OHIO
(WOUB) -
Southeast Ohio congressman Charlie Wilson wants people to know he's not Joe Wilson, the lawmaker who heckled President Barack Obama.
The Ohio Democrat says people have phoned confusing him with the South Carolina Republican who yelled "You lie" while the president was addressing Congress on Wednesday night.
The two Wilsons are not related.
The one from Ohio says he remains friends with his colleague and feels bad for him.
Charlie Wilson says that he was surprised by the outburst but that the health care debate has stirred up emotions. © Copyright 2012, WOUB
