President Obama Addresses Congress, Rude Republicans!

Okay, I understand if someone doesn't have the same policies, or believe in the same policies as our president. (We had to deal with Bush, we know how you feel Right Wing.)

For an adult of any merit to boo the President is disgraceful, but for members of our Congress to boo him? That just makes me embarrassed to be American.

(Seriously, it makes me want to move to England. Not kidding.)

What's worse than booing him?

As Obama talked about how his plan would not cover illegal immigrants, South Carolina Rep. Joe Wilson, yells "You lie!".

Did someone miss their midevening snack?

But now of course, they are back tracking. It seems as though the Republican party has been doing far more back tracking than pedaling forward in the past few years. When will they realize their best bet is to probably keep their mouth shut before they open it?

There is no doubt that this could quite possibly push those who were caught in the middle onto Obama's side.

But just in case, Wilson has decided to issue an apology:


“This evening I let my emotions get the best of me when listening to the
President’s remarks regarding the coverage of illegal immigrants in the health
care bill. While I disagree with the President’s statement, my comments were
inappropriate and regrettable. I extend sincere apologies to the President for
this lack of civility.”

Look. It has been almost a year since the Republicans lost their reign in the White House. Isn't it time to move on? Still spreading rumors about his birth certificate, and disagreeing with every single thing that comes out of his mouth? Get over it.

(You couldn't have at least clapped when he said that he believed it was wrong for the insurance companies to drop people mid-treatment for some ridiculous reason? He wasn't right about that? Are you people that upset over losing?)

Do we accept his apology? Maybe we would...if it were sincere. Or if he even made an effort to make it seem sincere. But he's just doing what he feels he has to, to save his ass. Lets just hope this time people don't buy into their bullshit.

By people, I mean the other members of Congress. Here's the thing, I honestly believe that Republican Americans are praising this man for speaking out.
(During a conference. In front of the entire country. Rudely.)
So they're probably more upset that he issued this fake apology, than the Right Wing are about how this could damage their argument.

Time will tell.
Do you accept his apology?
