Protestors, supporters line Obama event

I support universal healthcare. I am obese and have high cholesterol and high blood pressure. My doctor tells me to stop smoking and lose over 100 pounds. But I believe in freedom. So I will continue to smoke and eat doughnuts and be fat. Thank you, President Obama, for protecting my freedom and giving me free healthcare. I should not have to lose weight and lead a healthy lifestyle. I should be free and enjoy the government doing for me. I'm too fat to work so I think you should tax those who are healthy enough to work so that I can lie around and eat. And I would suggest, Mr. President, that you get some more game shows on during the day. I like the soaps but more games shows would be nice. And free beer would be kind. Thank you, Mr. President.

P.S. Mr. President, can I use Food Stamps to get my General Motors Cadillac serviced? And I'd like a loaner car. Thanks again.

"Health Care is a commodity, not a right! Say it ten times a day"

Then neither is making money, but we defend that until we are black and blue.

Stop being a greedy, self-serving conservative monster and open you mind a bit. There is no way our nation, any nation, can survive or prosper without healthcare. Eventually, those that have not will out number those that have... which is when strife/war/unrest breaks out. We watch it over and over and over again throughout the world. Nations, Companies, countries...this happens to them all becuase one group thinks they are superior to another and uses it's power to establish legislation and practices to keep them in power.

Universal Healthcare is cheaper, better and covers everyone.

Do some research. I'll get you started..

Ever notice how Obama always has his "town hall" meetings in the middle of a workday? Is this a way to minimize the number of productive citizens who will be available to have their "voices heard"? Why are his hand picked attendees not busy at work?

I am white, I did not vote for Obama,Not because he was Half Black,But because he was being over whelmingly supported by many socialist, The Country is basically Broke,The reason all this talk about racism in this country today is because the media, especially the socialist electronic media, just can't seem to shut up about Race, they are doing more harm to Race relations, than good. If I were Black I would be just like other Blacks I would really believe Racism exists, where it actually does not
When I talk to people I never think about Race, and I do not think most other people do either, as long as they keep fanning Race the more they are poloarizing our citizens i think most people are opposed to Obamas Health plan is because they do not think this country can afford it.

I think it is wonderful to see citizens voicing their opinions about the President's proposed Health Care reform. Whether you support or oppose reform, our freedom to peacefully gather in opposition or support of our governing bodies is undeniably a beautiful part of Democracy. The strength of this Democracy rests in the people exercising their rights and voicing their concerns in a civilized manner, not blindly following the crowd in the acceptance of a policy or program they may not entirely agree with for one reason or another. Don't be so quick to make opposition sound so negative just because YOU agree with the issue at hand. With ANY major issue, there is going to be opposition on both sides of the aisle, not just the GOP.

As for my opinion, I am trying to become as informed as possible about health care reform. What I do know, is that I am a 23 year-old male who eats right, exercises, and takes the steps most people are capable of taking to remain healthy. I found a quote from a young man in a similar life position I find myself in today that I believe sums up my feelings on health care reform...

"I work full time. I live on my own. I pay my own bills. I go to the gym four days a week. I choose to eat healthy. I choose not to drink or smoke. I choose not to pay for health insurance. I save as much money as possible. I don’t owe anyone anything. I’m not “in this” with anyone. I take full responsibility for my actions. If something happens to me and I’m not able to pay for it my only choice is to rely on charity. The government cannot legislate charity. I take the constitution and bill of rights literally. I have the right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. I do not have a right to a job. I do not have a right to medical benefits. I do not have a right to social security. I do not have a right to your money, nor do you have a right to mine. I was born with the same opportunities as everyone else in this country. My life is not perfect, and neither am I. I make bad decisions but I don’t ask you to pay for them. Each day is a gift from my Creator and I try and use it for His glory. I live in the greatest country in the world. It is great because it is free. I am free to be poor, rich, miserable, happy, strong, weak, dumb, smart, saved, or damned. What have you chosen?"

I know I cannot speak for those Americans with terminal illnesses, or those Americans who can no longer take care of themselves. However, I know that with all good intention the government has, problems will arise that will cost Americans more in the long run if Health Care is nationalized.

Obama the Messiah favors speed in passing all these "crisis" bills, never enough time to actually read the bills....I'm Late,I'm Late...like the Rabbit with the Clock in Alice in Wonderland. Make momentous decisions in haste, repent and greive at your leisure. This guy hates Capitalism, hates our Constitution and makes it his business to spread class warfare at every opportunity. We are already repenting and greiving about the first "crisis" bill, the $750 BILLLION bailout bill, sold under one set of claims, filled with pork, earmarks and fraud, lots of our money for ACORN, and not a penny spent for the stated purpose. Insanity may be defined as expecting a different result while continuing the exact same actions.
For my Insane Chapel Hill friends and other lefties, I am delighted to be able to tell you that we citizens have learned our lesson...and it only cost $750 Big Ones. Never again!
We have read this bill, in all its variations...and it stinks. 15 Million Illegals with FREE HEALTHCARE. What signal do you think this sends to the Central Americans who have not yet crossed our Southern Border? What would you expect as end-of-life advice from a government agent? Exactly how do I explain to my aging mother her DUTY TO DIE, no hip replacement...just take the pain pill.
This monstrosity will give the USA CENTRALLY PLANNED HEALTHCARE, with government enforced "Progressive Values"...government-encouraged abortion, government-encouraged euthenasia, daily class attacks from the president and his CZARS. Think carefully again...what kind of country do you want for yourself, your Mother...and your children??

I'm so glad Obama brought us all together,
race relations? Mission accomplished
Budget? Destroyed.
socialized health kontrol? Something half of us can agree on!
Jobs? Who needs jobs!

Pick some more super polarizing issues.

At least he ended all those nasty wars and closed Gitmo. oh wait. that's right... record deployments and record bloodshed. Hmmm. and we're trying that old extraordinary rendition trick... only no one wants the terrorists... gitmo stands.

I am proud of my President and what he seeks to accomplish for all Americans, and I am saddened by the lack of thought and honesty which is championed by his opposition. I am continually amazed by the ignorance of those espousing the opposition arguments. How can this opposition make our Democracy stronger?
