Imagine that the shoe was on the other foot – or the shout came from the other side of the aisle.
Imagine this: President Bush gives a speech about reforming Social Security. He says we should adopt a partial privatization plan. And he vows that no older American will lose any of their Social Security as a result.
Imagine that, say, Mel Watt or G.K. Butterfield or Jim Clyburn – or any black congressman – shouts out: “You lie!”
Imagine what Fox News, Crazy Joe Wilson and Rush Limbaugh would say then.
