So is this just grandstanding, or does this really hurt Wilson in some way?

Sorry, I don’t know the rules of the House of Reps....

Probably the same traitors who applauded when Obama called Sarah Palin a liar

Don't worry, we will vote to discipline congress over its craven deference to notorious liars. Next November.

How do I formally rebuke the House? They are a laughing stock of lying thieves. Perhaps 1-2 dozen are legislators, the rest are pure politician.

I don’t, in my first thought was exactly what an earlier poster stated It’s a badge of honor.

If I were him I’d get a button that reads “censured” and wear it proudly to every session. A man is known by his enemies.
