Seize the moment. The most disgraceful public uttering EVER, was Congressman Joe Wilson's

Directly and confrontational to President Obama.

"You Lie!"

Alito mouthed something inappropriate, but Wilson was the A-hole who yelled during the SOTU

That was breath-taking incivility and he should have been drummed out of the House the next day. Instead, he became a "Tea Party" hero of sorts and a right wing celebrity. Assholes. All of them.
