Was Rep. Joe Wilson responding in kind?
American Thinker ^ | 09/10/09 | William Tate

The Democrats' Big Media comrades are circling around South Carolina's representative Joe Wilson like vultures over fresh road kill. When Barack Obama claimed during his Wednesday night set piece that his health industry power grab would not cover illegal aliens, Wilson shouted, "You lie!"

In doing so, Wilson showed unusual common sense in noticing that the emperor's clothes seemed somewhat lacking, but he also showed....

"Obama was calling some of the people seated before him, liars, in front of a national television audience; they will never be afforded the same venue to rebut the charges." Responding in kind? You bet!

Just prior to Joe's brief moment of clarity, there was a Zero line that generated a group "boo" from the back benchers that nobody cares to mention.

When you call Communists “liberals” it legitimizes them. The time has come to stop it. To stop the charade , stick your head out the window and say “I’m mad as hell and I’m not going to take it anymore.”

Through the magic of youtube, here is the boo clip: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hdPHGDS3ytc

At 1:12 there are general groans from the Republicans, then at 1:18 Joe's lone "you lie" statement.

The only disgrace in which Wilson involved himself was his apology.

The only question in my mind was “ Was he lying? “
If he was ( which, lets face it, we know the answer to that one” , he needs to get called on it to his face IN FRONT of national television.
If a lie was stated in congress by our president, our representatives had better do their job and protect our national interests.
Wheres the outrage about the fact that Obama was lying? Or at least terribly uninformed about a matter of national importance?

He should have yelled, “And you lie again!”

Instead he apologizes. Phooey on this Wilson character. We are at war! And I ain’t talking about islamists either.
