[Chuck54]

Did not see a thread.

Give it a go.

All comments welcome. Keep it clean.

[KevinDavis]

Speech still going??

Pelosi stopped blinking so her eyes would swell a bit.

Pelosi can blink? I wasn’t aware of that.

[eleni121]

LOL
- she is one goofy broad.

[Robwin]

This is meant to be the stemwinding conclusion. Nope, he’s boring.

[AU72]

This could the swan song of liberalism.

Can only hope.

[tioga]

I think they were applauding cause they thought it was OVER>...........oh, good. it IS over now....48 minutes long........what a pompous windbag.

[fightinJAG]

Yes, he did. he said ppl were afraid it would lead to socialism - but it did, just not all the way -

[P.O.E.]

Yeah! It’s over.

Said nothing new. Just tried to rally emotions.

[swheats]

No they came to fundamentally change our way of life. With folks that doesn’t want to answer to the American people.

[444Flyer]

Obama is ‘the hair of the dog’.

[Vendome]

I wish I could hear it. Maybe some one will be kind enough to post it?

[whatisthetruth]

Who the hell really wrote this speech?

[whershey]

I agree but I believe people have caught on to his game. I didn’t really hear anything that he hasn’t said numerous times before with no effect. I’m not sure this will have much of one either.

[kjam22]

Just finished. Fox says it was 48 minutes

This plan was never designed to work in the way you and I think of a plan working. Its designed to transfer 16-20% of GDP, more wealth of the country, into govt. hands. Its "the" march towards socialism.

This man has plunged us into huge debt and now he wants more. and too many are just dumb enough to give it to him.

[jwalsh07]

There is no way it will be 900 billion over 10 years. the amount will be at least three to for times that. Look at the history of any other big program like this and than do the math.

Here's the math. Medicare cost about $8,500 per patient. The Chairman says there are approximately 50 million uninsurde that he's gonna insure. That's 425 billion per year. Ten years is over 4 trillion without monetray inflation and bureaucratic inflation.

The guy lies throguh his teeth and calls opponents who point out his lies liars. It's a marxist thing.

In the business world red is a power suit color for women, or at least it used to be, and also for ties on men. In Congress it is the Mao color of the party.

[McLynnan]

Thank goodness that’s over. Hope he can go 3-4 days without a tv appearance and give us a break.
