House act on congressman who called pres. a liar?

FROM CNN’s Jack Cafferty:

The House may formally criticize Joe Wilson — the congressman who yelled “you lie” at President Obama during his health care speech to Congress last week.

Democratic leaders are deciding whether to bring a resolution of disapproval to the House floor. It wouldn’t be a formal reprimand or censure — but would put the House on record as condemning Wilson’s behavior.

Republicans say Wilson already apologized for his outburst… and the president accepted. They say Democrats are just wasting taxpayers’ time — instead of focusing on issues like health care.

Even one top Democrat — Congressman Barney Frank — isn’t sure the resolution is such a good idea. Frank says it sets a bad precedent to put lawmakers “in charge of deciding whether people are jerks.”

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi initially said she didn’t plan to take the issue any further, but other Democrats argued that Wilson’s behavior couldn’t be ignored. For his part — Wilson already said he would refuse to apologize on the House floor.

Meanwhile some of Wilson’s supporters say if Democrats go forward with this resolution, it will only help him back at home in South Carolina, where he’s up for re-election. They see it as yet another chance to raise money and rally the base behind him.

Both Wilson and his Democratic challenger have raised more than $1 million since he called the president a liar.

Here’s my question to you: What should the House do about Rep. Joe Wilson, who called President Obama a liar?
