Let’s start off by acknowledging that Rep. Joe Wilson needed to
apologize for his outburst in Congress last night during the speech by
President Barack Obama. Getting called a liar by the President in a
speech may be infuriating, but a certain level of decorum is expected
of our elected officials, and Wilson violated that decorum. He did the

Unfortunately, people on the Left want to keep hyperventilating
about this as though the world was born on the day Barack Obama won the
presidential election. As Omri Ceren and Michelle
