You're right, he did cast only himself in a poor light. I would expect if a dem did this to a republican president that he would be rightfully chastised by people in his own party & he would then follow-up w/a heart-felt apology. I'm not sure how heart-felt this guy's apology will be, but regardless at least he's doing it.
Yes, I agree, it was quick to come out so maybe he means it.
All I know is that Nancy Pelosi looked like Sister Mary Ignatius ready to launch a laser guided ruler of mass destruction! If this dimwit didn't apologize immediately, make a infinite number of acts of contrition, along with a boat load of Hale Mary's he's going to find his office reduced to the size of a page boy's closet.
And he still might risk facing a Congressional reprimand.
yeah, she did have that expression on her face. it was priceless!

BWAAHAAHAA! You almost made me spit out my beloved red wine w/that first sentence dangit! Although, I think this is probably much ado about nothing. Yes of course he shouldn't have yelled that out but I don't see it being serious enough to be reprimended.
ROBERT GIBBS:
But does it really matter if 'he means it'?
If the President has the podium and the world is tuned in...just save your heated opinions for later.
Have some self control. Sheesh. This isn't Taiwan (as I've stated earlier) and people aren't watching the presidential address to hear Joe Wilson's opinion.

I'm not sure what a reprimand even means but apparently such an outburst even during a regular session of Congress would rate such discipline.
My favorite story from the incident was Bad Boy Rahm going up to the Republican leadership and telling them that he expected a prompt apology ending with a terse, "you have my number."
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.

Did you see Biden's glare?
