Matt Welch at Reason Magazine has a pretty devastating takedown of Obama’s healthcare speech, and includes in his write-up the long list of lies our President told in his address to Congress. Consider it a must-read.
Hey, since Rahm Emanuel can get away with demanding an apology from Rep. Joe Wilson, and House Democrats can get away with demanding Wislon apologize on the House floor (Pelosi has called for House Dems to “move on” from the idea of demanding a House floor apology or censure), I demand an apology from every single Democrat lawmaker who has called opponents of ObamaCare every name in the book over the last couple of months. Hey, it’s all in the interest of NuCivility, so why not?
The NYT, the WaPo, the AP – all have lead stories about Congressman Joe Wilson’s “liar” outburst last night during Obama’s speech. Gee, who would have predicted that?
Can’t say I disagree with anything DeMint has suggested in this interview Greta Van Susteren did with him last night. Instead of generalities about the bill and blind attacks at any and all opposition to it, DeMint want’s details from the President and has challenged Obama to point to specific sections of the bill and explain them, and has even offered to go over the bill line by line with him – something Ed Morrissey reminds us that Obama himself said he would do with Congress on the healthcare bill back in July.
