During President Obama's speech to a joint session of Congress tonight regarding health care reform, Republican Congressman Joe Wilson (R-S.C.) yelled out "lie" when the President said his health care bill would not mandate coverage for illegal immigrants.Maybe this is how they teach their kids to be respectful when they keep them home from school.
You stay klassy, Joe.
Update via rawstory.com. Purely coincidental, no doubt:
Whether because of his outspokenness or in spite of it, Wilson is a major recipient of contributions from the health care industry.
In fact, over his entire congressional career, health professionals represent Wilson’s top industry contributors, donating a total of $244,196 to his campaign, according to the Center for Responsive Politics OpenSecrets.org database. He received another $86,150 from pharmaceutical companies, $73,050 from insurance companies and $68,000 from hospitals and nursing homes.
Among Wilson’s top contributors are the American Hospital Association, a lobby group that represents the interests of hospitals and health networks, and the American Medical Association, which represents physicians.

Here's another classic:
The California Republican state legislator caught divulging lurid details on a live microphone about his affair with a lobbyist has resigned, the Los Angeles Times reports.
Orange County Assemblyman Michael D. Duvall apparently didn’t realize that his mic had gone live just before a committee hearing. At the time, he was telling a Republican colleague, “We had made love Wednesday — a lot! And so she’ll, she’s all, ‘I am going up and down the stairs, and you’re dripping out of me!’ So messy!”
“So, I am getting into spanking her,” Duvall continued. “Yeah, I like it. I like spanking her. She goes, ‘I know you like spanking me.’ I said, ‘Yeah! Because you’re such a bad girl!’”

let's see, union thugs beat up an obamacare protester, another obama lover bit the finger off a protester, bomb threats were called into today's dc tea party (which cnn said was 2 million strong), an abortion protester was shot and killed outside a school, and acorn workers actively help pimps and their 12 year old prostitutes get govt housing. and, unlike bu$h, sen kennedy personally killed someone, and none of his liberal voters cared.
but yeah, yelling an insult at the president. how crude. should have thrown a shoe
