You Lie vs.You Die

Here is an excellent article by Bob Eberle of the Loft site I'd like you to read. This guy Grayson is a complete and utter asshole and comparing people who died from not having government insurance a holacaust and blaming it on republicans is a complete insult to all who were involved in that. I heard a woman caller to Sean Hannity today who's parents survived the holacaust and she was so insulted by that remark and rightly so.. Well keep the comments coming you dems because 2010 is slaughter time.
You Lie vs You Die... Where's the Real Apology?

During Barack Obama's speech to a joint session of Congress at the point when Obama said illegal aliens will not receive free health care, Rep. Joe Wilson shouted, "You lie!" The Democrats spun themselves into a tizzy. How dare someone be so rude. They immediately demanded an apology. Wilson complied. However, they continued to press the issue.
Now, along comes Rep. Alan Grayson (D-FL) who spoke from the House floor and said that the Republican health care plan was simply for Americans to "die quickly" if they get sick. Republicans were outraged and demanded an apology. As it turns out, Grayson's apology was even worse. Let's see how fast the Democrats rush to pass a resolution against him!
To refresh everyone's memory, after Rep. Wilson's famous words were shouted, he issued the following apology on the very night of the speech:
"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," Wilson said.
"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."
I don't know about you, but to me, that sounds like a sincere apology. So, let's just move on. Of course, the Democrats couldn't do that. Instead, they wanted another apology from the House floor and drafted a resolution condemning Wilson's actions. This brings us to Rep. Grayson. Here is his statement from earlier in the week:
Don't get sick... and if you do... die quickly. Grayson is telling the American people that Republicans just want them to die. Where is the outrage and the reprimand?
Grayson, as unstable as ever, took it upon himself to "apologize" the next day, and only made matters worse:
Grayson apologizes to the dead and their families for not ending this holocaust? This is an apology? Was one insult not enough for this guy? Is this how the Democrats debate an issue as important as health care?
As noted in a story on FOXNews.com, Republicans are preparing to handle Grayson just like the Democrats focused on Wilson. The difference, however, is that Wilson immediately apologized directly and sincerely to Obama. Grayson made a mockery of his apology and added more fuel to the fire.
"This is an individual who has established a pathological pattern of unstable behavior," said Ken Spain, spokesman for the National Republican Congressional Committee.
"Alan Grayson not only refuses to apologize, but he is doubling down on his despicable remarks and he is dragging his party down with him," he said.
In the Associated Press story on GOPUSA, the reporter describes the Republicans as wanting to get "payback." What about just wanting some consistency and uniformity in addressing the actions of its members?
Rep. Tom Price of Georgia, who heads the conservative Republican Study Committee, drafted a "resolution of disapproval" that mirrors the one Democrats approved against Wilson, saying Grayson's conduct was "a breach of decorum and degraded the integrity and proceedings of the House."
Price said he was withholding resolution to give Grayson more time to consider an apology, but that the measure could be introduced later this week.
"The American people want open and honest discussion," said Price, whose efforts had the backing of Republican leadership. "They want respectful discussion."
Where is Pelosi on this one? She was so "frightened" by the rhetoric, and here we have Grayson telling the American people that Republicans want them to die quickly. Where is the outrage?
According to the AP story:
Democratic leaders have so far have been quiet. Grayson said he spoke with them about the incident and that none had asked him to apologize.
Behind the scenes, Democratic aides point to comments that Republicans have made in recent weeks alleging that Democratic health care legislation would kill people.
We all know a double standard exists both in the media and in Washington. Hopefully, with an example so striking, Americans will see that protocol and decorum only apply when it benefits the Democrats.
