What do you think of Rep. Joe Wilson's decision to shout out 'You lie!' during speech

I gave you a chance to take back a nasty comment, in another thread, and you didn't. It was completely unwarranted, but you left it up there, after being challenged twice, by at least two people. You are a nasty dude, and I will continue to point it out. You had better get used to it. You aren't the king here, you only think you are.

That being said, if the president didn;'t break every campaign promise he's made, and if the president wouldn't treat people like they were stupid, he wouldn't have to worry about stuff like this. My only problem is his apology.

 

The comment to which you refer was not nasty. I purposefully did not retract. Tough.

And again, your cavalier attitude about Tourette's shows you to be a real nasty person yourself. You brought me up here, not I. Obviously your fascination goes beyond what is considered normal. You are the one who chases me around from thread to thead for no purpose other than to sling insults. You need to seriously do some repenting.

Again, it is a legitimate question...does Wilson perhaps have Tourette's?

 

I rest my case. Nasty. Accusation of racism, no explanation. Nasty. If you are allwoed to do that, then I most certainly am allowed to bring it up.

You are the cavalier one, dude. You throw accusations around here like frisbees, and then say it's the other person's problem. I work with drug addicts, and a lot of them have beaten their wives, and then blamed them for instigating it. You remind me of one of them.

It's a nasty question. If not, then mine isn't, either. What is the disease to which you blame your nasty attitude ?

 

Now you have gone off into the theater of the absurd.

Your saying so doesn't make it so. Can you explain why you would think this? It is perfectly legitimate. Tourette's causes such outbursts.

Yet another personal attack. Remove the mote from your own eye.

 

In an earlier post I questioned your assertion above. I have just heard Niles Gardiner of the Heritage Foundation, who is from England, comment on Rep. Wilson [Neal Cavuto show]. He stated that the exchanges on the floor of the House of Commons is far worse than that by Rep. Wilson. That has been my impression from listening to the exchanges in the House of Commons. Therefore, your assertion that: "A British MP who called his/her head of state a liar would be suspended from Parliament." is apparently false.

 

That is a pretty sick statement. Something one might expect from "whoever".

 

Care to explain? Again, you guys don't get it do you? It is a legitimate concern.

 

MP it is a bit odd that you would ask such a question. It doesn't fit with the scenario. reaching to touretts because of this outburst is itself off the chart absurd. Just because someone has an outburst doesn't lead to this.

 

If you knew anything about Tourette's, you would realize it is not odd at all. As one who has mild Tourette's and has raised a son with moderately severe T.S., I assure you it fits the condition very well. Does it mean the congressman has it? No. But many cases are undiagnosed. Impulse control is a big part of T.S. That is why I raise the question. It is a valid question. One I personally know a heck of a lot about, probably more than anyone else on this board.

 

Did Jesus Christ speak with love and grace when he used His whip in the temple? Did Paul speak with love and grace when he told the church at Corinth to exclude the adulterer? Did Paul speak with love and grace when he chastised Peter? Did John the Baptist speak with love and grace when he called the Pharisees vipers?

 

And your hatred is a legit concern.

 

I am not the one following you around making personal attacks. Get over it. And also how about answering the question.

 

Did you raise that concern every time some democrat, including Harry Reid, called President Bush a liar? Did you raise that concern when Senator Turbin Durbin called American soldiers "jack booted thugs"? Did you raise that concern when Murtha and Kerry accused American soldiers of rape and murder in Iraq?

 

Your comments show your misunderstanding of TS. Read what I have written. It has a lot to do with impulse control and making inappropriate outbursts at the worst possible times. Your examples have nothing to do with that. It is not an insult. People with TS cannot help having it. I was actually wondering if there is a better explanation than just him being rude. Since I have experience with this, it is what comes to mind.

 

While I am grateful for every soldier, trooper, and marine... they do not give me freedom. God gives freedom... nations affirm that freedom, militaries defend that freedom.

Semper Fi

 

Pound sand. You've left some pretty good, legit questions unanswered. Like I said, you only think you're a king around here. Why don't YOU answer some, first?

 

I also would add, those of you who think TS is just shouting out obscenities hold a common misconception. That symptom (copralalia) is not present in most TS sufferers.

 

Until you can engage in meaningful, rational dialog, I shall not engage you. I answer questions continually, while you avoid them and make personal insults. You are the worst offender here. And you have absolutely no idea what I think.

 

You are the only one who even cares. The whole thing is off topic.

 

Well said! :thumbs:
