2 years ago this guy was a Jr. Senator from Chicago that people thought had no chance of taking down "The Clinton Machine" to even become the Democratic nominee.
Now this guy has passed a 1 trillion dollar stimulus package, billions of dollar is jobs bills. Laid the foundation for environmental reform, financial reform, and is basically running the American banking system. On top of that, he does what no Democrat has been able to do for the past 40 years, governmentize Health Care.
I called him a ? before, and I am extremely far from being liberal. But you got to kiss this ? ? 's ring. Dude is the trillest, he comes in smiling but will smite thee if you ? him off.
Got to give props where they are due.

ppl are unusally quiet now that this health bill is passed.
That nicca is goin hard. -
Obama is the man!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! He's a true legend for sure, although I hope to ? this healthcare bill doesn't bankrupt the country. It's supposedly paid for but the bill is really expensive, the only reason I'm proud of Obama is because I trust him. Much more than Republicans anyway......it's also good to know I won't have to worry as much about healthcare as my parents did, even if I lose my job. Incredible night for America.

It's not expensive in the sense that this bill is going to money that we were't going to spend. It's expensive in the sense that it cost money. It was money that was going to be spent regardless. How it saves money is that it doesn't cost as much as we would have spent had we left things the way that they are.
Think of it as cooking at home vs. going out to eat. You still got to eat, so you are going to spend money. If you go to the grocery store, you probably can get a lot more food for a lot less than if you went to a resturant. If you got someone at the crib who can chop it up, it might even taste better. -

Of course I know that, I don't trust him in the same manner I trust my mother, but he does seem genuine in what he speaks about. Everything he's done so far has been consistent with what he said he was going to do during the campaign. For that level of genuineness, I trust him more than any other politician out there. Especially much more than the scumbag piece of trash Republicans, who ? us over with the war in Iraq. We're going to be paying for that war for a long time in lives and hatred. -

Very good point but 30 more million people will be added to the insurance rolls, that is definitely going to be a heavier weight than the weight we have now. I support the bill overall, but let's be honest, Medicare and Social Security ended up being MUCH more expensive than LBJ thought it would be. -

HAHAHAHA, man if Obama can really pay for my gas and mortgage, I'd let him be a dictator for life. I would love so much to be lazy and just sit around the house all day, like this lady wishes she could do. -

Meh. If your worried about the cost I wouldnt even pay attention to the CBO estimates. Them shitz is cooked to hell.
Doesnt matter though, we are already way past over spent...this trillion dollar bill wont really make much of a difference. -
Props for leading us towards total government control? Nah, im good.

Why do people like you keep posting this one incident of a stupid black person, like all black people think like this.
Stop being fooled by the propaganda.
That was another case of the camera man looking for the most ignorant black person in the crowd. -

not really, it's not Health Care Reform, it's the insurance from my understanding, the Health Care will still be in many ways the same. -
yall need to be bowing to Rahm Emmanual, he the one that got the ? done

Who picked Rahm as Chief of Staff? (The Netroot Liberals HATE Rahm, btw. *HATE* him.)
Could've played it safe and picked Axelrod. But he wanted a ballbreaker who knew Congress. -

and yes, this is just a beginning (of healthcare reform). there's still issues that need to be resolved, but this legislation passing is definitely a great first step.
Hey, I give props where props are due. Even though I totally disagree with just about everything he is doing. ? it, he is doing it. Clinton cant say that. Jimmy Carter cant say that. Hillary Rodham cant say that. Ted died before he even got a chance to see it.
On a side note, Pelosi showed just how powerful she is too, that old plastic looking ? dont play no games when it comes to running the House. -
