Promoted by Jeff You knew someone was going to find it. The folks over at Mere Rhetoric have : Now, I was no fan of President Bush’s plan to privatize Social Security (mostly because there was no “opt-out entirely” provision). However, while liberals claim that Joe Wilson’s shout during Tuesday’s speech was “unprecedented” and “racist,” we can see the Democrats were just as capable of such behavior....

Today Congressional Democrats took the day off from the problems facing our country to engage in politics. They spent the day debating how to slap congressman Joe Wilson for shouting "you lie" at the POTUS, a charge that was true but the timing and venue was inappropriate. Wilson had already apologized to the President, but the Democrats wanted Wilson to apologize to the entire congress on the house...

House Democrats are planning to censure Joe Wilson for “breach of decorum” for yelling “you lie!” during Obama’s address to a joint session of Congress. We all know how deeply devoted to decorum our Democrat representatives were back in 2005, when Bush addressed Congress on the issue of Social Security reform and they booed: Perhaps [...]

As I write this, the resolution expressing disapproval of Rep. Joe Wilson's outburst is being put up for a vote on the House floor. The voting is still going on, but the resolution has enough votes to pass. Before the resolution was put up for a vote, the Republicans all came to the defense of Wilson. You can read the resolution here . One of the defenses given is that, in 2005, Democrats booed President...

Rep. Joe Wilson apologized for calling President Obama a liar. It's a shame he had too. Here was a man emotionally invested in our country who had the guts and the passion to tell the President that he just spoke a lie. I don't know about you, but to me - wow, it felt so good and so right. U.S. Representative Joe Wilson is America's greatest living statesman at this moment. I encourage others in the...

People are all a twitter because Joe Wilson yelled out *You Lie* last night when Obama said illegal immigrants would not be covered under his plan. But, in the very same speech, just seconds prior, Obama accuses Sarah Palin and other Republicans (and the media) of LYING. However, they have since removed the provision that Palin was [...]

The moment in time was Nanna Pelosi's face during the "outbreak". It is TIME for the Repubs and other Patriots in the House to SPEAK OUT when it is time. Michele Malkin has the column correct. The "outburst" was AOK to me. Remember when President Bush was assaulted in 2005? Who will fix social security? Congress? When did social security become constitutional? No, Joe Wilson did just fine. Remember,...
