I didn't get to watch President Obama's speeach last night, I was at church. However It seems that tie big news this morning is the outburst of South Carolina Rep. Joe Wilson, who yelled out, "You lie!"

Here in The States, we try to pretend to be civil, and our rules of decorum try to reflect that. But, I wonder if all that pent up aggression causes more problems? Instead of condemning Joe Wilson, perhaps we should re-think our approach.
Watch this video of Prime Minister's Questions. I usually don't have any idea what the heck they are talking about, regardless, I love to watch the PMQ.

I love it! Joe Wilson shouldn't have to apologize, I say we should have more of that kind of outburst, not less. I would have loved to see Reagan spar against Tip O'Neill, or George W against Nancy Pelosi.
Although, it can be taken too far, we dont want to emulate the Koreans...

Joe Wilson from South Carolina, is just another good old boy where in the morning these married men preach to you that there should be prayer in our schools and in the evening they are on their cell phones setting up a date with their other women on the side, hypocrisy has been bred in. I am not surprised that he felt compel to yell like he was at some Friday night game. He is a hater not a debater like most of his side of the isle.
After hearing so much about it, I found the actual event a little disappointing and anti climactic.
