How about this as a mental exercise: Try to remember back to the year 2009. It was only a decade ago, but it feels like a totally different era -- and in many ways it was.
In 2009, most people didn't have smartphones. Late night television was still funny. The Democratic Party was still pretending to put the interests of American citizens above those of the rest of the world.
In September of 2009, President Obama gave a speech about health care to a joint session of Congress. You may remember it. One of Obama's most emphatic promises in that speech -- in fact, during that whole season -- was that foreigners living in our country illegally would never receive benefits under his plan. He said that repeatedly.
But not everyone believed him.
President Obama, Sept. 9, 2009: There are also those who claim that our reform efforts would ensure illegal immigrants. This too, is false. The reforms -- the reforms I'm proposing would not apply to those who are here illegally.
Rep. Joe Wilson, R-S.C.: You lie!
Obama: That's not true.
"You lie!" That man was Congressman Joe Wilson of South Carolina. For the crime of being rude to St. Obama, Wilson was instantly denounced by his fellow Republicans, "Totally disrespectful," huffed Sen. John McCain, who himself had spent decades yelling obscenities at people on Capitol Hill. Jimmy Carter called Wilson a racist.

John Glenn prostituted himself for BJ Clinton.
Chesley Sullenberger prostituted himself for the Fraud.
Gary Sinise prostituted himself for Ace McCain.

All of the Kenyanesian Usurpation was a lie.
I’m glad Tucker played this last night. Pretty sure he said McLain was the first Republican to scold Joe Wilson.
Compare what Joe did to what the ems do, and the Dem’s support each other even though they ae wrong. The Republicans don’t support this guy who was right - unbelievable.
We all knew it was a lie before Wilson even spoke up.
John McCain may he burn forever in “HELL” with his “hate America” idols, Obama, Satan and the Devil himself!!!
Guess we know what any of McCain’s speeches were worth.
Excellent point, and so true.
This is the Democrats candidate, in his own words...

And one of his senior campaign aides...
The Dem’s have some real winners.
Unless he wakes up with a horse’s head in his bed, Sanders is going to have to go 3rd Party, or something else. No matter that there isn’t one person on here that agrees with Sanders on, pretty much, anything, you have to give him some credit for being consistent and true to his ideas. As screwed up as they are and as dumb as they are. He’s not a smart guy, but he does have some passion. He was filling arenas 3 years ago, when she could barely fill a high school gymnasium. Did he sell out at the end? Yup. Got a nice house on the lake for it as well. But his wife is as dirty as they come and I’m sure she could have been prosecuted, so it was either take the lake house and shut up or your wife is going to prison. Not a hard decision.
Now, the puppet masters are going to do it to him again. Wonder if he’ll sit idly by this time.
Biden on the other hand, is not only dumber than a box of rocks, he has no emotion. He’s as corrupt as they come and it’s just a matter of time before the claws come out. The MSM won’t be able to control the narrative, whatever it ends up being, from the White House. And I think we’re all aware that the current occupant fights like a barroom brawler, when he has to.
The Kenyan queer lie! Tell me its not so
I still wish that Joe had not apologized.
Ophonybama was a serial liar, and still is!
Joe Wilson got my vote for “Tea Party Member #1” for that outburst.
I couldn’t believe all of the ‘righteously indignant’ looks he got from ‘our’ side of aisle.
