Seems like the democrats are not satisfied with Joe Wilson's quick apology to your President and a quick acceptance by the President and his quote, "lets move on." Your favorite lady of the house Nancy Polosi and the dems want Wilson to apologize in front of Congress. If he does not Polosi wants to admonish the fella.

How quickly one side forgets how the other side was treated during their term as President. Yes there were burst of out cry from the Dems while your past President was addressing Congress.

spence · 09-12-2009, 08:42 AM

Not much of an apology was it? I'm sorry about the outburst but I still think you're a liar?

And no, the Dems have never done this. Grumbling or other noises showing discontent is a lllllooooonnnnnggggg way from an accusation of dishonesty.

Wilson embarrassed the entire house with his gaff, but to be honest, Pelosi is just giving him more airtime by stringing things along.

Puh Leeeze. The past 20 years have been showing more and more disrespect by both parties to the office of the president.

It's the same thing over and over, Repubs growl and go all nasty and the Democrats get their panties all in a bunch.

The democrats get the spolied brat militant look and show no respect of the office of President either.

All a bunch of hypocrites.

I'm 40 years old, my windows of following this stuff goes back to the late 80s. How many years has it been like this? Congress may be a true reflection of the people of the United States - One Big Dysfunctional Family.

Was it like this 40 years ago? Sixty?

Joes the only one that didn't lie. I said it in the other thread. His outburst brought on by Obama's chronic white lies will save the US taxpayer billions.

It'd be easier to accept if this was a first occurrence for him. Also, if his apology didn't come across like him mother grabbed him by the ear and made him say he's sorry.

Maybe one day he'll learn what proper etiquette is. Or he'll continue to make himself look like an assclown on live national broadcasts for our amusement. I actually prefer the latter.

Well then, are you saying that the Dems owe an apology to Palin for what they said about her children?

I'm sure that you do not think so.

scottw · 09-12-2009, 11:54 AM

of course not FR...dem politicians may lie, impune and do as they please, they have no shame, conscience, standards or "etiquitte" as JD put it......

remember Obama with the middle finger...that was bad etiquitte...

I remember some remarks made by a "lefty" blog, but nothing by an elected or party official.

Are you saying some independent blog post is equal to an elected representative calling the President a liar in front of the US Congress?

Obama is full of crap! That's why they are working to close the loophole that would allow illegals into his program. When he yelled "You Lie!" he was simply stating a fact... We need more people like him that are not too scared to be a little politically incorrect to tell the truth...
He screamed "the emperor has no clothes" but unfortunately to many of you still see the "imagined clothes". This plan is a huge mistake, and I applaud Wilson for saying what had to be said....

Which members of Congress were talking about Palin's children?

Wasn't talking about a random person affiliated with a political party. Let's not forget that most Republicans were disgusted by his "outburst of emotion".

buckman · 09-13-2009, 04:33 PM

Wilson will win reelection because of his "outburst" Take it for what it's worth but I think the American people appreciate someone who risks their political career to state the truth.

It will help him raise a lot of money from a national audience out to hurt Obama...this doesn't say a whole heck of a lot about his own beliefs.

So just to be clear, the answer to my question is... none. Just trying to stay on point here.

And Wilson is still an assclown.

of course he wouldnt duck, he would expect someone from Govt to step in and save him isnt this how it works??

I hear the republicans want to invite Obama to an open-air, bi-partisan discussion to mend fences at Dealey Plaza this November. They've even picked out a stylish little pink Chanel number with a matching pillbox hat for Michele to wear. They've made assurances that no one will shout him down this time.

buckman · 09-14-2009, 04:10 PM

I'm laughing at the hypocracy of the left on this. Let's see.. they are worried about the respect for the Presidency now? After Clinton played hide the cigar in the Oval office? Reagan, Bush 1 and Bush 2 could not respect the position more. Now we have Obama. Openly blaming Bush for everything that goes wrong. Disrespecting him as a former President every chance he can.
The rest of the Democratic leadership makes me puke. Phony's, every last on of them. And the defenders, excuse makers and supporters....well good luck to them..... They have their own personal issues to sort out.

No kidding. Buckman consistently complains about Obama's spending, while Bush thrust us into 2 wars that will more than likely cost over a trillion dollars each. The same guy that brought us the gem, "No Child Left Behind" and championed for the Patriot Act so that the actions his administration were involved with were only 'sort of' illegal afterward.

Yeah, I can see how you could "not respect the position more."

As an aside, I find it amusing that for someone that has demonstrated himself to be quite financially focused when it comes to policy, you don't like Clinton - considering Bush inherited a hefty, hefty Surplus from him while Reagan, Bush 1 and 2 all left an increase in the deficit.

*cue replies that ignore my point and spin to Obama*

buckman · 09-15-2009, 09:40 AM

JD. We didn't start the war , Remember 9/11. Your a pissa

Bush also inherited a failing ecomomy. Did you forget that also?

scottw · 09-15-2009, 10:07 AM

don't you love how JD and Spence continually impune others for supposedly mindlessly regurgitating talking points when each of their posts is nothing more than one mindless regurgitation of left wing talking points after another.....

Spence's whole act is to sprinkle trigger words like "talking points" and "neocons" into his posts. This, while seeming inoccuous enough puts a negative connotation in a person head. If you were to pay close attention, Spence doesn't come right out and bash people with opposing views. He tries to do it subconsciously.

The funny thing about JD's posts is that in many of them, he shows himself to have conservative views. In others, he comes across as extremely liberal. I've decided to coin a new word to describe JD. He's a "Republiphobic". His deep rooted beliefs are conservative, but he doesn't want to come out and admit that he's a Republican. It's like the guy who makes fun of gays and acts real macho because deep down he has feeling for other men.

Are we going to start this again?

At the time, and even moreso now, there is absolutely no relationship between 9/11 and Iraq (or more specifically, Saddam). Not one.

Also, if Bush was such a great president and ever so wise, if he truly did "inherit a failing economy" then why in the hell would he push through the Bush tax cuts?

Bush's tax cuts + Bush's wars = a failing economy.

Here's the graph again since you seem to continually forget. Unfortunately, it only includes to 2006.
