It Figures… Obama Blames The GOP For The Health Care Bill On “60 Minutes”

It figures. Barack Obama blamed the Republicans for the fact that democrats rammed through their unpopular health care bill without a single Republican vote.

Barack Obama:

“I made the decision to go ahead and do it. And, it proved as costly politically as we expected. Probably actually a little more costly than we had expected… Partly because I couldn’t get the kind of cooperation from Republicans that I hoped for. We thought that if we shaped a bill that wasn’t that different from previous bills that had introduced by Republicans, including the Republican governor in Massachusetts who’s now running for president, that we would be able to find some common ground there and we just couldn’t.”

Here are a few points regarding his statement:
- The health care bill was passed before not after the unpopular financial bill.
- Mitt Romney is not currently running for president.
- We’ve never been a bill like this proposed nationally unless you count Hillarycare.
- Obama was pushing the bill for over a year before democrats rammed it through.
- It was the central focus of his first two years in office.
- They didn’t even read the bill.
- Democrats thought it would be more popular by the midterm election.
- His other emergency economic proposals were complete bombs, too.

Of course, Steve Croft did not bother to question the president about any of his inaccurate statements.

  1. Hey Oidiot, you can take your unconstitutional mandatory health insurance and shove it. Same goes for your Marxist agenda.

  2. One more thing Oidiot, you half white, half black piece of trash. We Americans did not like the republican version either. A state has the power to mandate health insurance if it written in their constitution. The Federal government does not. Your shear ignorance is astounding, saddening and scary.

    America's first communist president can say what he wants. The voters know better. At one point people would believe every untruth he uttered. Ironically, it is because of the health care debate, and the attendant backroom deals involving lies, extortion, bribery, etc., that the American people are now engaged with the political process and realize that Obama and the truth are virtual strangers. His Jedi mind tricks are useless now.

  4. He wasn't questioned about his inaccurate statements of Obama, because the news media don't want the citizens to see the truth. I don't see why the public don't abandone the liberal media and not even support their sponsors, along with fail to view them. I know that would be hard to do because they are like paint. They cover up everything. Everyone knows what they are. Obama also makes those statements because he is a barefaced liar and thinks th citizens will believe him.

  5. This Jerk doesn't know how to tell the truth about anything. He & the Democrats, would not even let any Republicans participate in any of their closed door meetings regarding the healthcare bill. From what I have read, similar events went on pertaining to other things the Dems rammed through, because they didn't need any Republican votes.

  6. The new Republicans should now set up appropreations for Congress to form a committe to start the proceedings to remove from office the president because of Communist/Islam ideas contrary to our Constitution of the USA. and all the lies and intentional meaningless spending to destroy America financially, as is ordered by the QU'RAN by Muhammad–to destroy the 'infidel' any way possible and by any means! A man who lied about his birth to seek the office of president unlawfully should Not be tollerated! A man of vacations rather than taking care of the peoples business, appologizing for America to his arab friends and bragging on what Islam has done for America??? what? A man who is tongue tied w/out a teleprompter and is untruthful even on it. Leaving out importance to words in our Constution to change meanings. The "Change" should be to rid the White House of its occupants and all the czars and tax fraud carreer politicions out at the next election. The sooner the better for our survival!

    The Manchurian Muslim Pres Obamacare Has Two Groups To Blame For Anything That Turns To Sh-t, Yikees, Number One BIOB "Blame It On Bush" Or Number Two "BIOR" Blame It On Republicans". This President Is A Complete Joke As Barry Soetoro AKA Barack Obama Cub Scout USA, Yikees.

  8. This guy is toast. The next two years are going to be very difficult for him. I'm feeling a prediction coming on. "O" approval rating is going to hit the upper 20's and the democrats are going to throw him under that same bus he threw his own grandmother under during the campaign of 2008. The problem I for see in that case is that his head is swelled so big that it may not fit under that bus. The other problem is if he does not make it to 2012, we get say it ain't so Joe by default. Sometimes I think Joe is smoking something that sends him into la la land. Listen to the things this guy has said the last two years. It reminds me a song by Talking Heads, one of the lines is something like this: "You may ask yourself, How did I get here". That's our VP Joe. Have a good day.

  9. Of course barry would "blame" republicans for the obamacare bill – -just as he blames GWB for his own "overspending", etc. I always tended to blame princess botox for the healthcare debacle – -never thought "she" was a republican, or even connected (lol)!
