Congressman Votes in Battle of the Outbursts

We may all think Kanye West is the devil for what he did to poor little Taylor Swift -- but on Capitol Hill, there's a far worse enemy to humanity: The dude who yelled "You lie!" at President Obama.

Jim Moran: Click to watch
Yesterday in D.C., Congressman Jim Moran (D, VA) slammed Representative Joe Wilson, saying, "Joe exposed himself to everyone for who he is .... I don't think he ever would have behaved in that disrespectful a way towards any other president, which tells you something about him, doesn't it?"

Moran said Serena Williams and Kanye's blowups didn't compare to Wilson's ... but what do you think?

3. everyone in the media needs to take a break. take a step back and re-evaluate where they should be going in life. kanye needs a good overdose of some super strong narcotic or a little embolism to take care of his problems.....

4. It's interesting this man is getting raked over the coals by the media (at least some of the media) over an outburst like this. First of all, he was right. Obama was not speaking the truth as it was already in the bill regarding illegal aliens getting medical care once they are in this country for 30 days. So, he did lie. Was this man right to call it out? No, he wasn't but he has made his apologies to the President and it has been accepted. So, why all this bashing??? Let it go. Second of all, when President Bush was speaking at the podium, there were people booing him. Gee, one rule for one party and another for the other party. Seems fair, doesn't it?

9. I think the way Kanye acted last night was lamentable.But, people are overreacting about it. The embarrassement he is going through now is enough to pay the consequences over his act.
Guys, remember: he didn't kill anybody!!! And Taylor got her win and later had the opportunity to offer her thanks for everyone she wanted to do it.
So, just let it go.

10. I'm really sick of people being called a 'racist' because they disagree with Obama and his insane policies. He's a bad president, period. He is ruining our country. Maybe Joe Wilson didn't express his view in the right way, but he is right. Obama is a liar.

Posted at 1:14AM on Sep 15th 2009 by Yeah, I said It

11. Kanye should not have done that to a child, Taylor is a Kid she is only 19 , that is the shame of it all.

However, no matter HOW MUCH SOME OF YOU DO NOT WANT TO ACCEPT THE FACT THAT PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA IS OUR PRESIDENT , That was far worst for a Congressman , I Congressman who had been on Congress Im sure for a certain amount of years, speak with is his emotions out of no self control. President Obama was not lying number one and number to at least he is trying , Honestly all Presidents since Bush 1 Clinton and even Regan have tried to improve America but Bush 2 well come one now, Where was Congressman Wilson then??? Under his white sheet.

12. I am not a black folk, but in this TMZ pool, I voted as the worst outburst, the Wilson's outburst. He acted as a complete crazy and disrespectful person. I believe in Obama's health care program and I think that the people who don't want this plan for every citizen of the country, is a complete fool and stupid person!!!!

OBAMA IS WHITE TOO.... TIRED OF PEOPLE CALLING HIM BLACK. HE IS NOT BLACK. HE IS A BI-RACIAL-AMERICAN. HE CAN TRACE HIS LINEAGE TO WHITE AND BLACK PEOPLE. NOTHING ABOUT HIS PRESIDENCY SHOULD EVER COME DOWN TO A RACE ISSUE. AND KANYE WEST IS A RETARDED-AMERICAN. HE NEEDS TO BE HANDLED LIKE A PERSON WITH SPECIAL NEEDS. I AM BI-RACIAL AND I TAKE OFFENSE TO THE WHITE FOLKS BEING STRANGE. BLACK OR WHITE IS NOT THE ISSUE. KANYE WEST IS AN OBNOXIOUS, SELF RIGHTEOUS PUNK ASS IMMATURE IMBECILE. HE NEEDS A GOOD DOSE OF REALITY. OR A LITTLE RUNNING OVER BY A TANK. HE IS AN EMBARRASSMENT TO AFRICAN AMERICANS EVERYWHERE BECAUSE HE IS MAKING THIS A RACE ISSUE. BOYCOTT KANYE!

14. Serena...she's the only one of the three that went so far as to threaten someone's life...

15. This Wilson is just a hypocrite, a stupid liar and a fake person. Obama is the president, period. Who doesn't like it, just suck it!!!!
Many stupids white trash can't accept that a black man is the president of United States, but, guys, he was the best choice we could make. And I think his plans are the best for the country. Period.
The rest is just lame.
