Rep. Joe Wilson is a hysterical little coward, isn't he?
He's on Washington Journal now going on about professional mass murderers who are trying to destroy our way of life....and our freedoms (he almost forgot that one). Has no problem with torturing cause he thinks it'll prevent us from fighting those terrorists on our streets. Says we shouldn't "walk away."

This man is loathsome. Is he up for reelection this year?

2. He's a sorry SOB.
He is a condescending bastard, if the vote was 52 to 8 there are a lot of sell outs.

6. I saw that. I can't decide how much of this is genuine fear and how
much is craven schtick.

11. this Wilson guy? Pure fear. I tried to call in
I would have simply said that if you are so full of fear you really should not be representing others. You should be cowering under the counter at your local 7-11 and let leaders lead.

9. I Thought We Were "Safer"
Didn't his fearless leader just say that two weeks ago? Then what are we supposed to be "very afraid" about? Idiot!

10. He wasn't anymore specific about what we're supposed to be afraid of than
he was about what the definition of torture is.

12. Naturally!
Vague, unspecified concerns over shadowy, ill-defined villains, using unascertained methods to destroy "our freedoms".

How convenient.

14. Wilson also said he "was changed" after 9/11, that he thought
terrorism only happened overseas (paraphrasing) before then. I was dialing like crazy to get in. I wanted to tell him that if he was too traumatized, afraid and changed after 9/11 that maybe he wasn't up to the job in DC. That we need people who are courageous enough to defend the Constitution from all enemies from aboard and within, not someone who cuts and runs from a fight in order to feel safe.

Dang, would have loved to start the mantra if you are willing to undermine this country because of your fears you need to go home.

15. See My Post Above
Bin Laden issued his original fatwa delcaring war on the U.S. in 1993. So, this guy is admitting he didn't know al Qaeda was our enemy for 8 years?!? What a tool!

17. I was thinking PTSD as well.
If that's the case, he needs to be in treatment, not the halls of Congress making life and death decisions.

22. Now you see why...
Republicans don't often show up for any real fighting of wars, in person. They are mainly selfish COWARDS. All the way back to the Civil War the rich boys in America were too cowardly to fight the wars they started!(hired substitutes) How could sane people, believe that ANYONE with an obvious yellow streak like Wilson clearly and unashamedly, displays in public, could protect them from ANYTHING the least bit dangerous?

18. Willy did mention the liquid plot to take
down 10 airliners. They talk as though it really happened.

This clown and Hoekstra have been on the show many times. Cspn is becoming unviewable.

coward and a fearmonger alone.
