Obama at Facebook Townhall: The Republicans Are the Radical Ones! Not Courageous!
Posted on April 20, 2011 at 6:45pm by Emily Esfahani Smith Print » Email »

PALO ALTO, Calif. (AP) — President Barack Obama said Wednesday that congressional Republicans are pushing a radical plan to trim Medicare and Medicaid, ramping up the rhetoric as he and Congress approach crucial decisions on spending and the nation’s debt.

“I think it’s fair to say that their vision is radical,” Obama told a town hall gathering at the headquarters of Facebook, the huge social network company.



“I don‘t think it’s particularly courageous,” he said of the GOP plan to convert Medicare to a voucher program and make big cuts to the federal-state Medicaid program for the poor.

“Nothing is easier than solving a problem on the backs of people who are poor, or people who are powerless, or don’t have lobbyists, or don’t have clout,” Obama said.

Other Democrats have called the GOP plan radical, but the president generally has used less pungent language. Even as he sharply criticized the Republicans’ spending proposals Wednesday, he said he believes the two parties can reach an accord on long-range plans to cut deficits by about $4 trillion over the next decade.

Obama made the comments in a friendly environment — one with 19 million friends, in fact. He told Facebook employees and others watching online the nation must invest vigorously in education, clean energy and research that are vital to future jobs and a strong economy.

Making the case for his own deficit-cutting plans, Obama said that one way to trim health care costs could involve doctors sharing medical information on Facebook, the hugely successful social network.

HA HA HA HA... That's just what people need to do, post more information about themselves on a social network riddled with phishers looking for information to help them steal your identity...

These are our leaders people... they want you to sacrifice yourself like little lambs and get your life screwed up even more.

January 2013, it cannot come soon enough...

um,, today is wednesday and I have heard nothing of him seriously suggesting doctors share patients information(doctor patient privilege and all), also I understand there is actually a private setting on facebook,,,,,

Obama is a douche` to the max! I got to find humor in how people defend him like moms defending their kids after the kid beats the crap out of them!

DOUCHE`! OBAMA IS A DOUCHE`! God it feels good saying that!

So Obama wants US to be completely transparent!


DOUCHE`! Sack of crap douche` bag!


Listening to him speak is like listening to one long insult!

I find sadness in how people call him names like children,,,I guess thats the balance of life,,,

jesus... barrys ideas get dumber and dumber all the time...

And he is a douche bag!

I refuse to grow up any more and be a grumpy adult!

And Obama is also a doo doo pee pee pants too.



Oh yeah!

Id love to see/hear the quote and context of what he ACTUALLY said, instead of a knee jerk summation ,,,,


the quote

'We waste so much on health care. We spend about 20 percent more than any other country on Earth, and we have worse outcomes because we end up having multiple tests when we could just do one test and have it shared among physicians on Facebook, for example.'

Patient's Right to Privacy!

Also the cost of health care needs to be addressed. Not having the government trying to pay what people cannot afford. Obama care is a sell out move. Not a repair.

there is no conflict there, patients usually sign waivers releasing information to relevant sources such as other hospitals and doctors and facebook messages are private just like emails,,,..something I forgot until I took a look at my facebook and all the messages my son sent me while in college that only I Can see,,,

Your kidding right?

Hackers...

Duh!

well, that would just about hold up if hacking wasnt illegal,,,

dishonest people will always find access to information, that doesnt mean information will ever stop being shared or that it should be

it's not a bad idea, but facebook is not the answer... hospitals make enough money to get there own private internet for that

I agree, the facebook reference was probably a first thought because of the audience he was speaking to

i think he was just using it as a reference, and didn't have a name for it yet... sickbook, maybe?...

..we probably wouldn't waste as much if we had QUALITY health care..and yes the stories i could tell to prove otherwise..not to mention the wasted time in waiting rooms because of over booking...

overbooking is your greedy doctors fault...

I sit wit a friend sometimes in the public clinic here.

He is on medicare. I see, folks with private insurance get wisked in without much of a wait while, those on social insurance wait hours.
