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 apologize for trying to impersonate a conservative?

Maybe if McCain had the guts to call Obummer a liar during the campaign, he actually may have won the election. If anybody should apologize it is Obummer for lying every time he opens his mouth.

As usual, McCain's tripping over himself to be the first one to tonguebathe The Messiah™.

No John, it’s you who should apologize. You are ineffective and have weakened the conservative movement.

‘You lie’: McCain says Wilson ‘should apologize for it immediately’
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Why? For “speaking truth to power”? I don’t think so.
Please retire, McCain!

McCain should apologize for his lousy campaign, and for wasting Sarah Palin’s talent.
