during President Obama's speech he said "insurance company executives are not bad people, they are watching out for the profit."

tonight hannity said the president called insurance executives bad people, an out and out lie.

... insurance executive ARE pricks ... that's the truth ... they are led by the almighty dollar and could care less about providing what they promised ... they'll pay for abortions and child birth - but won't cover the cost of birth control ... how sick is that?

... they drop insurance on anyone for anything they can as soon as there is a big claim that goes in ... yet, they'll take the monthly insurance premiums for 20 years straight prior to and never ask a question ...

... the executives in some cases are getting multi-million dollar contracts with bonuses based on profit margins ...

... they will lay off 50 staff personnel just to keep ONE executive on the payroll for the board of directors - a person that only has to show up once every other month for a lunch meeting and nothing gets done ...

... collectively, they are scum ...

#2 True, the goverment on the other hand is nothing like them, they only care about us.

The worst part of insurance companies are the people that shill for them, liars, cheats, and thieves.

^2 this view transcends the insurance industry and is characteristic of

most if not all corporate executive behaviors.

I believe in his speech, BO did site the insatiable pull of wall street expectations as a underlying influence.

I had hoped he would come right out and call the GREED for what it is.

i agree with you completely.

but that wasn't my question.

my question is why did hannity lie?

you are so cute.

i've been selling auto insurance for almost 40 years.

i carry what you would call malpractice insurance.

i've never had a claim against anything i did.

i am insuring the children of customers that have been with over 20 years.

^ ... your type of business is virtually gone in todays Democratic Socialist Empire though ...

... gone are the ways of a hand-shake and a good deal ... customer service is a computer or some azzhat in India ...

... they call each other liars because they are and everyone knows it ... if you say it, someone will repeat it, and eventually it will be "known to be true" by several 'sources' ...

... they suspend a NFL player for a domestic disturbance and fine them - but they don't do anything to our media and politicians when they screw up ... get caught having an affair, bribes (think Housing - think Dodd), kick-backs ... payoffs... Kennedy)

- it's rather disgusting if you ask me ...

... we need to start up some lynch mobs ... put these pricks in their place and soon enough - nobody will want their job and we'll be rid of them ...

- too many fat cattle sucking of the teats of society ... it can't last forever ...

Rick,

Why do you care so much when a conservative talk show host lies, but care so little when the POTUS lies?

Actually, let me add "democratic" in front of POTUS.

Your infatuation with Sean Hannity borders on, well, infatuation.

I'd be more shocked when hannity told the truth.... he is a dip **** but very good at what he does

Yo short change:

"i’ve been selling auto insurance for almost 40 years.

i carry what you would call malpractice insurance."

Just the fact that you shill for insurance companies and have to carry your own malpractice insurance says it all.

LMAO!

Rick,

Why post the question, when you know the answer?

(Wait, isn't that what I'm doing?)

Because he can.

I thought I recall reading (or possibly hearing) that the combined hospital and insurance company's profits last year were more than the US Government's defense budget. Anyone else hear something like this?

When the US is a Communist nation there will be no profits Comrade!

are black people allowed to be communists?

Well, Idi Amin Jr. runs around claiming doctors remove body parts soley for profit. Him calling insurance executives bad people isn't that much of a stretch.

Funny, though, he never mentions anything bad about government bureaucrats. Odd.
