So, Joe Wilson's outburst was an issue of race, huh?
Strange how he yelled "You lie" at Obama after he talked about how illegal immigrants would not be covered in the healthcare plan. And yet Maureen Dowd, a NY Times columnist, insists that it was an issue of race. Can she honestly imply that he wouldn't have shouted "You lie" at a white liar? A lie is a lie, no matter who tells it.
Skin color is no issue if someone is putting lives at risk or lying about major issues. Whoever does that is dangerous. Wilson obviously felt that Obama was doing just that. But it's just like a liberal to insist that anyone who disagrees with a colored person's morals is racist. Believe me, I've been called racist myself.
If Wilson told Obama he detested Obama's homemade cupcakes, Wilson would be called racist. It's an unwinnable battle. Anything you say is racism. His outburst was out of place, but calling him racist is going too far.
But we all know liberals are experts at ignorantly going too far.
