“You Lie!”  The shout heard around the world by Joe Wilson is being called by everyone on the right as rude and inappropriate, but I disagree.  Joe did what we’ve been wanting politicians to do for a very long time.  Confront the left on their lies.  The time to do that isn’t in a response.  You call a liar a liar.  You don’t refrain because decorum says you shouldn’t

What  Congressman Joe did (what a great name) was be the voice of the American public, which is precisely why we sent him  to Congress.  Joe apologized for his rude behavior, but not the comment.  Now, I don’t want to see our system devolve into a verbal free-for-all, but we got to this place where our president has no qualms about making bald faced lies when addressing the nation, by not calling those on the left liars when they lied.  We’re now at a point where they will brazenly lie to us without shame anytime, anyplace, and on any subject.

Consequently, we have to be willing to call them out on it in anytime, in anyplace, and on any subject.  The consequence of inattention to their lies in the past has put us here, and we can no longer tolerate such bold deception.  It  must be called out whenever we are confronted with it, and good manners be damned.  The height of rudeness is to lie to a man’s face, and Obama and his pals should no longer be allowed to get away with it.

If that means shouting out to the president that he’s lying while addressing the Nation, so be it.  Maybe the left will become a little more respectful of the truth (doubtful), and the American people.
