Taking to the House floor for a ‘One-Minute Speech,’ where a member of Congress can choose to speak about any topic for a maximum of one minute, Rep. Joe Wilson (R-SC) took to the floor to announce his concerns for the Democratic health care reform proposal.

The ‘One-Minute Speech,’ which is recorded into the Congressional Record, noticeably contained no apology from Mr. Wilson who has been threatened with punishment by House Democrats who have demanded an apology from the Congressman for shouting ‘You Lie!’ from the House floor at President Obama.
