Soooooooo frustrating. What’s he apologizing for?

So, now you take what could have been your finest moment and reduce to nothing? Because the apology means nothing to your enemies, you still have to live with the fact that you said it, it can’t be taken back. The only difference is now, your supporters are mad at you too.

Real men do not apologize for stating the truth!

Especially to girly men and a bunch of little bitches in Government, Congress or the White House!

And let me make this clear to all the whiners with Mental Disorders, your nothing but POS, just waiting to come across someone who knows exactly what you are and does not give a damm about your “Political Corruption.”

Harry Reid never apologized for calling President Bush a liar. But then Harry Reid is both classless and clueless.

Who has the link to the Supreme Court decision that says illegals have access to gov’t provided health care programs? Someone posted it in one of the threads last night, and now I can’t find it.

In England they yell out in the House of Commons when it is perceived the person with the floor is lying and Ozero is lying if his mouth is moving.
Why is it in bad taste to call this punk a liar when he is in fact lying?
More of the pubbies should have stood on their seats and yelled out LIAR.

I think it was smart to apologize here since it was an inappropriate outburst for that forum.

THAT BEING SAID...

I’m glad he said it. He was right...it is a lie. I tweeted him and thanked him for speaking for the rest of us who were yelling the same thing at our TVs.

You know what this is like?

It’s like when an attorney asks a leading question to a witness or adds commentary that he knows will be objected to...but simultaneously knows that people can’t UNHEAR something once it’s been said, even if a judge tells them to disregard the comment.

Likewise... we’ve heard this now. And like Palin’s “death panel” comment, we can’t unhear it.

You can’t unring a bell.

And Americans now have a reason to look into the possibility that illegals would in fact be covered.

Consider for a moment that a GOP amendment...the Heller Amendment... that would ban illegals was struck down on party lines. If illegals were not to be covered, then why vote it down?

Speaking of which...

People who use Twitter… retweet this:

@mbhouse For those condemning @CongJoeWilson and saying he was lying, I have two words for you: HELLER AMENDMENT. http://bit.ly/CkRgk

I don’t know why, but what popped into my head was:

“John Adams would not have apologized.”

He would had stood his ground because he spoke the truth.

What is this guy, some kind of dick?

WTF is he apologizing about, being the only pansy assed country clubber in the GOP who grew a tiny pair for a few seconds?

Screw the commie in chief and that insane botox faced imbecile sitting behind him.

Joe Wilson did break civil protocol for an event such as this and he should apologize, but only for style and not for substance, and he should make that point very clear, which sadly, he isn’t.

Dear President Obama. I’m sorry you lie. I’m sorry I stated the obvious, too.

3. Always wear gloves at a crime scene.

6. Never say you're sorry.
7. Always be specific when you lie.
8. Never take anything for granted.
9. Never go anywhere without a knife.
11. When the case is finished, let it go.
12. Never date a co-worker.
15. Always work as a team.
16. It's better to seek forgiveness than ask permission.
17. Never be unreachable.
18. Never involve lawyers, things will turn nasty.
22. Never interrupt during an investigation.
23. Never mess with a Marine's coffee if you want to live.
26. Never apologize -- it's a sign of weakness.
38. Your case, your lead.
