Senator calls Obama a liar during a speech!

[heliochrome85]

I agree. CNBC is a solid spot for news. Fox is fairly worthless. As is the Wall Street Journal, which this week, concluded that Fox was ahead of the game. the NYT is just as bad, as is MSNBC. Unfortunately, i have to go internationally to see real coverage of US news.

there isnt enough ink in washington to print the figures congress has accepted from lobbyists.

Turns out Joe "You Lie!" Wilson meant to say ,"I lie" with regards to his own resume. Trying to make himself out to be some kind of an expert qualified to make his heckle of Obama, he claimed to have the experience of actually having been an immigration lawyer. Not so.

so should i put away all those Joe Wilson for President signs i had made?

[srellim234]

Don't put them away yet if he's running for the nomination as either a Republican or a Democrat.

im just curious if the right is gonna stand up and cheer on the kid who wears the Pot leaf shirt to school. he is speaking his mind isnt he? he is standing up for what he believes in isnt he?

This whole Joe Wilson thing is just another in a long line of right wing martyrs. What he stood for, is a mystery to me. Esp since he was wrong.

In general, both were wrong as the Pres does not have a plan to be called out on in the first place.

What I find interesting about the whole thing is how calling the President a liar is proof of racism, which Joe seems to be accused of.

[heliochrome85]

well, personally campaigning for the flying of the confederate flag is generally frowned upon. Also, being a member of the sons of the confederate veterans is also suspect.

When you call a person a racist in a discussion, you conceded the debate and lost.

I don't get it, is the Representative saying that Democrats will be riding through the country side with their hoods on terrorizing people? Figures..

That means Glenn Beck, Rush Limbaugh, etc., etc. etc. conceded the debate and lost. Will someone from the right and up in the Republican Party tell them to SHUT UP???

Whoever that goofball is needs to pull his head out of his a**. Wilson called Barry a liar because he is a liar. Not because he is a black liar. This racecard s*** is long past tired and I refuse to treat it like a get out of discussion card.

[Cold_Zero]

Then they lost. What debate where they talking using this defense? To be honest, I have been working 70-80hrs a week at work and it has been a long time since I have listened to any of those guys. I prefer Bill Bennett, and get to listen to his show on the drive into work.

Rep. Joe Wilson, R-S.C shouts out " YOU LIE!" to Obama after he talks about illegal immigrants. Although, it says he called to apologize later on, I think this just goes to show that people are losing respect for Obama and what he stnds for.

Here is how it probably happened

We all know Obama was not technically lying as his intention is to make all illegals "legal"......
