Rep. Wilson Apologizes to The White House
-By Warner Todd Huston
Dang it. Here I thought we had a new hero on the conservative side. Representative Joe Wilson (R- SC) yelled out “you lie” when the president DID lie during his healthcare speech Wednesday night. Now news has it that Wilson has called the White House to apologize.
Just when I thought we had a Republican with a spine, he whimps out on us.
Obama insisted that “his” plan (which is not his plan at all) would not cover illegal aliens with free healthcare coverage. The problem with Obama’s insistence that illegals aren’t covered, the truth is they are. Many sources have proven that Obamacare does, indeed, cover illegals.
So, when Obama said it didn’t during his address to the joint session, Wilson passionately called out that Obama was a liar.
Wilson was right. Obama was lying.
Too bad Wilson lost his spine after this initial good showing.

It was considered not the time and place.
Politicians dont appreciate having the truth about them spoken mid-speech.
He could have taken the opportunity to press home each and every lie and so have done his country a great service. At the very least he could have apologized for the outburst but stuck to the veracity of his charge. But instead he did what all good republicans do: fail everybody in the name of “civility” and still end up despised and disrespected while a party in power and a president that would cut his throat and watch him bleed goes on lying. Good job.
Yep, just when we though there was a Republican with the intestinal fortitude to stand up and speak the truth, he backpedals. It was a great opportunity to “speak truth to power” and give the Dems the same treatment they gave President Bush. But no, he had to run away with his tail between his legs. He makes us all look spineless.
At the current time we’re already paying for the healthcare of illegal immigrants- this isn’t something that’s GOING to happen, it’s something that’s already happening, and that has been going on for years. So what are you going to do about it? So far, all I hear are complaints; and an idiot congressman shouting at the president during a nationally televised congressional address.
