We discuss how Barack Obama will sell the historic bill after he has signed it into law.
In the aftermath of the US congress approving the healthcare reform law, legislators who supported the bill are facing threats of violence and vandalism. And some opponents are turning from harsh words to physical attacks to get their point across, raising worries about the state of political debate in the US. Al Jazeera's Rosiland Jordan reports (26 Mar, 2010).
Since the passage of the US health care reform bill, public support for the plan has increased in just a matter of days. But polls show conservative voters have developed extremely negative views towards Barack Obama, the US president, with 67 per cent of those polled calling him a socialist. Arianna Huffington is the co-founder of the Huffington Post, one of the most widely read news web sites in the US. She spoke to Al Jazeera about whether some of the claims about Obama actually help supporters of the president manage expectations of what his Democratic Party can achieve.

PLEASE HELP US SHARE/DIGG THIS VIDEO. DIGG HERE: digg.com On March 16, 2010, Tea Partiers from around the country gathered (in disappointing numbers) in front of the Capitol building for their final protest against health care reform. Also in town, appropriately, was Barnum & Bailey's actual circus. The protestors voiced their usual conspiratorial concerns about healthcare reform: that it was a government takeover and more government, of course, equals less freedom; that it would euthanize seniors too expensive to treat; and that the bill would sink the nation into irrecoverable debt, despite its actually reducing the deficit by more than $100-billion over the next ten years. Averse to facts, no one interviewed was able to cite evidence for their false beliefs about the reform proposal, and instead suggested we seek the "truth" from Glenn Beck and Fox News. THE PROPOSAL The healthcare reform proposal being advanced in congress, while imperfect, would bring long overdue changes to a broken system. Far from being rushed, the proposals that make up this reform have been debated for years, and this congress has been working on a bill for many months. It's time for an up or down vote on reform. The proposal will expand healthcare access to over 30-million uninsured Americans, make healthcare more affordable for everyone, hold insurance companies more accountable, end discrimination against Americans with pre-existing conditions, and help stabilize our budget and economy by ...

US Senator George lemieux (R-FL) speaks about the potential for the House majority to send a health care bill to President Obama to sign into law, without having House members cast a vote on it. Senator lemieux stated such tactics were not intended for major pieces of legislation, especially those that will impact virtually every American and one-sixth of the US economy.

(03/07/10) -- US Congressman Jason Altmire (PA-04) and US Congressman John Adler (NJ-03) talk to Fox News Sunday's Chris Wallace about what they want to see in health care reform.
Complete video at: fora.tv "Old people don't need to take a pill, they need to take a walk," argues Stanford University physician Dr. Walter Bortz. He bashes the "corrupt," profit-driven US healthcare system for distorting the goals of medical care. "Nobody's out there trying to prevent cancer, they're all so busy treating it because you get paid for it," he says. ----- Rife with inefficiency, injustice, corruption and rising costs, current medicine is exhibiting all the symptoms of a languishing patient, says Dr. Bortz. It may be time to put our medical system through major therapy. Simultaneously, a rigorous new science is teaching us that prevention truly is the best way to stay healthy. - Commonwealth Club of California Walter Michael Bortz is an American physician who promotes the possibility of a 100-year lifespan while working at the Stanford University School of Medicine. He is one of America's leading scientific experts on aging and has written several bestselling books.

And were pleased to welcome Congressman Grayson back to the show, to give us an update on some of the hottest issues being debated in Congress right now.

US Senator Jim demint (R-South Carolina) questions the Parliamentarian of the US Senate through the chair about changes to the Senate Rules hidden within the 2700 page Reid-Obama health care takeover bill.
US Senator Richard Burr on the floor of the Senate discussing health care reform on Sunday, December 20, 2009.
US Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid is given the "Congressional 30 Pieces of Silver Disgrace" for attempting to bribe pro-life Democrat senators to abandon their principles and support his tax-payer funded abortion scheme. Rev. Rob Schenck explains the reasoning behind the first-ever presentation of its kind that includes a plaque-mounted rare Roman Empire coin like one of the 30 given to Judas Iscariot to betray Jesus Christ.
www.house.gov campaignforliberty.com As Washington continues debating healthcare reform the rest of the country is primarily concerned about jobs and the economy. It is still uncertain what policies will be implemented, but I am certain about one thing It will only further devastate our economy and our dollar. The leadership has come up with a proposal they are confident will be what they consider fiscally responsible, only to have it scored as nearly twice as expensive by the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office. Estimates of past healthcare spending programs have been off by as much as 100 percent so there is no telling what the actual cost will be. The past century should have taught us one thing: that government intervention is expensive. Government programs lend themselves so easily to waste, fraud and abuse. Combine that with overall inefficiency and it all adds up to a hefty price tag for the taxpayer, with not much leftover for actual services. An outright takeover of an entire sector of the economy, especially one as important as healthcare, is something that we just cannot afford for the government to do right now. Not to mention the fact that it is completely unconstitutional. But Washington insists on torturing the numbers and tinkering around the edges rather than facing this truth. If healthcare reform does indeed pass, we should not be under the illusion that it will be free. The money to pay for it will have to come from somewhere. They say they will ...
AHIP is the powerful insurance lobby that spends 5 million dollars a week trying to kill health care reform. Billionaires for Wealthcare is a grassroots network looking to stop them - with song. • AHIP and other insurance and HMO interests spend nearly $5 million per week undermining real health care reform, including a public option. • AHIP has resorted to out-right lying and scare tactics to block health care reform. They sent letters that lie to seniors about what health care reform means for Medicare, and they issued a report on the costs of health care reform legislation that is so misleading even the reports embarrassed authors distanced themselves from the way AHIP used their work. • Every year, 45000 people die because they cant get access to the health care they need. Yet AHIP continues to stand in the way of health care reform that would provide coverage to millions of Americans because the industry is more concerned with protecting profits than saving lives.

bit.ly by Bill Maher - Posted: September 18, 2009 04:52 PM New Rule: You can't complain about health care reform if you're not willing to reform your own health. Unlike most liberals, I'm glad all those teabaggers marched on Washington last week. Because judging from the photos, it's the first exercise they've gotten in years. Paul Hipp - "We're Number 37" bit.ly Not counting, of course, all the Rascal scooters there, most of which aren't even for the disabled. They're just Americans who turned 60 and said, "Screw it, I'm done walking." These people are furious at the high cost of health care, so they blame illegals, who don't even get health care. News flash, Glenn Beck fans: the reason health care is so expensive is because you're all so unhealthy. Yes, it was fun this week to watch the teabaggers complain how the media underestimated the size of their march, "How can you say there were only 60000 of us? We filled the entire mall!" Yes, because you're fat. One whale fills the tank at Sea World, that doesn't make it a crowd. President Obama has identified all the problems with the health care system, but there's one tiny issue he refuses to tackle, and that's our actual health. And since Americans can only be prodded into doing something with money, we need to tax crappy foods that make us sick like we do with cigarettes, and alcohol -- and alcohol actually serves a useful function in society in that it enables unattractive people to get laid, which is more than you can ...
On the Listening Post this week, the US media divide over Obamas proposed healthcare reforms, and double standards for foreign and local journalists in Afghanistan. We begin this week by taking a look at Barack Obamas healthcare reform debate that is still raging through The American airwaves. It is less of a media debate than it is an all-out dogfight. The opposing views seem irreconcilable, the middle ground is shrinking to non-existent, and the mainstream media are not helping. Buzzwords like death panels, government takeover and slippery slope to socialism are all over the corporate media but where are the voices that helped get Obama elected and how are the big money lobbyists from the private health care interests and insurance companies using the media to get their views across? And what of the American public, who are caught up and confused in the crossfire?

Health Care Reform with Michael Moore. Michael Moore's view on US Health Care Reform.
With tempers flaring on the US healthcare reform question, Al Jazeera speaks to two American doctors, on either side of the divide, and digs deeper into the debate. Although consensus exists on the need to overhaul the healthcare system, healthcare professionals are split on how the basic ideas of US President Barack Obama's plan will affect local residents. No official legislation has been introduced, but Obama's plan includes an emphasis on preventive care, shifting from paper files to electronic medical records, and a public option insurance plan. Major questions remain as to how the government would pay for insurance for people now uninsured, and what effects a government option would have on both workers and employers. Mark Kellen, a physician from Rockford Illinois, told Al Jazeera that the problem with Obama's healthcare plan is that "it's government centred and not patient centred". Kellen argues that "medical care doesn't need reform, the government needs reform". Jennifer Lee, a practising ER doctor in Washington DC, told Al Jazeera that Obama's proposal "is absolutely patient centred, it's all about trying to make sure patients can access care and that care is affordable". Lee says her patients are "literally dying because the healthcare system is so bad". Here are their views in their own words.
This we ask if Can the US afford Barack obama's proposed healthcare reform, analyse the hopes for Dubai's new metro system and look at the paradox of oil wealth.
Healthcare has become so expensive in the US that the inability to pay medical bills is a leading cause of bankruptcy. The administration is ratcheting up the pressure on Congress to enact meaningful reform to cover the 15% of the population without insurance. In a special four-day series, Al Jazeera will examine healthcare systems in the United States and other countries, to look at some of the best and worst care available. Al Jazreera's Rob Reynolds reports from Baltimore, Maryland, on how the crisis in America's health care system affects ordinary people in their everyday lives.

Questions about the rising costs of US medical care and the nation's supply of doctors. A comparison between the Danish & US health care systems. Denmark's health care is funded by 8% of federal income tax and has high patient satisfaction. 2009-08-03 broadcast.
Do we have a limited government, or one that is only limited by what it can get away with? I would say it is the latter. I would also say that at least 80% of our representatives do not even consider the Constitution when they vote on legislation; they are more concerned about getting elected than upholding the constitution. So whose fault is this? Is it their fault, or is it our fault? Once again I would say that it is the latter. It is "we the people" who vote them into power, so it is "we the people" who are at fault, and until we wise up, we will continue to get what we deserve. So from now on when you write your representative in congress about an issue or an impending bill, you should ask them under what constitutional authority are they proposing or supporting the bill; what power do they have to enact such legislation? Early this year or late last year a woman was attacked by a monkey and nearly killed. So our congress in their eagerness to protect us decided to enact legislation to prevent an attack like this from taking place in the future. On Fox News there was a conservative republican who had voted against this legislation, and the interviewer was asking him why. The congressman said that he was voting against it because it didn't go far enough. He said the law only affected purchases of monkeys across state lines. He said that he was for an outright ban on the ownership of monkeys. He said that if a bill like that was presented, then he would vote for it ...

And, under the clear terms of the bill, you will not be able to keep your current plan, whether you like it or not. Shadegg sees the House bill as a massive takeover of every aspect of healthcare. The legislation empowers bureaucrats to make virtually every decision, he says. It creates a new healthcare advisory commission, a new healthcare benefits board. It creates a new commissioner who would have powers just short of the powers of the president. It dictates what must be contained in every policy in America, down to what they must cover, what appeals process it must have, all the way down to how insurance firms must advertise in a manner acceptable to the federal ...
