(From Webb City, Missouri.)
12:14pm: When is this thing supposed to start? The campaign feel seems to be exciting the crowd. This contrasts so hard with the "9/12" protests on FOX.
Estimates of 60,000 at the 9/12 thing. It'll be interesting when we get numbers on POTUS's Rally.
1:07pm: "Health care is one of those fundamental struggles"
1:08pm: "Middle class Americans" are the ones struggling the most.
1:09pm: "We gotta do something."
1:12pm: "It's now been a century since teddy rosevelt called for health care reform." "The time is now."
1:15pm: "The time for bickering is over. The time for games has past. Now is the time for action."
Crowd starts familiar "Yes We Can" chant.
1:16pm: "When you're talking to your neighbor, or buying starbucks, or whatever you're doing." nice shout out?
1:17pm: "WHEN I SIGN THIS BILL." Tough language!
1:18pm: "Nobody should go broke because they got sick."
1:23pm: "How you gonna pay for it?" Answer.... "Control of our federal budget." "Will not sign a plan that adds one dime to our deficit." Will not make "Iraq war" payment mistake when it comes to health care.
1:24pm: "Most of savings can come from money that's already being spent in the health care sysyem."
1:28pm: "Common sense" health care solutions. I.e. electronic records.
1:29pm: "Will not accept status quo."
1:30pm: "I never said change would be easy."
***PROTESTOR!!!! YAY!*************
1:34pm: POTUS telling greenwood story again.
1:39pm: "One voice can change a room, and if it can change a room it can change a city, and if it can change a city it can change a state. if it can change a state it can change a nation. and if it can change a nation, it can change health care."
1:40pm: "FIRED UP?" "Fired up!" "READY TO GO?" "ready to go!" "THEY CAN'T STOP US NOW."
