House is back from recess (cspan1) - here comes Wilson's "spanking".

[lamp_shade]

[Bozita]

1. Tuning in now. Thank you.

[trueblue2007]

2. Spank him on PUBLIC TV. In front of the world

Pants down....Pants up. I don't care. This is what Wilson deserves.

[cali]

3. let's make this the live thread.. Maybe you could change your title

to reflect that?

[PearliePoo2]

4. If Wilson had apologized to the house.........

THAT WOULD HAVE ENDED THE MATTER! Hoyer has said this over and over.

[goclark]

5. Keep it kicked please

[Warpy]

6. Hoyer is sure missing the point

It wasn't a spontaneous outburst. It was planned.

How do we know? Consider Wilson's voting history. He did vote to extend care to undocumented workers. He knew Obama wasn't lying.

He just wanted to take the focus off the speech and succeeded admirably.

Hoyer is an idealistic fool if he doesn't realize this.

In fact, I think sappy idealism is probably what's plaguing most of those old boys.

I hope there are primary challengers who have better grips on reality.

[Bonobo]

7. Uh-oh...

"democrat". What an ass.

[nini]

9. Yep... I noticed that too

it's so lame.

[ShortnFiery]

8. Hoyer makes this sound like a dirge.

:boring:

Now they're slobbering all over each other and the right is deflecting on the "here and now."

Ooooh "Democrat leadership." That hurts! :silly:

[cali]

10. I'm not overly fond of Hoyer, but he's handling this correctly.

[ShortnFiery]

12. On that I do agree with you. Just the "democratIC" in me wishes he'd behave

harsher. :silly:

[trueblue2007]

13. African American man IS A PUBLIC SCHOOL TEACHER. He says congress sets AN EXAMPLE

HE IS 100% RIGHT.

PROPER DIGNITY AND RESPECT...Whether you like it or not!
Right on.

[PearliePoo2]

15. Rep. Clyburn S.C. (D)

His child also teaches school in Wilson's district.

[ShortnFiery]

19. I was addressing Hoyer's dull tone.

But thanks for caring. :eyes:

[lapfog_1]

11. I wish they would vote to put his head on a pike at the base

Capitol Steps. Start lining the mall with them. Sort of like the British and the South Gate of London Bridge.

Or at least make him wear a dunce cap for a day. Nah, probably too close to that KKK hood he has back in his office.

[goclark]

14. Please tell us cube rats what's happening

[Beaverhausen]

16. Boner calling it partisan

asshole!

[ShortnFiery]

17. Here comes Hic! The Boner.

:P

[Beaverhausen]

18. OH my god he is going to cry

[ShortnFiery]

23. Hey, he's getting all upset ... "No! No! No!" yes, he's working it! eom

[Bozita]

21. His skin is the same color as the leather on the bench behind him.

Looks like "saddle brown" to me.

[ShortnFiery]

26. He's a graduate of the George Hamilton School of Tanning.

:wow:

[SIMPLYB1980]

20. Linky.

http://www.c-span.org/Watch/C-SPAN_wm.aspx

[derby378]

22. Thanky for linky!

:hi:

[SIMPLYB1980]

30. No problem.

:hi:

[derby378]

24. Boner: House engaged in "some witch hunt, some partisan stunt"

Apparently there were some boos from the peanut gallery. The public has been admonished to keep their mouths shut.

[PearliePoo2]

25. Boner is starting to shriek

says it's setting a bad precedent and wasting time. Partisan stunt.
Speaker is warning the House to behave now.
(must be some snarling and snarking going on...gee I wonder by whom?)

[nini]

28. all of which could be avoided if he just would have apologized like a man

..

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

53. Sounded like the result of a 5 Martini lunch

[nini]

27. Clyburn is ready and getting them good!

LOL

[ShortnFiery]

29. Yes, "I would REMIND the leader..." Taking Boehner to the woodshed.

all I ever asked is that WE receive a similar statement of contrition. :thumbsup:

Rut Roo Nasty old Eric Cantor is coming up ... did he bring his teabags?

[JBoy]

31. Eric Cantor probably got a lot of wedgies in school as hall monitor.

[nini]

34. I can't stand that asshole

he's talking about what Obama said the other night but how would he know since he was texting the whole time

They'd be funny if they weren't so full of crap.

[ShortnFiery]

39. Cantor had nothing GOOD to say about Obama Friday night.

Holy Shit! Now this republican rep says "Joe Wilson has never been heard saying a negative thing about anyone?" I wonder if she'd pass a lie detector test?

Liar, thy name is Republican.

[nini]

55. wrong place

.

[ShortnFiery]

36. No doubt, he's a sniveling little weasel type right-wing republican. He even spoke to

the small smattering of tea-baggers gathered in D.C. this past Friday night. I'm ashamed to claim this smarmy man is from our good state of Virginia. :(

[PearliePoo2]

33. Cantor doesn't look like he has any teabags..

[ShortnFiery]

32. Cantor (R-VA) is asking for "a reset" using Obama's desire for bipartisanship.

Too funny! When they are all fired up, partisanship is wonderful for the Teabaggers (including Cantor), but when they get in TROUBLE, they cry for bipartisanship. Hypocrite!

[nini]

35. They're still pushing that lie crap

Jesus mother of God - they still amaze me with this bullshit.

[ShortnFiery]

37. They continue to spew the same LIES and claim it to be truth. eom

[mike_c]

38. I couldn't take if for more than about two minutes....

Imagine the dumbest, most time-wasting drone of a faculty meeting ever-- that's what every day in Congress sounds like. Parsing words to within an inch of utter nonsense for the sake of argument. What a bunch of gas bags!

[ShortnFiery]

43. Yes, I'm losing IQ points every time a republican speaks.

The stupid HURTS. :(

[Control-Z]

40. blah, blah, blah

we're republicans...we can do anything we want...we are wonderful...everyone makes mistakes...i know this man...illegal imigration...republicans can do no wrong...we are wonderful...

[quiet.american]

49. Yep. That about sums up their position, no matter what. nt

[nini]

41. If they're so worried about this being a waste of time

then why don't they quit lying and stalling so all this can be done?


???

[graywarrior]

42. Everyone KNOWS Wilson is a douchebag!

And suddenly health care is an important issue.

[SIMPLYB1980]

44. Can we get a Democrat to talk or are all the republicans

getting to speak in defense of Wilson? Not quite sure of the rules of order. Also isn't it so funny we now have republicans calling for civility after all the bullshit over the last 8 years. LMAO! Can defending incivility by decrying incivility cause a rift in the space time continuum?

[graywarrior]

45. They all LOVE Obama right now.

[ShortnFiery]

46. Republicans wishing for civility?

Nothing could be more disingenuous. :thumbsdown:

[PearliePoo2]

51. I think the Democrats are managing their time and holding back.

to let the RePukes blow their wad first.
The Pukes are all over the place and changing the subject.
Talking about everything except what they should be.

[berni_mccoy]

47. Seriously? It's 9/11 GOD 9/11 BLESS 9/11 AMERICA 9/11 AND 9/11 JOE 9/11 WILSON 9/11 !

[Control-Z]

48. Fuck you,

Candice Miller

[nini]

57. no kidding.. being in the military doesn't give you carte blanche to do what he did

She was especially annoying.

[Control-Z]

50. Fuck you,

Mike Pence

[Bobbie Jo]

52. Geez...let me know when the repukes are finished whining...

and I'll tune back in.

[PearliePoo2]

54. Here comes the "wrap-up" by Rep. Clyburn.

There is time for discussion on health care and other things.
Time for us to teach by example that what we say to our children, there are things you do and don't do.
Accepted forms of proper contrition are needed. Hope this body today demonstrates proper decorum.
Silnce gives consent.

[nini]

56. A sign of a good education is good manners

:thumbsup:
