NEVER TOLERATE TYRANNY!....Conservative voices from the GRASSROOTS.

Republican Rep. Joe Wilson created waves that left Washington rocking for weeks by shouting "You lie" to Barack Obama during the president's address to Congress last fall, and now a similar message
has been delivered by a member of the president's own party.
Sen. Jay Rockefeller, D-W.Va., told an audience today the president is "beginning to be not believable to me."
The comment was just the latest evidence of the dissension in the Democratic Party that prevented Obama from passing his health care proposal last year despite having a significant party majority in the
U.S. House and a supermajority of 60 votes in the Senate.
Rockefeller, a Democrat in a family of lifelong Republicans, was referring to Obama's proposed budget that would cut tax incentives to coal mining companies.
The cut would hit West Virginia's coal industry hard, and Rockefeller's dissatisfaction was evident in the video posted on Real Clear Politics.
Obama's budget proposal would kill $2.3 billion in coal tax breaks, Rockefeller pointed out
"He says 'I'm for clean coal,' and then he says it in his speeches, but he doesn't say it in here. And he doesn't say it in the minds of my own people. And he's beginning to be not believable to me," Rockefeller
said.
Participants in a Real Clear Politics online forum said, essentially, it's about time:
Democrats in Congress have bickered over specific aspects of health care legislation, blamed White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel for the effort's failure and have been unable to reach agreement on
legislation even when Republicans were not invited to the discussion,
notes The Hill newspaper.
Sen. Al Franken, D-Minn., also has blasted Obama's chief political strategist, David Axelrod, over the failure to advance Obama's agenda.
It was last September when Wilson yelled . . . . . ."You lie!" . . . . . . in response to Obama's declaration in a speech before Congress that his plan wouldn't provide tax-paid health care to illegal aliens.
The congressman apologized to the president but refused to apologize to members of the House.
WND columnist and former U.S. Rep. Tom Tancredo said even though "liberals went nuts," Wilson actually was right.
"Obama conceded as much when two days later the White House issued guidelines to close some of the loopholes that allowed illegal aliens to acquire health insurance in the House bill," Tancredo wrote.
"But despite those guidelines, illegal aliens are still eligible for
Obamacare under both the House and Senate bills.
