Hackers Imperil Wilson Campaign Web Site - Political News - FOXNews.com

Quote:
Sources close to the South Carolina congressman charge that hackers have blitzed his campaign Web site JoeWilsonforCongress.com with a series of attacks that periodically shut down the page.
The leftists just can't stand the fact this guy called obama on his lies. They also can't stand the thought of free speech and the idea that Joe is outraising his opponent.

The leftist must remember - conservatives outnumber them at a rate of 2-1.

I think it's great. I wish it were like the 1800's in Congress. When one politician disagreed with another they often had fist fights. Sometimes they dueled.

That is the message I want kids to get. Politicians are thugs and it is a dishonorable profession.

What Wilson did was nothing. A little rude maybe. I's like to see more of these guys calling each other liars.

Clinton respected the place and event?

You know Reagan never took off his jacket in the Oval Office out of respect.

See how that's different?

Oh absolutely ... those two little words .. "You Lie" .. saved the taxpayers hundreds of thousands of dollars, because it changed/added a much needed provision to the legislation overnight. If Joe hadn't have spoken out with those two little words, our legislators would have argued the immigration point for months and months on end.

Old school politics is an exciting and a productive thing, all at the same time. ..

If they are good parents they will teach them to respect the country and protest against any president that has such disrespect for the conntry that he will openly lie to the people on facts easily found out.

True.

And hows come dems aren't labeled with the racist charge on this one. Obama himself said he was denying care to illegals.

When people on the right want illegals to learn English or pay taxes they are called racists.

When Dems deny them healthcare, and leave them to die in the streets, they get a pass.

It could even be construed that Wilson was the only one actually paying attention! Since nobody else reacted as they should have to protest any lying.
