From his website today:
Stand with me against liberal attacks
Today I need your help more than ever before. I’ve been under attack by the liberal left for months because of my opposition to their policies, especially government-run healthcare. They’ve run commercials in my home district and flooded my office with phone calls and protestors. They’ve done everything they can to quiet my very vocal opposition to more government interference in our lives. Now, it’s gotten even worse.
But I will not stop fighting against their policies that will only lead to more government interference, more spending, and higher deficits.
Will you stand with me today by making a donation to my campaign? If you do, I’ll be able to fight back against the attacks by the liberal left. . .
. . . I am also frustrated by this, but watching my Democratic colleagues in Congress scoff at the protests of their constituents has made me even more infuriated. Unfortunately I let that emotion get the best of me and I reacted by speaking out during the President’s speech. I should not have disrespected the President by responding in that manner.
But I am not sorry for fighting back against the dangerous policies of liberal Democrats. America’s working families deserve to have their views represented in Washington, and I will do so with civility. But I will not back down. . . .

Yeah, old Addison ("Joe") is real contrite, all right. He's sorry he didn't think of insulting the president during a speech to Congress during the State of the Union - he could have had lots of money from his fascist, racist supporters before now. "Working families" my liberal Democrat arse. He doesn't give a damn about families, working or not. Just like the rest of them. Anyway, censor the hell out of him, House. They can't let this stand.
