Take a careful look at this photo of Joe Wilson yelling "You lie!"


Wilson is insisting that his outburst was spontaneous but, whoever the men are on either side of him, they KNEW he was going to do that. It was planned. They were relishing the moment. You can tell.

1. Maybe they're used to sitting with him and he always acts like an idiot.

6. It's more than that.
They're radiating with vindictive pleasure, particularly the dude on the left.

14. They all had copies of the speech
prior to the actual speech. They nay of had copies to read for 2 days even. Yes, this was an organized distraction , strategically times with Wilson in the front row.

3. I heard last night that he had already twittered to someone that he was going to do that - that's
why people don't care for his apology - the outburst wasn't done "in the heat of the moment" - it was premeditated.

5. Who are those smarmy looking bottom feeders? Something tells me they are up to no good.
They look like the embodiment of evil.

7. Looks like a triple-dog dare to me.
None of the scumbags around him look shocked by his "spontaneous" outburst.

Assholes one and all.

10. To me, they both look like theyre trying to disappear.
The guy on the left is wincing, the guy on the right can't get
any further away from Joe.

12. It was planned -
that asswipe Gohmert with his handlettered signs, Wilson with his "outburst," other GOPigs waving copies of some document over their heads.

All of it was planned.

The GOPigs seem to be descending faster and faster down the drain of irrelevancy, and are getting more and more desperate as they make grabs for attention, all of which backfire on them.

Those "town halls" that were overrun by the Astroturfers didn't do one thing to influence what American voters think about health care, and the poll numbers show it.

The GOPigs are leaderless, rudderless, and pointless. They've got nothing substantive to offer, so all they can do is keep trying to demonize that bad brown man in the Oval Office. They keep forgetting that the majority of voters resoundingly elected him last November, and, in doing so, repudiated all those GOPigs had done and tried to stand for for the prior eight years.

They remind me of the desperate wife who's been a total drunk, child-beater, slattern, who's crying and grabbing at the husband's ankles as he's leaving her and taking the kids. She's without resources or any ability to change, but she still wants him to stay and keep taking her abuse.

Party's over, GOPigs, but you don't get it. You really, really don't...........................

15. It was all orchestrated
Yes, it was all orchestrated -- his "spontaneous" outburst and the smirks of the evil twins.

This scumbag will be the cause celebre at the tea-baggers big event on 9/12.

They want war.

17. If it hadn't been planned,
those guys next to him would have been snapping their heads around like Pelosi did out of being startled. Bastards.

20. The One On The Right Is Peter RoSCUM...
A Rove accolyte who beat Tammy Duckworth a couple years ago. I wouldn't be surprised if they were all on heckling duty, just Wilson was "too good"...he got caught.

23. I do think it was planned and I'll tell you why...
I think it was done to knock Obama's speech and the content of the speech off the front page.

It was a distraction.

Now, everyone's talking about this screamer and who is he, and his apology and how people aren't accepting it.

They aren't talking about the people who are dying because they don't have health insurance. The media isn't
explaining what a public option is.

The debate is centered around nuttiness, not the real issues.

Exactly like the Republicans wanted it.

Anyone seriously doubt that the Republicans are above engaging in schemes like this?

24. I have to say it again
He yelled it two times. The first time wasn't loud enough so he yelled it again. Planned or not it was in no way spontaneous the second time. I think this needs to be talked about, but my thread on it died a pretty quick death. I think hearing him say it twice means something.

25. Yep. That's another clue that it wasnt spontaneous.
As if his word on the situation ever had contained an ounce of truth. And what do you want to bet that Fox had the whole playbook in advance?
