Sen. Arlen Specter (D-PA) just tweeted that Rep. Joe Wilson’s (R-SC) apology for heckling the president Wednesday isn’t enough — the congressman should be reprimanded.
“Rep. Wilson apologized immediately afterward but I don’t think that’s adequate,” he wrote. “There ought to be a reprimand or censure of Rep. Joe Wilson to discourage that kind of conduct in the future.”
Wilson yelled, “You lie!” during President Obama’s address to Congress, after Obama said public insurance wouldn’t be provided to illegal immigrants. Wilson apologized soon after the speech.
