Reality is, after all, a liberal's worst enemy.

Maybe my old girlfriend was right, they do have cameras and mics in our TV's and Wilson was tuned in.

Sorry, but the MSM is irrelevant now to a large portion of America. They had their chance to do their job before the election. The world is changing but not the way they think.

Thanks to him, they can blab about rudeness all day, and completely ignore ACORN workers breaking the law while Obama makes up lies in his speech.

Now it can be told!  I was to blame.  I listened to Obama's spinning and when he started on the illegal aliens, I said to my husband, "He's lying."  Mere seconds later, my newest hero,, Joe Wilson voiced my comment from his seat in Washington.  I never knew that I had such power.  Actually, I think it was the combined power of all of us who watched the dog and pony show -  muttering the same words at Obama's blatant lies to the American public.  He changed a few words to protect himself but told one whopper after another.  I know we all are to blame for sending our thoughts to Washington and Wilson's being the only one sensitive enough to voice them.  Good for you, Joe. 

Why haven't the Republicans replied that Joe was caught up in the innacuracies of Obama's comments and just expressed his love of the truth.  Steele has to learn to work it.  Make lemonade.  The situation literally cut Obama at the knees and ruined his preaching.  Whatever he said later was under the "you lie" umbrella.  Joe should be applauded.  

Anyone who complains should be made to watch the times Bush was booed for telling the truth at these sessions.  

didn't slow them down one bit.   They are just as shamelessly coordinating their White House coverage with the White House as if they think no one notices.   I especially got a kick out of CBS highlighting the look on Nancy Pelosi's face when she heard the comment.   It was funny because Nancy herself has a little history of calling people liars now doesn't she...?   I could be mistaken but didn't the President himself also accuse people of telling lies too?    I guess the goose/gander principle does not apply to Democrats.

" if Republicans are able to stop Barack Obama on health care, 'it will be his Waterloo, it will break him...."  -Sen. Jim DeMint

Ever notice how the "debate" only turns "nasty" or "ugly" when republicans go on the offensive.

 Just once, I would love to hear the "unbiased" msm charge a dem with scare tactics...

 not holding my breath!

Joe Wilson is a coward who, while the entire world was watching, APPOLOGIZED today.  If he had any integrity, he would've stood up last night and said more than "liar".  He would have stepped before the cameras today and said "The president lied to us last night."  Instead, he wilted like a flower "Oh, I'm so sorry..."  We don't need more people like Joe Wilson, we need people who have the integrity to stand by their words and call out this president as the liar he is, not some high-school heckler who shouts out things from the security of a crowd.

it is the only way to explain their willing blindness to this Liar in chief!

The American people seem to be waking up? But we need more Wilson's to help the process along.

We are not really focussed on the person who shouted out "LIE" , we are now focussing on the LIES and the LIAR!

Thank you Mr Wilson

sounds familiar) shouted "The Emperor wears no clothes" and he is right.  Long live (this) Joe Wilson!  Jim Webster

Funny how they ignore the point where just mere seconds earlier Obama accused Palin, Republicans AND the media of lying.

OBAMA:Some of people’s concerns have grown out of bogus claims spread by those whose only agenda is to kill reform at any cost. The best example is the claim made not just by radio and cable talk show hosts, but by prominent politicians, that we plan to set up panels of bureaucrats with the power to kill off senior citizens. Now, such a charge would be laughable if it weren’t so cynical and irresponsible. It is a lie, plain and simple.

There are also those who claim that our reform efforts would insure illegal immigrants. This, too, is false. The reforms — the reforms I’m proposing would not apply to those who are here illegally.

WILSON: You lie! 

It was a friggin REBUTTAL to Obama calling them liars! 

Who was being rude?  The man who called out the untruths, mistatements, and material misreprentations  OR the man who described the opponents of his proposals and salesmanship as WILD CLAIMS and LYING in a not so subtle swipe at REPUBLICANs.

We spend one-and-a-half times more per person on health care than any other country, but we aren't any healthier for it. This is one of the reasons that insurance premiums have gone up three
times faster than wages. It's why so many employers — especially small
businesses — are forcing their employees to pay more for insurance, or
are dropping their coverage entirely.

A falsehood combined with a fact, we as a whole are healthier by the fact based on the stats that under the dismal cancer survival rates in Canada and England under government health care over 300,000 women would be dead under their regime of medicine, from breast cancer alone over 10 years OR 30,000 a year! Can you imagine all the other people who would needlessly die from all cancers????  Being DEAD is NOT healthier!!!! Well duh, it costs money for cancer treatments which the Canadians and British saved through rationing by delaying or denying treatment. The second falsehood combined with fact is we are paying more in insurance because we spend more - A HALF TRUTH! we are paying more because Government programs like Medicare, Medicaid under pay their bills and illegals don't pay their bills, WE THE PEOPLE are forced to pay MORE due to cost shifting.

I have to say that there are arguments to be made for both approaches.
But either one would represent a radical shift that would disrupt the
health care most people currently have.

Another false moral equivalence argument - the solution of the right is too REFORM not CHANGE the system that works for 95% of the population.  The solution of the left is to CHANGE the system for the 5% of which most are NOT CITIZENS, NOT REFORM it.

that we plan to set up panels of bureaucrats with the power to kill off
senior citizens. Such a charge would be laughable if it weren't so
cynical and irresponsible. It is a lie, plain and simple.

So who lied here?  Why that was Barack Obama.  Whether by design or incompetence, the end result of the panels legislated under HR3200 IS to make the same decisions as in England, delay and denial of treatment based on life expectancy.

The only thing this plan would eliminate is the hundreds of billions of
dollars in waste and fraud, as well as unwarranted subsidies in
Medicare that go to insurance companies — subsidies that do everything
to pad their profits and nothing to improve your care.

An outright falsehood. Since plans like AARP United Health Care give more coverage to seniors than Medicare are the ones he wants to eliminate.

There are so many falsehoods uttered in Obama's speech it would take a missive to identify them all so I only selected the bigger whoppers.  There can be only two conclusions to be drawn here:  Either Barack Obama is a hopeless liberal demagogue unable to see past his partisan politics and narrow world view OR he is deliberately lying to the American People to enact a socialist agenda.  Congressman Wilson concluded the later.

Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid, starving the poor one gallon of ethanol at a time. Fill your tank with E85 and cull a village.

             And yet, the people gave him a standing ovation.            They should hear what I shout. It isn't pretty. I think the congress should be put in Gitmo, untill we can decide whether they are guilty of treason, through corruption. Then we hang every one of them.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                               

So let me get this straight. You can keep the insurance you have? Sure!! Every company in America will drop their employee benefits to the bare minimum required by BO. This creates wind fall profit for corporations as they make employees pay more for the coverage they have. Forcing them into the gov't plan...which is cheaper and will never be as good.

Coming to a hospital near you! Foreign doctors with substandard "degrees" will "help" offset the volume of 45 Million people.

Sure you can keep your insurance...if you can afford it.

Lets help the 10 Million or so that really need it.

BO is like a kid with a credit card.

all, why should they even MENTION the ACORN scandal where employees are helping a prostitute set up a scam business, give advice on how to avoid the IRS and how to protect underage foreigners they were bringing in for working in the sex trade!!!!

Gotta get their priorities in order, yaknow!!!
