Hall of Shame: Republicans Without Shame
That’s almost all of them, apparently, based on the behavior of party leaders during the President’s address tonight. First, there was the angry crowd of legislators waving some sort of document…could it be their “plan”? Then there was John Boehner mugging for the camera a face ranging from boredom to disgust. Finally, there was Joe Wilson, R-South Carolina. Joe Wilson, who called out “you lie” when the President said that illegal immigrants would not be covered under health care reform plans. He has been called out by members of his own party, including Sen. John McCain, and has apologized. This type of behavior is inexcusable no matter who is President, and it reveals the deficit of character that is rampant in the GOP today. DailyKos has a way to fight back against this outlandish and childish behavior: donate to his challenger for 2010, Rob Miller ( something my family has already done in the two hour time frame that has elapsed since the speech). Tonight, the entire GOP, courtesy of Joe Wilson and John Boehner, gets inducted into the Hall of Shame.
