" The Republican leadership instructed Rep. Joe Wilson (R-S.C.) to call the White House and apologize for his outburst during President Obama's speech, the South Carolina Republican acknowledged today.....(more)"
And that's all I have to say about that whole disgraceful distraction.
The hypocrisy! Where was the out cry against the poor behavior shown to Bush during his last five years. MSM never picked up the story and the public never chastised it.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA...you call THAT a 'boo'?
That was nothing but a murmur.
PAAAAAA-thetic...no matter how embarrassing the GOP buffoons act some boot licker will sift through the footnotes of history to find any remotely related event that MAY POSSIBLY be misconstrued to show the Dems acted 1/4 as stupid as their idols do on a daily basis...
We'll agree to disagree. You have quotes, I give you that. But it wasn't part of the news cycle, it wasn't a talking point on the evening news, Daily Show, The View, KOS, or Huff Post, the outcry wasnt a headline or part of the prime time MSM news rotation. Folks on the left did little to reprimand their side.
how much media attention did the republicans' booing of clinton garner?
it's surprising that dems booing bush got any media coverage at all. the opposition booing when the president addresses congress, right or wrong, is not an uncommon occurrence. heckling is.
I wish hussein obama did not lie during his speech which prompted this response. I am glad Wilson spoke out. All the blame falls on the liar in cheif.
Except that those claiming that the reform covers undocumented workers are the liars. As are all the opponents who have been concocting any number of lies about "death panels" - many of them presented here at C-D by morons.
Do you even pay attention to the news? Every bit of coverage I've seen about Wilson's outburst has included the statement that Wilson was the one lying.
Maybe he's trying to deny it was a premeditated attack orchestrated by some big money backer?
Like the 'Big Pharma' group that funded and organized the town hall hollerers.
Who cares if it's spontaneous Joe? Unless there's some *worse* scenario you're protecting yourself from.
