While being questioned by Fox’s Bill O’Reilly about why there is so much bitterness following the ObamaCare vote, Pennsylvania Governor Ed Rendell falls back on the tired old liberal argument that the average American just isn’t quite smart enough to understand the complicated health care bill.
Maybe so, Governor, but you’d be surprised how many of those stupid Americans are smart enough to spell ‘liberal elitist’.

Talk about the inability to understand. The Constitution is written in plain language with clear intent, yet these fools cannot comprehend a single word of it.
its not that we're stupid, its just that we dont speak the language of the stupid
Where is our new favorite troll Sam?
Suaan Cole has her strap-on on and...umm..well you get the picture.
There is nothing to be confused about. It rewards the parts of the health care system that are broken and enlarges them. It weakens some of the parts that were decent.
There is no sunset clause either. It keeps going and growing and does not stop the expenses from piling up.
It is such a messy, and disliked, bill because it is meant to open the door to a single payer system in a few years. Its all about control for the Dems.

He meant '300 million' not 300. He did mean CONTROL as he said it.
The passage of this Bill is a maze to have people wander in and not be able to find their personal freedom once they enter. That is why its so 'complicated' and that is why Americans hate it! We are smart enough to know that is bulls*it!
Where to start? I am educated, and I can read. From what I have learned from reading what I did of the bill, it stinks and has several poison pills. A mandate that everyone breathing buy anything is Unamerican, and immoral. Taxes now for benefits in four years - I can read, this doesn't make sense.
Two - I teach Civics and understand how Congress works, and know a thing or two about the Constitution - this was a railroad job from the get go. This bill has taxes, and fees, and meddles in many areas of regulation. The House cannot increase a tax with a simple majority, they need 2/3rds. That, Gov. Rendell is how it is supposed to work.
Three - Obama's Waterloo the fault of the GOP? Really, he can say this with a straight face? Obama chose this fight, he mismanaged it, and threw the House under the bus to get his signature legislation. And, please, oh please, show me where the Dems taught us all how to support a POTUS they didn't like. As I recall, they spent eight years doing all they could to malign Bush and spin him as the village idiot. Is that the example we should follow? Ok, let's do it.
Well said.
I am sick and tired of being told that I am stupid and Ineed someone to rule over me and make all my decisions for me.
