Rep. Wilson shouted “You lie!” in reaction to President Obama’s declare that the health care reform bill would not cover unlawful refugees. So this means Rep. Wilson thinks that the health care reform bill does in fact increase coverage to unlawful immigrants. In his request for forgiveness Rep. Wilson went as far as to stand by the sincerity of this state.
Congressman Wilson is as erroneous on the particulars as he was in the way he made his argument. There is entirely no provision of the health care reform bill which increases health care coverage to unlawful immigrant.
President Barack Obama received a Republican’s request for forgiveness for shouting, “You lie!” during his dialogue to Congress, and House Democratic leaders showed no concern in endorse against Rep. Joe Wilson.
Obama said that Wilson asks for forgiveness “promptly and without equivocation” and the congressman told reporters the shout-out was “unprompted.”
“We all make faults,” Obama told journalists, a day after Wilson astonished the president and his colleagues with his eruption.

Joe Wilson
What have you been listening to? Have you read the bill? If so, did you read between the lines? Wake up and smell the coffee.
As far as I am concerned Rep Wilson was elected to speak for the people. Well he was speaking for me and thousands of other voters when he told the Obama, “You Lie’” He did lie. Rep Wilson was my voice because I couldn’t be heard from home.
So I see, because you disagree with the parts (between the lines, not the actual verbage) of a plan to revamp an ailing healthcare system, you as a US citizen feel free to yell at the present leader of our country, during an official speech, as Wilson did…that he lies…..I imagine you would also encourage your children to behave rudely/inappropriately or have a temper tantrum if they are angered and do not agree with something. Your words supporting this action are indicative of the very serious violence and negative behaviors escalating before the eyes of the world. This behavior is tearing our country down rather than proactively trying to build it back up. You continue where the last administration left off….attempting to keep our nation at it’s knees, all the while saying don’t fix something that isn’t broken???
