'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."

Mccain is a douche bag. Obama called his opponents liars tonight when he said they should stop spreading lies about his plan. He can apologize first.

No, no regrets, you nailed it (as all of your positive replies show). I particularly liked your enormous bold font. Oh, it caught my eye, alright!! (Apparently the mod’s, too, but whatev.) :)

I can't believe so many people keep McCain campaign stickers on their cars. At least by now we all know what Obama is, but McCain is able to pull the same two face shit year after year after year after year...... Take the stickers off and replace it with a picture of Ronald Reagan instead.

Shut up McCain.

You are an embarrassment to the people of Arizona and the main reason I have stopped contributing to the Republican Party. My cash now goes to Sarah! So should the Pubbie support.

Head for Sedona, kick back a few of your wife's Buds and RETIRE!!!

And part of the “Civilian National Security Force”, maybe?

Republicans put forward Heller Amendment, which would have put in an enforcement mechanism (applying the existing SAVE program).
Democrats voted against this on a party line vote, killing it in the ways and means committee.

Wilson should say this and no more. No apology, just the reason why he said what he said.

I heard an awful lot of shouting and calling people liars coming from the podium. Is anybody going to ask that guy to apologize? Anyone? Anyone? McCain?

Should Wilson apologize? Well, I suppose the real question is: Was Wilson’s assertion accurate?

That’s one the media certainly won’t touch.

And McCain, it would be nice if he were half as quick to defend conservatives and their causes, as well as his former running mate. Better yet, McCain, just shut up, will ya?

Never apologize for the truth!

McCain, you should apologize for wasting the time and money I gave to your campaign last year. Shame on you Juan McAmnesty.

I saw Lindsey want to clap tonight but only rubbed his hands when those seated near him weren’t going to clap.

Just sent McBlame a nice e-mail the body of it follows...

You have no right to demand that Joe Wilson SC apologize for calling Mr. Obama a liar. If you recall Mr. Obama was busy calling those who oppose his bill liars. Review the tapes. At least one member had the balls to call him out. You might have won the election if you had Joe Wilsons guts. Mr Obama is a liar, and a socialist, and if Mr Obama is going to call people out, then the ‘ONE’ deserves no less. For God’s sake man he is the president not a KING. Man UP! John Danforth Forney, Texas

Geez.......???? I should have told him to tell his daughter to chill out too...

John
