“There are also those who claim that our reform effort will insure illegal immigrants. This, too, is false – the reforms I’m proposing would not apply to those who are here illegally,”
“You lie!”
And you’re an idiot who isn’t going to get re-elected now.
Who am I talking about? Well, if you’ve watched anything on the news or the web today, its Rep. Joe Wilson (R-SC), who shouted this at the President of the United States during a speech to Congress on health care last night.
Are we in Mexico? Taiwan? The Philippines? What are you going to do next, start a fistfight? Throw a shoe at the President? Ok, the last one would actually be quite funny. But I think you get the gist of it.
Even the man’s own party has turned on him. Sen. McCain said it was a “totally disgraceful” and he should “apologize immediately”. He did, within 2 hours.
Yeah, don’t expect Joe Wilson to get re-elected next year. I doubt very much that his own party will support him.
