The House Is Burning Down...and They Just Keep Adding Fuel to the Fire

A discredited Congress that is held in low esteem by a record number of U.S. Citizens, which is littered with tax cheats and ethically challenged grafters, and which is lead by a condescending and politically abusive political hack who chooses to attack both those within the government, as well as citizens themselves, when it serves her purpose; and whose anti-USA efforts can often reach staggeringly hypocritical and openly bizarre heights of hubris, have finally found something that they find so heinous that they have been forced to act upon it and to reprimand one of their fellow members of Congress.

It would be laughable if it weren't just so blatantly immoral and politically partisan.

That this abominable collection of miscreants and reprobates yesterday would put themselves forward to judge Rep. Joe Wilson (R-SC) for daring to speak "Truth" within the hallowed halls of power in Washington,  D.C., should sicken any citizen who truly loves America, and who cares about ethics and good government.

As you read the links below, remember first and foremost that this culture of corruption did not spring forth out of nowhere; we must never forget that this mess can be laid squarely at the feet of a short-sighted and/or apathetic American Electorate.

Comrades Pelosi, Rangel, Dodd, Frank, Murtha & Co. may now find themselves for a brief period in a position to work this kind of political malfeasance my friends, but remind yourself daily, they did not get there on their own, and, thankfully, there is a solution beyond "HOPE".

READ, LISTEN, QUESTION, DEBATE and, most importantly, VOTE WISELY IN 2010.

Lawmaker's 'You lie' outburst draws House rebuke

"WASHINGTON – Bitterly divided along party lines, the House formally rebuked Republican Rep. Joe Wilson Tuesday for shouting "You lie" at President Barack Obama during last week's nationally televised speech to Congress.

The rare resolution of disapproval was pushed through by Democrats insisting that Wilson, a South Carolina lawmaker, had violated basic rules of decorum and civility in his outburst. Republicans dismissed the vote as a political "witch hunt" and a waste of precious time and taxpayers' money.

Wilson had called the White House to apologize shortly after the incident, and he said at the time that the president "graciously accepted my apology and the issue is over." Republicans agreed, but several Democrats pressed the issue. Read More"
