Ignorant liberals and their unwavering support for the downfall of health care

Isn't this what tarted this country? Are we being represented or are we being ignored?

They are biting off way more then they can chew and they are spiting it in our face.

It's certainly frightening how bad this is becoming. Thank god many are voicing their frustrations at these townhall meetings, though the media and government has tried to claim these people as people who just want to interrupt the meetings no matter what. A blatant lie and disregard of the first amendment for us citizens. You are right. There will definitely be hell to pay if this passes. They are not listening to us at all.

this is healthcare DEFORM straight up!

Let's suppose for a moment this pile of dog-do is passed in ANY form ... wait until some closet KKK member gets in office and has the controls. Boy won't that just be great.

Liberals aren't just ignorant, they are severly short sighted!

Great rant, Eric.

BUCKLE IN Eric!!!!!! Obama has charged SEIU with DISRUPTING our protests. Be ready for trouble because at some point, this WILL erupt. Ladies be careful and gents deal with it as you see fit.

Their shortsightedness will hurt our country for years. Even if this passes and screws many, I'm wondering if they'll blame Bush?

Exactly! They're scared people actually know and read the bill, more than the representatives who are defending the bill.

Bush won't be blamed, you and I will! It's our fault that liberty and freedom are at the core of our belief system. We are the "they," according to the life-time residents of the House and Senate.

Good point. The democratic party seems not to defend American values right now, sadly.

Good blog, Eric! Bill Press also wrote a disgusting editorial somewhere on the internet, maybe RealClearPolitics. Couldn`t get past the first sentence.

There was a prison riot in Chino, CA, last night. They also set fire to the joint. 40 inmates were taken to the hospital with head injuries, stab wounds, etc. Guess who will be picking up that tab? Although I am sure many of them were just in the wrong place at the wrong time, some of them are surely drug dealers, child molesters, gangbangers, armed robbers, car thieves, homicidal maniacs. Great to know they are getting the best of care, paid for by the very broken State of California. (They can check out, but they can never leave!)

Our system treats pretty much anybody. Changing that doesn't make much sense to me. Improving it does. I wonder how many of those inmates were legal citizens!

I guess these mobs are the product of Bush and Cheney. Maybe even Mrs. Beasely the dog.
I am so tired of this crap. I saw that loon woman on Hardball calling the protesters "dumb racists" who can't handle a black man being in the White House. WTH! They keep trying to play the race card. Sick of it. And by the way, is there really a black man in the White House. He seems to be jet setting all over the place and never in the White House!!!

I've always noticed the race card is played when they have no rebuttal. Those with Obama seem to be losing excuses and rely more on attacks and false media coverage.

It's great how dads who are wheeling their disabled kids in, or seniors who look like they should be playing bridge are somehow deemed "an angry mom". The DNC ran an ad that goes beyond anything I've ever heard. We need to keep fighting. The country is on edge. If this gets rammed through, we're toast. Gov't programs are never revoked.

have a program that is defensible, all you have left is attacking the people who are pointing out the facts. Anybody else notice the difference in the signs the protestors are carrying? The people against gov't hc, you know the ones organized by the right-wing 'machine' are all handmade. The spontaneous proponents of hc, the union thugs are all carrying prepared machine printed signs. Coincidence????? Yea riiiiggggght.

Good point. This cannot be passed. More people are learning what this bill really is and their cries are being heard by other citizens. Very few politicians are listening though, and the representatives phones are being swamped with questions. Let's keep it up. We can't sit back without a fight.

It's funny and ironic that most of the protests of ignorant individuals given money by the rich have actually been by the left for the past 8 years against our previous administration. Then, they pay liberals to mess with conservatives on websites, such as this.

The left are so hypocritical it'd be funny if it weren't our countries future at hand.

I enjoy reading TH columnists but usually skip the comment section anymore due to the troll takeover and then the repeated slams of the obvious trolls by the regular conservative posters.

I find it much more enlightning to read these blogs. Questions can be asked and answered. The few trolls that do show up usually go away because they are generally either ignored or soundly refuted with facts.

They can't be hypocrites when they have no moral compass to guide them.

By the way, congratulations to you and the new Mrs. Eric. May you live long and prosper. And may God bless you richly with the peace that passes all understanding.

Thank you!

I also like the TH columnists, but as you also said, I barely comment anymore as well due to trolls stinking up the place with no point other than to attack.

I keep coming back for the blogs as well. I was very happy to find this site so full of intelligent, articulate, and concerned Americans. Whether or not they agree with me, the blogs are usually great sources of civil discussion, with a few humorous jabs! Thanks for reading and I'm glad you can comment.

It seems the race card is getting played too much. Maybe if the media would do their job and stop butt kissing, the people might actually get informed.

And speaking of informed, please someone fire Robert Gibbs. Blame it on cable news. What an idiot.

Gibbs reminds me of a student who didn't study for a test. He is unable to replicate any talking points by his party, yet alone try to dismiss what they have said earlier. You are right.. a true idiot.

may be a complete idiot, but he's bo's idiot.

We should set Gibbs up with Biden to see who is nuttier.

my mother into a nursing home. Trust me, those old timers are waaaaayyyyyyy more sane than gaffes and rubber. At least these folks are content to sit and watch a test pattern on tv. They aren't trying to take over the world like an old episode of Pinky and the Brain.

I also think old folks know more of whats going on than Gibbs and Gaffes. I saw an article earlier today of the mistake the dems made missing the points of the elderly and their thoughts on the health care bill.

I'd like to see Obama, Pelosi, Reid, or Gaffes tell my Grandma who has cancer that she can't receive the medical care she needs due to rationing. It's like a very slow euthanasia.

to see congress and the chattering-hloier-than-thou classes lead by example. They can go on the proposed system, show us how wonderful it is, than I'll think about it.

I noticed when Obama was asked that question he dodged it and had another question asked. I've heard similiar stories with other senators and congressmen/women, etc., and they all do the same thing.

could have done would be to travel to Canada or the UK for his prostate cancer treatment. The statistics for cure rate of this kind of cancer are staggering. 5years+ Canada/UK are around 60s-70s%. USA high 90%. But THEY are SO smart they can do this better than anyone else in the whole wide world that failed in it before us. I think it's arrogance, not cajones.

That's probably why the also passed the stimulus bills, as well as the government takeover of GM, Saturn, AIG, Cash for clunkers, and the possibility of a bill on fake science in the cap and trade bill.

They are truly arrogant. They knew it would fail and previous bailouts here and around the world have failed. I feel like we're yelling at brick walls.

I always love their argument of us comparing this bill to Canada's. If the bill passes our health care system will be very similar to theirs. They argue that it's comparing apples to oranges. Beside that comment this guy said that there is no comparison because right now our doctors are better trained and diversified, as well as better paid and you have the option of less waiting and further opinions from other doctors.... yet this guy wanted this health care bill to pass.... I was wondering if this guy realized that he just gave our current system a very good grade.. It's people like this who have NO IDEA what the bill is and think we'll keep everything the same, but just get health care handouts.

Insanity elected this president.. Insanity supports this administration's bills.

has coined the phrase 'zero liability voter' they vote themselves the perks, but none of the payments. I also think it was Mencken who said "There are more people voting for a living, than working for a living." Fox news did report this morning that the townhall meetings are having a big effect on the independent voters. People are speaking up more and voicing opposition to HC and also cap and trade and taxes.

We aren't down yet and we're fighting back respectfully yet hard.

I'm glad Fox reports this. I wonder if those that have heard from the other news channels actually believe that those that oppose the bill are nazi's, mobster, etc. I think people are seeing the bullying tactics used by this administration and are realizing how wrong that is.

so eloquently questioned arlen spector recieved a threatening call on her CELL PHONE. Do you know how hard it is to get someone's cell phone number??? Makes you wonder who had a hand in this. Hope she calls and makes an official police report of this.

Glenn Beck has said to bring video cameras and cell phones to all events. Tape, both audio and video, so there is an independent record of events.

Being an old fart, I'll need to get my daughters/granddaughters to show me how to use the camera/video functions on my phone.

The polls are showing that more and more people are hearing the facts and bo's popularity and job approval numbers are dropping.

kind of reminds me of Joe the Plumber. After asking simple question he's attacked on all fronts... Obama's servants kind of remind me of the nazgul from Lord of the Rings, ringwraiths! No will of their own except to serve their master ruthlessly.

The camera phone is easy once you figure it out! Just give it a couple of test runs beforehand.

the ringwraiths, but now that you mention it, that's them completely. More analogy, now that you have me thinking....Soros/Sauron the one who would possess them all to rule over all. Sheesh, it really starts to get creepy. I always saw the Biblical parallels when I read Tolkein, now it's getting creepy.

Yup, I figured cell phones would be easy, I just need to take the time and someone with greater tech knowledge to nudge me along.

Yeah, parallels between Tolkien and the bible have been written about, and C.S. Lewis and him were friends as well. When I read your comment earlier the ring wraiths were the first thing I thought of!

I even have a little trouble with cell phones. After some experimentation I usually succeed! Then you have 13 year old girls who know the ins and outs of the phone like an engineer! And I thought the things I grew up with were technological.....
