S.C.'s Wilson Rakes In $750,000 in Less Than 48 Hours

09-11-2009 • Washington Post

With a political arms race in full force, Rep. Joe Wilson (R-S.C.) has raised almost $750,000 in less than 48 hours since his shout of "You lie!" to President Obama during the Wednesday address to Congress, almost matching the Internet-fueled haul of his likely Democratic opponent.

I agree Obama lied but Joe Wilson voted in 2003 to give Illegals free healthcare this is a fact so Obama lied and Joe is a hypocrite

Wilson's opponent raked in more than a million! I also saw an article that says Wilson voted in the past to provide health care for illegal aliens--still searching for proof on that but it would be some kicker if true.

I wish more of the republicans,in the House and Senate had the same honesty that Mr Wilson has, we would not be in the mess that were in. I have a great fear for our nation, that the USA will not be any longer.If the DEMON-CRATS arent stopped we will not have the Freedom that the blood lost in battle to protect those Freedoms.
