The guy that yelled during Obama's speech? Oh yeah, he's my congressman.

I have no issue with disagreeing with the president.  I have huge issues with embarrassing your constituents by heckling the president during a major address.

YOU LIE, bubbly!!!

Get it?  haha.

I generally think reps in the house are the lowest form of political scum.  Probably b/c they will do anything to get re-elected every 2 years, and typically they are dumbasses since there are so many of them.  I think Senators, while also political scum, tend to be better educated and under more scrutiny since there are only 100.

The ONLY reason he was elected was because he was big buddies with the guy who's seat he filled.  When that guy passed away, the family put big bucks behind Wilson, and basically eliminated any chance of anyone else winning that seat.  He's worthless.

Thanks aprilmom - I enjoy calling out political scum. 

Bubbly - congressional rep races are such a joke.  So many are like that, or the incumbent just wins no matter what.  I grew up in the Indiana district of Lee Hamilton who was a rep for like 40+ years!  It was INSANE.

Guess he quickly realized what an idiot he sounded like. LOL
