Republican Chairman Pete Sessions Speaks About The 5,000,000 Jobs Lost From This Bill
Obama for health care votes
AP
Barack Obama is traveling to Capitol Hill on Saturday to try to close the sale on his signature health care overhaul, facing a make-or-break vote in the House certain to be seen as a test of his presidency.
Obama scheduled a late-morning visit with House Democrats convening a rare Saturday session on legislation to remake the U.S. health care system, extending coverage to tens of millions now uninsured and banning insurance company practices such as denial of coverage based on pre-existing medical problems.
Late Friday, House Democrats cleared an abortion-related impasse blocking a vote and officials expressed optimism they had finally lined up the support needed to pass Obama’s signature issue.
Under the arrangement, Democratic Reps. Bart Stupak of Michigan, Brad Ellsworth of Indiana and other abortion opponents were promised an opportunity to insert tougher restrictions into the legislation during debate on the House floor.
The leadership’s hope is that no matter how that vote turns out, Democrats on both sides of the abortion divide will then unite to give the health care bill a majority over unanimous Republican opposition.
“We wish to maintain current law, which says no public funding for abortion,” Stupak said. “We are not writing a new federal abortion policy.”

As Democrats try to expand access to quality health care coverage, House Republicans routinely object.

Wild Thing’s comment…….
I have been watching between C-Pan and FOX news. The Republicans have been giving some great speechs why NOT to do this.
Obama pushes for this crap but can’t find time to visit the wounder at Ft Hood. Obama is not at Fort Hood today thanking our wounded – the wounded are not Muslims. He is in congress trying to get his civilian takeover law passed. And the Democrats are helping Muslim Obama destroy what is left of our civil rights.
Whopper Lie Obama today ..so far……Paraphrasing, he said that by passing the HealthCare reform bill would actually reduce the national deficit. One of the lessons we learned from Obama’s speech is that it’s perfectly acceptable to lie, but it’s a great big no-no to call the liar a liar such as when Joe Wilson said YOU LIE.
I know I have posted this before but…. Please Let your REPRESENTATIVE know you opposition to this bill: HR 3962

The Islamic terrorist attack on Fort Hood, TX, November 5, 2009, where 13 people was killed, and at least 30 wounded, is the usurper in the White House, Mr. Barack Hussein Obama´s 9/11/01. (Political correctness, appeasement, and apologizing for America towards Islam, is a path that leads to death of America.)
Impeach Mr. Obama!
Hey Blue Dogs… are you seriously willing to end your political career for Nancy Pelosi?
WHY?
What’s in it for you… and your constituents? Hard to imagine why anyone would allow themselves to be hectored into taking-one-for-the-team and incurring the wrath of the nation… when this arrogant socialist twit wouldn’t spit on you if your hair was on fire.
NOW is the time to KILL this pig- there’s no future in backing Obama’s radical plans anymore.
Vote for this highly unpopular bill at your peril… as SanFranNan will leave you twisting-in-the-wind next fall, of that you can be sure.

Obama is in the House and not Ft. Hood, why is that not surprising. I seriously doubt if he ever heard of Fort Hood before. Barack Himself Obama simply cannot help himself and that’s a fact Wild Thing!
Last post of http://twitter.com/BarackObama:
“Finished meeting on the Hill. 4 hours before the big vote, reps are fired up and ready to go. Add your voice: http: //bit.ly/3AEkDz”
Not A Single Word Of The Massacre At Fort Hood, TX At All On Obama´s Twitter!
Sickening!!!
PS: Political correctness brought Mr. Obama to power, it will be his downfall as well.
Priorities. Such as they are. Unfortunately.
Thanks everyone, yes he has his priorities
and they sure aren’t about support for
the wounded at Ft. Hood.
Speaks volumes about the man you call ‘Commander in Chief’ doesn’t it…..:(
I found Laura and George Bush’s visit to the victims of this tragedy at Fort Hood very moving. They took the time (as private itizens)to give people comfort and hope in their hour of need. Something that your current POTUS should have done! Unbelievable…..!!!!!!!!
~The Salute That Spoke Volumes~
This is regarding an old post of yours from July 27, 2006. I was proud to see a photo of mine on your website. The photo is of my Father Darron S., Vietnam Veteran being saluted by a young soldier. In light of Veterans Day, I would love for you to post it again along with the caption –
“The photo was taken at the Armed Forces Day Parade in Torrance, California on May 20, 2006. My Father Darron S., Vietnam Veteran, was sitting on the curb enjoying the parade. As the young solider came upon us I noticed him looking at my Father’s Vietnam Veteran hat. He silently stopped in front of my Father and stood there deadlocked on his eyes and stiffened into a salute. My Father immediately jumped up and forwarded this young soldier the same. They both held the salute for what seemed like a solid minute. There were no words spoken when my Father broke the salute.”
The photo originally ran on ABC7 Eyewitness News website in Los Angeles in 2006.
Please contact me if you would like a copy of the jpeg.
Thank you and God Bless,
