</div><div>David Badash and The New Civil Rights Movement February 08, 2023</div><div>   </div><div>U.S. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) numerous times heckled President Joe Biden as he delivered the State of the Union Address, including repeatedly calling him a “liar.”</div><div>
</div><div>Not in modern history has anyone so clearly disturbed the decorum of the nationally-televised event watched live by 40 million Americans. Not even U.S. Rep. Joe Wilson (R-SC), who infamously also called the President a liar – “You lie!” – during another nationally-televised event, that one by President Barack Obama in September of 2009.</div><div>
</div><div>
</div><div>OBAMA YOU LIE</div><div>youtu.be]</div><div>
</div><div>Tuesday night Congresswoman Greene repeatedly yelled, “You lie!” and, “Liar!” at President Biden, who, ironically, was sitting one seat back from his current position the last time it happened.</div><div>
</div><div>Here is that moment:</div><div>
</div><div>\u201cRep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) yells <b>"you lie, you lie" and "liar" after President Biden says Republicans are proposing to sunset Medicare and Social Security.</b>\u201d</div><div>— The Recount (@The Recount) 1675824479</div><div>Greene also heckled President Biden at other times throughout his speech – something she and Rep. Lauren Boebert did one year ago, also during the State of the Union.</div><div>
</div><div>Republican former U.S. Congressman Adam Kinzinger Tuesday night tweeted, “Did @RepMTG just yell ‘liar’?! Awful. Yet she will not be punished in response.”</div><div>

</div><div>
</div><div>He then called for Greene’s censure – and called for her fellow Republicans to do it.</div><div>
</div><div>“The GOP should lead the censure of @RepMTG for her behavior,” Kinzinger tweeted.</div><div>
</div><div>He wasn’t done.</div><div>
</div><div><span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 102);">Posting a screenshot of Greene standing during the State of the Union heckling President Biden, with her thumb pointing down, Kinzinger asked, “My fellow Republicans… you really want this as a role model for your kids? Do you really think the next generation will want to be part of this? I don’t.”</span></div><div>
</div><div>Kinzinger went one step further, reposting a tweet likening Congresswoman Greene to the fictional Disney villain Cruella de Vil – a comparison many on social media had been making during the evening’s event.</div><div>
</div><div><span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 102);">“Representative Joe Wilson was formally rebuked by the House on Tuesday for his outburst during President Obama’s health care address,” The New York Times reported, less than a week after what was at the time an unthinkable act. “The vote came after a Congressional clash over civility that showcased the deep partisan divisions in the House</span>.”</div><div>
</div><div><span style="background-color: rgb(255, 153, 0);">Congressman Wilson also apologized for calling President Obama a “liar,” barely hours after his outburst.</span></div><div><span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 102);">
</span></div><div><span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 102);">“This evening I let my emotions get the best of me when listening to the President’s remarks regarding the coverage of illegal immigrants in the health care bill,” he said in a statement. “While I disagree with the President’s statement, my comments were inappropriate and regrettable. I extend sincere apologies to the President for this lack of civility.”</span></div><div>
</div><div>Congresswoman Greene likely will not apologize, and likely will not face any formal rebuke.</div></div><div><font size="4" face="Times New Roman"> =</font></div></div><div><div><font size="4" face="Times New Roman"></font></div><div><font size="4" face="Times New Roman"> see  her maga endorsement sought, big fund-raiser, is she hurt by fashy bad behavior or helped?</font></div><div><font size="4" face="Times New Roman">
