SC-02: Joe Wilson Affirms Unwavering Support for Opponent's Press Release

South Carolina GOP Rep. Joe Wilson must love his Democratic opponent, Iraq vet Rob Miller.

Wilson apparently loves Miller so much, that he posted one of Miller's press releases attacking him for steadfastly supporting George Bush's "failed" education policies.

The release is still available on Wilson's campaign web site (posted under Wilson's own name), and ends with a ringing endorsement of his Democratic challenger:

Today, Wilson's Democratic challenger Rob Miller made the following statement about the first day of Wilson's tour for the status quo and "No Child Left Behind":

"We need change in Washington, not more of the same. Congressman Wilson's bus tour is all about championing the way Washington does business. Congressman Wilson's support for 'No Child Left Behind' is just wrong. It's an unfunded federal mandate that forces teachers to teach for the test instead of truly educating our children. It's about time Washington stop telling local communities how to educate our children.

I'm sure that Mr. Miller very much appreciates Joe Wilson's kindly assist in disseminating this press release as widely as possible.

(Hat-tip to reader LH for the scoop.)

It's been taken down...
Were they hacked? A hasty volunteer copied-and=pasted/uploaded the wrong document? Still pretty funny.
