I know we have had lots of wilson diaries, so i won't go into the main stuff we all know lol
However i found this story really shocking, that shows what was obvious to democrats, the insincerity of Wilsons apology...must be really clear to republicans to.
More interestingly, its obvious that even Boehner and Cantor are not happy with the fallout from wilson's behavior.
No way would they actually ask him to apologize on the house floor if they thought it would do them an iota of good, wingnuts included.
Rep. John Boehner, the House Minority Leader, was asked today if there was any truth to something Rep. Barney Frank, a Democrat, told reporters, that House Republican leaders wanted Rep. Joe Wilson to apologize to President Barack Obama on the House floor for calling the president a liar Wednesday night but that Wilson refused.

REPORTER: Mr. Boehner, Mr. Frank just told a group of reporters that the last vote was held open because you and Mr. Cantor were trying to convince Congressman Wilson to publicly apologize on the House floor, but he refused. Do you want him to go to the floor and apologize?
REP. BOEHNER: There were a lot of reasons why the last vote was left open. I did have a conversation with Mr. Wilson. I'm not going to relay the -- the contents of my private conversation with him. You'll have to talk to him.
REPORTER: Are you disappointed he won't apologize on the House floor?
REP. BOEHNER: You'll have to talk to him.
Curious as to what is scaring them so badly, i expected a little lip service to it being inappropriate but that apparently both boehner and cantor want him to apologize on the floor is a surprise. More (or perhaps not) of a surprise is that Wilson refused.
