Well done, Joe. Had you called a press conference to speak your views, the presstitutes would have ignored you. This way you were heard, as well you should have been. You speak for many of us!

Rep. Joe Wilson (R-SC) apologized Wednesday night to White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel for shouting “You lie!” during President Obama’s healthcare speech before a joint session of Congress.
Emanuel accepted Wilson’s apology on behalf of the president, according to a Democratic source familiar with the call.
In addition to his phone call to Emanuel, Wilson also issued a statement separately, calling his comments “inappropriate and regrettable.”

Preach for the status quo while the moonbats take everything you value and own. Cowering behind decorum is a losing proposition.

SO APOLOGIZE AND ASK THE PRESIDENT TO HAVE A BEER WITH YOU!
SOMEHOW JOE IS ALWAYS MY HERO!!
Hussein *was* lying.So where’s the problem? What...so we’re not allowed to tell the “emperor” that he has no clothes?
Obama controls television. The media will probably just show pictures of him taking out the garbage in his pajamas and talk about a "D" he once received in some high school class.
The problem is that the networks will probably tape future Dem Pres addresses to Congress and show them only after they have edited them.
DON’T APOLOGIZE FOR TELLING THE TRUTH!
“McCain and other republicans ripped the growing spine right out of Joe. They’ll have none of that.”
McCain is scum and has to be delt with! Kick the backstabbing RINO to the curb!
Armed revolution.
If you’re going to have to take it back, next time throw roses or underwear or your motel key. Not your word.
A lady I work with...”Obama Lover”....came in the office this morning...and said

Maybe you should contact Conservative Central and have them revoke my membership.
Relax my friend, this will spark substantive debate in the days to follow. It's a means to end, and one must pay the ferryman first....
It is fast becomming an endangered spicies though.
If I had said that, hell would have been frozen over for a long time begore I apologized.
But as much as it pains me to say it, he did what he had to do.
He, like Sarah Palin , was probably getting more grief from Republicans than he was Democrats.
When one is as cowardly as most of the Republican politicians are, life must be miserable.
In a time of universal deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act. George Orwell
he did a bonehead thing and is, perhaps, a bonehead - there’s a time and a place and this wasn’t it. He has become the news and a sad caricature with which to misconstrue our genuine grievances.
For that, the good woman was ordered removed from the House, if only for a day. She might have escaped that little time-out if she had responded to the speaker's demand for an apology with something other than "If I have offended grubs, I withdraw unconditionally.''

His testicles ascended just as quickly as they descended.
My thoughts exactly. The only lesson the Dems learned from this is that it was too much like an unscripted Joe the Plumber moment and must not be allowed to happen again.
