"In January 2003, after six years on the committee and four years as its minority spokesman, Obama became chairman of the Health and Human Services Committee. The new Democratic majority allowed Obama to write and pass more legislation than in previous years. He sponsored successful efforts to expand children's health care, create a plan to provide equal health care access for all Illinois residents, and create a "Hospital Report Card" system, and worker's rights laws that protected whistleblowers, domestic violence victims, equal pay for women, and overtime pay.[15] His most public accomplishment was a bill requiring police to videotape interrogations and confessions in potential death penalty cases. Obama was willing to listen to Republicans and police organizations and negotiate compromises to get the law passed.[16] That helped him develop a reputation as a pragmatist able to work with various sides of an issue.[6] Obama also led the passage of a law to monitor racial profiling by requiring police to record the race of drivers they stopped.[17]"

and yet his wife's hospital she helps administrate had a settlement for dumping people and she makes $350k from a non-profit, that ironically has been profiting off poor by charging anywhere from 3.5X more to 5.6X more than insured people oh yeah, they have been averaging over $100 million a year as a non-profit, lol.
the services he changed was the income required for a program that was already instated. he changed it from $28k to $30k.
obama is full of half-truths and has yet to do 1 thing he has promised his own state.
Just like hillary in New York as senator, BTW. Now we get her for SOS.... do 2 people telling half-truths and accomplishing nothing for their states mean they will now tell 1/4 truths and accomplish even less for the country?
People believe the Obama machine. Rarely, do they really examine that he is very scripted, says a lot of nothing & flip flops more than any other nominee. Oh, and did I mention that he lies???
What nonsense. Bush was scripted because he had nothing to say, and most of the time, he still got it wrong while sounding like he was reading. He's the village idiot after all. Talk about lying. He lied to go to war, get serious. Lied to hide the strategic military blunders. Lied about not being interested in "nation-building." Lied by pretending that he knew what the hell he was doing up there even when it was obvious he didn't have a clue.
Obama may be scripted, but this is because of the opposite reason. He is far too articulate and intelligent to speak freely, tying all the conservatives up in a bundle. So scripts are necessary to enable all to understand the message he wants to convey.
obama has brought his overwhelming intelligence to all 57 states. we are all very impressed.
