Wilson apologizes: 'I let my emotions get the best of me'
CNN ^ | September 9, 2009 | CNN

“This evening I let my emotions get the best of me when listening to the President’s remarks regarding the coverage of illegal immigrants in the health care bill. While I disagree with the President’s statement, my comments were inappropriate and regrettable. I extend sincere apologies to the President for this lack of civility.”

He did not apologized for ‘speaking the truth’.

He apologized for breaking the House rules.

Can anyone give a clue as to about how far into the speech Joe popped up with “You lie!”

It burns into one's consciousness does it not? I have been left scarred by the left... and I will never stop fighting them or accept them. I have no forgiveness left in me for them... for evil, and they are evilcrats, cannot be forgiven... evil can only be defeated.

State of the Union 2006... they did a hell of a lot more to Bush than Wilson did tonight.

So appropriate. Thanks for posting it.

Tonight's lecture was as amusing as watching someone shovel manure into the back of a pick-up. Lots and lots of manure.

I’m still catching up here — exactly what did he say that he had to apologize for?

Does anyone have a link to his (Wilson’s) full remarks off-hand? Going to do a search now... :)

I agree that many do not see the takeover taking place before our very eyes, but look at your tagline.

Wilson speaking truth to power help break the CONTROL Hussein was trying to maintain tonight. His outburst derailed Dear Leader and woke everyone in the room up, including the undecideds at home.

Now whether they go back to sleep again, that’s another story.

The Dems and Commies are trying to control whether members of our families will live or die in the near future.

The undecideds better wake the heck up, and fast.

We are in agreement on much, I think.

My husband thought someone yelled out “BullSh!t” at first. Boy, we really would have been cheering that. Anyway, Nancy Prevaricator’s look of indignation was priceless.

Undecideds will now go and read the bill and go to places like factcheck.org and see that obama was lying... and we will have scored another victory in a long string of battles yet to come. Remember... a LIAR can never prove that he is not lying... but a LIAR once proved a LIAR... can never be believed again. That is the more important lesson of tonight.

I agree totally.

Mr Wilson acted well beneath himself and the office he occupies.

A simple rule Mr. Wilson..respect the office.

The best thing that happened to Obama tonight was Wilson yelling “lie”

It is the story, instead of his boring droing speech filled with half truths

Well said, LLS, and the truth.

Zero has brought shame on the Presidency and America with his international apologies for our nation, his support for our enemies, and his trampling of the Constitution.

And that’s the truth also.
