Wooohooooo! So much for Congress censuring Joe Wilson! He didn't break the rules! Now if he'd said,

President Obama is the biggest liar on the planet and his pants will cause major wildfires out in California!"--yeah, that would be bad. But "You lie!" not so much. ;-)

I was looking for the “satire” keyword — these days, who can tell?

The only thing Wilson did wrong is apologize.

If only more men in Congress would stand up, maybe we could put the country back into the hands of We The People.

Since these words in quotes are supposed to be specifically banned words or phrases, then Wilson did not violate the rules. He did not call Obummer a “liar”. He only said “you lie”.
I know it may be semantics, but it isn’t any different than the dems saying that Reid can call Bush a liar just because it was not during Bush’s speech or that they can heckle and boo Bush during his speech because they didn’t say the words.

Found this on FoxNews website:
RAW DATA: Text of Wilson Resolution The following is a copy of the House resolution to discipline Rep. Joe Wilson for his outburst during President Obama's address to a joint session of Congress.
"Whereas on September 9, 2009, during the joint session of Congress convened pursuant to House Concurrent Resolution 179, the President of the United States, speaking at the invitation of the House and Senate, had his remarks interrupted by the Representative from South Carolina, Mr. Wilson; and Whereas the conduct of the Representative from South Carolina was a breach of decorum and degraded the proceedings of the joint session, to the discredit of the House:
Now, therefore, be it Resolved, That the House of Representatives disapproves of the behavior of the Representative from South Carolina, Mr. Wilson, during the joint session of Congress held on September 9, 2009."

He's accurate, not innocent. He is being reprimanded under the terms of the Constitution which allows each House to determine their Rules of Conduct. Regardless the spineless GOP never held Dems to the same standards, he did demonstrate disorderly behavior.

He owes nothing to anyone, whatever they demand is worthless. But for the fact that it allows all manner of opportunity for us to point out the utter hypocrisy of Democrats and the fact that 0bama is constantly lying when he makes these speeches, not the least of which, his outrageous defamation of the nation's pediatricians and GP's.

Whatever happens, Wilson is going to come out of this just fine, an emotional outburst is not going to cost him anything. Rather, it is going to make him the most well-funded man running for re-election in 2010.

I wonder if “Manchurian” or “ineligible” is banned.

President Obama is the biggest liar on the planet

Joe Wilson committed a misdemeanor by pointing out a felony.

So booing is o.k.

In accordance with the House Guidelines, I think that Wilson should issue the following apology:

"I am sorry that I said 'You lie' while that nitwit was disgracing the country with his political speech. From now on, I will follow the Democrats' example and simply yell 'boo' whenever that nitwit is speaking."

Rush said Monday that during the LIAR-IN-CHIEF’s speech, that several Dems were taunting Repubs with Fascist fist salutes and such.

Of course, the network news cameras somehow just missed televising those junior high school antics.

This email just in from Joe Wilson.
STAND WITH JOE WILSON DONATIONS TOTAL $1,599,999!

************************************

Dear Jo,

Today, instead of working on the important issues facing our nation, the House of Representatives voted on a partisan “resolution of disapproval” of me. As reported, this is the first time in its history that the House has reprimanded a member for speaking out during a presidential speech in the chamber to a joint session of Congress.

By their actions today the Democratic leadership has proven once again that they would rather play political games on the taxpayer’s dime than work to create jobs or reform health care.

I was able to make a short speech on the House Floor before the official vote. I hope you will watch this video, and make a donation to help me fight back against the liberal Democrats and continue to stand for truth.

The supporters of a government takeover of health care are using my very vocal opposition as an excuse to muzzle the American people who have been outspoken against their risky plan.

Despite this unprecedented partisan assault, I will not stop fighting. I will continue to speak the truth.

Will you please watch this video and make a donation to help me fight back against these partisan attacks?

Proud to stand with you,

Joe Wilson
U.S. Representative
