   At the end of the day will Obama sell this plan to the American people? I doubt it. Obama wil likely pack this speech with “facts” that will be repeated by his supporters. If Obama says you wont have to wait in line for heathcare, this becomes a “fact.” If Obama says you can keep your current healthcare, this is repeated as a “fact.” If Obama promises better care at a lower cost, this becomes a “fact” b/c after all Obama himself says so. For the first time since he burst on the scene, Obama is losing the PR/message war and its killing him and his supporters. I love it.

    How is the media going to explain the stark contrast of past town halls with the crowd overwhelmingly supporting Obama in this one? Aren’t there big insurance companies and high level republicans who are paying citizens to “disrupt” these meetings and cause problems? If that were the case they *certainly* would have had some of their “hired” help at this Town Hall meeting.
    This event will likely serve only to show more Americans the truth about who is *really* astro-turfing.

    That number just keeps growing. If Congress doesn’t pass this bill soon, we’ll have more uninsured than we have people.

    He must be counting all the people on Medicare, Medicaid, S-Chip, and all those others who get their health care paid for by the gov’mint as not having insurance — because all those illegals are NOT “uninsured Americans.”

    Sadly those numbers on uninsureds are not fuzzy math – while we diddled and failed to secure the border, an extra 10 million or so illegals crossed over. Add that to the 20 million already here (and the millions more that will invade if Obamacare is passed), and we’re talking about some hefty numbers of Future ACORN Members “uninsureds.”

    Of course, to call them anything but Paper-Free (Green, maybe?) Future Americans is patently racist…

    Highlights from a Sun Times article today about BHO’s “town hall” meeting in Portsmouth:

    “Lori Hitchcock will introduce the President. Lori Hitchcock is a 52-year-old, single, self-employed Portsmouth resident who was diagnosed with Hepatitis C in 2003. No insurance company will sell health coverage to her because of her pre-existing condition and as a result she has been uninsured for 2 years. (There is a state program that would provide health insurance, however at $750/mo and a $500 deductible Lori is unable to afford this coverage.) While she continues her self-employment, she continues to look for a job that has health coverage (due to the state of the economy she is currently working temp jobs to make ends meet) but hasn’t had any luck yet. Lori lost her husband in 2006 to Hepatitis C and is the mother of 2 grown children – her daughter is currently raising her family in Portsmouth and her son is raising his family in Atlanta.”

    Probably just a random selection…

    For example, Medicaid frequently pays 40% or less that the usual fee for care. Last I heard government programs paid the prevailing (top dollar) wage regardless of whether work is done in poor neighborhoods or not. Why doesn’t this apply to health care work?

    Um, excuse me, moonshot, but those in the conservative “Side” (funny thing is, a lot of these people are saying that they are democrats) are being a heck of a lot more civil and rational than those on the left. Red paint in the face of the Sec’y of State? Rushing the stage at a speaking engagement for Jim Gilcrist? Chanting and banners at a speech by Rep. Tom Tancredo, totally disrupting the speech. Now, fast forward to these town-hall meetings: nobody is rushign the stage, nobody is unfurling banners to obscure the speakers, nobody is getting in Pelosi’s, or Spectre’s, or any other elected Democrat’s face with paint of any color: they are merely wantign their voices heard, and in stark contrast to the left’s ways of doing things. Hardly soemthing to keep children away from….

    I repeat…I would not let my child near ANY of this crap on both sides.
    I don’t do protests but if I did…I’d never ever even think of exposing her to something I can’t control. BOTH sides behave like asses and I don’t want my daughter to see adults acting like immature fools when they don’t get their way.

    Moonshot, what I’m trying to tell you is that those who are opposing this Obamacare Monster are not being unruly like the libs have been, and they certainly aren’t acting like donkey’s hinds ends as you assert. Liberals have been, yes, and did quite often during the two terms of President Bush, but from what I’ve seen in videos? The people who are “protesting” merely are responding to assertions that they know are lies, and because the libs are locking them out, and trying to squelch their free speech, they are shouting. How much should the opposers of this helath care thing take? Should we all just shut up and take their lies, their falsehoods, and let the liobs do their tyhings to the good, upstanding people of this nation? Thanks, but no thanks. As someone else posted, when my elected representation start telling lies, and bring in the thugs to silence me, that is going to make me shout all the louder….and yes, children should see that, see what this country is becoming, see whow the liberal left carries themselves so that they know how to behave better…

    What outrage? I simply said I would never have my daughter around idiots and that’s not gonna be something that ever comes up. I don’t do protests and I keep my daughter from as much ugly as I possibly can…like you.

    One thing I am noticing with all these meetings…they are very short on facts. When questioned about a specific, the answer invariably is “that’s not true. Next question”. They continually tell us what is not true, but do not offer proof. We need to have the specific reference and page number where something is said. And we need to read it word for word. Then they need to explain why it doesn’t mean what is on the page. There is absolutely NO trust of this government. Obama says he doesn’t believe in Single Pay, even though he is on video saying that he is…on more than one occasion. Is he nuts??? Does he think we don’t KNOW he is lying and acually have proof of it? Or is he just saying that to his sheeple who haven’t heard the tapes and blindly believe everything this lying crapweasel says? At any rate, the majority of the people are no longer buying what he is selling.

    Something like the Tea Parties is a completely different story.

    I never in my life thought I’d type that sentence, but it’s true.

    How *dare* he state that Medicare isn’t going to change. That is simply a lie. A bald-faced, flat-out lie.

    The new plan REPLACES Medicare. It *has* to. Medicaid, too.

    His lies are so weak, but his delivery is so strong. It’s sad, really, to see Americans lap this sewage up and think they’re drinking champagne…

    Note well — Obama admitted REJECTING federal government insurance when he was in the U.S. Senate — it wasn’t good enough for himself and his family.

    He used his WIFE’S private insurance.

    And the “public option” insurance is worse than the insurance Obama rejected for his own family …

    That’s exactly how he got elected. He has within him absolutely nothing that tells him lying is wrong, which makes him to the weak a very convincing liar.

    There are people in this country who would stand and cheer if Obama said that he would present a bill in congress to have everyone live like North Korea. Of course, many of them probably think NK is in Europe. The naive and gullible always make for good audiences as well as useful idiots.

    When is the public and the media going to demand that these propaganda shows stop. These are not town hall meetings but stage managed propaganda shows put on by government employees.

    One could make the argument that these so called town hall meetings are illegal.They are using Federal employees to lie to the American people by cherry picking people to ask pre-screened questions.

    While I agree with most of the criticisms of the Post Office (and I have a lot more than most), it is officially a quasi-private company with a government subsidy for health and retirement benefits. Its biggest problem isn’t that it’s run by the government, or even that it’s tied irrevocably to a declining industry (written communications). The problem is that it is totally dominated by unions.

    I hate to break it to you Scotty but the public IS behind these “propaganda shows”. And you might want to check with the constitution about whether they’re legal.

    I get what you’re saying, but it might be more accurate to describe it as a government owned corporation. In that, it is very similar to other “stellar” GSEs like Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, AIG, GM…
