Really, wth does “admonish” mean??? They really should be looking at Rangel and Frank. If McCain and Graham vote for this, I will contribute to their primary competitors. Tired of GOP eating their own!!!!!!

National attention from the heckling episode has money pouring into Wilson's campaign treasury and that of his 2010 Democratic challenger. Wilson had raised more than $700,000 since the incident as of Friday, according to the National Republican Congressional Committee. His opponent, Rob Miller, had received more than $1 million from 25,000 donors nationwide, said his campaign manager, Lindsay Zoeller.

This is a lie. The WaPo, also being dishonest, tried to play this game. Miller is now at a little over $1 million but that includes money left over from the unsuccessful 2008 campaign against Wilson and money raised since after the election. This is again a spin by the Dems, via a compliant media, to give the impression that Miller got a bigger windfall since a few days ago. It is simply not true and all you need to know is how this source, WaPo, NYT, etc. is not crowing about Miller "crushing" Wilson in fund raising since the incident because they can't. They can claim 25,000 donors nationwide (nice even number for the politically clueless out there) but notice how they don't mention what has been raised in the last 48 hours or tell you what percentage is from out of state.

It kind of reminds of a rinky dink restaurant claiming they are world famous because some couple from Australia ate there once.

Democratic leaders are planning a House vote early next week to admonish Republican Rep. Joe Wilson if he does not apologize on the House floor for yelling ''You lie!'' during President Barack Obama's health care address to Congress.

Instead of jumping all over him for being a little rude, it would be nice if House of Representatives took a look at and commented on the substance of Wilson's outburst.

Did our President actually lie, or deliberately mislead?

What aspect of Obamacare was the POTUS being less than forthright?

Why was Wilson so compelled to make an outburst? Was he a victim of lack of bipartisanship, that is, of not being invited to talk about his input to Obamacare? Was he totally frustrated with the complex and ever-changing legislation, with the lack of communication with the Marxists?

If Wilson was correct, then should Nancy Pelosi, et al. explain themselves better and apologize to Rep. Wilson and the American people?
