'You lie': McCain says Wilson 'should apologize for it immediately'

Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) and Democratic leaders are calling on Rep. Joe Wilson (R-S.C.) to apologize for heckling President Obama as a liar.

Wilson shouted to the president "you lie" after Obama said illegal immigrants would not benefit from health insurance coverage from the reform bill. Obama glared disgustedly in the direction the remark came from, as did Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) and Vice President Joe Biden.

House Democratic Whip James Clyburn (D-S.C.) called Wilson's outburst "embarrassing," while McCain said it was "totally disrespectful" and that there was "no place for it in that setting or any other."

McCain said Wilson "should apologize for it immediately."

Wilson should not apologize until AFTER BO’s “green czar” apologizes for calling Americans @$$holes.

Arizona is where I was born and raised. I implore Arizonans to vote that covert democrat out of office. (Goldwater must be doing outraged somersaults in his grave.)

Truth to power, John.

It's, like, the reason for Congress.

Right On! This liberal Republican deserves to be ignored for anything he says from now on (Actually most all Republicans)! He is fast becoming an embarrassment to the party - although they do tend to do that to themselves more often than not... Not sure that we have two parties these days - would really like to see an outgrowth of another party! Let’s call it the Constitutionalists Party (ignore all others)...

Of course not.

Obama does not think that rat lies should be apologized for. Apologies, according to the great zero, should only be demanded from people who tell the truth.

McCain spends so much time on the other side of the aisle I wish he would just go sit there! Enough already. The guy just couldn’t hold back any longer. They are lucky my husband wasn’t there, his middle finger is sore!

Bob Bennett (RINO-UT) was the only Republican who stood up and clapped when Barack Obama bashed Sarah Palin over the death panels.
