Joe Wilson says something obviously true, if gauche, about the President during Obama's speech last night, and Democrats are calling for a censure.

Actions speak louder than words, and the Democrats are shouting "corruption" right now.

Good post, BB. Really good. Have linked over at my place.
As I recall, Republican senator Dave Durenberger was censured by the Congress for his real estate shading back in the day, though I think his transgressions were related to how he reported the use of his residences in D.C. and Minnesota; there's probably more there but it's been quite a few years. Rangel's activities seem to be on a larger scale. Let's see what happens.
