"He's become the new Sarah Palin of the Republican Party, where one's popularity is in inverse proportion to one's stupidity -- the stupider a Republican is these days the more popular he or she becomes."
-- Bruce Bartlett, former Reagan adviser and treasury official under George Bush Sr.
"Wilson's outburst is an almost perfect summation of 2009 -- President Obama appears big, Republicans appear small. Democrat show class, Republicans act like children. One side is serious, one side is shrill. The White House says something true, Republicans lash out with falsehoods. To be sure, Wilson is a buffoon, from whom very little is expected... a reflexive, right-wing clown masquerading as a congressman. He embarrassed himself, his party, and his institution last night."
-- Steve Benen of the Washington Monthly's "Political Animal"
"Whoever shouted out that the president was lying is a dumbass."
-- Joe Scarborough
