Is Jim Clyburn trying to get on Obama's good side?

He was the one that introduced the reprimand by congress today of the guy that called Obama a liar.

Here is what you didn't know... Jim Clyburn was suppose to be in a foursome yesterday with Obama. He even organized the media to capture his event for the people back home. Guess what happened he was scratched. Yeah booted out of the foursome without explanation. This humiliation was humbling enough to get him to introduce the reprimand that took congress all day long to word it correctly so it will work within house rules (IOW, the guy that called Obama a liar wasn't covered by house rules since it was a special session that involved the Senate also).

Worst yet, they are reprimanding a guy that already apologized once. And even worse than that, it looks like Obama did lie. The Congressional Research Service confirmed illegal immigrants could receive coverage under the bill.

Just watch and see what happens... there will be an amendment or a change which will prevent illegals from getting healthcare that Obama claimed was already prevented.

“Democrats twice defeated amendments that would have required citizenship verification of these programs, and the nonpartisan Congressional Research Service has confirmed that illegal immigrants could receive coverage under the bill. As Americans have learned on the bailouts, stimulus, and now health care, the president's rhetoric does not match his policies.”

It will be interesting to see why Clyburn was kicked out of the golf foursome with Obama.

    he was probably scratched because the next day he turned this into the proverbial "racial" issue....
