So to say I am shocked does not begin to describe how I feel right now. I feel like I missed something in the constitution. So thoughts, concerns, rants?
Please keep any debates civil.

I'm not shocked one bit. The Constitution was thrown out the window close to 4 years ago on day 1. Sad day for the USA.
wellington said:The one thing I really don't understand. How is it that Obama is blamed for the economy? Has everyone forgot that idiot Bush ruined us! With the way Bush done this country in, something has to be done. The job situation sucks, which in turn makes a whole lot of people out of work and out of insurance. I don't mind my tax money going to help those who have tried to help themselves, but I am really tired of my money paying for the lazy SOB's that just want to sit on their asses and collect a check. That's where most of our over paying for insurance and health care goes, the lazy. The lazy that rolls up in a limo at Cook County Hospital(now Stroger hospital) in Chicago for their hospital appointments, we are paying for. Also the lazy person from Indiana, that some how gets away with going to that same hospital on my dime. Personally, we can all blame Bush for this mess and be thankful that at least Obama is trying to get it straightened out. Good or bad plan, I think a little of both. Is there a better plan, most likely.

I think it was in the process of being thrown out before then, but it got exponentially worse around the time you are referring to.

He hasn't done much his entire term, then out of nowhere starts making random changes at the VERY LAST MINUTE to hopefully get re-elected for another 4 years of nothing? you're very right about lazy people taking advantage of the system, and the system being a sucker enough to encourage MORE people to be lazy, but what has Obama done besides sit on his pedestal and take a load of vacations? When the economy goes down he blames it on how it "already was" (when he said he was going to make changes he never implemented..), and when economy goes up he takes all the credit? Gas prices aren't down because he did something right, it's because no one can AFFORD gas so demand has gone down! *sigh* now this bill he has passed is just the cherry on top of his little campaign scheme... Instead of pointing fingers and blaming, why don't we just fix the damn problems without all the games??

Jacqui said:Neal, wasn't your wife just currently in a hospital? Don't you have a baby currently going for well infant check ups? So we don't need health care at all? Hmmm interesting. Even living "well" does not mean your not going be needing health care.
Jacqui said:When was he given a chance to do anything?? OF course sadly he did start to act like the other guys like Bush with all those vacations and things your right. If we had let him try, perhaps he could have gotten us out of the crap we were in when he was elected, but no we had to act like a bunch of spoiled little brats who did not get their person elected and made sure this one could not live up to his full potential. I for one am very ashamed of how we as Americans, behaved so poorly. We do not deserve to even be called Americans any more.
So true stop pointing fingers and allow the person WE VOTED IN TO STAND FOR US do his job.

Psh...we could have handled it just fine without any health care.
(I'm being sarcastic hence the in my original post...but still. It's good advice considering the cost of obesity in America)
