EMANUEL: “When Joe Wilson from South Carolina shouted out at President Obama when I was chief of staff, that you're a liar, it has been on a precipitous decline to the point now that it's actually less State of the Union and more theater, more, actually, in my view, very disrespectful on both sides, both the president's speaker and then the audience there. I think the Democrats should have shown up. Don't be -- don't play junior varsity in that area, and listen to the president's remarks and then go out and say what you disagreed with. And there's a lot to disagree with. I don't think it helps the Democrats.”
