Joe Wilson's Floor Speech on Resolution

[billiamFTW]

I don't agree with his politics, but he sure as Hell has a sexy voice.

[DJMalus]

Go Joe!!!!

Bush deserved the booing and Obama deserved being called out

[gorillamann702]

YOU LIE! motherfucker!

[Halo3Player22]

Joe Wilson for the win!

[brunfist]

What bullshit this video is. It doesn't show the majority of the house giving Wilson a reprimand for his actions. This isn't about the issues it's about being respectable in the presence of your peers. Wilson demonstrated what his extremist supporters were doing in town hall meetings...purely despicable. And don't give me this garbage about "it needed to be said", there's a time for everything and this place wasn't it. This "fake" outrage over a public option is breaking our country apart.

[uberbcs]

Oh yes, and the Democrats booing and shouting at Bush during his 2005 speech to Congress was totally okay.

[ginhay2003]

I'm standing behind you, Joe Wilson. You have courage.

[linuxjvm]

You Lie!

[acej303]

I donated. Why? Because you had the balls to say something unlike these pussies.

[Bronco46tube]

Joe WIlson for President.

[jwinter228]

I'm only going to spend about 2 seconds on this: it's pretty sad that this is what everyone's so worried about - we're fighting two wars, in the biggest recession since the 30's, our national debt has been skyrocketing, and all of our jobs are being outsourced.

This just shows how all of Congress is more concerned with themselves than they are our country and their constituents. They're a complete disgrace - so is the news media - ti's just a game for everyone. Wake up everyone.

[MostHumbleManOnEarth]

Love you Joe..................Wilson 2012

[DillonX]

What a joke Joe Wilson is.

He's not for getting to work.

He's for saying "No" to anything Barack proposes.

He worked for racist Strom Thurmond who he still considers his personal hero.

South Carolina can do so-so much better & should boot this racist out of Congress.

[itequates]

Thank you for having the courage of your convictions, right or wrong! Freedom of Speech is the LAW ...or it is NOTHING!

[andrewh23]

He's very polite now isn't he? Where was that respect before?

[xinemd]

Progressives' sensibilities are offended... how elitist of you! But...didn't Hillary tell us that dissent is patriotic? What do you want? "Sorry Lovey, Sorry Mr. Howell... Joe didn't mean to depart from ettiquette just because the country's future is at stake."??

[xinemd]

haaa haha!! RESOLUTION: "......And Whereas the conduct of the Representative from South Carolina was a breach of decorum and degraded the proceedings of the joint session,... "

blah blah blah congress, like we have any respect your your resolution...

I think we need to pass a resolution against Obama and ALL of congress, since they have degraded the constitution..

[andrewh23]

That doesn't make sense - you are saying you want ALL of congress to pass a resolution against itself? They have these things called elections - if you vote at them, you get to pick new people for Congress. You lost them - deal with it.

[xinemd]

No doubt that a group of incumbubents will never pass anything that limits its own power....and you don't vote "at" someone, you vote "for" them. After all the massive taxes that are about to be slapped on the middle class, I'd say YOU are the one who will be dealing with it.

[xinemd]

So hilarious that the libs don't want to talk about their disrespect toward our former president from Texas, but their sensibilities are SO offended that Joe Wilson needs to grovel in the dirt to apologize for WHAT exactly? looool!! In your face progressives -- especially to my sister who loved to call Bush "The Devil."

[sp20122009]

Addison, this is low, even for a coward like you. Pimping your wife and hiding behind her skirt to deflect responsibility. You are a poster boy coward.

Vote Rob Miller 2010 - Iraq War Veteran who serves his country with courage, conviction, dignity, and responsibility. Vote Rob Miller and vote for a real HERO.

[sp20122009]

COWARD.

[ocmotivator]

Socialism is here! Joe Wilson was subjected to a modern day public hanging for exercising his First Amendment right. Be careful what you post here. You might end up in a hearing. Obama will do anything to get his Socialist agenda and Health care plan launched. But he's missing the movement. Already 59% of America is against it. Both Republicans and Dems together agree more daily. Looks like Obama IS a great community organizer!

[Parvstella]

I just donated to Joe's campaign today. My husband and I drove up from Florida to D.C. for the 912 March and Rally, and like many thousands there, this is the first time we have ever gone to a political rally. It was amazing, never seen so many people in one place in my life!

Joe had raised over $1 million by Sept. 12th, and we talked to many folks who were going to make a donation after they got home from the rally! I am sure is has gone well over $1 mil by now!

[jinha911]

He has raised $1.7 million. Just September 15th to 16th he raised $121,000. These liberal left wing are broke and MOST of them want things given to them for FREE. They say spread the wealth, but they know they WANT to keep their own money and ask someone else who are more successful to pay for their broke incompetent party.

[xinemd]

I also donated to Joe! Anybody will the guts to stand up to this administration gets my money AND my volunteer time!

[Gillz17]

xinemd,

I love the passion you have. Please be sure to have the same strong passion as the 2010 campaign season heats up.

Do not back down ever. If Dems don't get everything they want in the first health care bill they will just keep chipping away until all private insurance is gone. Those with more conservative views have and will continue to stop them but only if we remain strong! Don't back down!

[xinemd]

I have been working campaigns for the last 20 years, and don't intend to stop now. Let the libs do their damage, because the house and the senate will only be theirs for the next 14 months.

[TheRadicalLiberal]

Yeah, all of us liberals and leftists and socialists and progressives who are pissed off at Obama are going to vote for the Nazi party to make things right. :rolleyes:

[xinemd]

Joe Wilson is a class act. His "blurt" was a huge relief for those of us screaming the same thing at our televisions after yet another Obama stump speech. Contribute to his campaign. Joe Wilson is a true American hero.

[andreasjh]

Hear Hear!

[youngflungdung]

Joe Wilson receives more campaign funding from the health insurance lobby than any other source of contributions. He thinks about them a lot more than he thinks about you, you dumbass.

[jinha911]

another idiot with no proof to what he states and actually believe he knows it all. Fucking dip shit.

[xinemd]

Super! I like my healthcare, DUMBASS, and I like my healthcare company. Did you hear that?? I PAY MY OWN WAY!! I don't depend on the rest of my fellow Americans to give me something. Try getting a job... oh, wait, unemployment is still on the rise -- THANKS LIBS!

[bruinboy16]

isnt it wierd that he says "mister" speaker twice in this video? either this video is old and taken out of context, or joe wilson thinks nancy pelosi is a man.

[TKHouse317]

Nancy Pelosi was likely not present during the time this video was taken (this is common, you would not expect her to deal with all of the day-to-day parliamentary procedure). As the person standing in for her duties was a man, he is the "mister" Joe Wilson refers to.

[realityhammer]

Joe, you are a complete scumbag and a complete disgrace to congress. You wouldn't know the truth from a lie if it bit you on the ass. And it will, when you are deservingly booted from office next election.

[UnicorNation]

He apologized to Obama. Obama accepted his apology and said it was time to move on. But the democratic majority wants to grind Wilson into the dust for daring challenge the emperor. Frankly, he was wrong, but thanks to his outburst America found out that there was absolutely no verification of legal immigration status to qualify for the health program, so in practical terms any illegal immigrant willing to lie and provide false documents (if even requested) could game the system.

[4everhiz]

Joe, I was thinking the exact same thing that you mentioned today... I think it is absolutely ridiculous for everyone to be focusing on this "issue" STUPID!!!! You are a great American be encouraged and thank you for standing strong. You said what the rest of us were thinking and I thank you for that! HYPOCRYTICAL is the word for the Democrats... They never once apologize for the the name calling and the horrible things they say. And you just spoke the truth. THANK YOU!!

[kcstack]

We're proud of you, Joe. You spoke for millions of us who do not have a voice in Congress when you called out "you lie" to Obama. That speech was full of lies, and we need Joe Wilson and others like him to fill congress is 2010.

[2008republican2012]

Keep fighting Joe! These Dumbocrats will all be looking for work at the local fast food chains in their hometowns after the 2010 elections. They have shown their true colors. They all have their chocolate kool aid stains all around their mouth. Oh wait, that isn't Kool Aid, that is from Obama's ass! I hope my donation to you helps out!

[lmtamayo1]

I am so disappointed in Joe Wilson. He cast the first stone, yet his words are a direct reflection on himself (and no one else). I pity this poor man and all of those who continue to live in his absurd skewed reality.

[PizzaPizza33]

Boo hoo.

I guess your disappointed in Harry Ried as well for calling George Bush a liar and loser.

Pity on anyone who stands with that man.

[WasillaWhore]

Joe Wislon and the reDUMBplican party is full of OLD NASTY VILE WHITE males. White Niggers!

[order9066]

I haven't seen liberals this "outraged" since they learned Senator Byrd served in the West Virginia klan.

Okay, bad example.

BTW, Joe Wilson raised like $1.6 million at the time of my post.

[PizzaPizza33]

Excellent.

[xinemd]

I donated $250 of it!

[Sharoney]

Says who? His spokesmodel? Hah. I'll believe it when I see the quarterly FEC reports. Meanwhile, Rob Miller's totals ($950K and counting) are posted in REAL TIME for everyone to see on ActBlue's page.

[CarlaHerren]

Why do you think this kind of behavior is appropriate? I would have expected more from a great state like SC.

disgusted in Texas

[PizzaPizza33]

Also disgusted in Nevada I presume.

Senator Harry Ried called Pres. Bush a liar and loser.

I would have expected more from Democratic Leadership. Never mind, I wouldn't.

[bdmehmet]

You're not humble Joe Wilson. You got humbled by the Democrats.

]

[Republican4U2Envy]

Joe, keep fighting with us! We need people like you in office to speak out for we the people. Again, congress is trying to get Americans to focus on you and not the big issues. Don't worry Joe, most of them will be gone soon. They are too foolish to understand that they work for Americans... not themselves. We elect them in to office to speak for we the people and they aren't doing their job. I think you are doing wonderful! You make me proud!

[fncypntz]

Joe Wilson is a hypocritical ignoramus who, during a debate, denied the Iran-Contra affair ever happened, and said that Strom Thurmond's illegitimate daughter should have kept her mouth shut.

[Baradielbob]

Just further proof that Liberals are fucking worthless.

[suzireb]

Wilson should have stood up and said we are ALL LIARS. To swear an oath to the US Constitution and enslave the people to debt. This is about how we are to be Governed not (R) and (D). We have protected the weak and stupid for so long we have become a nation of weak and stupid people. And our royalty leaders have changed us into a Crony Capitalistic Society.  Welcome Comrades!

[xinemd]

Iraq didn't have to buy yellowcake from anybody. They have their own. Ask any soldier who has been their. The UN gave Iraq ten years to hide its WMD in Syrian sand caves and use it on his own people, the kurds. Donate to Joe Wilson -- a conservative who isn't afraid to LEAD!

[bildoreilly]

I like the other Joe Wilson better, not this lying confederate weasel.

Remember the other Joe Wilson? The one who found out President Bush was lying to America in his State Of The Union address when he claimed that Iraq was trying to buy yellowcake uranium for a nuclear bomb even though the CIA told him it was a lie but he said it anyway and wound up getting Scooter Libby convicted for perjury?

Where was this confederate Joe Wilson guy back then? Why didn't he call President Bush a liar?

[bdmehmet]

RESOLUTION: "......And Whereas the conduct of the Representative from South Carolina was a breach of decorum and degraded the proceedings of the joint session, to the discredit of the House: Now, therefore, be it Resolved, That the House of Representatives disapproves of the behavior of the Representative from South Carolina, Mr. Wilson, during the joint session of Congress held on September 9, 2009."

[bdmehmet]

]

VICTORY!....By a vote of 240 to 179, the House passed a "Resolution of Disapproval" against Rep. Joe Wilson (R-SC) for his interruption of Pres. Obama's address to Congress last week.

[

[EncompassedRunner]

Many Americans think Joe Wilson should not even have apologized the first time, for the reason that our times are not ordinary, nor is the threat posed by Obama policies, when taken in conjunction w/failure of Obama-proxy media to accurately inform the public -- so such an outburst, though unplanned, even if it had been planned would have been an appropriate alarm in our present crisis. This resolution blows the healing opportunity provided by Obama's acceptance of Wilson's immediate apology.

[bdmehmet]

Joe Wilson fax....

A lawfirm in SC sent me a fax on behalf of Joe Wilson...pertaining to my protest against him for his "You Lie" comment. I'll post it on the internet. And I will provide a link.

VOTE ROB MILLER 2010

[imcrazyriter]

Congressman Wilson, you did apologize. These liberal goons in DC are diverting attention away from the agenda again. It's ok. We The People are paying attention. And we have your back! The thugs, liars, cheaters in DC get patted on t he back. The civil decent Reps get called out on the plank! Not to worry. They will pay! We The People are watching. And 1.7 million marched to the front doors, if they still can't hear us We Will Come Back!

We applaud you Congressman!
