Intershame On: Joe Wilson |
Who Lied?
09/11/2009
By now, everybody knows that Republican congressman Joe Wilson shouted "You lie" during President Obama's speech to congress. Wilson's breech of etiquette was obvious. What wasn't obvious was his lack of credibility when it comes to honesty.
You see, back in 2002, congressman Wilson helped peddle the biggest lie of them all; The lie that helped kill thousands of people and emptied our nation's coffers.
What am I talking about? Here's the transcript, video at 12:10...
Joe Wilson: The case has been made. I really call on Democrats to read the dossier today, the 50 page dossier which is well written, well thought out by the British government and it goes into great detail about how Uranium is being sought from Africa to be used to produce nuclear weapons by Saddam Hussein to be used against America.
And opponents of health care reform would have us believe that Joe Wilson is some great sage who knows the real truth? Sorry, not with credibility credentials like that.
Oh, and just for fun, check out Wilson's uncontrolled rage directed at Democrat Robert Filner (watch from 32:21 until 34:40). When Filner suggests that the United States once provided Saddam Hussein with weapons in order to fight Iran, he gets a taste of how Joe Wilson would one day treat the President.

- 875 days agoWilson, like most of the hard line right winged Republicans are not interested in the truth or helping the country. They are only concerned with the lobbyists that support them and how they can keep "their" nation racially clean. It's no wonder that the ultra-conservatives continually use fear mongering and blatant lies that pander to societies most ignorant, racist and self centered citizens as a way to achieve their agenda of wealth hording.
- 875 days agoIt's not a lie if you believe it... even if "it" is false. You could still be wrong, but you wouldn't be a liar.
Assuming Wilson knew the uranium evidence was fabricated is a stretch. At worst, he was simply repeating info from official state department reports. - 875 days agoMrCrumley, watch the video, especially after 32:21...this is a man who is part of a disinformation effort - the fact the U.S. had provided Saddam with the weapons is a matter of public record. And the "official State department reports" at the time (according to Condolessa Rice)confirmed there were no weapons of mass destruction,and the British report he keeps insisting everyone read is founded on false information the White House had provided. You revisionists have to understand it was all a lie from the very beginning, this is a matter of record.
- 869 days agohe talks like a pussy, there is obviously no one alive inside im not listening to the rest
