During an appearance on Fox News America Live with Megyn Kelly, House Republican Leader John Boehner (R-OH) discussed President Obamas bipartisan health care summit and said Americans want Democrats to scrap their trillion-dollar government takeover of health care and start over to work together on common-sense solutions the American people support. Boehner also said that, I don’t see any reason to allow the president to have a six-hour infomercial about his bill and I have no problems going down there and pointing out what I think the flaws in his bill are, and outlining what we think are common sense steps to make our system work better. Following are highlights of Boehners interview and accompanying video: BOEHNER ON AMERICANS WANTING TO SCRAP THE DEMS BILL AND START OVER WITH COMMON-SENSE REFORMS: Well, Megyn, the American people understand that our health care bill, and the health care system in America needs to be fixed. And as a result, I think we have an obligation to see if we cant find common ground, but the Presidents double-down on his proposal by basically adding a huge tweak to the Senate bill and continuing to try to sell this to the American people. And so I think we have an obligation to give to them, the President, to them, our Democratic colleagues, make it clear we think they should scrap this bill, this big government takeover, start with a clean sheet of paper and try to do those common sense steps to make our current health care system work better …

Mr. Boehner, please stop deigning to speak for “the American People.” Your disapproval poll numbers are below 30%. Most of what you say is diametrically opposed to what I believe, and every time you claim to speak for me, my anger at you grows. Try being content in your own arrogant self righteousness. Isn’t that enough? No need to rope me into that, so STOP doing it PLEASE!
they don’t want to abide by the Constitution or adhere to the american people There will be hell to pay!
You are one insane fucktard. You should be locked up.
@johnnyohness
Government healthcare is ALWAYS worse. It is government that causes premiums to rise. It is government that makes people too poor to afford healthcare. The way to solve healthcare is to get government OUT OF THE WAY.
@johnnyohness
The monopoly is GOVERNMENT. The American people have more to fear from government intrusion into healthcare than from the insurance companies. In fact, the very problem with healthcare is the government persecuting innocent insurance companies. Less government intrusion delivers more healthcare.
@johnnyohness
You are a joke. Everyone knows that Fox is the MOST TRUTHFUL and MOST HONEST and MOST OBJECTIVE and MOST TRUSTWORTHY of all news networks in America. Fox tells more truth than all other networks combined.
@cjfilmproductions
Doing nothing = not making healthcare WORSE.
Stopping the Democrats’ bill is morally IMPERATIVE. It is only an option, it is the moral option.
It is government that steals our money and makes healthcare unaffordable. More government intrusion into healthcare will only make healthcare WORSE.
@cjfilmproductions
The republicans are doing the right thing by opposing a disastrous and tyrannical bill. It is common sense to not make healthcare WORSE.
the republicans would be opposing anything the democrats proposed just to earn political points anyone with an once of common sense can see that.
Doing nothing =thousands dead every year .
How is that even an option?we have spend billions upon billions on this war on terrorism for what? so we can be safe to die at home from a treatable illness?
This has to be a JOKE. Everyone knows Fox is nothing but HACKS for the right wing NUTS. They are purveyors of half truths and out right lies spun
to look like truth. They are the premier outlet for right wing propaganda and disinformation. Whats worse they don’t apologize for it. Fox admits its RATINGS FIRST every thing else is second. Ever notice how Beck talks to the viewers like they were 3rd graders. Hannity spits lies with out taking a breath. FOX the worst lies on television.
That would be fine IF you could stop the H/C MONOPOLY from dropping people when they get sick and need their Ins. Raise premiums 39% in one whack. Dropping people for stupid reasons like achene or other trivial things after paying premiums for years. My premiums are 1581.00 per mo and I afraid to use it, I might be dropped. That is more than my home mortgage. What’s it going to be next year?
We must have change NOW. None but the rich can keep this up. .
@cjfilmproductions Tell us what is wrong with this H/C bill.
What could be worse than 40 million W/O H/C. What could be worse than H/C premiums up 39% What could be worse than being dropped when you get sick and need care. The Repubs are in the pockets of the H/C ind. and don’t want change because the H/C Ins. Ind pays for their campains. They could give a shit about the common man. It’s all about keeping their fat asses in their cushy jobs period.
Bohner could give a crap about H/C He and his ilk have ONE thing in mind. Do NOT allow Obama to achieve anything. Dont matter how good or how needed the legislation is just stop progress.
They think by doing this they will be put back in power. This tactic was invented by Nute Gringrich. and was used in the CONTRACT ON AMERICA. Cheat lie disrupt what ever you have to do, to hell with the public. Just make sure we keep our PLUSH JOBS and stay in office.
Why don’t you tell us about the other bills the Dems rammed through. Name them for us.
Reconciliation has been the tool used by the Repubs time and time again. so tell us about the Dems ramming bills through.
@cjfilmproductions
Doing nothing is preferable to doing the wrong thing. The Demoncrats’ bill is WRONG and will only make healthcare WORSE. It is morally obligatory to stop the Progressive destruction of our healthcare system.
@johnnyohness
Obama’s plans are EVIL To pass no bill would be infinitely better than passing the wrong bill.
@HealthyPizza
Fox is the MOST legitimate of all American news networks. Fox is the MOST trustworthy. The “legitimacy” of Fox is not in question. It is the legitimacy of every other network that should be questioned. Fox is the standard every other station should be striving towards.
Well, the one that comes to mind the quickest is the 787 Billion (that’s with a ‘B’) “stimulus” bill that was 1100 pages and finalized mere hours before voting on it.
And then guys like scofflaw Charles Rangel saying something like, “I don’t know if it will do anything, but it feels good to know we did Something.” You rushed through a 787 Billion (that’s with a ‘B’) bill, Charles, and you don’t even have confidence it will work? Hey, thanks for that.
what bills have the democrats ramed through??a majority vote is not ramming throug a bill. this is better than nothing if it is all we can get we better get it now before the republicans destroy the rest of the bill.
Starting over is a time-wasting tactic? They should pass a bill that doesn’t even really help solve the problem? A bill that even Democrats don’t think is very good?
Democrats rammed through some of their other bills that were terrible, but they couldn’t ram through this one. Why is that? Because it’s even worse than the other ones is why.
What in the world are you basing your statements on? Pls link.
You sound selfish
