Oh, Fuck: Obamacare Passes House Vote

November 7th, 2009 Posted By Erik Wong.

BBC:

The US House of Representatives has backed a healthcare bill in a step towards reforms promised by President Obama, despite strong opposition.

Passed in a narrow 220-215 vote, the bill aims to extend coverage to 36 million more Americans and provide affordable healthcare to 96%.

The bill now has to be reconciled with a separate Senate draft law.

President Obama has made reform of America’s healthcare system a central plank of his domestic agenda.

He described Saturday’s vote in the House as “historic”, saying he was “absolutely confident” the Senate would also back it.

Correspondents say the legislation could lead to the biggest changes in American healthcare in decades.

Concessions

The bill was supported by 219 Democrats and one Republican - Joseph Cao from New Orleans. Opposed were 176 Republicans and 39 Democrats.

Before Saturday’s vote, Mr Obama made a rare visit to Congress to try to persuade wavering members of his own Democratic Party to back the bill.

He said such opportunities came around “maybe once in a generation”.

The bill would allow the government to sell insurance in competition with private companies and make insurers offer cover to those with pre-existing conditions.

But this so-called “public option” had been scaled back in the wrangling that preceded the House vote.

In the run-up to the vote, conservatives from both the Republican and Democratic parties joined forces to pass new restrictions on abortion coverage in insurance policies to be offered to individuals and groups.

The amendment had been offered to conservative Democrats as a means of persuading them to vote for the main bill.

A Senate debate on the bill the healthcare reform is expected in the coming days.

    If we reelect these libtards and RINOs, America as we know it is gone forever. This is only the beginning…

      I hate to say it but they seem to be destined to win in the long run. As with any war (physical or ideological) it will be won by those with the correct strategy. You see, while conservatives are focused on what politicians get elected, liberals are focused on ‘educating’ the next generation in your own public schools. It is no wonder that many so called ‘conservatives’ today cannot be differentiated from liberals..

      “Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.” Proverbs 22:6

      If you want to win in the long run, train up your children with the conservative Christian values that got this nation up and running in the first place instead of letting ‘the enemy’ do it for you.

      God Bless. Semper Fi.

      You are assuming that there will be a truthful and free 2010 election. The powers that put obama and his minions into power are still up and running; (acorn,labor unions,lawyers and liberal media)
      I really believe that these marxists will keep and expand the powers they have stolen.
      There is only one option for America…. REBELLION
      Return this once great country back to the Consitution. All we need is a leader of honor and bravery to call the patriots to service.
      Oh by the way…. they are coming for our guns next…You can count on it. :gun: :gun: :gun:

  2. I would’nt get to exited about this. The messia promised if the bill added one cent to the deficit he would not sign it. Last # I heard the house pricetag was $1.3 trillion. When the senate gets done porking it up it will be 1.9T.So he will kill it.Ya right you ARAB BASTARD

    fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck. I was starting to have a sliver of hope that maybe the majority of this country would be heard and represented. We are screwed and I again feel hopeless.

  5. reagan54

    Harry Mitchell from Arizona voted for it because no bill is perfect and something has to be done. How thoughtful.

  6. Sully

    Barry Chavez is right about he vote ‘defining differences between Dems and Repubs’. He said it like it’s a bad thing and it is for Him.
    We need much more of that.
    Bold colors!!

    On to the Senate and then SCOTUS!

    Time to weave rope from the paper its printed on. Next election cycle we’ll hang em with it. :gun: :gun: :gun:

    I’m so fucking mad words can’t describe it!

  9. Infidoll

    What can us citizens do to repeal this? Are we just supposed to sit back and face that we got screwed? AGAIN?! I’m not willing to do that. Not when I am very confident that the majority of Americans don’t want this and our representatives aren’t LISTENING. This is an un-Constitutional bill!

    I am TIRED of this! Is this the way our country is going to go from now on? Democrats seizing power, changing things that will be impossible to un-change, making our society THEIR Utopian society while we get screwed? Then, a Republican will have to take office, try to repair the damage they have done to our country in vain. These are changes you can’t just backpedal on.

    We might as well face it. We’re heading for our next Revolutionary war.

    • aboutTObegin

      march on Washington D.C. NOW! our inaction will only empower the Left in the Senate to pass this ANTI AMERICAN Legislation!!!! The Republicans are powerless against the majority vote as we can see, but if the people show them that we are the majority, I am sure they will get second thoughts. Remember pelosi crapping in her pants when all the Tea Partiers showed up on Sept 12th.

      :arrow: I would call it a civil war, and, unfortunately, it is coming. The last thing I ever wanted to see was Americans shooting each other again; we had enough of that between 1861-65. When a government no longer represents its people but seeks to rule over them, it is the right of The People to overthrow said governemnt and establish a Just Government to apply the Rule of Law to the land. These so-called “Representatives” crossed the Rubicon tonight and established Tyranny over America. Remember, They are the ones who will have forced the bloodshed, and the judgement of God and Righteousness is on their heads. Long Live the Constitution, it’s time for a hanging party. :cry:

      are these pieces of human shit coming home for thanksgiving? i say we find where they live and make there home away from home thanksgiving vacation a fucking nightmare. i’m sure a couple hundred people in thier front lawns isn’t something they forget about easily. awww fuck cindy shitinhand did it to Pres. Bush for a couple months. maybe the senate will learn we have had enough.

    No one is talking about the $1800 per year fine for not buying crappy socialist health insurance. You will be charged with a Felony if you don’t pay the fine. For the first time in American history you will get fined and jailed for NOT doing something.

    My family is Christian Scientists, which means they NEVER go to the hospital for ANY reason. You could rip their arm off any they will bandage it and pray that it gets better. It’s like imprisoning and man with no teeth for not buying dental insurance. THIS IS THE DEFINITION OF TYRANNY!

    Lets go all the way with this. The gov’t should install cameras in all our homes to make sure we exercise everyday and eat healthy and have a picture of the Obamassiah hung prominantly in our homes.

    Our Founding Fathers took up arms over a tea tax. My question is at what point do we stop blogging and protesting with signs with clever sayings on them and calling talk radio shows and yelling at our dash boards and take up armed and open revolt?

    Just a question….

    • reagan54

      I’m a Christian Scientist, too. Our rights have always been protected until now. I agree that its now time for the human footsteps.

      Unless the 5th Army is willing to kill a lot of its citizenry I don’t think this will hold. This isn’t a college campus with a bunch of pot-smokin hippies stickin flowers in their rifle barrels. Your talking the silent well armed majority of the entire U.S.

    • Minuteman01

      One big problem I see with this: After the terrorist attack on Ft. Hood, I don’t see a whole heck of a lot of soldiers doing anything for this FUCKING CIC.

      IN fact, If I were Obama, I’d be hiding out overseas for a while, because I know for damned sure, if it were Patton in charge of Ft Hood today, his tanks would be in DC by now.

      I’d take anything on WND with a lot more than a grain of salt.

  12. killczar

    torches and pitchforks for me. with a little lead on the side. sign carriers and slogan chanters need not apply. duped again by our own govt. nothing will change not even in 2010. man up you cunts.

  13. I hate to say it but they seem to be destined to win in the long run. Like any war, either physical or ideological, the victor will always be the side with the right strategy.

    You see, while conservatives are more concerned and focused on what politicians get elected and the like, liberals are more concerned and focused on “educating” the next generation (including future politicians) in your own public schools. No one should wonder that many so called ‘conservatives’ cannot be differentiated from liberals..

    “Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.” -Proverbs 22:6 KJV 1611

    It only takes ONE generation to screw it all up.

    If you guys want to win in the long run, maybe you should take the following into account:

    1. “If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.” II Chron. 7:14 KJV 1611

    2. Educate and train your children yourselves instead of sending them to the war zone and letting the enemy ‘educate’ them for you, and against you.

    God Bless. Semper Fi.

  14. I think the bright yellow diamond shaped warning sign is completlely accurate and corectly to the point.

    I said, on this site, in September that they (the liberal democrats) would come back into the fall session and ram this thing right down our throats regardless of Tea Parties, Town Hall Meetings, or the countless cries of opposition across the internet. They do not care about anything but their own
    angenda(s).

    There is only one answer: Revolution! An armed confrontation with this facists leaning/operating government. That is the only way to stop this mess from expanding even further.

    Today at across the US Angry Mobs pulled Democratic reps and their staff Tared and Fatherd them :gun: :gun: :gun: :gun:

  16. I feel sick. :oops:

    My only question now is, if somehow this passes the Senate and is signed into law, it will not take effect until 2013.

    Is there any recourse whatsoever to repealing this legislation before it takes effect?

    If not…the Second American Revolution will begin.

    :gun: :gun: :gun: :gun: :gun: :gun:

  17. SgtJenz

    So much for peaceful protests. Next.

    The bastards in DC aren’t listening to us. That should be clear by this time. Marxists are removing America one piece of un-Constitutional legislation at a time while we protest. Fuck a bunch of protests. Let the shooting revolution begin….now.

    • Amen…let the shooting begin!

    • Start the coordination today! Begin to meet locally and select leaders with military and combat experience. Begin the process of linking up with other likeminded and like-driven individuals.

      Town by town, city by city, state by state until we have our army ready to march. Leaders corodiante with leaders, prepare the plans, coordinate the moves, set the communication standards, hoist the colors and let’s march!

      Enough talk, enough!

      America needs action, America needs rescue, America needs us, America needs you!

      I don’t want this…I know you don’t want this…but much further down this socialist road and there is no America left…the time for action is now…and inaction spells our doom…our demise…our destruction.

      Begin the rally cry today!

      Someone recently said that we were “One shot away from civil war” and that we “are waiting for the shot to be fired.” Well, it was fired last night!
      The governmental take-over of 1/6th of the US economy means that we will be enslaved to this government, enslaved by forced taxation at the barrel of a gun to pay for every social program they can muster and add to this bill over time. A shot from which we can never recover…a shot that will kill our America as we know Her. (I know it has not passed the Senate…yet…but they are prepared to ram it through too…just like the House…ole Harry is as wicked as ole Nancy…it’s coming the same way)

      The time has come my brothers and sisters, the time to act or the time to fail…the decision is ours alone.

      I have no fear of them…I will stand beginning right now…who will stand with me? Who will fight together with me?

  18. SOC

    I am appalled that the majority of citizens in our country did not want this bill, yet the elected representatives who supposedly represent the American people passed it anyway in the House.

    We are no longer represented by officials who care what we as Americans want. They are too busy passing laws that Obama wants. Who the fuck is he to tell us. I for one have never liked having anything crammed down my throat and then be expected to roll over and agree to it.

    The revolution started last night in Washington. Now everyone must choose freedom or tyranny. Any money you have saved is gone as they will next figure how to control that.
    We must fight. Some of us are going to die, some will go to prison. If we want to remain free Americans, we must fight!

    Going out to buy more ammo today. My 13 year old is already very proficient with all of our weapons, time to take the 8 year old out to the range too. I WILL NOT submit to this tyranny. You reading this NHS? You have pissed off the silent majority. Could luck keeping tabs on all. :gun: :gun:

    The Dems just committed political suicide.
    They are done after 2010 and 12.
    Hopefully once back in control we can get this all changed before it all kicks in.
    In the meantime, we have to punish the Senate. Find the blue dogs in the Senate and scare the pants off them.

  23. PatriotofPast

    The United States of America… Founded on July 4th 1776 by men. Real men who said this will be a Nation Of the PEOPLE, By the PEOPLE and For the PEOPLE.
    I am sorry Founding Fathers… YOUR Courage and Love of FREEDOM has been thrown away with the Constitution you so Brilliantly Drafted.
    233 years after you Brave Souls inked the Constitution with your Blood, The Government that you Created has become a Dictatorship.As a Citizen and Believer in Your SELFLESS ACTS…
    I today say I am SORRY, and ask your Forgivness and PRAY for YOUR STRENGTH.

  24. This is the beginning of the end for the Democrats Party. 2010 will see a protest…no a REBELLION against that corrupt socialist party and it will disappear like other political parties that FAILED TO LISTEN TO THE MAJORITY OF VOTER/CITIZENS!

  26. Badger

    Yup, I agree. Seems the nice memos being sent to Congress aren’t being read. This is going to be a wake up call to the other 30-40% of the electorate. This will ensure the next time our memo’s are sent they will be red, literally but this was their choice not ours. If this bill happens to shuffle through Congress with the Nation in tact which is yet to be seen, my vote will go to those who promise to unwind Obama’s BS even if that takes me to a 65% tax bracket to effectuate, no problem. While you Patriots go after Congress, my concentration now is on the SEIU. We have to break the legs of Obama’s support structure and that means that bucket of meat without lipstick, Andrew Stern. The easiest organizations to infiltrate which is underway are those that wear a certain shirt or uniform like purple…….nuff said.

    The average American has not even a clue that this is a more serious and devistating attack on our country then 10 9/11’s. THis is nothing short of economic suicide and a guarantee for economic collapse.

  30. ME

    I wouldn’t get to hyped up about this. The house represented the easiest passing of this bill. and it did so by a very slim margin. When this gets to the senate they are gonna pick it apart add/delete stuff. when this goes back to the house for approval on senate changes - they will not have enough votes.

    I think this one is dead in the water. There is just not enough support for this. The democrats are too split amongst this for it to pass.

    • Hawkerdriver (Pisson the Koran)

      You have got to be kidding.With amount of RINOs in the Senate and other hucksters working in concert together the passing of this sneak attack on America in the Senate will look like an instant replay!The word “majority” is not even recognized any more in Congress.It has been replaced with “whatever”. For heavens sake! You are way out of your tree for even hoping it could be different! Put down the kool-aid and pick up a weapon. :roll:

  31. Sully

    Nullification and demanding States rights be respected only works in ‘our’ favor if the State House is Conservative.
    Far too many Americans don’t pay attention to politics at all, let alone a State Assembly race, so Marxist-Progs have had free rein for the most part.
    That’s changing this year and needs to continue to change.
    Get involved in some way.

  32. Giorgi

    one russian politician,a vice speaker of russian Duma, Vladimir Zhirinovski (basically a bafoon with imperialistic ambitions) has said that this vote in House of Representatives in a sign of a demise of America as a superpower…he says a lot of outlandish shit like “russian soldiers will wash their boots in Indian Ocean”, but if you read between the lines throgh his incoherent blaber, u can see that what he says is actually what is really in minds and planned by the russian KGB run governmnet. they want BHO. and they see witch way he’s leading the nation. stop this madness.

    • Vlad

      how true. This whole train-wreck has been decades in the making and in no small part financed and guided by the KGB. Go to Youtube and search for “Bezmenov”. Yuri Bezmenov was a senior KGB operative who defected to the west. In his videos he explains KGBs “subversive” operations meant to confuse/dumb down/demoralize west and indoctrinate the new generations. These efforts were “wildly successful beyond the most daring dreams”. We’re now living the consequences of not finishing the job. You see, the West defeated Nazi ideology. There was Nuremberg trial where it was exposed for the evil it was.
      Reagan managed to collapse the USSR but he and the west did not defeat the communist/leftist ideology. We merely outspent it. It’s still alive and well and has now joined forces with the certain Religion of Pieces. The open war on the West has been raging for years, decades even and most of the West is blissfully unaware while the enemy makes huge strides - all the while paid and comforted and encouraged by the West itself (oil, political correctness, multi-culti, global warming and other forms of covert jizya).
      Good luck to us all and god bless

    • Giorgi

      Vlad, i know all about Bezhmenov, thanks though, it all began with the Khrushevs release to the west of a whole lot of political dissidents and jews (soviets didnt like the jews at all) to the US and mixed up some sleeper cells/agents within it. when i lived in brooklyn it was funny to hear some of the emigrants complaining “why does Georgia is seeking to be closer to the US, why not go with Russia” and my answer to these “well wishers” was to fuck off with the offer to return to the motherland, what do they want in America. so yea, it all started way back, the vientam anti-war movement activists, the black panthers, etc, all had KGB/GRU fingerprints on them.

    • Vlad

      Giorgi,

      My comment “Search YouTube for Bezmenov” was directed mostly at the rest of Pats readers. I am pretty sure you’re quite familiar with the background and the history of the current events. Today’s idiocy did not spring up overnight; it’s been meticulously planned for decades and we’re seeing the results now. The westerners need to understand its roots and the aims of its perpetrators if we have any hope of defending the Wests values and freedom.

    DOES ANYBODY THINK THAT DEMS WILL TRY TO STOP OR COMPLETELY RIG THE ELECTIONS IN 2010?

    Especially since the DEMS are intending to increase ACORN and a new SEIU-ACORN-Obamabot OFA voter registration law coming in January…

    It is very ironic that the average Iranian citizens HAVE MORE BALLS THAN WE DO!!!!!

    Looks like we will never ACTIVATE as conservatives and the lberals know it.
