My husband and I only refer to ourselves as Americans–no hyphenation, no, no, no. Get with the program, libs.

prendad:

Lloyd Marcus would rouse the Tea Partiers as the Tea Party Express crossed the US when his first statement was:

“I am NOT and African-American I am an American!!!”

There is no such thing as a hyphenated American and that needs to be ingrained in the “skulls with mush”.

We have an interesting situation in AZ–

Jeff Flake R-D5 voted against Wilson–I sent him a scathing letter for being just another RINO.

Gabrielle Giffords D-8, my Rep, who is Pelousy clone voted NO. Go figure.

The truth is that it really didn’t mean anything one way or the other just grandstanding—I for one have had enough!!! Throw them all out:

Flip the House 2010!!!
Blow Out Congress
Get Out Of Our House

Plenty of orgs to help with the overturning of Congress–they ALL have to go 2010!!!

Don’t you all wish the Democrats would let the race issue go? They just keep it alive and well in this country.

This article by a black man on the Tea Party Express says it all – his experience with racism came from the liberals, not the Tea Party Patriots.

Libs, stop the racism accusations! They’re getting old and worn out. Most people are at the point of saturation and don’t care anymore.

From former president Carter:”I think it’s based on racism,” Carter said. “There is an inherent feeling among many in this country that an African-American should not be president.”

I think that this statement is one of the dumbest things I have ever heard coming from a former president. But, looking at his record of mis-accomplishments during his one term, I am not surprized. Stick to peanuts Jimmah.

Decorum rules violate amendment #1. Surely there are a few left in Congress familiar with the Constitution? Of course, they don’t read the bills they vote on, why would they know anything about any previous laws?

Say it ain’t so Joe!

Rebuke rhymes with…

And whats the difference between a “boo” statement and a “you lie” statement?

And if I can’t use the word liar in a meeting full of liars, can I use “willing suspension of disbelief” or “facilitator of dishonest politics”?

How stupid to ban a word when the same meaning can be equally presented in an infinite number of alternative ways? Who do they think they are fooling other than zyzzyg?

Well, I guess that is what they were trying to do. This smells of partisan politics but apparently some of the Republicans still have their head in the sand.

Seems to me it’s okay for Dems to hiss and boo a Republican President as many times as they like, but it is racist for any show of emotion by any Republican when a Democrat President speaks (and it doesn’t seem to matter whether that Democrat President is speaking in the well of Congress or at one of his pre-staged Town Halls). Just give me a freakin’ break! This rebuke has “degrade the Republicans” written all over it!!

Now Carter is getting involved calling Wilson a “racist”. There’s a man who needs to retire to Georgia, sit on his porch, take his pills, and remember his days in the navy. Perhaps he can restart “Billy Beer” again.

“The House Blacks spur racism against Wilson.” Seems to me that they and their comrads (Jessie Jackson, Al Sharpten and the NAACP) are the ones spawning racism, they make a profit out of it.

On September 15th, 2009 at 9:11 pm, zyzzyg said: When you break the rules, you must suffer the consequences of your actions. Do you agree?

Am I missing something? Which specific rule did Wilson break? If there was already a rule against what he did, why did they have to revise the decorum rules to include "you can't call the President a liar"?? Surely by adding that line item, the implication is that it wasn't there to begin with!

I’m with zyzzyg on this one. Let them censure him, rebuke him, and call him bad names. Those are the rules, and he should live by them.

Of course, like so many others here I’d mock Congress. If I were Joe Wilson I’d get a button made saying “I speak truth to power,” or something like that.

Rangel, Jefferson and others don’t have that liberty. In fact, unless the system is more corrupt than even WE claim it is, they won’t have any liberty at all.

Careful picking up the soap, Charlie.
