Joe Wilson A Darling Of The Health Industry

Raw Story:

During President Obama's address on health insurance reform to a joint session of Congress last night, he observed that some people have been spreading bad information about his proposal -- and that contrary to what's been said it would not cover illegal immigrants.

It would be socialistic to not allow politicians to be bought....­America - Buy it or Shut the F - up.

Well OF COURSE Joe Wilson accepted money from the health care industry! He's certainly NOT for the American people, that's obvious. The best we can hope for is that he will not get voted back into office.
And if the GOP wants any chance at all of putting themselves in a better light, and if they have any smarts at all, they would be running just as hard and fast as they could from Wilson, Limbaugh, Palin, Beck and all the rest of the crazies. But they won't. And that will be the biggest favor of all they could do for the Dems!
So, Mr. Joe Wilson, you just stay right in there and be your obnoxious, rude self and see how that works out for you.

The controversial congressman has been a member of Sons of Confederate Veterans. Max Blumenthal, author of the just-published Republican Gomorrah, asks: Did he remain so even after it became a hate group?

Here's a theory. What if this whole canard about "non-citizen" may or could receive healthcare is just a business rouse. What if the problem is the POTUS and members of the Democratic Party will not allow for an amendment that allows for the creation of an industry/businesses that create "national health care ID." To hide its real intent (creating a business), used the old staple of "illegal" citizens accessing/taking advantage of American borders. But if the theory is correct that the current administration is not allowing the American public cofferes to be fleeced through new legislation, it would explain why members of the Conservative business side of the Republican Party (FoxNews Corp., Freedom Works, United Health Group, and etc) have spent massive funds in telling folks that the government is massively spending their money or programs.

I am very glad that I am NOT Joe Wilson's mother.
My head would be hung in shame over the MOST DISRESPECTFUL and SHAMEFUL CONDUCT ever exhibited by a member of Congress on the floors of Congress to the President of the United States.

I would make very sure that when he came home his father would take him to the woodshed and whip (yes whip) some sense into him and teach him to keep his mouth SHUT unless he can speak to other people with decency AND at the appropriate time.

If anyone from CNN or MSNBC is reading this here is what I would like to see when the Health Care Bill is actually debated.
Carry the debate live and when each speaker stands in the well put the amount of money they have received from the health care industry in a box on their chest. Also, list relevant votes that they have taken in the past on health care issues.
Why is it that we get more information about a batter up to bat than a congress person speaking on important issues?

Now there's an idea! Tell Rachel Maddow, she'll do it!

Leadership Sorry won't cut it!

Joe Biden stated Wilson 'demeaned the institution'

Just like the GOP/Murdoch is doing now to the Office of the President.

Destroy our country and they think an apology is all that is required?

Global Mass Destruction and they think an apology is all that is required!

Think Again!

The WORLD BLAMES you - GOP!

THE WORLD!

Leadership Sorry won't cut it!

[Grannysue]

When the insurance company is funneling money into your bank account and you've sold your sole to them of course your going to screw over the public, that's what all good little GOPERS do.

[wayne64]

wondrer how many of us would do the same thing.
