If the public option goes through, the fun will only just be starting, as the Fourth Reich sets about making damn sure that it is a total disaster. They can do it, and they will do it.

Earlier today, Greg Sargent noted an extraordinary outburst by Joe "You Lie" Wilson in 2002, berating his a Democratic colleague, Rep. Bob Filner of California, as an anti-American traitor.

We've dug up the video, and it's truly breathtaking:

It just gets better and better.

Joe Wilson turns out to be a neo-Confederate.

A racist calling our black President a liar while Glen Beck and Rush Limbaugh praise him for being honest.I rest my case.

From what I've seen today, everyone on CNN and MSNBC was discussing the points of the speech. They mention Wilson in a follow-up question, but he's not distracting from the serious health care debate as much as Rush Limbaugh et. al. would probably like him too.

I think to the great middle out there, the story is that some Republican called the president a liar after the president spent all that time saying nice things bout 'em. And he wasn't even lying.

I'm sure everyone will be shocked that the largest contributors to his campaign coffers have been...wait for it...from the...wait for it...healthcare industry!

Weirdly enough, some pinched faced blonde robot lady was on CNN tonight claiming that it's the Democrats in bed with the health care industry. These people could claim poop was tasty and tomorrow half of america would be making poop milkshakes.

"Weirdly enough, some pinched faced blonde robot lady was on CNN tonight claiming that it's the Democrats in bed with the health care industry."

To be fair, there are plenty of legislators on BOTH sides of the aisle who take tons of money from the healthcare industry. In fact, almost every senator from a small state falls into that category. If you look at some of the 'conservative' Dem senators who are a 'No' vote (or iffy) on a public option, and you'll see they all get a significant percentage of their campaign contributions from healthcare.

Damn blue dogs.

And the saddest part of all that? Many of these senators ON BOTH SIDES OF THE AISLE represent constituencies that would greatly benefit from a public option. Some of them have the highest rates of uninsured people, but yet they put that aside and answer to their big contributors. It makes me worry about how much worse it will get if the SCOTUS opens up the corporate money floodgates, as they seem poised to do.

two things of interest

1) Scary supportive article re: Alan Wilson's candidacy for A.G. http://www.thesunnews.com/news/local/story/1062084.html

2) I notice two posters haven't commented in this thread at all. Intriguing!
