WASHINGTON — Vice President Joe Biden says a Republican congressman's outburst during President Barack Obama's health-care speech Wednesday night "demeaned the institution."
South Carolina Rep. Joe Wilson shouted "You lie" after Obama said extending health care to all Americans would not mean insuring illegal immigrants.
Appearing on ABC's "Good Morning America" Thursday, Biden said the incident made him "embarrassed for the chamber and a Congress I love."

These idiot Democrats need to keep whistling past the graveyard.
re: Yo-Yo: “But don’t rebut the underlying charge, Mr. Vice President”
The Democrats’ problem pushing their healthcare bill through is that opponents study the content of the bill while Democrats study the critics.
I almost fell over laughing at the look on old green-eyed monster Pelosi. I bet her depends got wet!
Good for Joe Wilson. The man was standing up there calling ALL of us liars that have bothered to read and understand his bill.
The man deserves no respect or apology!
“a Congress I love.”
Best Congress money can buy. That’s what you love, Joe. Money and power and getting RE-ELECTED!
Right, Joe Wilson, simply “spoke truth to power” instead of giving his ticket(s) to some screeching Code Pink harpies the way a dim congress critter did when GWB was speaking.
Priceless, you can't make this stuff up.
No, Biden is embarrasing enough for all of Congress: “Stand up, Joe! Let ‘em see you!” Or commenting about he can be found at a restaurant in Wilmington that’s been closed for years!
Just went to the dictionary to look up the word “embarrassing.”
They didn’t bother to put any definition there. They just put up Joe Biden’s picture.
It would take one hell of a LOT to EMBARRASS our elected DC thugocracy. These people don’t seem to be embarrassed by thieves (Rangel et al); traitors (Moran et al); vile little faggots (Fwank et al); arrogant, imperial bitches (Pelosi et al) and the list goes on and on. But then, maybe Biden was RIGHT!! As Wilson correctly called Hussein a LIAR, perhaps only the TRUTH can embarrass politicians!
We can’t continue to sit on our hands and let them get away with what they did to Bush and not get in their faces when they are obviously not telling the truth. He said he was going to call us on it if we distort what’s in the bill, fair enough we will call him on it when he does.
You have to realize that when Communists and their allies, like Joe Biden, make an issue of something. They will be saying the opposite of the truth — or a lie. This was only embarrassing for President Obama, not for the Congressman, who deserves a Congressional Medal of Honor for his one sentence verdict. “Lie!” Nothing shakes up the Commie crowd in Washington like pointing out there lies. They can’t stand the truth.
As if it isn't demeaned by the scumbags within it.
Good thing it was Joe Wilson and not me. I would have stated Barry’s being a liar in more elaborate and colorful terminology.
As for Biden, I would release a statement to the effect that he can kiss my behind.
