To be sure, he should not have jumped up and shouted during the President’s speech – that is the sort of rude tactic our leftwingers use. It is right and proper that he has apologized for his action – but by very rude means, all Wilson did was tell the truth – Obama is lying through his teeth about what his health care plan will do.
It is the height of absurdity to claim that a bill which has no bar to illegals won’t cover illegals. It is equally absurd to propose covering more people, more of the time, for more things and say this will reduce the costs of health care. The final absurdity if Obama’s assertions that he’s willing to work with Republicans – we’ve been shut out of the debate, especially in the House.
In this supreme act of rudeness, we might find the final awakening of the American people – in the end, after all, just what were we GOPers doing in Congress last night? We were merely a prop – something to allow Obama to look more impressive as he peddled his falsehoods about health care. Wilson should not have jumped up, but Wilson should not have been there – no Republican should have. This wasn’t a speech of grave national importance where all Americans must pay heed…this was just a campaign event by a politician who is down in the polls and looking for a means to reshape the debate in his favor.
Ultimately, the worst thing which happened last night was a cheapening of the Presidency and the august event known as a Joint Session of Congress…Wilson’s rudeness just capped the whole affair.

So how about if we insist that the government prove that they can run those programs efficiently before subjecting the rest of us to it? Otherwise, aren’t we just shifting 1/6 of the economy from one inefficient bureaucracy to another? Doesn’t make a lot of sense.
cluster: Let’s bend the cost curve down by enacting serious tort reform, and lessening government regulations allowing insurance companies to cross state lines, and offer cafeteria options. If that doesn’t work then we can take the next step.
The problem with that logic is that there is already enough evidence to indicate with considerable confidence that those steps won’t work. The possible exceptions are (1) the crossing state lines thing. But even there there is no evidence that the largest, most populous states (which should be able to benefit from economy of scale) are any better off. Consequently, there is every indication that a more fundamental solution is required. And, (2) the cafeteria option thing. The problem there is, what happens if the cafeteria goes belly-up? The long and the short of it is… cafeteria options might help, but they are not a complete solution in themselves — unless of course your position is that those who made poor decisions should die.
And there is ZERO evidence the government can efficiently run a public option.
So your point was????

Looks like a Mr. Howe needs our prayers.
I can tell him that God does not hear a sinners prayer. The only prayer that God hears from a sinner, is a prayer of repentance. And only one real intercessory prayer…that being directly to Jesus Christ.
So let’s pray that God will help to convict Mr. Howe of his evil desires.
Sounds like ol’ Henry has a pretty good grasp of Liberal talking points, though he has done a little elaboration by adding in “inbred” and “scummy”, but his desire to use the Patriot Act to get rid of us all seems pretty much in line with Janet’s memos.
Just think of how Henry would have reacted if, for example, Joe and a bunch of his buddies had worn insulting T-shirts under their suit coats and exposed them, along with a big prepared banner, and shouted that Obama was a MURDERER!!!! as he addressed Congress. Why, I bet the spittle would still be flying as he incoherently searched for even more creative ways to express himself.
But tell me, how does a comment that the Pres was lying about an aspect of his beloved bill make the commenter a racist? I missed that part. I’ve rearranged the words YOU LIE in as many ways as I can, and haven’t been able to get anything even remotely race-related.
“By the way, who would determine what is nuisance?”
On this blog it is really easy.
Take a bow, cam.
As for all the defenses of various government programs, I say, when Congress and the Pres and all union folks have to endure the same system they want to foist off on us, I’ll take another look at it. This “It’s fine for the common folk but us special elite types deserve something better” jes’ don’t fly with me…………..
