Why does Barack Obama's Health Care plan deny some Americans the care they need?
Isn't it a bit hypocritical to callit a "universal health care" plan in this case? I am beginning to think that Senator Obama has some issues with character and trust.

2. He doesn't deny it to anyone.
The difference is that he won't FORCE anyone to pay for health insurance, esp. if they can't afford it.

5. It doesn't deny anybody health care
Maybe you're confused about the talking point, that isn't it. You should PM Elmer of Wyldwolf, they'll give you the correct line.

6. And, it really isn't a heathcare plan,
it's a health insurance plan - but then so is Hillary's only she'll force you to line the pockets of the insurance companies and their shareholders. At least Obama allows people to make their own decisions.

8. Ya might want to read her old friend Robert Reich's comments
about her low brow tactics on this issue.

She is only hurting herself by resorting to distortion and outright lies.
