And here I was hoping we could continue discussing (as a nation) the GOP's freakout over the student speech. I had no idea that the GOP would kick the disrespect and petty dickishness up to a hilarious new level.
Calling the president a liar on TV?
ZOMG!
Way to demonstrate for the whole country just what a bunch of petulant little douchebags you are.
It's like Obama doesn't even have to try - the GOP has whipped itself into such a frenzy that it can't even maintain a semblance of decorum in his presence. They turn into stampy little children, all red-faced and squinty.
Obama should just walk around the Capitol with a camera crew, egging-on the GOP hotheads and lunatics. See if he can get one to take a swing at him.
Update: looks like the guy who will challenge this little pissant has raised over $160,000 on actBlue (and growing by the second) since the speech last night. Goodbye Joe Wilson.
Update 2: Joe Wilson's supporters have put up a donation page to counter the evil liberal challenger. So far, he has raised $170. Goodbye Joe Wilson.
You do understand that 10 years from now we will be ruled by the Gen. Petraeus military junta, don’t you?
And that the 28%-ers will cheer it on (much like I’m sure they did Rep. Wilson (R-Asshat) last night)?
maybe you will be.
i’ll be on the first freight car to Montreal.
I’ll be on the second freight car to Montreal, but the whole time I’ll be thinking, “Obama should’ve just walked around the Capitol with a camera crew, egging-on the GOP hotheads and lunatics. See if he could’ve got one to take a swing at him.”
