We have to pay the insured’s emergency room costs?
Why not bill THEM? It would be cheaper to pay for collections agencies to go after them.
Death panels is a lie?
Then why did they have to remove it from one of the House versions?
He’s a liar. All of the bills before Congress do exactly what he says they don’t. Does he think Americans can’t read?
Illegals not covered?
But they are PREDOMINATELY the ones who use emergency rooms for routine medical treatment.
What did he say about the rest of us having to pay for emergency room treatment?
A bunch of papers held up? What were they?
Still nothing about how all this is going to get paid for.
It is pie-in-the-sky. He pulls out of one program to pay for another. But even that is not enough to pay for this, without massive government subsidies (taxes).
He commits to not signing any plan that adds to the deficit now or in the future.
“I am not the first President to take up this cause, but I am determined to be the last”
Let’s hope that’s true
That is pure BS.
Medicare Advantage DOES add more care and benefits to seniors than what regular Medicare provides.
He has no idea what he is talking about.
BASHING PALIN AGAIN! SICK!
Talk faster, O.
It’s almost time for Leverage.

Oh...where’s my tissue.
This is gonna be a gusher.
Bailing...
Leverage season finale.
***Medicaid program found to be a strain on emergency rooms***
http://www.reuters.com/article/healthNews/idUSTON88304520071108
“The U.S. government’s Medicaid program for the poor may put more financial burden on overcrowded hospital emergency rooms than the nation’s 47 million uninsured, according to a study published on Thursday.”
"This evening I let my emotions get the best of me when listening to the President’s remarks regarding the coverage of illegal immigrants in the health care bill. While I disagree with the President’s statement, my comments were inappropriate and regrettable. I extend sincere apologies to the President for this lack of civility."
Wilson's apology will be used by the hypocrit left to bash Republicans for being uncivil, but his comment helped ruin Obama's crappy speech even more and harmed chances of HR3200! He's also improved his name recognition for a higher office and renewed anger toward the RINO John McCain who pressured him. He may get some airtime where he can clarify what he really is apologizing for and more importantly, talk about the no illegals healthcare lie. I guess in the end, we still came out ahead.
