GOP Cocksuckers In 'All-Out-Whine' Mode - #325

#325 REP. JOE 'YOU LIE!' WILSON
CONGRESSMAN FOR THE SOUTH CAROLINA 2ND

A month ago, Rep. Wilson was just a simple backbencher in the House of Representatives; a guy notable only for voting to keep the old Confederate flag flying above the state capital in Columbia or claiming to be an immigration lawyer when there is no record of him being any such thing.

But that was before President Obama's speech on health care. After the president said the bill he was contemplating did not cover illegal immigrants (it doesn't) Wilson had a meltdown in the crowd. Since the days of screaming "Nigger, don't let the sun set on you here!" were long gone, Wilson instead bellowed "You lie!" at the president during his speech to a joint session of congress.

This was a shocking breach of decorum. (You know what decorum is, right? That's what Southern gentlemen are supposed have in abundance. It goes way back; even before the Civil War. For instance, 150 years ago another South Carolina congressman, Preston Brooks, beat the living shit out of Sen. Charles Sumner of New York with his cane because Sumner had made a speech that Brooks didn't like. And what did Brooks' constitutents do? Why they sent him new canes.

(Brooks wasn't committing assault and battery, he was just exhibiting that famous Southern decorum with which every target of a lynch mob is familiar.)

Back to Wilson. Later, Wilson knew he'd screwed up and apologized privately to the President, who accepted it. However, he balked at doing it publicly. In fact, he was pissed off about having to eat Humble Pie where everyone could see it and made a point out of not apologizing ever again.

The House was furious, embarassed and humiliated. Some Cracker from a state one of its own residents prior to the Civil War had said was "too small to be a Republic and too large to be an insane asylum," had displayed his boorishness for all to hear. The House slapped him on the wrist with a resolution of disapproval, the mildest punishment it had.

Even that was too much for the GOP Cocksuckers. They went into all-out-whine mode, screaming that Rep. Wilson was being singled out because he was not a democrat. After all, it was the democrats who booed the Drunken Frat Boy during one of his State of the Union speeches in 2006. 'What's the difference?' they claimed. (The difference is that while unruly, the democrats never interrupted the Drunken Frat Boy's speech to call him a 'liar.' And believe me, they had a LOT of reasons to do so. THAT'S the difference.)

Disgusted democrats from all over the country contributed more than half a million dollars to Wilson's erstwhile opponent. Furious with rage, GOP Cocksuckers smugly committed more than a million dollars to Wilson's reelection campaign. (Thereby shoveling a million bucks into what is normally a reliably conservative district and taking it off the table to do mischief elsewhere. LOL)
