Democrats and the new “civil” discourse

January 21, 2011 | Jim Vicevich |

Just a little wrap up for you lefties out there, once again proving my original thesis that when the left calls for civility, they really mean you folks on the right should shut up and take out “hate” language. Bonus video: CK on the new civility.

Here are just a few of the bites from the last few days as Democrats went on the attack on the Obamacare repeal, with their new civility speech on display. Lovely.

Charles Krauthammer does a great jon of exposing the hypocrisy of the whole thing … reminding the left of the Bush years.

Just remember my little “mobsters”, as Stephen Hayes pointed out last night, the left always sqeels the loudest on civility when they are losing the argument. How dare the right use leftists tactics.

    My computer is smarter than the average computer. I tried to listen to the first video, just after Cohen spoke, there was no more sound. Then I turned on the video of the most brilliant man, Krauthammer and it came bellowing out! Thank you Krauthammer, I can always count on you to point out hypocrisy (and you, Jim).

    The Left learned a lesson from the Soviet Union. "Civility" applies to everyone else's behavior but your own. "What's mine is mine, what's yours is negotiable". Frankly, I think we are seeing the new reincarnation of the Evil Empire in the American Left. Hypocrisy isn't just in the eye of the beholder: it's the contradiction of factual events.
