Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) and Democratic leaders are calling on Rep. Joe Wilson (R-S.C.) to apologize for heckling President Obama as a liar.
Wilson shouted to the president "you lie" after Obama said illegal immigrants would not benefit from health insurance coverage from the reform bill. Obama glared disgustedly in the direction the remark came from, as did Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) and Vice President Joe Biden.
House Democratic Whip James Clyburn (D-S.C.) called Wilson's outburst "embarrassing," while McCain said it was "totally disrespectful" and that there was "no place for it in that setting or any other."
McCain said Wilson "should apologize for it immediately."

McCain should stick it up his pooper.
No, no regrets, you nailed it (as all of your positive replies show). I particularly liked your enormous bold font. Oh, it caught my eye, alright!! (Apparently the mod’s, too, but whatev.) :)
You are an embarrassment to the people of Arizona and the main reason I have stopped contributing to the Republican Party. My cash now goes to Sarah! So should the Pubbie support.
Head for Sedona, kick back a few of your wife's Buds and RETIRE!!!

And part of the “Civilian National Security Force”, maybe?
Who else would fire on Americans, and be loyal to Obama?
Wilson should say this and no more. No apology, just the reason why he said what he said.
shame on you john
FU McCain!
You POS.....I am sorry I ever gave you a nickel to run for Prez.
I heard an awful lot of shouting and calling people liars coming from the podium. Is anybody going to ask that guy to apologize? Anyone? Anyone? McCain?
Should Wilson apologize? Well, I suppose the real question is: Was Wilson’s assertion accurate?
That’s one the media certainly won’t touch.
And McCain, it would be nice if he were half as quick to defend conservatives and their causes, as well as his former running mate. Better yet, McCain, just shut up, will ya?
Trying to recall the last time I cared about Maverick’s opinion.
McCain should shut his mouth!! Wilson spoke the only truth in that room tonight!
McCain, you should apologize for wasting the time and money I gave to your campaign last year. Shame on you Juan McAmnesty.
Lol. I love that one!
I saw Lindsey want to clap tonight but only rubbed his hands when those seated near him weren’t going to clap.
True story, Mermaid.
Just sent McBlame a nice e-mail the body of it follows...
You have no right to demand that Joe Wilson SC apologize for calling Mr. Obama a liar. If you recall Mr. Obama was busy calling those who oppose his bill liars. Review the tapes. At least one member had the balls to call him out. You might have won the election if you had Joe Wilsons guts. Mr Obama is a liar, and a socialist, and if Mr Obama is going to call people out, then the ‘ONE’ deserves no less. For God’s sake man he is the president not a KING. Man UP!

Geez.......???? I should have told him to tell his daughter to chill out too...
