On Countdown Keith Olbermann addressed Rep. Congressman Joe Wilson's outburst where he shouted, "you lie" during President Obama's speech to Congress. Olbermann declared the only thing more offensive and embarrassing than the lack of civility Wilson displayed, is that he was glaringly wrong in a comment that embarrassed the nation.
I frankly don't care that Wilson apologized (sincerity was not a motivating factor) because he shouldn't have said it in the first place. Even John McCain found his outburst disrespectful, stating he should apologize immediately. Republicans all over are giving Wilson the 'thumbs up' for his behavior. Go ahead, be happy for a man who expresses his views in a manner equivalent to that of a 3-year-old. How disappointing.

The Republicans are really taking this to the extreme. It's laughable and very, very sad.
ReplyDeleteLesson of the week: It's too late to 'pologize!
ReplyDeleteVery well said, sister. And to think he's profiting off of this. Bet Kanye wishes he was in the same boat right now.
ReplyDeleteThe fact he is making money off this charade says a lot about the Republican party...
