5. but the issue isn't whether his beliefs are wrong or right
that are getting the attention (as they should be). it's the issue that he made a rude boorish outburst while the president was speaking.

he has every right to hold a conflicting view, even if it's obviously moronic.

god knows if we could censure congressmen who held moronic views, we'd never get out of hearings.

frankly, im cool with the guy apologizing. what i found ridiculous is some repub congressman (can't recall name) who simply REFUSED to admit that he thought that what wilson did was wrong.

NOBODY, regardless of ideology, who believes in rule of law, respect for the office, etc. can believe anything other than that what wilson did was wrong.

anybody who DOESN'T think it was wrong doesn't respect rule of law, or the office of the presidency.

this guy either didn't think it was wrong (bad) or didn't have the courage to admit that (bad)
