Let's see. 2 + 2 = ??

Are we really still talking about Congressman Joe Wilson?
Critics (on the left, surprise surprise) of his outburst last week would now have us all believe that they can read Wilson's mind. Of course their conclusion is that his outcry was motivated by racism. There is of course no evidence of that, but that's never stopped them (lefties) from similar smears before.
To get to the bottom of this incredibly important issue I've watched the clip numerous times. I listed all the pertinent facts. I come to a different conclusion. Let's see if you agree.
Fact 1- Congressman Wilson yelled out the words "You lie" at Pres. Obama (he's black you know) during his speech last week.
Fact 2- He did so immediately after the president had inarguably told a clear lie about a controversial subject.
After careful consideration, and in the spirit of giving the benefit of the doubt, I'm going to presume that Wilson was more annoyed by the president's lie than he was his race.
Now, in the spirit of judging people by their own standards I must conclude that every time the liberals leapt to their feet to give Obama a standing ovation, they were doing so not because they were reacting to what he had just said, but because he's black.

Everything old is new again.

Have you noticed the latest 'new' strategy being used by the left wing? Apparently "socialism" has become the new "N" word. So have "Marxist", "liberal", and now "liar". In fact any word used to criticize Pres. Obama is tantamount to dropping the "N" bomb.
Fortunately, truth always being the ultimate defense, these words all have well established definitions which Obama seems to personify.
Actually, this is not a new strategy. It's just the latest incarnation of a liberal staple. This very tired trick is their pathetic attempt to be on offense.
On the surface it would seem that the enlightened left, arbiters of all that is inclusive, are the ones unable to see past race. And that is actually true.
But this is so much more. In this case the race-baiters themselves don't even believe the charges they levy. They simply want to change the debate from Obama's wreckless policies to the motives of his detractors. And to minimize the opposition by making good people afraid to speak out, lest they have a scarlett 'R' imprinted on them.
I know the press is on their side. And the libs have the House, the Senate, the Presidency, the unions, the 'community organizations, yada yada yada. It would seem, as it were, that we are surrounded by Syrians.
"Fear not: they that be with us are more than they that be with them". Keep working and soon the armies and chariots of fire will be clearly visible to all. (See 2 Kings 15-17)
