WASHINGTON - Democrats and Republicans alike are denouncingRep. Joe Wilson for shouting "You lie" at President Barack Obamaduring his speech to Congress, an extraordinary breach of decorum for which the South Carolina Republican swiftly apologized.

"I was embarrassed for the chamber and a Congress I love," Vice President Joe Biden said Thursday on ABC's "Good Morning America." "It demeaned the institution."

House Minority Whip Eric Cantor, R-Va., told ABC on Wednesday: "Obviously, the President of the United States is always welcome on Capitol Hill. He deserves respect and decorum.
"

"
Wilson's outburst came after Obama said extending health care to all Americans who seek it would not mean insuring illegal immigrants.

"You lie!" Wilson shouted from his seat on the Republican side of the chamber.
"

I cannot even begin to fathom how this health care bill would be extended to illegal immigrants. This hurts my brain in ways I thought only Oreily, Rush, And Beck could.
