Obama Ad Nauseam

Mendacity and arrogance, Obama's core traits on full display tonight, and so far defining his Presidency, presented the audience with the one authentic moment when a Republican Congressman and patriot could take no more and called Obama on the carpet to borrow an Al Franken phrase as the "lying liar" that he is. Representative Joe Wilson called a spade a spade and blurted out "liar" to a President who had just taken the extraordinary and unprecedented step of calling his domestic opponents lying fear mongers in a joint session of Congress generally reserved for State of the Union addresses, matters of war, and visits of allied heads of state at crucial times (i.e. Churchill and Thatcher). So Obama can mischaracterize honest dissent as distortion and only one person in the chamber has the balls to violate arcane protocol and give voice to the displeased masses, who feel (rightly) that their liberty is threatened by the health care scheme and Obama. This is no time for Robert's Rules of Order when a substantial number of people see their suffrage and patrimony being stolen. Better to solve the problem today with words than tomorrow with bullets.
