full transcript at www.theuptake.org President Obama gave a landmark, sweeping speech on health care reform to the American Medical Association in Chicago. More so than at any time before, he explained his vision for comprehensive reform that addresses every weak point in our health care system. It is a vision that implements best practices that have allowed some towns and companies to cut costs by as much as half compared to others. It is a vision that makes sure everybody has access to quality, affordable coverage, whether your family hits a rough patch or you have a pre-existing condition. It is a vision in which patients’ and doctors’ interests are aligned. And it is a vision where Americans’ choices of doctors and coverage are maintained, and they also have a choice of a public option that can help keep private insurers honest. It is a vision that focuses on prevention, making sure Americans stay healthy throughout their lives. Hyatt Regency Chicago Chicago, Illinois 11 AM CDT THE PRESIDENT: Thank you so much. Good to see you. (Applause.) Thank you so much. Please, everybody be seated. Thank you very much. You’re very kind. (Applause.) Let me begin by thanking Nancy for the wonderful introduction. I want to thank Dr. Joseph Heyman, the chair of the Board of Trustees, as well as Dr. Jeremy Lazarus, speaker of House of Delegates.

    @jacksonwaspedo Additionally, AT&T noted that the benefits packages are subject to substantial alternation in the next few weeks. AT&Ts announcement, on the heels of similar announcements by Caterpillar, John Deere, AK Steel and other large American companies, is more evidence of the negative economic effects from Obamacare. Reuters broke the story a half hour ago

    I wounder how many American citizens were aware of the evil and deceit behind the new healthcare bill. This new bill made RFID microchip implantation law through the healthcare system. In 6 months time, All/any American citizens will be required to have an RFID microchip surgically implanted within thier bodies in order to use the healthcare system. Amazing!! I beleive we all need to come close to Jesus Christ and build a relationship with him, our saviour, and look to him for redemption.

    My dog sleeps about 20 hours a day.
    He can eat whenever he wants, 24/7/365.
    His meals are provided at no cost to him.
    For this he pays nothing, and nothing is required of him.
    He lives in a nice neighborhood in a house he didn’t have to pay for
    He goes to the doctor for free
    Someone else cleans up his mess.
    He receives these accommodations absolutely free.
    He has no expenses whatsoever.
    His costs are paid for by others who earn? a living every day.
    Holy crap, my dog is a democrat!

    That is just false my friend. There are very heated arguments and opinions in what is happening politically in America, especially at the result of this election.

    What entrenched culture you talking about? American Indian culture, which has been here for thousands of years? Or the one that was created with American Indian blood on it’s hands? That culture? If you are white, then you are a descendant of Europe moron and your European culture is much, much older than your American culture. Get the facts straight asshole.

  13. ImOfNope says:

    Forget it people. The bill is basically dead and anything anyone can get out of it will be peanuts. So much for sweeping health care. Nobody really cares, by example the way Mass voted which is a shocker. But I guess we shouldn’t really be shocked. I mean it is the American way, right? Screw each other, to get ahead. That’s the message I’m getting and the one’s suffering the most are the one’s without healthcare. Funny how people come to Haiti’s rescue, but not their own.

    Ha ha, all you naive idealistic young people who voted for Nobama will have to buy health care Ins or pay an annual 750.00 fine, there goes a good chunk of your disposable income to buy your xbox games, party money on the weekends, a better car, better Nikes, downloading lady gaga songs, extras for you ride, and money for your honey, hahaha

    why does this have so few views? as an american, i believe that it is shameful how quickly americans lose interest in politics after an election.

  17. hadenufnow says:

    Yeah, why would a foreigner waste time on a USA site touting reform to us when we are the ones in the US..?
    Our history is rich…..Our Constitutional Principles are Entrenched in our culture..
    We’ll take care of our misguided folks here thank you..
    Fix your own country…
    I wouldn’t trade for anything…
    See ya wouldn’t wanna be ya..

    `America`is only free for those wealthy assholes fuck them. It`s wrong & unethical to capitalize on peoples diseases for sure, but then again yo have no ethics in the US, you butt kissers just bow down to anyone throwing money @ you.

    Lame cowards

    ” We can’t make laws that don’t let people to make their own choices, that’s communist. If sally wants to get rid of the baby inside of her it’s her choice. ” It’s too bad that unborn baby won’t ever get the chance to make a choice…

  20. Coullion43 says:

    If it wouldn’t be for Free America , none of you liberal foreigners would be able to post your venomous rants against the USA on YouTube.

  21. Coullion43 says:

    Cheerio to you, too. Still mad that we whipped your countries’ ass TWICE. (1776 & 1812) ? I assume you are a limey…

  22. Coullion43 says:

    Catholic and proud of it. And there are ALWAYS choices we make in life that affect others, for good or evil. Some people do not pause to think or hastily make a choice before mulling it over. That’s how we can be decieved. God will judge us ALL as a nation on the choices we have made and will make now…

  23. DrDaveHardy says:

    Oh well, it’s time to just kill capitalism anyways. It just doesn’t work.

  24. airholeahole1 says:

    You are not deciding this , don’t be so paranoid, you pay taxes because thats what the state requires you to do, your not accountable for everything they do with your dollars, you know in your heart that this is wrong, there is no blood on your hands, the people who choose to die make that choice without you in the room, it’s not your call, your not accountable for it, if you were we would no where all our tax dollars go, and how many of us know that in detail, nobody, you must be catholic!

  25. airholeahole1 says:

    Hey it’s airhole again I agree with you on this topic about the euthanasia, but you know what man, we can’t make laws that don’t let people to make their own choices, that’s communist, I know I lived in Romania for my first 15 years of my life, if sally wants to get rid of the baby inside of her it’s her choice she will be accountable to god for her choices not to you or I, we can’t make those laws, gay marriage, abortion,are all choices free people have, not up to us to decide through mans law.
