Obama says time for debating health care is over
Associated Press ^ | March 3, 2010 | ALAN FRAM

Posted on 03/03/2010 11:02:40 AM PST by Free ThinkerNY

WASHINGTON (AP) - President Barack Obama says the time has come to pass legislation overhauling the health care system, asserting that "every argument has been made."

Speaking at the White House Wednesday, Obama said "now is the time to make a decision about how to finally reform health care so that it works" for individuals and businesses.

The president cited wide-ranging arguments for and against it and confronted head-on the accusation by critics that he has been pushing a government takeover of the system.

"Obama said "now is the time to make a decision about how to finally reform health care so that it works" for individuals and businesses. "

Yeah, buttwipe, we've been waiting for months for you to tell us just that!

But seeing as how all the talk has been in smokey, and LOCKED backrooms, we sort of missed some of it.

If you call that dog and pony show summit of yours a "debate", then you're full of what you are shoveling. All that was established at that meeting was;

(1) That you pick your nose in public, and;
(2)that you get to talk longer 'cause "you is da prezident".

When in hell are you going to do something "presidential"?

All you've done in over a year is continue your role as "community organizer" trying to hype Congress into passing yet another damned entitlement which we can't affort.

If you savor that kind of work so much, why didn't you just stay our there rambling the streets of Chicago and having orgasms listening to Rev. Wright's diatribe?

You are NOT the head of the House or Senate...THEY are the Legislative Branch, YOU are the (cough, cough) executive branch...such as it is.

Yes, it is time to make the decision, and the decision the American People have made is that the bill in the senate and house is bad, is the wrong way to “fix” our system, and should be scrapped.

He’s the guy that asked congress to a meeting so he could “hear their ideas”, and talked more than all the congresspeople combined.

Dear Governor Perry,

On March 30, 2009 the Texas House of Representatives passed HCR 50 affirming that the State of Texas claims sovereignty under the Tenth Amendment.

You have publicly supported this bill, and stated that attorney generals from all over the union could be getting ready to sue the US Government.

We are asking you to take the lead.

We are asking you to order the Texas Attorney General to publicly begin working on a law suit under Article IV, Ninth, and Tenth Amendment of the Constitution.

We are asking you to protect the citizens of Texas that we will not stand for government controlled healthcare in our state.

Under your leadership we can effectively kill the proposal of this administration and allow Texas to be a state free from socialism and collectivism.

Be the voice of reason in the national debate and allow Texans the ability to solve the problems of our state.

Thank you,

(Signature Date)

Facts about the 10th Amendment:

The Tenth Amendment (Amendment X) of the United States Constitution, which is part of the Bill of Rights, was ratified on December 15, 1791. The Tenth Amendment restates the Constitution’s principle of Federalism by providing that powers not granted to the national government nor prohibited to the states are reserved to the states or the people.

HCR 50 HAS PASSED THE HOUSE 99-36!

HCR 50 HAS PASSED THE HOUSE 99-36!
Affirming that the State of Texas claims sovereignty under the Tenth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States over all powers not otherwise enumerated and granted to the federal government by the U.S. Constitution, serving notice to the federal government to cease and desist certain mandates, and providing that certain federal legislation be prohibited or repealed.

Take Action! Before it is too late!
