quiet ... do I have that right? Something about getting out of the way or something like that???
He always looks like he is watching a tennis match....
Getting the enforcers worked up again I guess. AFLCIO, Acorn and SIEU troops being called upon?
Exactly Obama is so Partisan in everything he is doing basically saying far left wing radical way is the only way. The debate is over, and then saying the Republicans don’t have a plan....
That is why he is tanking in the polls because anyone that can think for themselves can see right throught this charde.
“Mack Daddy the Zebra” reading to his paid for slaves.
Obanumnum declares HC debate “over”? You are hog tied this massive FAIL community organizer in chief. Narcissism is your best attribute.
If it’s over, why is he making another speech about it?
“They don’t have an answer”???
OH Really???
Here’s an answer - keep your sticking federal government theiving fingers OFF OUR EEALTHCARE !
Hey Barack!!!! You ain’t the boss of me. I’ll let you know when I am done debating.......
