There is a large and dissatisfied group of mostly white men who are afraid because the things that gave them power--their whiteness, their maleness, their heterosexulaity--are, in the wake of legal and societal empowerment of people of color, women of all colors, and gay people of both sexes and all colors, culminating with the election of a black president, not all that "Joanne Matterahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02564594823192456546noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30832682.post-68594088424434950052009-09-16T15:17:17.915-04:002009-09-16T15:17:17.915-04:00Today, September 16,2009 Salon.Com had an excellen...Today, September 16,2009 Salon.Com had an excellent article, "Meet the Man Who Changed Glenn Beck's Life". Reading it sent shivers down my spine. It never ceases to amaze me how the idiots manage to be listened to over the sane. BTW- Joe Wilson in my opinion is not sorry at all. No way -no how.

I believe he was responding to Obama's saying that illegal immigrants will not be covered. And Obama is correct, Wilson is wrong, looks stupid, makes the party look stupider...and underlying this, I would say there also is racism.

Anyone else catch that? Dr Congressman (as if doctors know anything about health care!) essentially said, "yes we agree we need cheaper and better health care, but we don't like how you want to do it" and never mentioned universal coverage.
