It was a foolish and inappropriate outburst. If he apologized let it go.

Funny that all that was acceptable in style and method (and even got applauded for being that blunt) if being done by Republicans and with a Republican president in office - becomes unacceptable if being done by non-Republicans, and Republicans having lost elections
Wait - I think you have that backwards.

How was it that there was that now infamous photograph taken of Wilson in mid-outburst? Think about it...there's a lot of people in that room, and that picture was taken perfectly centered on him, and perfectly framed, taken at the exact moment he was shouting.

Strange. Ah well. I agree with the move on sentiment. He did an idiotic thing and people are pumping money into both he and his opponents coffers over it. He's apologized, and now it's just becoming a circus sideshow.

To what end to stage such a thing though?

Dunno. Just thought it was either an incredible coincidence that the photo was taken or there was something more to it.

LOL a coincidence that in a room full of hundereds of people and dozens of cameras that someone caught a photo of the outburst.
