At this year's SOTU address... will there be another Joe Wilson?

[scheming daemons]

Has he set the precedent now?

After all... after acting like an ass last year during Obama's Health Care address, Wilson ended up being the congressional member who raised the most money in 2009.


I'm thinking that just about every Republican in congress is thinking up how they're going to top Joe Wilson.

Maybe by throwing a tomato?

1. Has it really been a year???

OMG - time flies!

9. No, that happened when Obama gave his insurance pitch to Congress n/t

2. Wilson blew it

he accused Obama of lying for the wrong reason.

He should have got him for support of the public option or for giving us 72 hours access to legislation...

6. Hello.

Welcome to DU! :hi:

[stuart68]

12. thanks !

[scheming daemons]

13. Freeper says what?

I've seen all of your posts, stuart.


You're a god-damned freeper.

The mods haven't caught you yet..... but they will.

[stuart68]

14. thanks, but no

would you prefer I leave now that you have passed judgement.

Let me sum up my posts to save time:
- I believe in conservation but not warming (man-made part)
- I believe in enabling employees (read labor) and am sick an tired of the congress and senate letting them down, aka healthcare, etc. I even believe the head of labor is making a solid smoke screen blaming repubs for the tax on cadillac plans
- I believe airport security is crap and Obama must do something about it, like probably firing Janet N for blowing it several times in several places.

Did I miss somethign ?

Just want to save you time - you accuse me for havign my opinions, but know nothing about me. I have fought (and lost a lucrative job in the process) to allow a former felon keep his job because he paid a price and turned himself around. I've started programs in wealthy areas to have kids from well-off families take food to the poor so they can see what the world is really like. (as a matter of fact, the biggest success for me was one of the kids commented that he expected to see large screen tvs and stereos and was shocked at how three families were foced to live in such a terrible location). I work EVERYDAY to help drive living wages and advance skills of hourly labor. I believe we need to solve immigration and stop giving folks with McMansions cheap gardeners and companies cheaper labor (the fines and embarassment are a calculated/acceptable risk).

That's some of my resume - is it good enough for you ?

Let me know, because I got attacked (instead of debated) on several other threads as well. I am happy to leave if you would prefe a bunch tripe that supports your personal opinions.

Hopefully I can save the mods a little time - feel free to forward this to them.

If you're right, now I know why a lot of the threads here are, frankly, boring. Yeah, me to ! Yeah he sucks ! Yeah you're right the're a-holes, blah, blah, blah....

15. you forgot to mention

[Coventina]

16. Thank you!

:hi:

[stuart68]

17. you're welcome

not sure what you were thanking me for, but I'll take it :)

18. He should have made his accusation

in the proper forum and maintianed the rules of decorum, as per the rules that he agreed to follow. But why would anyone expect a Strom Thurmond mentee to be respectful towards a black president, that might just be giving other illegal brown people too many perks? Actually, he shouldn't even be an elected official, but sometimes there are things that you can count on. Like South Carolina electing a racist into public office. If you live in S.C., I am sorry if I sound judgemental, but I am going by the record not opinion here.

3. There better not be

Stiff penalties should be enacted to stop this from happening once again. Fines or even prison sentences should be in the discussion. This sort of thing hurts progress.

[stuart68]

5. really ?

you must be kidding. How would you justify that ?

[bigwillq]

7. Prison?

:shrug: You serious? Wow.

[AspenRose]

4. I predict the camera will be fixed on him quite a bit during the SOTU

Even if he doesn't say anything

8. Who's the Sergeant of Arms?

S/he should throw any offenders the hell out. There might even be some legal consequences.

10. Republicans can use all that duct tape they bought up for terrah...

on their mouths.

11. The GOP is full of scumbag assholes.

Expect anything. Some rethug wannabe might want to score some
points with Limbaugh. You could be right about the tomato.
I guess we could call him a tairist if he did. :rofl:
