CNN ^ | 2010-03-24

Washington (CNN) -- President Obama on Tuesday signed into law a sweeping health care reform bill, the nation's most substantial social legislation in four decades, achieving a top priority of his administration.

Greeted by applause from enthusiastic supporters, he said, "Today after almost a century of trying; today, after over a year of debate; today, after all the votes have been tallied, health insurance reform becomes law in the United States of America."

The president said he is confident the Senate will improve the health care reform law swiftly. He said some health care reforms will take some time to phase in, but others will "take effect right away."

The last time I saw a President try to “unburden” anyone was President Gaius Baltar before the colonization of New Caprica and that did not work out very well.

He's got his dates wrong. The Communist Manifesto was published in 1848.

he's going on the road again for it -

Isn't it time to tell this Johny One Note that we have a few other things that need attention - like JOBS, for starters....

He's going to the Kennedy Space Center on April 15 to expound on his great new ideas for the space program = the one that will put 7,000 of them at the base out of work in Sept and result in 36,000 losing their jobs in the area (businesses dependent on the Space center) plunging the area in to 15-20% unemployment - while he has instructed NASA to send the saved money to ‘predominantly Muslim countries, starting with Indonesia (the country he considers home)...to train them and bring them into the space industry - teach them how to build rockets too - how many more Irans?

“Some 7,000 space industry workers will lose their jobs in Florida...”

http://www.floridatoday.com/content/blogs/space/2010/01/boeing-lays-off-36-workers.shtml

Repeat that in Houston, also losing thousands of jobs: a democrat
speaks out

Send the money to the Muslims -

This reminds me of OJ going out to find the real killers. BO will play every golf course in America until he’s convinced everyone that this bill is a good one!

Liberals / socialists always sell the Utopia as Christmas gift to the people, but after buying the Utopia people always wake up with the Nightmare After Christmas.

Notice how no one at the White House is waiting for the Reconciliation Bill to be voted on and signed before they start running around touting their great accomplishment! They could not care less and never cared about the fix bill, except to the extent it got a couple gullible liberal democrats (synonyms)to vote on the ugly Senate bill.

This group is so screwing the Congress. Remember just a couple of days ago with demon pass. The whole purpose was to make certain the Senate would pass the fix bill. Guess what. Doesn't looks like anyone cares anymore. Bill is passed and nothing else to see here.

The White House is happy with the Senate bill and no energy will be put in to get the fix bill approved in the Senate (as is) or back in the House if the Senate makes any changes. And, no one will call him out on it.

Priceless. Our only hope is that they will remember this when he crams through cap and tax and amnesty. (Wishful thinking)

I don’t get how he could have signed it already? Doesn’t it still have to go back to the Senate...and...I read that if they change so much as a comma, it will have to go back to the House??

you post: “Cut off $600.00 per year to Direct TV today. I told them Obama and Nancy have left me no money for luxuries.

I meant to do this before, but it was a good day for the TV to die.”

You can get your TV free online - turned my satellite off in Jan 2009. (They will give you at least a 6 month 'extension on suspension" so's you "won't lose your account and can have it turned back on . they "extened my 6-months" 3 x's now, in hopes of luring me back. Nope. gonna keep that money.) Love that money in MY pocket - now watch my news free and my shows without commercials - so only half the time to watch - and watch them on MY time schedule. (Isave up 3-4 weeks of "24" so's I can watch them all in a row ;o)...)

here's a few links to start with

http://www.fox.com/24/

http://www.hulu.com/

http://dsc.discovery.com/

http://video.pbs.org/program/979359625

http://www.zahipedia.com/2009/07/01/watch-online-fox-news-live-free/

http://www.foxnews.com/

for opinion shows like Beck/Greta/Bret - scroll all the way to bottom - they sill be a day delayed.
We were able to watch Fox news live up until about a month ago. All other news outlets are still available - but FOX has been been blocked for live showing. Hmmm? But a day late is still better then the others and CHEAPER than paying for cable/satellite...(and you can still get on time clips on the net)

In case you missed the first 100+ speeches and don’t understand what he is doing for all of you, he is on the road to explain it to you idiots again./s
