Blah, blah, blah, Lie, Lie, PERIOD.
Let him apologize all he wants. I think it’s great that the SRM is reporting it. It reinforces the message that Obama can’t be trusted.
Never should have apologized....
The point all are missing is if they don`t kick out all illegals or change the law to allow the refusal of treatment to illegals then they will get treatment and we the taxpayers will pay for it.Its illegal to refuse medical treatment to anybody right now.
.
Everything these liberals do is about transferring money from those who work hard for it to those who vote democrat.
Read just pages 16 - 19. Then marvel as the Commander in Chief just lies his arse off over and over again about how you get to keep your health insurance if you want to.
And illegals? POTUS has PROMISED that, next year, they won't BE illegal anymore. They'll be on “a path to citizenship”. Presto! Legal! Covered!
Im not sure it was a lie, from the bill:
Page 143, Line 3, Section 246: “No Federal Payment for Undocumented Aliens. Nothing in this subtitle shall allow Federal payments for affordability credits on behalf of individuals who are not lawfully present in the United States.”
I think it’s lame that he apologized and just shows what pansies these politicians in Washington are.
Who cares if it was rude to call Obama what he is, during his speech...the democrats boo’d Bush big time during his an as rude and insulting as that was, NO ONE apologized to Bush.
Who cares if people didn’t like that someone called Obama out...someone needed to.
It was the truth and it needed to be said!! And it’s a shame an apology was said at all, IMO.
He owes his apology to his colleagues, for his breach of protocol.
He should not retract a word of what he said, though.
Steven Camarota, he knows perfectly well that illegals do and will get free healthcare on our backs. Period. End of story.
The Usurper lies. The press covers.

Fast-forward to about 45:50 to see it. And at 46:05, take careful note of who you see in the lower left corner of the frame.
Hint: he didn't vote "present" this time.
There is nothing wrong in challenging our leaders — they are not kings or god-men.
Go to UK or Australia and hear how the government is harshly and loudly ridiculed by the opposition in parliament every day. It is entertaining to watch the rhetorical brawls. It is only in our system that we put on this fake “be nice” attitude.
Everybody knows that O is a liar. Lying is what Democrats do. Remember how Clinton was praised for being an “extraordinary” liar? For these people truth is constructed by those in power. They are in power, so if illegals can get coverage indirectly all the president has to do is assert the opposite and it is marvelous.
"You vile piece of white trash. How dare you demand healthcare?"
Ohaha wants it both ways: The final legislation will SAY no coverage for illegals BUT it will also prevent checking on the citizenship status of any person seeking healthcare. That's what prompted Cong Joe Wilson---he knows Dems voted down these provision in committee. The end game is that vote-hungry Dems will kneel in obeisance and suck-up to illegals b/c they NEED those votes to stay in power. Read on.

Government-Run Healthcare: A Prescription For Failure; Paying The Price For Illegal Care
IBD Exclusive Series | August 21, 2009
FR Posted by Kaslin
Democrats are right that uncompensated emergency care for the uninsured is driving up costs. What they don't say is it's illegal immigrants who are bankrupting ERs, and the federal government is encouraging them.
Last decade, the Clinton administration added teeth to a little-known Health and Human Services Department regulation mandating that hospitals provide emergency treatment even to illegals. Under the Emergency Medical Treatment and Active Labor Act, or EMTALA, hospitals can't ask for a patient's immigration status or ability to pay prior to delivering treatment. They also can't keep such uninsured patients waiting, even if their problem isn't an emergency. Nor can they discharge them until they're fully stabilized and have safe transportation. More, hospitals must post EMTALA signs in Spanish and English.
The law isn't limited to ERs. Hospitals must accept illegals at any facility on campus — including outpatient clinics and doctor's offices — located within 250 yards of the main buildings.
Hospitals end up treating uninsured illegals for the sniffles and other nonurgent care, and pass that exorbitant cost on to the insured, the Government Accountability Office has found. Resulting overcrowding leads to delays in "care for patients with true emergency needs." (Excerpt) Read more at ibdeditorials.com .....
=======================================
OBAMA CON JOB: Obama keeps saying "ObamaCare is not going to insure illegal aliens EXCEPT that the several bills floating around do not have verification provisions to make sure illegals can't apply and get benefits." And Obama surely knows (doesn't he?) that our courts have ruled repeatedly that hospitals cannot turn illegals away from emergency rooms
Vote-starved Dems will lose the Senior Citizen vote (when they realize what socialized Medicare means). So if Ohaha does get his socialized medicine atrocity passed soon, amnesty is a must. Ohaha and the Dems are greedily eyeing all those new votes----illegals here, and those pouring over our borders for yet another gov't freebie.
