I'm astonished and quite disturbed that about half way through the speech some ugly republican yelled "lie" during Obama's speech. Obama had said reform wouldn't cover illegal immigrants. Republicans proved themselves the fools tonight. Representative Joe Wilson of South Carolina is the heckler. If you're on Twitter, here's his address: @CongJoeWilson. Phone: (202) 225-2452 / (803) 939-0041. What's wrong with South Carolina politicians? Poor Joe's website just crashed. Wilson will be up against Rob Miller in 2010.
GOP ought to know that tea parties are the place for ugly behavior, not a president's speech to Congress. Watch Obama's eyes in the video. He gets mad but keeps it together.
