Obama is a terrible president, and I hope that he only serves one term.

princeofshapeir

As do I. I can't wait for November.

The bill itself was not by any means popular. This November is likely going to hit the Democrats fairly hard. Unless Obama starts to regain support from the majority of the American people, (and this bill has given the pundits enough propaganda to maintain his declining popularity...) he won't stand a chance in 2012.

YES! I cant wait for my taxes to go up. Stock market is going to be interesting tommarrow.

[QUOTE="princeofshapeir"] The passage of this bill will make him very popular for a while, and with no major Republican contender at the moment worth mentioning, I think you're in for a bit of a disappointment come 2012.dkrustyklown

If Newt could get the Republican nomination, he could mount an impressive campaign against Obama. The problem comes with getting the nomination. He cheated on his wife and the religious parts of the party hate him. If he could get the nomination, then I am sure that he could draw a lot of Democratic voters. The problem is in getting the nomination.

USA! USA! USA!

Finally we get something done for the PEOPLE and not for USA's 'Nobility'.

[QUOTE="Atheists_Pwn"][QUOTE="princeofshapeir"]Rush Limbaugh said he'd move to Costa Rica if this bill gets passed. He's probably not going to, but oh well. This is still a momentous day for Obama and for the country. :Dimaps3fanboy

This is evident in most economic recessions that recessions are over and in turn, unemployment will steadily go down. This was evident in most recessions, including one recession in the Reagan administration. But we'll see what happens next. Reagan decreased corporate regulations, thus allowing a more prosporous America. Obama isn't so keen on doing the same though.

I'm still somewhat worried about this but it's like a rollercoaster that you want to get off after it starts up. No option but to ride it through.

Most poll say otherwise. The results of this bill will raise premiums across the board for those who don't have pre-existing conditions. I would be quite surprised if this bill did much other than bragging rights during speeches.

A country that is a slave to the needs and whims of the richest in it is a terrible country.

I think 100+ Moderates and Liberals outnumber the 56 Conservatives.

Snipes_2

Well in that case, the 100+ Moderates and Conservatives outnumber the Liberals.

The 100+ Liberals and Conservatives also outnumber the Moderates.

What's your point?

My father said that this bill will benefit me in a way. I'm able to use my father's health plan up until I reach 26, an additional 4 years.

Oh god. Gingrich is an absolute blow-hard that proved his superior idiocy during the Clinton years. I'm sure that a large majority of Americans today already hate him.princeofshapeir

The man who crafted the "Contract with America" and led the Republican party to Congressional victory in 1994, leading to the first Republican Congress in decades, proved his "superior idiocy"? Oh, come one, those are some tinted glasses you have there. The man is a moderate Republican that appeals to a lot of Southern, Midwestern, and Western Democrats. He has a lot of wit and is a challenging debator.

If he just wouldn't screw around on his wife...

Count the number of people in the last few pages who support the bill and count the number of people against it. I think you'll be surprised.

Look:

- It was posted on DECEMBER 21ST, 2009. That was only three months ago. Besides, conservatives on GS have been whining about how they're sooooo outnumbered by liberals since these forums started.

- Moderate =/= liberal

- The numbers of conservatives and liberals are almost the same and you'd likely find with an even larger sample size that moderates, liberals, and conservatives all make up 33% of the political demographic on GS. Thus, everyone is outnumbered by everyone else. The 100+ conservatives and moderates outnumber the 59 liberals, the 100+ conservatives and liberals outnumber the 49 moderates, etc.

This bill does not cover dental care :/
