Best Attack Ad of the Week
Thursday, July 23, 2009 at 10:00 am
It’s got to be this one from OurCountryDeservesBetter PAC. It cites “Obama’s own doctor” as an opponent of President Obama’s health care plan, even though Dr. David Scheiner wants a bigger and more expensive plan than the president. It cites Dick Morris and his wife Eileen McGann as health care “experts.” It’s nearly as good as the political action committee’s “Thank You, Sarah Palin” ad from last year. (Watch after the jump.)

I finally saw the new Harry and Louise ad last night, during Colbert of all things. Someone's wasting their big scary ad buy on the wrong audience.

Just like everything else obama is for or does…..it is all about control
everyone with common sense knows obama's health care plan is bad for america

America has the best health care in the world,keep the goverment out of it
OBAMA WANTS TO DESTROY AMERICA BY SOCIALISM,RATION HEALTH CARE,QAULITY WILL DECLINE,IF YOU ARE OLDER THAN 60 UNDER OBAMA'S CARE YOU SHOULD JUST GO DIE SOMEWHERE……AMERICA ,WE MUST STOP THE OBAMA-NATION !!!!

The Government will have the power to murder citizens legally if this goes through. They will with hold treatment that can save your life because your not worth the cost. I believe they will also with hold treatment from babies and younger people if their cost is high. If it is good enough for us it should be good enough for them. Of course they exemp their selves
Under his plan they would have let my son who was in a coma due to a car accident die. Under my ins. plan he got care and lived. I don't want to be sent home to die or watch it happen to my loved one's when there is treatment available. Shame on Obama and the rest in Washington for even thinking about this.
If it goes through you will see a lot more death in this country sooner than it should happen.
The booming business will be cemetaries and funeral homes.

Great news!
We do not want Socialized Medicine in the United States. I served overseas in the United States Air Force, and many of the countries had this type of medicine.
It was rationed, as the one in Congress is advocating for, and the pea counters determine your value not as a human being, but as a dollar figure, that is why on page 425, the requirement to counsel the elderly on their options to include suicide by Doctors of Death, the same as in Europe is discussed!
What right does the government have in this issue to begin with?
They are overstepping, as this administration has done, their boundaries as outlined in the Constitution! And we are all getting a rectal exam, while hussein searches our body cavities for money!
Not to mention, in the same Socialized Medicine bill, it allows for the murdering of millions of babies through abortion.
Now if you take the current statistics of whom gets an abortion, which are predominantly, poor Black and Hispanic women, with hussein and DIRTY HARRY REID endorsing this bill, they are at the same time advocating for the genocide, repeat, the genocide of the Black and Hispanic races!
Read also, Ruth Ginsburg's article whereby, she stated, when she supported Roe v Wade, she assumed, that it meant, that the “undesirables”, such as those in prison, predominantly Black and Hispanics would be the ones aborted!
So, in reality, in her own words, she support Roe v Wade, because, she thought, this issue would ensure the genocide of the Black and Hispanic races, as well.
Read the two documents, one the Healthcare Bill and then read Ginsburg's article, where she was interviewed under the title “women in the court”!

Are we supposed to believe that Madoff and co is offering us a better solution? Does the 'Right' not understand that in our current system a greedy capitalist decides who gets care and who doesn't. I would much rather a for the people government was making the decisions than what we've got now which is a for-profit middleman.
Jeff, if you are actually in the Air Force as you claim, why talk about other countries socialized medicine when you are getting it here?
Anybody care to venture a guess as to why the GOP is falling?

please don't let this health care bill pass. it is inhumane to the elderly. we have the best health care system in the world – let's not ruin it. there are many methods that can be utilized without destroying what we have. i don't want the government making my health care choices. i prefer to choose my doctors and confer with there medical advice on how to proceed. what in the world are the obama people thinking? i was disgusted when he won, and now i really know why.

If the Government Healthcare is going to look for cost effectiveness, do you think they will allow hundreds of thousands of dollars to be spent on premature babies who may have disabilities for the rest of their lives?

Largely because all the democrats did under the Bush administration was bitch, bitch, bitch aand cry, cry, cry. and the American people for some reason bought into thier crybaby attitude. I think that Americans are comming arroun and realising that it was largely the democrats that got us into this mess. Since the Democrats regained controll in the Senate and the House our economy took a turn south and we are still going south with the democrats in ncontrol of all 3 judicial offices in the USA. in Nov 2008 we elected the most corrupt govt. we have ever had. 9 times out of 10 when we enter a recession it is because the Democrats are trying to regain controll of Congress and or the White House and so they intentionally cause a recession and conveniantly blame the Republicans for nthe recession . When in reality the Democrats are the real culprets. Awise man once said NEVER TRUST A DEMOCRAT. The recession we are now in is evidence of what I am talking about.
