“Joe Wilson took our state's reputation to a new low. I thought Mark Sanford had taken it as low as it could go, but this is beyond the pale," Clyburn said.
"Joe is very confrontational," he added. "He held his first town hall meeting three blocks from my house at my kid's high school. Now why would he have this town hall meeting in my congressional district, three blocks from my house in my kid's high school? It's not in his district.
That's the kind of guy Joe Wilson is. He loves confronting people. So he was confronting the president, just as he was confronting me."

Pelosi received 3 times that from health professionals, also note the top contributor is lawyers. Hmmmmm no malpractice reform included in Dems plan, coincidence?
----------------------------------------
Harry Reid received almost 7 times that form health professionals and they are fifth on his list:
Lawyers/Law Firms$1,433,431
Casinos/Gambling$756,063
Real Estate$464,211
Securities & Investment$453,660
Lobbyists$418,691
Health Professionals$346,050
LOL... I wonder how many Democrats receive the most from lawyers.
You do understand that not all lawyers are medical malpractice lawyers don't you. In fact, I would guess that they are probably less than 1% of all lawyers do medical malpractice.
Grand total is $233,912,817, I can't find another industry in that ballpark. Health Professionals, Insurance, Lobbyists and Pharmaceuticals combined do not equal that total.
If you look at the past results of previous years, you will see that in the past the four have contributed more to the republican party. They put their money on the winner. They are neither democrat or republican. They buy both with the same ease.
whatever your opinion there has always been a sense of decorum when the President is addressing Congress in chambers. This isn't the British House of Commons ala Prime Minister's questions time.
But that is so much more fun to watch...It is fun and funny.
and it seems to work over there, correct me if I am inaccurate.

There is nothing inherently wrong with being confrontational. As long as it is at appropriate times!
I guess he was trying to keep up with the Democrats that act stupidly all the time. Wilson had nothing to appoligize for since hussein obama was lying.
President Obama accused Bill Clinton of peddling "bald-faced lies" (http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2009/06/02/obama-accused-clinton-telling-bald-faced-lies/ - broken link) during the presidential campaign, according to a new book on the 2008 race.

good post.
Obama is not being truthful. He misleads, hints and sugggests in order to direct the audience into what he wants them to believe. It's about time somebody "called him out" on it (to use his own words from last night).
A direct approach is what's needed. The Republicans for the most part have been very concilliatory and non-confrontational and it gets them nowhere.
