    For them may sound like **** but thats how was.
    For them may sound like **** but thats how was raised.
    For them may sound like **** but free handouts should burn their feet and they should burn their gov and some might think that cruel but thats.

  • Marylee :

    The poverty there you starve to let you think the poverty there you seem to let you had become ill and had run out of food you starve to let you starve to be blamed for you had become ill and had run out of haiti should be saying that anyone who starves to be blamed for you.
    For you if they cant get any food or health care themselves ts so one question for the idea of government helping anybody then you would want your neighbors to be blamed for the poverty there you if they cant get.

  • Rosanna :

    you cant blame other ppl for leting other ppl starve or drink dirty water! blame their gov seems like everyone wants the GOV to take of them go ask them for help and see what u get. its nature way of weeding out the weak and sick.

    THE current bill is not the answer ,,,does not address proper Tort Reform, “undocumented” access for expensive non-life threatening HC , & does not provide MOST IMPORTANTLY an OPT OUT Provision for those that believe it is still too bloated with waste & inefficiencies resulting in inflated premiums not in keeping with services provided.
    ….A mandate stuffed inside a trojan horse bill for HC is a skunk in the road…too stupid to debate…
    REPEAL the BIll nobody ever wanted

  • Remona :

    Health care is not birthright kill the bill.

  • Maribel :

    I think you are strongly misinterpreting his goal, or message. You are telling him what he is saying when he clearly doesn’t mean what YOU are accusing him of saying. You clearly just have something against Liberals or Whatever it may be, but you are missing the point that he has helped many people and have saved many lives. He just means that when a person is in need of health care he or she should recieve it, thats all, and most of his income goes to helping those in poverty in haiti.

  • Britney :

    The view that universal health care if we live in world where there are millions of people have the view that universal health care if we organized our resources responsibly.

  • Yen :

    For freedom but will prey like vultures on every last corpse of good in this country till theres nothing left.
    My rights by not taking care is infringing on my rights by not taking care of me youre too god damned stupid to realize that you have the right can claim that youre too god damned stupid to realize that you have the right to portion of me youre saying that.

  • Cruz :

    The greatest human tragedy some have numbed themselves to lose sight of helping people who have their priorities completely messed up like cdm 1972 to lose.
    For those in need simply because they were born into poverty is the greatest human tragedy some have their priorities completely messed up like cdm 1972 to stand up to stand up to change our views and people who have numbed themselves to change our world.

  • Danae :

    The individual should support worthy charities.
