This Member of Congress was way out of line. Hard to believe it's just emotion.....It's a speech...nobody gets that emotional over a speech. The more common cause for this behavior is alcohol, which is plentiful in the Nations Capital. At least he had the sense to promptly apologize.....

I didn't know the Republicans had any emotions. I thought they are automatons, marching in lockstep to the magic of their General Limbaugh's voice. G Beck aka Tattoo will be running around kicking Wilson in the ankles.
AS if the citizens of South Carolina were not embarrassed enough with Their Luv Gov's antics , then this BOZO comes along and actually gives a face TO THE INSANE RAMBLINGS OF THE RIGHT WING , DO NOTHING , HEAD IN THE SAND REPUBLICANS -----------Get with the program , quit your crying , you bozos lost the election , get on board the train is leaving !
Great speech - clear cut goals and aim. Now it's up to Congress - piss or get off the pot as they say.
Pass a bill; vote on it and then answer to the people if your vote does not work out.
What's wrong with that idea?
Oh, I see (as I answer myself), the massive amounts of Insurance money might dry up, right Sen. Baucus ($4 million to date and counting)?
Pathetic. Go back to Montana and spend more time with your family and take Rep. Joe Wilson with you.
I would have been more interested in listening to Dennis miller he is just good at breaking it down.........
Just goes to show You what Our politicians have become.It's a shame. Just be thankful the Children were tucked into bed and not exposed to this.
What do you expect there politicians?
Yeah, Wilson probably should have kept his mouth shut. But does anyone really doubt that the whole health care "reform" plan isn't an outright pack of lies? Has any supporter of this plan came out and admitted that the true goal of "health care reform" is to place a large portion of the national gross product under direct government control? Great Briton, France's and Canada's government run health care plans are a shambles and is bankrupting all three of these countries. Socialized does not work. This has been proven time and time again. And yet these politicians are trying to make us believe it will work just because Nancey Pelosi and President Obama says so. Yes, highly techonlogical health procedures are expensive. back in my grandfathers day, health care was a lot cheaper. He also died at 69 years old from kidney failure. Something that could have been treated had he lived in today's world. The only real crisis we have in health care today is in the mind of the Washington politician because HE doesn't have control of it. Washington can't even get a piddly little program like Cash for Clunkers right! How in bloody blue blazes do you think they can run something like our health care system?
Anon 4:22... sorry pal, that's a crock of BS - from your post:
"... the true goal of "health care reform" is to place a large portion of the national gross product under direct government control?"
Do you realize what you are saying? I doubt it.
But having said that, with our system (tax code that totally out of whack and not fair or balanced) -- the FEDERAL government ALREADY has CONTROL...
They don't implement that control all the time; but when those in government, and NOT just the president, decides bills and laws and rules that is CONTROL - it's just a matter degrees and pressue and public outcry.
Please stay awake in class - your grades are suffering.

Anon 4:22, I am dying to know how you get your health coverage and how much does it cost you?
Maybe Texas will take SC with them when they secede? This time for good - pack up and go to say, Mexico?
I posted is that IVY - wanted to dump it here, too. Enjoy.
From Glenn Greenwald at Salon.com in part:
"Those who use curse words to oppose torture, wars and lawbreaking are
Evil and un-Serious (The Angry Left). Those who politely and soberly advocate morally repugnant, indecent policies are respected and Serious (The Cool, Calm and Self Righteous Right). As long as one adheres to Beltway decorum, one can advocate the most amoral and even murderous policies without any repercussions whatsoever; it is only disruptive and impolite behavior that generates intense upset. Beltway culture hates "incivility" (public use of bad words) but embraces full-scale substantive indecency (torture, lawbreaking, unjustified wars, ownership of government by corporations, etc.).
