Obama says time for debating health care is over

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.

I guess I must have missed the debate. Even at his recent beer summit, he hogged 2/3 of the time and whenever anyone questioned him he told them to shut up, the election’s over.

Nor, as yet, has there been any discussion of the health bill in congress. It was written in secrecy, and no direct debate has been allowed.

He will be lucky if HE isn’t gone!

Unless they find he committed some crime I think the only way Obama is going to leave is through the vote. And if that vote is close he will challenge it all the way and create another division in America the way Algore did.

However, I believe that if we could get a couple million people to protest Obama's socialist, reparationist agenda at the White House, and a several million in other places, then that would stop him cold. Because then even his own cronies in the Senate and House would back down from his health care nightmare. When people rise up and assert their rights, politicians back down.

He called all the doctors and nurses on the dias with him by their first names. Very disrespectful.

Obama has shown that he will do anything to impose his will on the USA. Normal democratic processes won’t stop him and a serious democrat loss in November won’t reverse the damage this bill will do if it becomes law. Maybe five million outraged citizens with torches and pitchforks around Congress and the White House is called for. The 4/15 march if it is much larger and more confrontational could be a vehicle to stop this would be dictator if it is in time. It needs to be made plain to the politicians that the consent of the governed will be withdrawn.

So that 4-6 weeks thing was just another lie?
