But I agree with you on the every content of the diary except the word “gaffe”.

It’s not a gaffe. It’s the truth. LOL!

one can see the strings attached to the Obama character. At one point you can even see the shadow of the manipulator on the wall.

The shadow looks for all the world like………

Nah. Couldn’t be.

Tommy Crown? Is that you?

and I was just about to post the same sort of Diary (unfortunately my notebook crashed and Jeff beat me too it during he reboot) as this was just too hilarious — Teleprompter Boy goes off teleprompter and steps in it, as usual. Of course, the mainstream media will ignore this latest blunder.

Several other blogs are already reporting on this and using the video clip, which is just great.

Now if only our Republican “leaders” will freeze it, ridicule it, etc., etc. ala Alinsky.

Thank you.

The conservative critique is that if government provides an insurance option that competes with private insurance, the private insurance won’t stand a chance.

Well, the post office is a public option for mail delivery, while fed ex and UPS are private options. Last time I checked, those companies are doing just fine. Where’s the gaffe?

No one is proposing a single-payer system, or a socialized system, so just like the post office vs FedEx/UPS, the public option will compete with private insurance. If only private insurance companies can provide quality and affordable insurance, than what is the problem with a government option?

Most Americans are fully aware of how FedEx and UPS came to be and the fight to compete with the tiresome dinosaur of the Post Office and he actually made our point that the Post Office being run by the government is inefficient.

Hey bluddogs etc if he is the best you got you guys are in trouble!

The worst thing is this: He even corroborated or further elevated the issue of “health care rationing”.

Further, he lied when he said that he had no knowledge of the FB memo by that “Private Citizen” or that memo didn’t matter at all.

he first came into the spotlight. The man may be good at reading off a teleprompter, but that doesn’t qualify as being eloquent.

As for Justinmeister’s comment…well, if Congress decided to stack the regulatory deck against FedEx and UPS in the same manner as HR3200 and the other versions of “health care reform” do, FedEx and UPS wouldn’t be doing so well.

Tell me again how this bozo got through college.

Oops that would be French….my bad!

I will add one more tidbit since most has been covered.

The postal service has 2 types of products. Market dominant (first class and standard mail) product and competitive products (packages). They use the market dominant product to subsidize the competitive product and purposely lose money on packages knowing no one would use their service at all if they charged their actual cost. They can not compete with UPS and FE, even with a huge in place infrastructure because of their agreements with their unions.

Using this as a basis of thought for how they might run the “public option” would they just continue to cost shift until there were no other private options? Will unions take over all of health care?

Further, would they ultimately force the take over of all delivery systems (hospitals and doctors) by requiring service with no payment? The USPS will not allow anyone to do door to door delivery since they know ultimately they can not compete. Their legacy costs are killing them (guananteed pensions)

Imagine all medical delivery provided by the government run by SIEU thugs…

Let’s not forget last summer that he said something along the line of “I can’t hear myself think” teleprompter was broken then due to storm.

We have to fight, call all the blue dogs, I call my rep weekly, including my senators. Two weeks ago I called Ted kennedy’s office, once to voice my opposition to bill, then John Kerry’s, then my rep, Ed Markey, I was very angry that day, Kerry’s office wanted my zip code, no name, phone number, like most ask. I called Ted K’s office agin to tell them that I do not agree with him 99% of the time, man told me he knows we want to hear from him, whether we are for or against.

I called Kerry’s office later to leave VM to say he works for us, etc. I was still very angry after reading most relevant pages of billl. Last Friday I had five emails from Kerry, all about healthcare. The dems have been handed talking points, I never heard from him when he was running for president.

The only emails I have to read are Red State, Powerline and Heritage and I know pretty much of what is going on in USA.

Don’t you just hate it when the facts rear their ugly head and smack down the propaganda?

“The Post Office is the one in trouble” — ROFL

The duality is the amazing thing — I really wish folks would realize the Presbo is a fairly smart guy — statements like that reveal that he actually has a handle on the problems, but is a slave to some ideology that is at odds with the job he has, at odds with the oath he took,

If we assume we’re stuck whit him in the drivers seat until Jan 2013, the better question might be: What steps can be taken to purge the shadow government? — the folks pulling his strings.

He and his policies are clearly wounded, but no legitimate force is going to alter the Political reality. The Congress and the courts are equally corrupt, but they are the figureheads — Let’s go after the Eminence Gris the ones truly calling the shots. These dark figures all have one true weakness, they are not entitled to the legal courtesies that the elected officials enjoy. When lights are turned up, and their evil is exposed, their influence can be eliminated.

I have long had the same opinion of his oratorical abilities. Take away his Binky, and he’s proven to be just a high-priced reader.

Thjis is right on the money.

the Post Office has any number of problems, and the only reasons it is still in existence despite providing a level of service and reliability that would drive a private entity out of business are its monopoly on mail delivery and the fact that, because it is government-run, it can lose an unlimited amount of money and remain both in business and in the competition.

There’s no evidence whatsoever to suggest that the Post Office’s existence in the package-delivery marketplace has had the effect of forcing FedEx and UPS to improve their service or to become more competitive.

We need to remember it.

as much as you trust a fox in chicken coop. The federal government has destroyed medi- care which is said will be insolvent by 2020, pretty much all but filled the grave with dirt on top of social security, Which I’ve heard that will be broke by 2041. Now there are two good inspirations to make you trust gov. . More recent, Obamas’ great bailout the first one not the one with the auto companies also called “tarp”. Now there was confidence in government action. Obama says we need, we need, we need a bailout now or unemployment could continue to rise, well GUESS WHAT IT DID ANYWAY. Even after every C.E.O you can think of gave there self a raise. At least when bush passed a bailout I got a check to bank back into the economy, all I got from the big “O” was a tab! 2008 Census says 304,059,724 million people live in America the big “O” says 47,000,000 million are without coverage, O.K. Well 257,059,724 million are insured than in one way or another now that doesn’t look to bad to me. The system could use a tweak here and there but not a complete overhaul and definitely not by the government . Like some folks said at a town hall meeting this guy took 5 months to choose a family dog and wants to overhaul the medical system with a 1000+ page bill in 6 wks. when 3/4 of Americans already have health care (run the numbers it is public info.). Lets not even talk about the trillion dollar tab announced by the C.B.O,, and I think that only covers 15 million of Obamas 47 million. This guy is really crazy. If he isn’t trying to spend money he is trying to print it.
