Pelosi agrees to plan to scold Rep. Wilson for 'You lie' outburst

Speaker Nancy Pelosi has agreed the House should vote next week on scolding Rep. Joe Wilson (R-S.C.) for his outburst during President Barack Obama's speech unless he apologies on the floor of the House.

"There was a violation of the rules of the House," said Pelosi spokesman Brendan Daly. "It needs to be resolved by an apology or a resolution."

A Democrat, likely House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer (D-Md.), will introduce a "resolution of disapproval" Monday or Tuesday unless Wilson formally apologizes on the House floor. The House returns Monday.

Did she not just yesterday basically say to ‘move along’ over the issue?

Oh, Nancy, thank you for helping Joe Wilson raise money. We couldn’t’ve done it without you.

If I said what I was really thinking, I’d be banned.

Isn't have to look at Pelosi's face punishment enough? She has to speak too? Joe Wilson should volunteer to be waterboarded instead.

Needs to be settled with an apology?

He DID apologize for speaking out of turn.

What Nancy wants is a retraction of the truth.

Oh no! NOT a “scolding”!

What’s next, a “time out”? A “withering” gaze”? Being sent to bed without his supper?

Yeah, she sure did.

The speaker is such a great leader.

I’m sure Steny Hoyer is making notes on every one of Msd. Pelosi’s moves.

The entire House and Senate needs to boo her all at once. Then recall loudly how the DEMS booed George Bush at the SOTUS. Name names. Oh boy, would that be great.

But I guess it’s OK for Charlie Rangel to be a tax cheat.

Cool. She did take it personal. Thought so based on her expression. Noticed the look in the eyes of Howard Dean in that town hall the other week too. Think they’re getting scared, and that’s good.

Joe should get up there, reassert his charge that Barry lied multiple times, when all hell breaks out in the house by the democrats that will relieve him from having to apologize to a bunch of hypocrites.
