Obama Will “Rescue” Health Care?
By Wyatt Earp | July 23, 2009
Oh, thank God Obama! Now I feel secure in my health care and the health care afforded my family!
While I was out with the kids last night, I decided to participate in a little self-abuse by listening to Obama’s 1,000th press conference – it has been that many now, right? – on the radio. Hugh Hewitt streamed it live with limited interruption, and from what I heard I can say this with a modicum of surety:
President Obama is a liar, and he is going to throw this country further into crippling debt.
But hey, what do I know? I try to leave politics to the professionals. Thankfully, they dissected this disgrace disguised as a press conference, and were happy to do so – considering Ed Morrissey from Hot Air covered it live:
Alternate headline if Hot Air wasn’t a family site: “Let me be clear: The time has come to drive American health care into a f***ing ditch.”
Only the press corps knows what’s in store for the Q&A but The One’s opening remarks will not disappoint. Evidently he’s going to go after Jim DeMint again for daring to suggest that this is all about him even though it is, in fact, and reportedly by his own admission, all about him. Plus this tasty morsel, which we’ll be feeding back to Barry for many, many years to come:
I have also pledged that health insurance reform will not add to our deficit over the next decade – and I mean it.
For your drinking-game amusement, I recommend a sip every time he says something that you know he’ll be insisting he never said a year from now. E.g., “But let me be clear: We have always acknowledged the possibility of grandma waiting six years for a hip transplant.”
For me, the most telling comments of the night were these:
1. When Obama was asked if he and the members of Congress would follow the same health plan that we peons would be forced to use, he said no. Obama explained that he was the president and he had the best health care in the world.
Um, then why won’t you let the rest of us have access to it, as well, instead of force-feeding us socialized medicine?
2. When asked about the arrest of race-baiting tool Henry Gates in Cambridge, Massachusetts, Obama replied, “[T]he Cambridge police acted stupidly in arresting somebody when there was already proof that they were in their own home.”
Really? You admitted you weren’t there and that you have not sen all of the facts, but you can proclaim from on high that the Cambridge Police acted stupidly? You sir, are an arrogant, ig’nant jackass!
Seriously, is it 2012 yet? I can’t stand the sight of this man anymore.

I just read the Cambridge PD report about the arrest of Gates. The guy behaved like a jerk, plain and simple. He deserved to get arrested. Pity the charges were dropped.

1. Obama was way, way out of line.
2. Henry Gates should apologize to the Cambridge Police.
3. Sgt. Crowley is smokin’ hot!

Obama was way, way out of line here, to publicly trash the police like that. He did it on TV where the whole nation was watching and here we have our President disrespectful of our LE. Shame on him for not backing the officers or at the least…giving the benefit of the doubt. Way to go, being a leader that doesn’t jump to conclusions. NOT.

I was wondering if you’d comment on this.
Obama’s latest line is “why’d they handcuff an old lame guy with a cane”? That shows how dense Obama is- as if police have a choice every time they arrest someone.
“Sir- would you prefer cuffs or no cuffs” ? President Idiot!

John D – The only reason the charges were dropped is because the libs made a stink. I read the report. Disgusting.
Mrs. Crankipants – Oh, I’m much hotter than he is!
RAPH – Bawahahahahahahahaha!
Clady – He respects us like he respects firefighters and our armed forces. Not a bit.
AJ – And the “racial profiling” angle shows how clueless Obama is. IT WAS A RADIO CALL, YOU IDIOT!!!
Bob – Liberals and Michelle “Aunt Esther” Obama?
