Wilson Shouts ‘You Lie’ After Wife Fakes Orgasm
Breach of Congressional Decorum, Experts Say
Rep. Joe Wilson (R-SC) courted controversy again today as he reportedly shouted “You lie” during a sexual encounter in which his wife pretended to have an orgasm.
While details of Rep. Wilson’s latest outburst are sketchy at best, congressional experts say that it is totally against the decorum of the House of Representatives to speak out during a spouse’s faked orgasm.
But the South Carolina congressman got a vote of support from a fellow Republican lawmaker, Sen. John Ensign (R-NV), who told reporters, “It’s so rare for a Republican politician to have sex with his own wife, we should applaud it when it happens.”
In a related story, President Obama said that Rep. Wilson’s outburst during his speech Wednesday night was “productive,” adding, “Joe Wilson highlighted the need for mental health care.”
