Anyone else notice that all the GOP talking-points doctors are surgeons?

Oh, of course he didn't. Or if he did, that doesn't matter.
That response has been written way ahead of time, and is meant to parrot talking points, not actually, you know, *respond.*
Feh.

So, they just let him hang out there and look stupid, because he covered some of the same territory that Obama did.

I also have to laugh cynically whenever I hear GOP doctors ask for malpractice liability reform. I can't be the only one thinking these guys are in Congress because they weren't very good at their other job, right?

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Am I the only one who giggled that all the sitting-grim people were, to a person, old white guys?
Seriously. Try to look like you'll mix it up a bit. TRY.

More about Joe Wilson, from wikipedia:
In September 2002, during a debate on the possibility of going to war in Iraq, Wilson called Congressman Bob Filner "viscerally anti-American" and claimed that he had a "hatred of America" after Filner suggested the United States supplied chemical and biological weapons to Saddam Hussein. Wilson said later that he didn't intend to insult Filner.[4]
