After being blasted by the liberal media and targeted
for removal in the 2010 election, Congressman Joe Wilson
has now been vindicated ... to the tune of $8.5 million.
That's not some lawsuit settlement. That's how much money
health care centers servicing migrant farm workers will be
receiving under a new ObamaCare grant.
The Department of Health and Human Services this week has
awarded $8.5 million to 25 clinic operations to "target
services to migrant and seasonal farm workers." The catch:
they're not required to check immigration status, thus sliding
straight through the illegal alien loophole that lead to
Wilson's September 2009 outburst.
A few weeks after his emphatic "You Lie!" comment, Wilson
shared a more-than-rational explanation for his actions.
Numerous health care town hall forums during the August 2009
Congressional recess had been chocked full of constituents who
were outraged with the President's plans to overhaul and
socialize one-sixth of the American economy. On the very day
leading up to the Presidential address, Wilson attended a
Congressional health care hearing that uncovered the very
loophole that has now awarded $8.5 million in coverage for
illegal aliens.
Wilson has repeatedly said, if he had to do it over again,
he would have kept quiet... out of respect for the office and
the setting. But, if he had not called out to President Obama
that night, no one would have remembered Obama's comment and
the fact that he faced a joint session of Congress and the
American people and lied.
Joe Wilson was right!
The President did lie, and now American taxpayers are
spending millions of dollars we can't afford on health care
programs to service people who've chosen to come into our
country illegally.
