Wilson campaign: Fundraising breaks $1 million, passes Miller

A source on Rep. Joe Wilson's campaign says his fundraising has broken $1 million -- and surpassed that of his Democratic rival, Rob Miller -- since his outburst of "You lie!" during President Obama's address to Congress Wednesday. ---Snip--- Still, Wilson's success -- despite having been criticized by Republican leaders -- represents the power of the conservative grassroots to reward politicians who confront the White House in the sharpest terms.

Contribution to Joe Wilson from Canada.

Those puke criminals in the WH affect our future also.
It just makes me sick to watch this s##t go on.

So go for it Joe! Our weapon is TRUTH.

I bet the first Congress Critter to call Obama a Usurper or illegal alien to his face on TV gets at least 5 million!
Call him out.

[Inclines to the Right]

Yeah, we need more Wilsons AND we need zero Harry Reid’s so if anyone can give 10 Bucks for Tark.....please help Nevada (and the U.S.) get rid of Dingy Harry.

Yesterday (Sept. 12) I was on my way to the DC Tea Party when I was forced to listen to CNN in an airport...they were laughing and saying Wilson was being punished because he had only raised $200,000 while his Dem opponent had received more than a $1 million. I had earlier read that, as of the night before, Wilson had raised $800,000, so I knew that was a lie.

But like all CNN lies, it goes uncontested.

The shouting wasn't for yelling insults. It was the
TRUTH!
Something you liberals really have a hard time dealing with. Just because there was passive language in the bill to persuade idiots like you that it's okay to exclude illegals, there wasn't any enforcement. Something you liberals are used too, since you've been spoiled all your life and really never worked for anything of substance.
If you really want the truth, go read the bill yourself, put on your thinking cap, and not listen to your kool-aid talking points. Quit being a political hack and start standing up for what the truth is.

Screw the Republican “leaders”.

marking to contribute when I get home from work.....

I sent Joe $100 this morning, and asked that he not apologize anymore.

[coloradomomba]

I have been getting emails from MoveOn asking for contributions to Millers campaign.

$oro$ is going to bail out Miller.

Yup. First thing I thought of, too. But that happily doesn't necessarily mean Miller WINS the next election. Soros once said he'd give his entire fortune to see that Kerry took the job away from Bush but he was smart enough to know the odds were against him and he was right about that.

Let them blow it on a media campaign with the MSM. They’ll be bankrupt and ignored, not taken seriously at all.

I sent Wilson a little something along with a letter telling him not to apologize any more. He said what needed saying.

[Fudd Fan]

See post #73. It looks and sounds like he does not intend to.

"As a Wilson constituent, I can assure everyone that if Pelosi decides to “censure” Joe, he won’t have to run but one campaign ad: video of Pelosi’s screech."

Plus the ad showing Pelosi and the other thugs behind 0b0z0 when Wilson shouted out the battle cry of 2009/10: You Lie!

[LizardQueen]

I sent him $20 and told him not to apologize either. I also told him that if he called Obama a liar to his face again I’d send him $100 next time LOL.
