    This is just my …
    This is just my point:

    Republicans, like yourself, HATE educated conservatism because Republicans are NOT conservatives!!!!!

    If you believe these known bullshit artists, than you should just hit yourself over the head with a hammer….

    RON PAUL is the most popular Republican, and it’s because he is a true conservative. ….

    …and why …
    …and why regurgitate the administration’s line about their health care agenda when someone who is educated reads the bill, tells people the truth about it and gets more educated people to check for themselves and find out the same truth?

  3. butters8686 says:

    I am willing to bet …
    I am willing to bet that you never knew who Ron Paul wa before he became ‘cool,” One needs to read the source of the debate rather than take the word of politicians, comedians and lazy journalists to truly be educated.
    Dr. Paul went into politics due to the power given to the Federal Reserve under Nixon. I supported Paul, a Libertarian, in 2008 and 1988; he was not hand-stamped by the Council on Foreign Relations like the others.

    Prove that she is a …
    Prove that she is a lobbyist. That is false information. A lobbyist goes to Washington and influences Congress members to vote a certain way on bills. They tend to take Congress members to lunch and give them “gifts.”
    McCaughey does NOT do this, and there is no tangible reliable source that can prove it either.
    It is a lie spread by those who wish to defame a person who actually read the bills.

    I …
    @xiola6969….

    I don’t trust the government either…

    …but I lost my trust when my own party (GOP) lied to me.

    @butters8686…


    @butters8686…

    do you think I am retarded????

    SHE ABSOLUTELY IS A LOBBYIST…

    Don’t think you are going to spread disinformation to this conservative….I’m not some tea-bagging douche-bag.

  7. butters8686 says:

    Actually, McCaughey …
    Actually, McCaughey is not a health care industry lobbyist. The accusation leveled against her by the St. Petersburg Times was false.

  8. treid100182 says:

    Obamacare = what?


    Obamacare = what?

    He compromised everything that, in itself, constituted reform…so what the …???????

    I can’t stand Obama, but this lady is out of her mind…

    she’s also a known healthcare lobbyist…so…

  9. xiola6969 says:

    Regardless if this …
    Regardless if this is lie or fact, its a pretty simple concept for me, I don’t trust the government enough to give them that kind of power regardless who is telling the truth, A great example they send 10 million dollars to hati and then tell me sorry dude we cant give you back that money

  10. xiola6969 says:

    you loaned us for …
    you loaned us for your social security we are going to have to lower your benefit amount when you retire….sounds like something similar that would happen with government run healthcare. i feel for the people in hati but who’s team is the government on ours ? sure doesn’t feel like it. Our founding fathers wanted small government limited government where freedom and civil liberties where respected, how far we have gone astray from that goal.

    THANK YOU BETSY!!!!!
    THANK YOU BETSY!!!!!

  12. Daezydog says:

    This govt run …
    This govt run healthcare takeover bill was deliberately written so that most people could not get past the double-speak. Most people do not think in terms of screwing other people, so it’s impossible to decipher the lobbyist language.

    Thank goodness for people like Dr. McCaughey and Keith Hennessey for laying out this atrocious bill for all to see and understand.

  13. mrspogadaeus says:

    This is the very …
    This is the very reason they want it secret – because if the people knew about it they’d be up in arms!

    By the way, this is …
    By the way, this is an EXCELLENT interview. Betsy McCaughey is brilliant. She read every single word of both the House and Senate bills and she speaks the truth about what’s actually in them. The truth is far more impacting than the left-wing Saul Alinsky-style attack machine.

  15. butters8686 says:

    Thanks to people …
    Thanks to people like McCaughey, a more educated public continues to show its distaste for this bill and the agenda behind it.
    Trying to discredit the agenda’s critics with tired and already-debunked charges of “hyperbole” and attempts to deflect the issue of potential hralth care rationing.
    Much of this agenda and the plan to push it was already exposed in Tom Daschle’s book AND with Dr. Ezekiel Emanuel’s bluepring paper for the rationing of Health Care in the US.

  16. geezlemike says:

    I love it when …
    I love it when people who have no idea whats in the liberals health overhaul just repeat the fabricated and fallacious talking points from a left-wing website. Guess what, killerbrandt? Voters in the People’s Republic of Massachusetts have just spoken out about your government takeover of health care. No doubt liberals will continue to try to force their will on the rest of the country. But the Massachusetts election is heartening proof that they can be stopped! You will be, too.

    Why are libs so …
    Why are libs so clueless?

  18. killerbandit says:

    This ‘interview’ …
    This ‘interview’ has all the class of a late night info-mercial.

    and AGAIN with the death pannels, a shameful straw man from the reich wing. You will be counciled on your choices when nearing the end of your life.

    For example, you will be counciled on all choices if you need a brain tumor removed. The doctor may point out that you could become brain dead if anything goes wrong and in that state you have choices A, B, C or other…. Why are you all so hyperbolic over nothing.

    Booo!

    Every American …
    Every American should be insured and insurable at affordable rates. Mandating health care before correcting the cost problem is putting the horse before the buggy and we are only insuring that the insurance companies can boost their profits.

    Think of it as part of our national infrastructure. We all pay into the public water supply infrastructure and yet there is still a private industry providing us with drinkable water.
