Filed under: Quote of the Day > Politik > Barack Obama > Hillary Clinton
“I think my strong advocacy for universal health care puts me in a much better position [than Obama] to take on John McCain. You know McCain is going to get up there and say ‘I have a health plan. It’s going to cover a lot of people.' I think it would be a big mistake for Democrats to nominate someone who has already conceded on the issue of universal health care."
- Hillary Clinton on Saturday, about Barack Obama's health care plans for uninsured Americans

Re: vote for HILL –
That's right, Republican Obaba planned this out with the other fuck buddie Republican's. You people vote him as the nominee and then the Republican's get to win again. They can win against him, but not Hilary. Hilary is so wonderful. No one will ever do what the gay's want, so don't trash Hilary about the gay's.
Go Hilary…I love that New York took the Superbowl and now it's time for New York's Senator to take the Presidency..oh yea…
PEREZ:
WHY HAVE YOU NOT YET POSTED THAT AWESOME PICTURE OF MICHELLE OBAMA WITH CAROLINE KENNEDY, MARIA SHRIVER, AND OPRAH?

Ever think that Obama's inititals are B.O.? I hope that is not a sign of things to come!
If he gets the nomination I will vote for Romney cause he is the only one who pledges to get the Illegals out of our country.
Oprah is a fake and Maria Shriver is a cunt. I know and no I will not vote for who they support. If you knew what I do you wouldn't vote for their candidate either.
Re: OBAMA BARAWKS!! –
Obaba wouldn't even tell his people that he is a TRUE BLUE
REPUBLICAN! With Hilary, there are no secrets to come out. Everything we know about her and Bill are public. Obaba, well
we haven't found anything except that boy on u-tube that had sex with him..oh, he's A REPUBLICAN, THAT'S FOR SURE IN A DEMOCRAT'S CLOTHING.
THE CLINTON'S LEFT G.W. A SURPLUS OF 200 BILLION DOLLARS TO THE GOOD FOR OUR TREASURY, AND NEVER STARTED ONE WAR, NOW THAT'S A RECORD. Bill Clinton, best PRESIDENT EVER, and so will Hilary. SUCK ON THAT FUCKFACE.
EVIDENTLY, you don't want a smooth economy and cheap gas and jobs created. Go live in a communist third world country if you don't want what Hilary can offer. The rest of us sure do want the good old days.
By voting for Ali Obama, you are putting John Mc Cain in the Presidency and that's means 100 more years of WAR..PEOPLE,
get ready for the DRAFT, McCain wantz to WIN the WAR at all
COZTZ..THIZ IZ YOUR KIDZ WE ARE TALKING ABOUT, WTC?
Re: George –
talking with you is just a waste of time, you obviously never get educated or travelled!!!
there is not EU resident type==> because we are 25 different countries!!!
IF YOU INDEED WERE EUROPEAN YOU ALREADY KNEW THAT!!!
in general healthcare represents 5% of your salary
but in my country it's 20% of taxes for a whole package: universal healthcare, education ( all free from pre-kindergarten to Universty. University is free you just have to suceed to the pre- test), pension (which is reversed as 75% of your last salary each month from your 60 to the end of your life!!!) ,unemployement insurance ( if you loose your job, during the period you are seeking for another, 70% of your last earning is paid to you each month) and 5 weeks o paid vacation.= so 20% is not that bad for all this things ! !
and the salarys are pretty decents====> after all taxes I earn 3000 euros ( multiplicate by 1.47 for having it in dollars) but i just finished my studies.
I don’t have to worry about me or my family healthcare, my children’s education nor my pension !
so what can you have there for 20% or your earnings?
OH AND PLS STOP PRETENDING YOU ARE EUROPEAN!!! your words scream out loud that you are a racist, ignorant idiot that never left his village!!!
shame on you for everything!!
Re: Perez Fan –
yes right!!! stoopid stoopid!!! notes are post almost immediatly, you dumbe arse!!
you try to make us think that the blog is rigged===> NO people are more into HILLARY get over it and stop whining!!!!
Hilary '08
I luv U zo much and I hope that Hilary knows how much you have helped her by talking politicz◘ What better zubject 2 talk about 4 people who like 2 argue..like me♥
zzzzzzzluvzzmyzzperez&myzzhillzz*zzbillzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz☼☼}
OPRAH HAS SAID THAT SHE BELIEVES ONLY A WOMAN LEADER CAN HELP AFRICA. THAT IS WHY SHE BUILT THE SCHOOL THEIR TO ONLY EDUCATE GIRLS!
IT MAKES ME WONDER IF HILLARY WAS BLACK WOULD SHE BE ENDORSING HER?
SADLY I THINK THE ANSWER IS YES!!
Re: GIVE IT UP OPRAH! –
and the Kennedy's are responsible for Marlyn Monroe dying and for Ted Kennedy's secretary's death..all covered up, so why would we care who they support?
I don't know who has been posting under my name, but they are representing to the fullest- thank you
!!
Mary (#524) I'm sorry to hear that you had it rough and grew up in the projects around people who treated you mean, BUT this is adulthood now . Do you even care what issues the candidates stand for?
Sorry you had a bad experience with AA, but don't blame everyone else for it. It's unfortunate that you have bought into the propoganda of the brown vs. black issue that Hillary has famously tried to use as a devisive factor. The fact is POVERTY makes people act out in ugly ways regardless what their color is. You probably would have been treated just as bad if you had been raised in a trailor park, and that is unfortunate and sucks. But, some politicians (Black, White, etc.) LOVE to divide minority groups, especially those who rely on government assistance- they NEED to keep everyone opposed to each other so they can take advantage of their position and decisions. Hope you see the big picture one day.
Re: GIVE IT UP OPRAH! – Stop with ALL of the racist crap. Their are MILLIONS of white ppl like myself who support Obama! So your vitirol towards Oprah is a moot point. She's black and he's half black…SO WHAT! Their are MILLIONS of white women who don't support Hillary and my mother is one of them. Is Maria ONLY supporting Obama because he is black? Are you only supporting Hillary because she is a woman? ALOT of you gave Oprah shit for supporting Barack and now more than half the country feels the same way. So who are the idiots now???
FIRST NY GIANTS NOW BRING ON HILLARY! THE ONLY QUALIFIED CANDIDATE! EDUCATE YOURSELVES PEOPLE, I AM SURE OBAMA IS A NICE MAN EVEN BRILLANT, HOWEVER EXPERIENCE AND HAVING SOME FOREIGN POLCY IS NEEDED IN OUR FUTURE, GO AWAY OPRAH, CAROLINE AND MARIA! YOUR ALL JUST RICH BUDDIES THAT HANG OUT TOGETHER!
You trust the government to be in charge of your health insurance? good luck, dumbass. expect to wait months to see a doctor and watch the quality of our health care go down the drain. how is the government going to pay for this? THEY ARE GOING TO GARNISH YOUR WAGES. Wake up! DOWN WITH UNIVERSAL HEALTH CARE! IT'S A SCAM! WAKE UP AMERICA!
OH MY GOD ARE YOU PEOPLE SERIOUS? DO YOUR HOMEWORK AND WATCH THE MOVIE "SICKO" HILLARY CLINTON IS THE SECOND HIGHEST RECIPIENT OF CAMPAIGN DONATIONS FROM THE HEALTH CARE INDUSTRY. SHE HAS RECEIVED NEARLy A MILLION DOLLARS FROM HEALTH CARE LOBBYISTS.
NO WONDER WHY SHE FOLDED LIKE A HOUSE OF CARDS WITH HER SO CALLED HEALTH CARE PLAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SHE IS A LIAR!!!!!

How about her stance on homosexuals. I cannot believe that you, as a homo, support her wak ass.
This type of idea is exactly what our friends to the North ( Canada ) have and it clearly works for them. Not sure why America is so concerned about. In the end isn't it important for all to be covered and not leave our 17million people like Obama's plan. He has some good ideas and seems to be an alright guy when he is not palying victim or slinging mud, but maybe a couple more years under his belt before he does the president thing…like 8 more years!
Hey Hillary how much is your "free health care" going to cost me and who's going to pay for it, the govt already takes 40% of my paycheck, so when you are Madame President you'll take 65% is that how everyone is going to get "FREE" healthcare????? What a stupid cunt you are!
Re: Reason says… –
MY COMMENT WAS NOT RACIEST! I'M SORRY YOU FEEL THAT WAY BUT THE FACTS ARE THE FACTS!
Some voice for the young people you are when in every primary/caucus to date Obama has been favored 3 to 1 over Hillary in the same demographic you cater to. I see you didn't add Will.i.am's "Yes We Can" Obama video either.. you're slippin Perez. I might have to boycott your site until after the elections are over
The people that says, Universal healthcare is not possible…a lot of countries in the world have universal free healthcare, and it has been being possible for ages.
Re: mery –
exactly!!!! ALL other developped countries have it and in all it's a great success!!
and are we poors or broken??
NO actually we are richer now..
not letting 17 millions without coverage will make you stronger, a richer country!!!
how it can be that people can't afford medication and treatment in a developped country !!!!!!!==> it only happen in under developped countries!!
A UNIVERSAL HEALTHCARE IS A STRONG SIGN OF POWER AND DEVELOPPEMENT!!
If you actually think that this shameless tool of the defence contractors has your best interests in mind, you really have no business voting. The Clinton's will say and do anything to get their filthy fingers back on the White House's gates. People like to talk about the bad old days when Bill was getting blow jobs in office like they were good times. Remember Whitewater, Travel Gate, Somalia, years of bombing Iraq, Washington gridlock, Vince Foster, Paul Tully, Ed Willey, Kathy Ferguson, Suzane Coleman……..the list goes on and fucking on. Even her universal health care debacle was enough to make me gag. It's never going to happen so get it out of your minds. How in God's name could anyone vote for another Clinton is beyond reasoning. Want endless war and a leap into the past when nothing in Washington got done and the only thing that you could count on was endless fighting between special interest groups? Vote for Hillary. If you want real change; you must vote for Barak. It's the only logical choice.
Re: scums –
What is so brilliant about Obama? Because he gives nice speeches?
Damn, you white folks are suckers… falling for a slick half-breed with fancy words.
Obama has no experience, no Washington knowledge, has done nothing as Senator for the state of Illinois and has no plan for this country- just alot of pretty words to make the white folks feel good.
Obama is a fraud! WAKE UP PEOPLE! Hillary is the only option we have. Vote of Obama and get ready to learn Chinese because China will take over the country and Obama won't stop them, instead give a nice speech.
Re: UNIVERSAL HEALTHCARE IS SUCCESSFUL –
You are absolutely right!
If Social Security is possible, the Universal Healthcare is possible.
MOVE OVER GEORGE W. THE CLINTONS WANT THEIR TURN OF RIPPING OFF THE AMERICAN PEOPLE. TRILLION OF DOLLARS ARE MISSING FROM THE WAR. THE CLINTONS WILL NEVER STOP THE WAR. THEY TOO WILL KEEP TO TROOP THERE AND CHANNEL FUNDS TO THEMSELVES AND ALL HER BUDDIES THAT SUPPORTED HER CAMPAIGN. HILLARY IS A PROFESSIONAL LIAR. SHE WILL DO AND SAY ANYTHING TO WIN. SHE WANTS TO CAP INTREST RATE FOR 5 YEARS. THIS WOMAN HAS NO COMMON SENSE. SHE STUDY THE NUMBERS WELL, BUT SHE CANNOT PUT IT ALL CORRECTLY IN ACTION. OBAMA CAN! ALL THE EXPERT SAYS THAT OBAMA IS RIGHT ON WHILE HILLARY IS WRONG. IF SHE WINS, GOD HELPS US.
Re: from Europe –
For me it is clear that you are a western block dude, enjoying the benefits of the cheap eastern block workforce (+the million turkish all over the place). So your comments are useless.
This comment from somone who couldn't get the job done the first time she had a chance. Any one remember? She has taken over $850.000.00 from the Health care industry and insurance company's.
A vote for Hilly is a vote for more of the same shit that we all ready have in office. Time for some new blood. OBOMA!!!!
All republicans pray Hillary will get the nomination. Trust me. She is just smart enough no to shit on herself.
well I think it would be a big mistake for democrats to vote for her!!! the clintons have a shady ass past and think about it: do you REALLY want the same two powerful families running the coutry for sever terms?!? THINK ABOUT THESE FAMILIES AND ALL THE POWER THEY HAVE!! AND WE KEEP PICKING THEM OUT OF EVERY ONE ELSE?! we already see Bush finishing his fathers work, and with the clintons shady past, i would hate to see what hillary would do to this country if they're in power yet again…the coccain smuggling, the money laundering and all of bills affairs?!? DO YOUR RESEARCH!!!!!
*RON PAUL 08!
Re: George –
UE is historically created by western Europe countries.. so get over it!!
western UE do not benefit from eastern europe it's actually the other way!!
workforce??? hahahahaha
hey it's time to face reality!!!
MY COMMENTS COUNT and you know why??? because you are a jealous, uneducated, unqualified and racist punk who envy western europe!!! yes envy!
because you did not answer my two questions: what can you get for 20% of you earnings and where are you from?
oh===> and i'm average european!!! so eat you heart out!! how is going your job as garbage man?
Re: George –
like in the US there is not 20 millions of illegals??? oh no……"rolling eyes"
i'm not benefit from anyone, i worked hard and studied hard!!
do you actually UE ==> western countries pay to support the developpement of the esatern countries each western contry give away at least 60 millions away to support them!!!!
workforce of what??? we here need qualified workforce==> on this point you are better wherever you are you could not stand a chance ineducate DUMB ARSE!!!
We need a change and she can do the change before America gets worse like another Rome. She has guts and can bring trust back to all of us, so my vote will be for the IRON WOMAN.
GO GO HILLARY GO GO HILLARY WHITE HOUSE AWAITS FOR YOU!!!!!!
as an english speaking, hard working american that does not expect handouts from anyone, i will obviously not be voting for her.
VOTE RON PAUL!!!!!!!!!!! BOOO HILL DOG!
Hillary gets a shitload of money from pharmaceutical companies… that woman is NOT going to bring about universal healthcare. Her 35 years of experience she keeps mentioning only means that she has more political debt to pay back once she's in office.
Plus, she was a friggin' Republican segregationist before she married Bill! Look it up, people! Don't be duped, Perez!!!!
OBAMA 08!!!
Re: Angie –
yeaaaaaaaa and OBAMA is a FRESHMAN who doesn't know a jack about issues!!!
diplomacy? no , global warming ? no, healthcare coverrage? haha, economics? nop!!
students in college can come with better plans…. check only his positions not his pretty face, charms and nice talk…
I love her!! You Go Mrs Hilary Clinton!!!
you do know Hills suggests garnishing wages of those who don't purchase health care insurance for her master plan, right?. Now, that's just dumb. IF i could PURCHASE HEALTH INSURANCE (which luckily i can now). don't you think i'd rather have it than not? why would you punish someone who can't really afford it? I WENT WITHOUT HEALTH CARE FOR NEARLY TEN YEARS. luckily i am fairly healthy, aside from normal flu/cold. If i'm wrong, please point me in the direction of an alternative. i read this months and months ago, and re read it early monday. and, as far as a re interpreted phrase for 'yes we can' goes, is there really copyright on those words? - not many aside from PARIS hilton can do that LOL. i really don't think obama stole that………..that's pushing it….gimmie a break that's like saying the nation 'stole' the happy birthday song., which the writer would contend we have…….that is actually copyrighted. GIMMIE A FUCKING BREAK. IF ANN FUCKING COULTER VOTES FOR HILLS………I'LL CHOOSE ANYONE BUT HER. she wasn't my first choice anyway……GA……..LOL
i cannot get enough of her! say hello to mrs. president! a vote for hilary is a vote for ALL of america.
And where does this money for universal health care come from? Hell, why don't we just give everyone in America a few million, that would cover health care too, or maybe we should just have doctors work for free. Either you think one of the above is logical or you should vote for RON PAUL, the only rational solution to a society mired in overspending without consequence.
Re: George – wealthy, huh, no, it means people who work. The wealthy never have much to fear, it's the middle class who gets f**cked
Re: Tom – What are you talking about, people get "stabilized" and then kicked out of a hospital, gee, doesn't that sound like a law suit waiting to happen? It would be the rare physician that would do that, and I agree (as I practice) that it should not be done. However, no health care is free, we need to put money back into the working populations hands (not inflating the bank accounts of the already wealthy) so they can afford health care. Emergency departments should still accept ill, uninsured people, who, with major re-vamping of the current economic situation, could one day at least have a fighting chance of improving their lot and have their own insurance coverage. But this good old boy network has got to be nipped in the bud. VOTE RON PAUL!
Re: quest – Most liberal on gay rights and such issues? What the hell has government to do with this? Look at our constitution, wasn't this why our country was founded, so people could be free from persecution of how how they decided to live their lives? Less government is better! VOTE RON PAUL!
Re: from Europe – Yeah, well we have this whole war thing that puts some pretty deep claws in our pockets dude, in case you haven't heard.
Re: nvt –
of course everybody knows…. that you went on war that was found on reasonable proofs, was sharply conceived and handled brilliantly……
you are such an idiot that I can't believe I'm wasting energy telling you so.
Re: from europe – No shit, that's why we need someone in office that is looking out for the public, instead of stuffing their pockets (I'm talking about you too Hilary). And no offense From Europe, I appreciate your comments, but I have also lived a fair portion of my life (& all my family is there) around Europe, and I would never consider living anywhere but here. The freedom is basic, we just need a government as it was meant to be, VOTE RON PAUL!
