WASHINGTON — Vice President Joe Biden says a Republican congressman's outburst during President Barack Obama's health-care speech Wednesday night "demeaned the institution."
South Carolina Rep. Joe Wilson shouted "You lie" after Obama said extending health care to all Americans would not mean insuring illegal immigrants.
Appearing on ABC's "Good Morning America" Thursday, Biden said the incident made him "embarrassed for the chamber and a Congress I love."

If there is anyone who could be called an expert on ‘embarrassing’ I guess it would be ol’ Joe Biden “King of the Gaffe”.

Wilson spoke the truth.
Funny how it is ok for Obama to call everybody else liars on a nationwide stage, but not ok for someone else to call him out on it.

But of course, when Obammie the Commie gave the middle finger to an opponent by scratching his cheek with it, that was not embarrassing and disrespectful.
That was hip and youthful.

The truth can be very embarrassing at times, Joe.

Appearing on ABC's "Good Morning America" Thursday, Biden said the incident made him "embarrassed for the chamber and a Congress I love." It ruined a perfectly good nap for Joe.

So did Joe ever mention anything about the democrats smuggling Klan Pink clowns into Bush speeches for the express purpose of disrupting?
