Let's Get Fired up and Ready to go

Hello world he's done it again. Our president Barack Obama has made another earth shattering Health care speech at a health care rally in Minnesota. Keep it up Mr. President we are behind you 100%. I feel honored and blessed to be alive in a historic time like this to see the best and worst that the United States of America has to offer. Take some time and watch the following videos

Health care rally





Obama address to govt





Pres. Obama speaks to autoworkers






Obama speaks to AFL-CIO







After seeing these videos of our president over the past few days it seems to be pretty obvious that this guy and his administration actually has the American people in mind. This man is trying to help save this great country by turning around one of the worst economies in U.S. history. This man is trying to help American people by making health insurance more affordable and accessible. This man is trying to help people who lost their jobs gain employment again. This man is doing all of these things on top of everything else that it takes to run this great country. There are a lot of people who believe in him and support him 100%. These are truly historic times in our country never before have there been a president like this who seems to be a regular person with a consciousness for the regular person that is the American Citizen.
Now on that same hand just on the other side these are also one of the most troubling times that I have ever had to live through in my short life. There has been so much opposition of this guy and his administration that its incredible. Never before that i have ever seen or anybody that i know has ever seen. Coincidentally this is the first time we have had an African American president. Lots of people are naive and ignorant and may be a shamed and don't want to admit that alot of this is because of his race. Maybe its not due to his race. Then what could it be??? His ideals ? Is he trying to hurt our country? Is he putting our countries safety or well-being in danger?? Sadly to those questions i cant seem to find a yes in any way. I have however found and have heard some racial issues. I tell you what take a look at these videos and determine for yourself.




This is a documentary that was done by alexandra pelosi. Just listen to the many many lies and propraganda that these people base their opposition on.



This video disturbs me deeply. It is amazing that people are this ignorant and uninformed and so gullable. This video is also disturbing in how it shows peoples hatred for someone that they obviously don't know. It is if people are trying to put a made up political agenda over their true feelings about a black president.



This is actual video of the 9/12 protest by Max Blumenthal





This video is especailly disturbing because this was just last week. These people are the perfect example of the gullable uneducated side of America. These people have mysteriously come out of the woodworks to protest not just Obama but the United States government itself. It's bad enough that they are relating our president to real Nazis and tyrrants that actually killed and oppressed millions of people. These people are actually against the United States Government. With some of the accusations that these people are making seems like to me some trails of treason should be coming about.
The 9/12 Teabagger protesters have earned my second Half Baked Dumbass award. Congratulations dumbasses .

great speech Mr. Obama

Hello World first off i really do appreciate every one's support and time taken to read this blog. Having said that i must say this don't be shy speak up spread the word and feel free to comment on any subject on here. Onward and Forward as many of you know our president Barack Obama gave a very pivotal speech on Health care Reform and his updated stance on it. For those of you who haven't seen it check it out down below. I recommend that every body sees this speech it is truly an epic piece of American history. I am especially glad that he said some of the things that he said to further disprove the right winged nut jobs that are fighting the Reform with the ridiculous Bullshit scare campaigns. He has also reassured and reaffirmed that he is not deviating from his original plan, although it has been modified some, it is still the reform that this country so desperately needs. Ladies and Gentlemen The President of The United States Barack Obama






Now that you have seen quite possibly the most important speech of a president in most of our lifetimes, I you have noticed at 21:48 in the speech you might have heard some dumbass yell out and disrupt the president. Well sadly that dumbass is an actual elected official from South Carolina. His name is Joe Wilson he is the congressional representative for South Carolina's 2nd congressional district. His demonstration on the night of 9/9/09 was so unprofessional and despicable that it is appalling that some one like that could possibly be elected into any office. I am quite sure that if any of us regular people had an outburst like that in a board meeting of our employers that our tenure with that company would come to and abrupt end.
Joe Wilson has managed to display a level of stupidity and ignorance rarely seen in public. His outburst of "you lie" was to the response of Pres. Obama stating that illegal immigrants would not be covered under the reform plan. Whats even sadder about the whole situation is that Joe Wilson is incorrect in his accusation, it clearly states in the bill that illegal immigrants will not be covered. Joe Wilson is definitely not an average Joe, he is however the first recipient of The HalfBaked Dumbass Award.

Joe Wilson








Joe Wilson (R-SC) hollered out and called the President a liar during The Presidential Address. Call his office and let him know what you think about that - (202) 225-2452 / (803) 939-0041.

Health Care Reform

Hello people it is 7/25/09 and as promised we are going to open up today with discussions on the Obama health care reform. There is a whole lot of this and that going back and forth over this whole issue and it's really starting to get pretty ugly out there. So today i want to know what is your take on the whole situation? Do you think this is a good idea or not? And do you think our country needs this or not? As for my point of view I think this is the greatest thing to ever happen to this country and yes we need it, we needed it about 6 years ago. For those who don't know what the reform is proposing, here it is in a nutshell. Basically Obama wants to create a free health care system for the united states of America. That's great in itself but it also does so much more.

This bill will help America in so many other ways. One of the major most important things that it does is it pulls our spiraling economy out of the nose dive that it is currently in. Many people wonder how is this so? Well it's like this the current cost of medicare the way it is today is way more than what the government can handle. This is so due to Social Security basically paying for medicare. That doesn't sound like a big deal because most of the people who are getting medicare are people over 65 right? Yeah that's true but there are about to be a whole lot more people over the age of 65 at one time in America. The baby boomers are getting older. Whats going to happen there is there isn't going to be enough Social Security funds to pay for medicare. The way that medicare is now the system is very flawed. This was supposed to be free Health care to some but people still have to pay premiums, get supplemental insurance,or pay deductibles. I probably didn't do the best job of explaining this but if you want a great explanation of all this, check out this documentary: I.O.U.S.A.

Another great thing that this bill will do is increase jobs. I will eliminate the high cost of health insurance that employers will have to pay for their employees. This will also increase the number of patients to hospitals and clinics so it should increase the need of Health Care workers and put some out of work Health Care workers to work. I also think that this will be a great help to the hospital systems. Now big county hospitals like Grady Hospital in Atlanta won't be on the verge of Bankruptcy all the time.

Lastly the out of pocket cost to Americans. There are thousands if not millions of Americans that are swamped by hospital debt and have no way of paying it off. This reform will take such a load off of the shoulders of the hard working average American. I pray that none of you reading this will ever have to go through a time that you would need to pay a large hospital bill, but for those of us who have already this is the biggest and most direct impact to people like us, the average American.

Well that's just how I feel about the situation. Please leave comments expressing your views and how you feel about it and what you want to see done with it. I thank you for all your support and for reading and don't forget to tell a friend about me

first issue

Hello people today is 7/24/09 and there is a lot of stuff going on in the world today. One of the biggest headlines is Obama's remarks on the arrest of Harvard professor, Henry Louis Gates Jr. For those of you who don't know the story, Gates is a Harvard professor that was arrested in his own home after it was broken into.

Now with this being one of the biggest news makers in the nation of course our President Barack Obama has heard about this incident. When questioned on this subject Obama responded , that the Cambridge police acted stupidly. With this remark Obama essentially threw a can of gasoline on an already heated situation. That brings us to this headline on cnn.com in which the Cambridge police want an apology from the President.

According to the reports of the Cambridge police, Gates was uncooperative with them once they arrived on the scene and he refused to show his identification. The report goes on to say that Gates was arrested due to disorderly conduct and that those charges were subsequently dropped. Cambridge officer James Crowley states that Gates immediately took it as a race issue and that he refused to talk to the police.

Alright, on this one i think that both sides were wrong. I do however agree with Obama and think that the police acted stupidly. There was no reason what so ever to arrest that man in his own home, Yeah he may have been a little upset and uncooperative at first, but what man wouldn't who just had his home broken into. They charged the man with disorderly conduct. That's not a real crime or anything to be charged with. Disorderly conduct basically gives a cop to arrest you for speaking your mind.(being a smart mouth) In my opinion they should have let him cool down and try later. Now i am not saying it was totally the officers' fault. Mr. Gates should have composed himself and been more cooperative with the cops.

Alright ladies and gentleman I am going to cut this one short. i do apologize for the late post but I had a lot of page editing to do and some other things. Please feel free to comment on today's topic or leave a comment on anything you want comments are greatly appreciated. On tommorrow i will be opening the discussion on The Health Care Reform that Obama is proposing and the daily news. As i said before this is a work in progress thank you for your support and tell a friend about me.
