Looking into the background of Rep. Joe Wilson, R-South Carolina, after his heckling of President Obama is this:

Joe also has been a member of the Columbia World Affairs Council, Fellowship of Christian Athletes, Sinclair Lodge 154, Jamil Temple, Woodmen of the World, Sons of Confederate Veterans, ....

This is an organization that, as the SPLC has detailed assiduously, has been taken over in the past decade by radical neo-Confederates who favor secession and defend slavery as a benign institution. Leading the takeover is a radical racist who's been an important legal figure on the far right for some years.

In more recent years, the takeover has led to an outright internal civil war. Andrew Meacham at the St. Petersburg Times detailed the internal rift last year:

Experts say the divisions within the Sons vary between two extremes. On one side are the traditionalists, members who focus on cleaning up Confederate grave sites and conducting Civil War re-enactments.

On the other side are the so-called Lunatics, up to 2,000 members who deride traditionalists as "grannies'' and belong to camps named after notorious Southern figures such as John Wilkes Booth and Jesse James.

John Wilkes Booth members have been known to put pennies in urinals, making sure to leave the Lincoln side face-up. Other Lunatic groups have removed the U.S. flag from their halls and banned the Pledge of Allegiance, says Walter Hilderman, who several years ago created an anti-Lunatic group called Save the Sons of Confederate Veterans.

"The problem is it's supposed to be a patriotic organization," says Hilderman, 59. "You are either that or you let guys in who want to secede."

Now, add this to the fact that Joe Wilson, as a state legislator, was one of only seven Republicans to go against their own party and vote to keep the Dixie Rebel flag flying over the South Carolina capitol:

The flag came down that year after Republicans in both houses went for a compromise that would put it on Statehouse grounds at the Confederate Soldier?s monument. The ?Magnificent Seven? of Senators who voted to keep the flag up included current Congressman Joe Wilson

This bothers you Bob, yet here are the quotes from the church our President worshiped at for 20 years:

?We bombed Hiroshima, we bombed Nagasaki, and we nuked far more than the thousands in New York and the Pentagon, and we never batted an eye.?
?We have supported state terrorism against the Palestinians and black South Africans, and now we are indignant because the stuff we have done overseas is now brought right back to our own front yards. America?s chickens are coming home to roost.? (Sep 2001)
?The government gives them the drugs, builds bigger prisons, passes a three-strike law and then wants us to sing ?God Bless America.? No, no, no, God d@mn America, that?s in the Bible for killing innocent people. God d@mn America for treating our citizens as less than human. God d@mn America for as long as she acts like she is God and she is supreme.? (2003)
?In the 21st century, white America got a wake-up call after 9/11/01. White America and the western world came to realize that people of color had not gone away, faded into the woodwork or just ?disappeared? as the Great White West kept on its merry way of ignoring black concerns.? (magazine article)
?Racism is how this country was founded and how this country is still run!?We [in the U.S.] believe in white supremacy and black inferiority and believe it more than we believe in God.? (sermon)
?Barack knows what it means living in a country and a culture that is controlled by rich white people. Hillary would never know that. Hillary ain?t never been called a n*#*er. Hillary has never had a people defined as a non-person.?
?Hillary is married to Bill, and Bill has been good to us. No he ain?t! Bill did us, just like he did Monica Lewinsky. He was riding dirty.? (sermon)
?The Israelis have illegally occupied Palestinian territories for over 40 years now. Divestment has now hit the table again as a strategy to wake the business community and wake up Americans concerning the injustice and the racism under which the Palestinians have lived because of Zionism.?

With the point you are trying to make I can say equally that our President is as racist as the day is long. I'm sure Joe is, too, but your hypocrisy is at 1000% if you can't see the point you are trying to make in our current President...and he indoctrinated his kids with this garbage!

why bother with bob, i mean come on. you hit the nail on the head though, but theres so much more that we could list. this one is just way too easy. every channel including radio is mentioning this story yet acorn is nowhere to be found. i just heard a radio interview of the journalists involved and you aint seen nothing yet, but you will tonight and tomorrow. well, on fox and other fair and balanced news outlets you will anyway.

without listing all what i could list about the hypocrisy, i have one question for bob. if the prez wasnt lying, why the next day did the white house issue an amendment that will require proof of identity/residency when the original did not? meaning, the original absolutely would have allowed illegal coverge-period. shouting "liar" was dumb, but he wasnt lying...pardon the pun. and now the dems and their pals in the media are using this for political gain all day long and its transparent. well, its transparent to those who arent in the tank for party lines and that want factual information from our elected officials and/or our media.

what a joke this story is. its so wonder why so many especially the liberal wing is so grossly in the clouds these days. not one single lib blog or news channel has mentioned this and ive been researching for days. with charlie gibson saying today that he hasnt heard of the acorn controversy, does anyone still doubt the media is at all competant-NOT!!!
