A Voice in the Wilderness In Defense of "Mere Conservatism"

But Joe Wilson lied…

President Obama and the media have been livid the past week over the fact that conservatives, like Rep. Joe Wilson, do not believe the president when he says that illegal immigrants will not be covered by his health care option.

But that was last week...things "change" in the land of Barack the Rhetorical:

President Obama said this week that his health care plan won't cover illegal immigrants, but argued that's all the more reason to legalize them and ensure they eventually do get coverage.

But remember, Joe Wilson was way out of line for suggesting that the president wasn't being totally honest when he said last Wednsday night that no illegals would be covered.  Little did we know he simply meant to make all of them legal and then give them health care paid for with our money.

If you don't understand why this is ridiculous, and more importantly, why this is dangerous for our country and economy...then you are probably one of those few people who still think President Obama is doing a good job.
