Democrats Heckled by the Truth

So they want to formally punish Rep Joe Wilson for daring to shout the truth...

Ever notice how after the left screams through their state-controlled media bullhorns that conservatives are all stoopid doody-head liars, they then are forced to address the "lie."

If Sarah Palin was so stupid and uniformed about her imaginary "death panels," then why did they amend the bill after her comments?

You Lie!
The latest correction concerns Congressman Wilson shouting "you lie!" during the president's partisan political harangue to the nation. If anyone broke decorum, it was the president, who treated that august occasion as a campaign stop to fire up the nutroots.

First, an interesting dollop of pro-Obama propaganda from the Toilet Paper of Record:

...but based on the proposals so far, Mr. Obama’s overarching point is accurate: the legislation would not allow illegal immigrants to get the proposed government subsidies that would make it easier for low-income individuals and families to afford health insurance.

Ramesh Ponnuru quickly shoots that one down:

Here's the entirety of PolitiFact's discussion of this issue, in a fairly long piece about Wilson vs. Obama: "The bill specifically says that people in the United States illegally are not eligible for tax credits, on page 132, section 242."

So what? The law "says" that people aren't supposed to be here illegally in the first place, after all.

Great point. Congress has passed immigration laws, but 20 million illegal immigrants living and working here pretty much make a mockery that, don't they? So we find out the Democrats really are lying, and Congressman Wilson was right:

Many Democrats fear that verification procedures keep legal residents from getting insurance, and in the House, they rejected Republican attempts to add verification requirements to the House health care bill.

Now comes Propaganda Minister Gibbs to clarify:

The White House press secretary, Robert Gibbs, said Thursday that Mr. Obama would go further, barring illegal immigrants from buying private health insurance through a proposed government-regulated marketplace, even if they could afford the coverage on their own.

If Congressman Wilson lied, why are they correcting what he lied about?

So, Obama and the Pelosicrats will bar illegals from buying health insurance? Just like we bar them from illegally entering the country?

US House of (mis)Representatives

US Capitol: A House of Lies

Jack "Hog Snout" Murtha lied when he said those Marines were guilty.

Barney Frank and Chris Dodd lied when they denied their misguided policies had anything to do with the housing crisis.

They lie every time they authorize another program we can't pay for, driving us deeper in debt.

The President repeated Democratic lies last night about health care: It requires an imaginative flight of fancy to believe they will cover everybody for every condition and save money.

Is it any wonder one brave man stood up and finally told the truth? The logical inconsistencies strain credulity. They sit on a mountain of trillions of dollars of debt and ask us to believe them.

Want to earn back some trust? Easy. Refute Representative Joe Wilson's "liar" charge.

Explain how this program will reject an illegal alien who shows up at an emergency room with a sick kid. Go ahead, I'd love to hear how suddenly these millions will be magically shut out of all US health care. You can't even protect the borders!

Secondly, Mr. President. You say you can save $500 billion by cutting waste and inefficiency? OK. Do it now and accumulate the money in a lock box. When you get to your magical $500 billion come back and see us about approving your health care plan.

Nuh uh... Not anymore. We The People don't trust you!

It doesn't take an accountant with a calculator to see that this doesn't add up. Maybe if our government had a record of fiscal responsibility, we wouldn't be so skeptical.

Washington couldn't make a profit selling cocaine in Hollywood. They'd go broke selling booze to millionaire alcoholics. And they want us to trust them on health care?

Yeah right. Joe Wilson broke protocol by telling the truth.
