Obviously a totally biased account. I consider Fox news to be quite objective and gives both sides in its news shows. Glen Beck is incredibly intelligent and very informative. He does opinion, not news. Obama has a lot that deserves criticism. Basically he is deceptive,hiding his true objectives that are much more radical and left than suits this country.

THis story is comical. Let's paint the insurance companies as politically incorrect. This has nothing to do with serious thinking about health care.

Every discussion of the "public option" in the mainstream media is permeated with dishonesty. The public option is simply a stalking horse for socialized medicine - what Obama and his friends really want but know won't fly politically.

The real problem is that not rejecting people for preexisting conditions is an economic impossibility unless there is only one insurance company (i.e. national health). The reasons are obvious and that this is never mentioned by the media is a symptom of a lack of critical analysis.

The left, thwarted from losing the war in Iraq, is now trying to lose the war in Afghanistan. The problem they have is how to do it without the ... More »

Fails to place the tax in perspective. Gasoline costs $6.80 (US) per gallon now in france. This tax adds another 31 cents. The effect on gasoline consumption will be extremely small.

France has shown the way with nuclear electricity. But due to the general crushing tax load including on gasoline everyone there is already driving ... More »

"Comprehensive reform" is a code word for socialized medicine. We all know that. "Comprehensive reform" of immigration was code for opening the gates. We all know that. Why not tell the truth?

The media is so easily fooled by "scientists" with an axe to grind. Debunked almost instantly at www.climatedepot.org or at www.climateaudit.org

Unfortunately most things in the media concerning global warming are wrong.

This is an unsophisticated propaganda piece. The bills that have been proposed show that the administration is intent on going to single payer and all the rest is propaganda to obscure the real destination.

Actually, it matters not at all what is in the bill since it is so broad that the bureaucrats can do what they please and what pleases them is ... More »

Obama is a Chicago politician. He doesn't operate from any principle except to beat his foes and help his supporters. Rich should know better than to think otherwise.

Obama is Clinton but more ruthless and more tricky.

An advocate for socialized medicine tells the truth rather than hiding it.

Obama has made the mistake of his life. There is no way he can lie his way out of this one.

Vague - needs to be more concrete

There is no shortage of ideas. Obama is the biggest force working for the Republicans. He is digging a big hole for the Democrats.

As an entrepreneur I had no problem with "job lock." Totally unsupported assumptions. What about the effect of higher taxes having the opposite effect?

A very one sided description of the NHS. Anyone who can afford it in the UK has private insurance and avoids NHS.

Misses the point that government health care rations care and encourages old people to die quickly. Also misses that Democrats friends the trial lawyers impose a huge cost on health care via lawsuits and enforced defensive medicine.

Idiot left wing ranting. In almost every case those bases are welcomed and w/o them the world would be very unstable. $102 billion is small change compared to other government expenses.

Obviously Wal Mart would rather have the government subsidize health care for lower paid employees which are many of Wal Mart's employees.

Reform is needed. However Obama wants a national health service which would be horrible.

Highly superficial. As if Obama's scheme is reform. Obama's scheme is to ration health care and cover up denial of care to old people.

Ignores the elephants in the room - reverse racism and patronization of blacks as being unable to make it on their own. Blacks will always be an underclass as long as they accept racial preferences.

It's time for blacks to stand up and say I don't want to displace more deserving people because I'm black. Fifty years of this is enough.

Ignores the real issues. Medicare is 36 trillion in the hole in spite of receiving a massive subsidy from private insurance that pays hospitals far more for the same treatments.

Obama wants to destroy the current system so that his government system has no competition. Who knows that you are forced into Medicare if you want ... More »

Obama's logic is not hard to follow. He wants a national health service with total control from washington. The public option is a stalking horse.

Obama is incredibly dishonest. He lies like crazy and his supporters love it. The goal is to make everyone dependent on the government.

The tired old Robert Reich is still selling the old time snake oil. Of course the premise is incorrect.

The rich getting richer is one of those stories that is too good to check. Unfortunately the underlying statistics are wrong.
