joe wilson: No more apologies
censure his ass

CNN) -- Rep. Joe Wilson said Sunday he will not apologize again for yelling out that President Obama lied during the president's speech to Congress last week.
"I am not going to apologize again," the South Carolina Republican said on "FOX News Sunday" when asked about pending disciplinary steps against him by the Democratic-controlled House of Representatives.

Wilson said he already apologized to Obama and that the president accepted it. However, he insisted that Obama "was misstating the facts," and that Democratic leaders in the House were "playing politics" by continuing to focus on the issue.

House Democrats plan to censure Wilson if he refuses to apologize on the House floor this week.

4. Does this mean the Dems will stop tweaking the bill in a vain attempt to get Wilsons approval?
Conrad and Baucus somehow felt like they needed to firm up the illegal immigrant language in their bill so that douchebags like Wilson would vote for it. Which of course they never would.
