Almost immediately, leading Democrats and RINOs denounced Wilson and demanded that he apologize to the President. Jimmy Carter even went so far to proclaim Joe Wilson a racist, joined of course by Maureen Dowd and Bill Cosby.
But now here we are, five years down the road, and we are fully cognizant that Joe Wilson was 100% correct. Barack Obama was lying during his speech to this joint session of Congress, and he continues to lie even now. Writer Brian Hayes tells us, “The Covered California website includes a special page entitled, in Spanish, ‘Fear not if you are undocumented and want to enroll your family in health insurance.’ The website goes on to assure illegal aliens that the information shared with Obama Care cannot be provided to Immigration and Customs Enforcement authorities. It does not explicitly warn that illegal aliens are ineligible.”
So guess what? Joe Wilson was correct; President Barack Obama is a liar —and no, you cannot keep your doctor if you like your doctor. We are wondering, though, where is the Democrats’ apology to Joe Wilson? Why isn’t the free press helping to expose this fraud perpetrated against the American taxpayer?
Okay, just kidding. We know why.

True or False: Obama "Would Be Impeached If He Weren't America's First Black President"
Okay, okay. I know that Ann Coulter isn't a favorite of many people. But is she correct in her assertion?
BTW, I hope that a few here will watch the video that I posted today. The alarm is being sounded. Is America listening?
He's a lawyer.
His lips are moving.
How much more evidence do you need?
I was proud of Wilson that night.
Why isn’t the free press helping to expose this fraud perpetrated against the American taxpayer?
Because the only frauds here are Brian Hayes and Robert Elliot. Undocumented workers are still ineligible for insurance on the exchange. "Fear not" refers to those who are afraid any information about an applicants family would be used by ICE.
Under the law, undocumented immigrants can’t get coverage. It also requires that those seeking coverage state their immigration status and provide information about members of their household to determine eligibility.
In October, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, a division of the Department of Homeland Security, said in a memo that it “does not use information about such individuals or members of their household that is obtained for purposes of determining eligibility for such coverage as the basis for pursuing civil immigration enforcement action.”
A link reading “Don’t fear if you are undocumented” on Covered California’s Spanish-language website connects to a page that explains this policy and connects to the memo.

This doesn't let Joe Wilson off the hook. It doesn't let those who take these misleading articles at face value off the hook, either.
With Clinton guard dogs waving "Move on" nothing to see here,
Hillary Clinton's files are excavated.
This could be the start of something big.
An extensive collection of papers related to Bill and Hillary Clinton’s years in the Arkansas governor’s mansion remains under tight control at a public library in Little Rock, with access restricted by the Clinton Foundation. President Bill Clinton donated his papers from his tenure as Arkansas governor to the Central Arkansas Library System (CALS) in 2003, and they are housed at the Butler Center for Arkansas Studies in Little Rock. The documents could provide new insight into the early chapter of the Clintons’ political careers, as reporters take a second look at Hillary Clinton’s past
It is amazing how protected Hilbill are by the "watchdogs" of society. With all of the disclosures and lack of privacy, only the privileged can do their dirty deeds in the dark and expect no one will see or care.
The voters in the US used to make good decisions. Now they vote their own pocketbook every time and the dims control the giveaways.
Goodbye America - it was great while it lasted.
Hillary Clinton should be president of her own fan club, maybe that will satisfy her megalomania without blowing up the earth, or setting America back to the stone age..
Obama announces new program to help poor young NON-WHITES........... "And so it goes."
The war on white people continues.. Make no mistake. Obozo hates whites and he's no longer shy about saying it.
Welcome to the New Jim Crow North!
If Shaw Keewee said so...then who are we to argue!
A California state lawmaker plans to introduce legislation that would allow undocumented immigrants to have access to government health insurance plans.
No, you're incorrect in saying Obama lied when he said illegal immigrants were covered by Obamacare. They are not. One California lawmaker is PLANNING on introducing NOW. That doesn't mean it will happen.
So "Fear not if you're undocumented and want your family to enroll in health insurance" doesn't encourage undocumented persons (a euphemism for illegal alien) to register for government subsidized health care programs?
I see.
If anyone needs health care, particularly mental health care, it has to be Craig and his leftist playmates.
Obama is not a liar you racist’s and haters! Obama told the truth! It is the insurance companies that were forced to drop coverage because of Obamacare that are at fault for not providing lactating coverage to men which is a form of profiling!
Sam, Please read it carefully. No one who isn't eligible can get it. If a family member is undocumented, they can't get it. The ICE memo says they won't use the ACA registration information as a tool to deport someone.
They still have to prove eligibility under the law. "Illegals" are not eligible. It's very simple. Mustang's source is lying or can't read.
What President Obama’s Wealth platform should include.
No person would be allowed to accumulate a personal net worth of more than 300 times the average family fortune, which would limit personal assets to between $5 million and $8 million. A graduated capital levy tax would be assessed on all persons with a net worth exceeding $1 million.
Annual incomes would be limited to $1 million and inheritances would be capped at $5 million.
Every family was to be furnished with a homestead allowance of not less than one-third the average family wealth of the country. Every family was to be guaranteed an annual family income of at least $2,000 to $2,500, or not less than one-third of the average annual family income in the United States. Yearly income, however, cannot exceed more than 300 times the size of the average family income.
An old-age pension would be made available for all persons over 60.
To balance agricultural production, the government would preserve/store surplus goods, abolishing the practice of destroying surplus food and other necessities due to lack of purchasing power.
Veterans would be paid what they were owed (a pension and healthcare benefits from them and their entire family).
Free education and training for all students, no matter what their color or race, or religion may be, or where that originally came from to have equal opportunities in all schools, colleges, universities, and other institutions for training in the professions and vocations of life. And that goes for people of any lifestyle.
I wonder where the country would have been without Mr. Obama!
AOW:
"I know that Ann Coulter isn't a favorite of many people."...
I think we're damn fortunate to have her on our side friends. Since Andrew Breitbarts passing...there's not one person in the media today who has the balls of Andrew, save for Coulter. See what kind of a disgusting country we've devolved into...when a woman like Coulter, Ivy League as she is, NY cocktail crowd as she is, lawyer that she is...stands up for the constitution and takes no guff from the filth that is the Left. Who are responsible for the destruction of and the downfall of this country. And she...is all we have left to counter the evil of the insane drift towards the complete balkanization of this country? Well...it's certainly not O'Reilly, Colmes, Hannity or even Limbaugh who's willing to walk the walk, is it? No...It's the Juan Williams, the mealy mouth faux black PR who's doing the talking points, right?
And there's not one damn thing we can do about it...NOT ONE THING...see...it's not about the country "going down", the country as we know it is down...and forever done, gone, over with....and PC...and diversity BS...are the poison that has killed us.
And so long as the traitors in DC are on the side of the..."children", the illegals, the criminal and above all the restless racism in blacks...we cannot win...by conventional means. Translation: Your "vote" is a joke...a meaningless exercise in futility.
Furthermore, I'll take a beautiful blonde, green eyed "barbie" over the evil snark, ugliness and hateful harpy that is our current FLOTUS and any BBA that needs a $12,000 tent to mask her ugliness.
And one who's college thesis while at a prestigious Eastern University known as Princeton ( with a purely undeserved admission if not for AA ) complained about how much she hated America. That's what we now have at the helm of this country and it's maniacal, racist "leader" with his army of criminal white hating racists. Especially noted...the one who is the AG.
Want some proof? Here is the "president" of the crap hole, narco, drug cartel administrator of mexico...at a SOTU address...telling US...what we have to do...to appease his criminal citizens in our country.

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies.
The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
They may be more likely to go to Heaven yet at the same time likelier to make a Hell of earth. This very kindness stings with intolerable insult. To be "cured" against one's will and cured of states which we may not regard as disease is to be put on a level of those who have not yet reached the age of reason or those who never will; to be classed with infants, imbeciles, and domestic animals.
The ever-quotable CS Lewis.
You’ll have to forgive me, as I was raised in a society that taught its young people that words have meaning. So what you people on the left are saying, essentially, is that Fear not if you are undocumented and want to enroll your family in health insurance doesn’t actually mean “go ahead and sign up, even if you are undocumented.”
Do I understand this correctly?
So then the next question should be, what is the point of undocumented aliens signing up for Obama Care if they aren’t eligible for Obama Care?
Craig, I signed up for ObamaCare in my state of Nevada, one of only two states where a GOP Governor helped build a state exchange.
In order to complete my application, I had to provide either a birth certificate, a valid US Passport, or proof of legal immigration status for both my wife and I.
Until I provided those, my application was held in suspense, uncompleted.
With the benefit of actually using the system as evidence, I fail to see how people here without papers could get coverage.
This is a classic example of people asking for proof that something is not going to happen. There is no objective way to satisfy those types of demand.
And now, if you'll excuse me, I've got to schedule my wife's long neglected knee surgery so she can walk without pain again since now she cannot be denied coverage for a preexisting condition.
More rants about what the press isn't reporting.
However, the example given is very poor reporting designed to get the fringe right stirred up and work the bigotry.
Has the so called "liberal media" (LMAO) reported on the demonstrations in North Carolina and other parts of the South in response to right wing state government?
Of course not.
I'll ask Jack Whyte if this story might refer to situations where a child is a citizen and qualifies for health insurance. Now, I'm sure your reaction is, "screw the kid" but it is quite a different story.
So you can either choose good reporting or (m)Ann Coulter.
@ AOW
The law, written by lawyers, is always sufficiently vague to allow a lawyer to drive a semi-truck and trailer through ambiguous laws. And so it is with the constitution. First, the Constitution doesn’t actually mean what you or I think it means. It only means what the Supreme Court thinks that it means. Thus, even the light headed leftist can understand why presidential elections are so important: they get to select judges for the Supreme Court —hopefully those who support the president more than they do the Constitution.
Next, we have to understand that one of the gaping loopholes is presidential latitude in enforcing the law. We have seen Obama ignore some laws with some frequency, and prosecute others with solemnity and urgency —such as openly queer generals in the military, refusing to prosecute government officials for the death of Officer Brian Terry, refusal to hold anyone accountable for the debacle that was Benghazi, and refusing to bring Lois Lerner and others to justice for violating federal laws vis-à-vis political discrimination. Now in state courts, these examples would constitute prosecutorial misconduct, but such terms do not apply to the King of America and his ass kissing acolytes. And besides, since the president has “great latitude” in deciding which laws to vigorously enforce, the Supreme Court under the traitor John Roberts would back Obama up.
I think Ann Coulter is correct about impeachment, but you and I both know that hell would freeze over before the senate would ever convict Barack Obama. The fact that Obama knows this, that the communist majority in the US Senate knows this, is what has produced Obama’s arrogance. And you, young lady, had better button up your lip if you know what’s good for you.
Wow Dave Miller. So you actually allowed your wife to suffer with knee pain because you wanted other people to pay for her surgery? You are one heck of a husband. I imagine you must be proud of yourself allowing the woman you love to suffer so much. Or … is it that your wife is an illegal alien just now being able to get something for nothing?
@Sam:
Definition of a progressive:
remove all reason and accountability.
Sam,
I do realize that the Senate would not convict -- just as I realize that oft-touted "We're going to repeal ObamaCare" is a non-starter. Right after the 2010 mid-term elections, I heard the latter over and over again. Hasn't happened, has it?
Won't happen, IMO.
I believe that the GOP (and others) are self-muzzled to a certain extent because of the current penchant for calling any opposition to any of Obama's policies as racist.
PS: I don't see myself buttoning my lip anytime soon.
@Sam --- ...they get to select judges for the Supreme Court —hopefully those who support the president more than they do the Constitution.
----
In other words, forget SCOTUS as the arbiter of what the Constitution "means". if they agree with Sam they "support the Constitution". Otherwise, they are traitors or just what exactly?
In Sam's case the osmosis process of sleeping with a copies of Atlas Shrugged and The Road to Serfdom (a book he wrote to try to recover from his policy failures) is the needed mandate to turn us into patriotic Americans.
No Sam, Dave didn't wait until "someone else would pay for it".
He had to wait until he could qualify for coverage you dim bulb.
You are so wretched stewing in your envy.
Well garsh, Ducky ... I didn't know you were Dave's attorney. You see, I was talking to Dave.
And you know what, Ducky, I wouldn't go around calling anyone a dim bulb given your poorly demonstrated understanding of much of anything you pontificate about ad nauseam.
I wonder why the American left closely resembles the adults in South Park.
Cartman
No Sam, it isn't like that at all... my wife, because she had some issues 25 years ago has been consistently denied medical insurance since that time.
Because of the reality of her past problems, we could not afford to purchase any type of medical insurance that would make her surgery possible.
Her surgery, to repair torn knee ligaments, is viewed as elective.
We also do not make enough to personally fund the surgery and pay for her required medicines to keep her alive.
All I ever asked for was an opportunity to purchase medical insurance at a reasonable price and not be denied coverage because of a previous condition.
We're not getting anything for nothing [as evidenced by the $500.00 a month fees] and your attitude clearly explains, and demonstrates why conservatives, and the GOP, are having a hard time winning national elections. It shows a clear lack of compassion and an unwillingness to even consider the position of others.
I attacked no one in my comments, but in your response, you took aim directly at me, my wife and people here without papers, or, if you prefer, illegally.
This is exactly what many in the GOP, including GOP Chairman Preibus, Rand Paul and Bobby Jindal have said conservatives and the party must end if it wants to appeal to the larger electorate.
We celebrate a momentous day today with the five year anniversary of the signing of the Obama stimulus bill. Since that time we have seen millions of shovel ready jobs, unemployment return to under 5% and Solyndra lead the way to a whole new industry in solar energy and pay the taxpayer back every dime it borrowed. We have also seen the huge growth in the middle class and taxes only increase for the wealthy.
All those things did happen and if you don't believe it you just don't like the fact that we have a lying black man for president.
While millions are being slaughtered in Syria, the line in the sand president is scolding Uganda about their anti gay stand.
What a leader
Dave,
You are right and the preexisting coverage should have been enacted years ago. I do not like much about obamacare but will agree some changes should have been made and that is one of them.
Poll shocker: Chris Christie takes 1 point lead over LAIR Hillary Clinton.
New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie leads former Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton, 43 percent to 42 percent, in a new poll on the hypothetical 2016 presidential match-up
Both Benghazi and Obamacare will destroy her chances so badly that she will retire from politics instead of run for office..
My conclusion based on his video taped speeches is that he is a liar... But a smart liar. He knows if he controls your health, he owns you...as well as the continuation of the progressive agenda.
Thanks for your response, Dave. You know, I am fully aware of how painful torn knee ligaments are, which is why I was completely astounded by the fact that you would rather let your wife suffer from excruciating pain, rather than to do whatever it takes to get her taken care of. I’m sure this is a principle difference between the Marxist left and the conservative right. By the way, I know several orthopedic surgeons willing to work with patients by setting up payment schedules. And of course, I’m very sorry I made you cry.
Germany, 1930's.
@AOW. Impeached? I'm not so sure. I've considered the idea/theory, that politicians have kicked the can so far down the road, it is now unrecoverable. A hot potato that no one wants to be associated with. But the idea they won't do it because he 'can be associated with' blacks would also be enough to keep the teflon intact.
The dems figure (probably rightly) that they can blame everything on the right so they're willing to hold the reins while they steal everything including the sink. The repubs have never been able to make the evil stick on the dems and so don't want to preside over the implosion, happy to reap whatever spoils they can as well.
They all win, we lose.
@Ed, I'll never believe obama passed the bar on his own. I'll never believe he was a professional anything. Simply a point man to run money for the mob in Chicago, and now all over the place.
@SAM, "Wow Dave Miller. So you actually allowed your wife to suffer with knee pain because you wanted other people to pay for her surgery?"
Beautiful.
@Dave Miller. You're FOS. You need something you get it done. Conservatives ALWAYS find a way to get it done. You pathetic whiner.
I can only hope your identity and bank account are stolen on that POS Billion dollar website delivered 75% incomplete and 25% Defective by michele obama's friend.
Libtards are a Fascinating species aren't they.
Skudrunner. The real unemployment number is 58%. Imagine. 58%
And that's as reported by CNN!
Sam, I guess we could have discontinued her meds so we could afford surgery. I could have gone on food stamps too, but we chose not to. There is only so $$$ to go around and if you don't have it, you can't spend it. I'm not like the government. We made the decision to but meds and desk with the pain.
No crying at all on my end. I hope the extreme right continues being openly hostile to folks like me. It will make winning the presidency that much easier in 2016.
Skud. Interesting that the GOP health care initiative that was recently unveiled did not cover preexisting conditions..
@Kid: and of course, he and his beard surrendered their law licences and we don't know why.
"There are those who claim our immigration efforts would ensure illegal immigrants"
THAT was not a lie.
And by allowing those with health plans which cover very little, are you OK using your tax dollar to make up the difference? That's what's happening.
@Dave: Part of the problem is semantics.
When you sign up for insurance, you are wagering.
Your wager was that your wife would already have a need for knee surgery. Nobody wanted to take that bet.
Health Care instead is a plan by which you pay for service to maintain your health.
A loan company would see lending you money for that surgery as unsecured.
Our government is guaranteeing that loan.
And financing it at the expense of your fellow citizens livelihood.
No slam. No anger. Lot's of compassion from me.
But that's what it is.
It is not insurance as we've know it.
It is socialism.
@ED, the obvious choices for surenduring their law licenses are major liability and/or absolute certainty they'd never have to work again, but considering they surendured prior to he taking office in Jan, 2009, I lean toward the liability.
@Dave, Just like every OTHER POS Socialist health care system Many Hundreds of Thousands if not Millions will now suffer at the hands of a forever underfunded, non-caring government health care system.
Thanks so much for your part in voting for Evil. You don't have my sympathy.
Sure, pre-existing and people without/in between jobs were a hole in the American HC system.
It could have been fixed without screwing ALL of America.
Kid, get on the damn page.
The main effect of the ACA is to keep private insurers in charge and collecting their vigorish.
@Msgt John Correa
I see I missed one here. Well, i don't put much on polls, especially 3 years out, but that is somewhat encouraging.
OTOH, christie does not have a snowballs chance at the surface of the sun at getting elected as do any republican contenders I can even imagine in my wildest fantasy.
And In disclosure, I'd vote for satan before I'd vote for the hildebeast...
@Kid:
"I'd vote for satan before I'd vote for the hildebeast..."
There's no difference.
@ Dave Miller
my wife, because she had some issues 25 years ago has been consistently denied medical insurance since that time.
Aren't there policies that insure without covering pre-existing conditions for the first 10 months that the policies are in force? After that, all illnesses of all types are covered. I know for a fact that BCBS had such a policy in 2009, when I was searching for a private policy. He was denied coverage, but was offered a policy such as I described above. My cousin-in-law also took out such a policy back in 2003 -- and she had never before had health insurance (by hew own choice).
As one who has suffered excruciating knee pain -- both before and after the surgery -- I'd go on food stamps before I'd let that kind of pain continue.
Ed
Insurance of any sort is shared risk and healthcare should not be any different. If an insurance company knew your house was going to burn next week would they insure it?
I have always been against preexisting conditions exclusion.
I am surprised ducktail is so for obamadoom because it guarantees those awful insurance companies will not lose money.
Obama only talks against big business but they are the ones pulling the strings. His drive to destroy the middle class is in overdrive.
From Z of GeeeZ:
Well, I can sure see nobody MISSES ME when I'm GONE :-)
Got a disc drive problem, but a wondrous Computer Doc taking care of it and me, so hang tight...I'm writing from work; May have no email for a week, depending on what goes on.
ANYWAY:
Dave Miller, Seems to me the GOP plan might not have included preexisting conditions because they ARE covered now? You can't believe the whole ACA is going to be thrown out because better GOP ideas are FINALLY being heard.
I am surprised to hear liberals actually believe the pablum they're told about the GOP not caring about people, championing the rich, hating the poor..
My GOD< people GROW UP...look at this comments page; we have sick, we have poor and we have minorities. I have minorities in my family. Many others do, too.
Please grow up AND STOP the name calling and assumptions that THE NATION tells you.
This morning, on CNN, they covered a VERY important story about what political party listens to what music; The GOP loves YANNI, did you know that?
ANY OF YOU LISTEN TO YANNI? Or DOLLY PARTON?
THAT's the UTTER CRAP the Dems on CNN espouse.
BUT, to be fair....after the ridiculous news was touted very gleefully, Carol Costello DID say "To be fair, I know very conservative Republicans (As if she'd hang with THEM) who don't listen only to Yanni.
Gee, that's so big of you, Carol.
hilarious.
zzzzz
@z -- This morning, on CNN, they covered a VERY important story about what political party listens to what music; The GOP loves YANNI, did you know that?

Actually, that surprises me. I would have picked Volvo liberals.
I figured the younger right wing hasn't grown past heavy metal since a one bar melody is consistent with their attention span.
Dave Miller. Looks unanimous. Everyone says you're FOS.
No try to do better please.
