The House of Representatives voted to formally admonish Rep. Joe Wilson for his outburst as President Obama spoke to Congress last week. Wilson now has to stay after session and clap out the erasers for 2 weeks.
The House members then voted themselves a formal pat on the back for proving they can get things done.
House Democrats had insisted that Wilson offer an apology to the House, above the apology he made to the president. Meanwhile, the ones who are really sorry are Americans without health care.
The reprimand over his outburst goes down on Wilson’s permanent record, and the campaign money he’s received since the outburst goes down on his books as $500,000.
