Who had the worst outburst - Serena Williams, Joe Wilson or Kanye West?
At least three Americans caught very public cases of foot-in-the-mouth disease in the last few days.
Symptoms include rudeness, screaming and valuing your opinion a ‘little’ too much. But who swallowed the most shoe leather? (That’s shoe leather not a tennis ball Serena.)
Was it the crazed congressman, the ticked off tennis player or the whacked out rapper?
Your vote will help decide if Rep. Joe Wilson R-(SC), tennis player Serena Williams or Kanye West will wear the crown as sovereign ruler of the loud mouths.

How can you decide? Serena is a tennis player. No big deal to me. What’s worst, humiliating and hurting the feelings of a sweet young girl on national television or insulting the integrity of the highest elected official in the United States??? Wilson and West should be put in a room together. Obama can handle it but I don’t think that Taylor will ever forget that night.By Get Real Folks

How can you compare a congressman losing his mind to a rapper drunk out of his mind? Really which is more important?By Anon

“insulting the integrity of the highest elected official in the United States???” Since the president was in the process of lying to us to try to get people to buy into his government health care plan (it started out as health care reform, then they crayoned in the word “insurance”). I think BHO owes us the apologyBy Barry

No matter what your political leaning, there simply is no justification for shouting during a speech given by the President of the United States. Period. Such disrespect is completely unacceptable. Disagree with policy all you want, but do so in an appropriate manner. Young Taylor Swift has more class in her little finger than what’s-his-name can ever hope for. People do stupid stuff because they’re stupid, but she’s handling it perfectly, and doesn’t need his fake apology. It would only give him more media time, anyway. Serena Williams..meh.. Entitled athletes are a dime a dozen. When the chips are down, people show their true colors.By Duh

The poll should have asked what behavior is worse, lying or bad manners. The Congress should make some rules about when the President lies at a joint session or state of the union, he owes the American people an apology and should get a formal disapproval. That should have been included in their paperwork for Rep. Wilson. That example BO gave at that meeting of the woman with breast cancer being denied surgery because she failed to disclose earlier her acne is a good starting point and then it goes on to the revenue neutral one for his trillion dollar healthcare plan. In between we heard the one about how you can pay for the Obamacare by saving on the waste and fraud when that should be done anyway. If this Congress is unwilling to apply equal treatment about bad manners and lying, then maybe the voters can vote them out next time.By me too

Joe Wilson did apologize, but I believe he should have waited until BHO issued an apology to the Boston Police Officer in the Gates episode!
