Yes, the fear tactics have started. Got to get this pushed through, approved and signed ASAP.
Hogwash..get the details out on the table. How will this $1.2 trillion plan be paid for ?

Obama is the ticking time bomb.

Those on the Left generally use fear tactics to push forward an agenda. Things tend to be a "crisis". Or, we must take care of "children".

There is no "ticking time bomb" - what a crock of liberal BS.

Keep taking on new debt with no repayment plan and the US will surely go bankrupt sooner rather than later.

Obama has taken fearmongering to a new, higher level! Barry seems much better at fearmongering than Bush ever was.

And his followers will believe every word of it.

Why is everything always such a rush with Obama? Honest question. Is he afraid of something hiding in the bill that will kill it if found? Seems awful suspect to me. Reminds me of all the things people found in the past bills he's tried to rush through citing crisis or some other horrific result if not passed.

Can't help but chuckle... there is that good ole fashioned visceral fear again... TICKING TIME BOMB.... BOOM! be afraid, it could blow at any second.

Almost reminds me a little of Bush's warnings about mushroom clouds in the US if Congress didn't give him authority to go to war.


Yeah, one thing you can always count on, the use of fear is like a well that never runs dry. Sure health care needs reformed and sure it sucks bog water, but ticking time bomb?!... oy
