Republican Joe Wilson Disrespectful During Obama's Address To Congress, Wilson Should Resign

Obama hit the ball out of the ball park with his address to congress on health care reform .However, during his speech to a joint session of Congress by President Obama, Wilson called out "You lie!" as Obama said there was no coverage for illegal immigrants in his healthcare plan.Fellow Congressmen shouted their disapprovals at Wilson's outburst. Wilson left the House chamber immediately after the end of the speech. After the session, appearing on Larry King Live, Senator John McCain (R-Arizona) said, "Totally disrespectful. No place for it in that setting or any other and he should apologize immediately." Wilson later apologized, saying "This evening I let my emotions get the best of me when listening to the Presidents remarks regarding the coverage of illegal immigrants in the health care bill. While I disagree with the Presidents statement, my comments were inappropriate and regrettable. I extend sincere apologies to the President for this lack of civility .I don't think this is good enough .Republicans called for Van Jones to resign .Wilson should resign also .Not only was he disrespectful to our president during his speech but Wilson is the lier .Look at the links below....

if anybody in congress yelled out against Bush during the discussion over the iraq war, Fox and many reppublicans would be calling out that congressman or woman resignation and claiming they are unpatriotic. they would be making a big scene, claiming liberals are anti-american. the hyprocrasy of the right, just going too far.

beagle..Just exactly what has the President done to cause an ever-worstening economy? Please be specific.

FYI..

-The term and the govt. post "Czar" was invented by Reagan.

-Bush had more of them then Obama.

-Obama doesn't even use the word.

-It's a negative term that the Presidents opponents are throwing around to describe posts that were, for the most part, actually invented by former presidents.

Quit regurgitating the right wing spin. Study some history and use some independent thought

That was A W E S O M E !!!

The ultimate mistake this man made was to apologise about it!

It is beyond frustrating when such disrespect is shown toward our President. It is even more frustrating when such disrespect is not only taken lightly but is LAUGHED AT!! I understand that everyone has differences of opinions but That Man is still the President of Our Nation and he deserves our respect, Like It Or Not.

@StoogeWatcher where did you read that? rangel is part of no group called the "black supremacist caucus." you are simply making things up at this point.

[StoogeWatcher]

@abovefilms Rangel is a member of the Black Supremacist Caucus, a group that plays the race card and has no concept of ethics. Not only Rangel, but Maxine Waters, Barbara Lee, Sheila Jackson Lee, Sanford Bishop. So explain how Nancy Pelosi drained the swamp.

[abovefilms]

@StoogeWatcher rangel is a ''black supremacist?" i've never heard rangel advocate one race over another. post your link to him saying that. if you can't, you should just admit that you made the whole thing up. and sign me up as a dem who would like to stop paying taxes. i'd like to hear more information you have on the policy that allows dems to not pay taxes.

JOE WILSON FOR PRESIDENT !!!!

[e081194eng]

Liberals are a bunch of pinko, panzie, fruit loopin', abortion havin', welfare givin', Obama lovin', child molestin', flower smellin', daisy pickin', enemy lovin', America destroyin', cum by ya singin', bunch of freakin' fruitcakes !!

[StoogeWatcher]

@abovefilms It's Democrats who have no class. They play the race card while defending black supremacists like Rangel. Do I have to remind you what the Democrats said after they took over the House, especially the part about draining the swamp and having the most ethical Congress in history. Of course, as a Democrat, you don't pay taxes but you advocate tax hikes for everyone else.

[abovefilms]

@StoogeWatcher a "two word outburst" that took place in congress. you don't seem to be able to understand that there is a difference in behavior between the house of representatives and a walmart parking lot. like joe wilson, you have no class.

[StoogeWatcher]

@abovefilms THe only scumbags here are the Democrats who bitch over a two word outburst while ignoring their own promises of draining the swamp by defending tax cheat Charlie Rangel.
