Appearing this morning on MSNBC, Rep. Alan Grayson (D-FL) strongly rejected any comparison between his “Die quickly” attack on Republicans and Rep. Joe Wilson’s (R-SC) “You lie!” interruption of President Obama.

“Comparing what Joe Wilson did to what I did — it’s not the same,” said Grayson. “What I did is like a Bob Dylan protest song. What Joe Wilson did is like a belch.”
