After more than a year of bitter partisan debate the Democratic-controlled Congress passed Sunday night Obama’s historic health care reform bill with a 219-212 vote, extending health care to tens of millions of uninsured Americans and move the country toward a more primary care-based health care system.
“Tonight, after nearly 100 years of talk and frustration, after decades of trying and a year of sustained effort and debate, the United States Congress finally declared that America’s workers and America’s families, and America’s small businesses deserve the security of knowing that here in this country neither illness nor accident should endanger the dreams they have worked a lifetime to achieve”, the president said in televised remarks.
The measure, which cleared the Senate end of last year, will now go to Obama’s desk to be signed into law.
“We proved that we are still a people capable of doing big things. We proved that this government — a government of the people and by the people — still works for the people,” Obama said.

Well, one more step towards the end of the U.S.A.
The country says no, so we get it anyways because there’s no way that we could possibly know what is best for us!
HEAR THIS CONGRESS… WE WILL VOTE YOU OUT!!! YOU’RE DONE! PACK YOUR BAGS SO YOU’RE READY IN NOVEMBER!!!
The arrogance of this administration is staggering.
Now, if you don’t mind… I’m going to go start working overtime to pay for EVERYBODY ELSE’ HEALTH CARE.
Thanks Comrade!
