On September 9, 2009, while addressing a joint session of Congress, President Obama told the nation that his so-called health care reform legislation (Obamacare) would not cover illegal aliens, saying: “The reforms I'm proposing would not apply to those who are here illegally.”
No sooner than did this questionable promise roll off of Obama’s silver tongue, did Rep. Joe Wilson (R-S.C.) shout from the House floor what many of us were thinking, when he yelled: “You lie!” Now, Wilson’s indictment seems to have been proven right. On Tuesday, the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) announced it was awarding a $28.8 million Obamacare grant to 67 community health centers, many of which offer free care to illegal aliens. HHS spokeswoman Judy Andrews told CNSNews.com that “approximately $8.5 million will be used by 25 New Access Point awardees to target services to illegal aliens.” [Well, duh! Of course Joe Wilson was right. Who is going to keep illegal aliens off of Obamacare --- no one is allowed to ask if they are illegal. -- Thanks for being part of "PoliticalForum" at Google Groups.
