Saint Nicholas was made to apologize the next day for slapping the heretic Arius in the face at the Council of Nicea. Doesn’t change the fact that that guy was a liar too.

He’s already apologized.

The apology doesn't matter. He stole some of the limelight from Obuma last night in front of a national TV audience. That's what counts.

House of Commons where

In Britain, they at least know that the PM IS NOT ROYALTY ! ! ! Perhaps the one good thing about having a king/queen/whatever. Personally, I think GUILLOTINE is about right for royalty.

Here, the media and the boot-licking commie congress think zero is THE EMPEROR OF THE WORLD. How dare you intrude your low-class rabble representatives on his effin'g HIGHNESS LORD (illegal alien himself) ZERO ! ! !

That site demands my phone numbers in order to donate.
So if I cannot get someone to accept $100 without my phone
number as a prerequisite I may have to bow out.

If we had one Rep and one Senator with his balls, we could have questioned Obama’s credentials during the Jan 5 joint session.
But NOOOOOOOOOOO
That was the price for NOT speaking out.

For one second a Republican stood up against Obama, and the rest of the Republicans should have backed him up. Obama said he was going to CALL OUT THOSE WHO LIE ABOUT WHAT'S IN THE BILL, and Wilson called him out. Obama called every Republican in the chamber a liar and they just sat there and applauded. They have learned nothing from these Town Hall meetings and the Tea Parties. THE TIME FOR CIVILITY IS OVER! The GOP should have stopped Obama in his tracks and turned the session into one big Town Hall Meeting and challenged OBAMA'S LIES.

But they didn't. And then Wilson issued an apology. What a bunch of spineless wimps.

Obmama's speech was a farce and a waste of taxpayer money and precious congressional resources. He had no business calling a special session of Congress over some stupid health care proposal. We are on a two front war and our economny is sinking faster than the Titanic and he calls a joint session to pass a resolution that will punch another hole in the hull in the ship of state.

For one second I cheered as Joe Wilson called out Obama. Then came the apology. Now the story is that Wilson apologized, and the implication will be that Obama spoke the truth.

What a wasted day yesterday turned out to be.

Yes it requires phone numbers but that is probably per FEC regulations.

He apologized for where and when he said it, which is probably appropriate (we don’t operate like the British Parliament does) but he did NOT apologize for what he said.

It was not spineless to apologize but I am disappointed in his fellow Republicans for not sticking up for what he said!

Actually, I think that this was a pretty smart move on the Republican's part.

BO gave a landmark speech last night. A president addressing both houses of Congress - outside of the SotU - happens one time a decade, maybe. And frankly, the parts of the speech that I saw looked to be well-received.

So, instead of all the talking heads yammering about how BO makes their legs tingle and how brilliant his Health Care proposals are....maybe turning the public opinion around....they're needing to manufacture outrage about some no-name member of the House who dared to speak the truth and call out the president.

BO is off-message. Again. This is great, pass the popcorn.

Watch the news. The story is going to be the apology and not Obama’s lie. By apologizing at all, he has, by implication, tacitly admitted that Obama spoke the truth.

Right! I’m sure that Adams, Jefferson, Franklin, Hancock believed in decorum for Goerge III and the crown.

Rules were made to be broken, right?

Funny, I watched & listened to the clip and then went back to watch it again and it’s ‘down’ now.

nobody dares call a spade a spade.

That would be racist.
