The President and Congress are entitled to lie, obfuscate, bend the truth, etc. That is the Progressive mantra; only the elitists know what's best for us; if they have to lie to accomplish their goals, so be it. It's only for our own good. Who are we to challenge their authority? After all,the Progressives tossed out civics classes in the high schools back in the 70's; an uninformed electorate was their ultimate goal. Guess what, they succeeded.

The bravest member of the House of Representatives, Democrat Bart Stupak of Michigan, is calling President Barack Obama's bluff on the question of federal funding of abortion in the health care bill.

Like other members, Stupak was sitting in the House chamber on Sept. 9 when Obama delivered a nationally televised address to a joint session of Congress urging passage of the bill.

It was during this speech that Obama said it was false to claim the bill would provide insurance to illegal immigrants and that Republican Rep. Joe Wilson of South Carolina famously blurted out, "You lie."
