S.C. Rep. Joe Wilson Shouts, ‘You lie’ at Obama
![]()
WASHINGTON (CNN) — A Republican House member shouted, “You lie” during President Obama’s health care speech to Congress on Wednesday, and members of both parties condemned the heckling.
Rep. Joe Wilson shouted “you lie” after President Obama denied the health care plan would cover illegal immigrants.
“This evening, I let my emotions get the best of me when listening to the president’s remarks regarding the coverage of illegal immigrants in the health care bill,” the statement said. “While I disagree with the president’s statement, my comments were inappropriate and regrettable. I extend sincere apologies to the president for this lack of civility.”
Wilson also called the White House to apologize and spoke with Obama’s Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel. Read full story here
