One more example of Obama's "civility" in politics. If these thugs are able to win by these tactics the country is in big trouble! Did the major media report this?

Practice what you preach, Mr. President
President Obama continually calls for more civil discourse pointing the finger at conservatives as the guilty ones. But he ought to look at his hand and see where all the other fingers are pointing. Incivility is a staple of the liberal establishment, including their disparaging and offensive description of the tea party movement as "tea baggers," a sexual term for a form of fellatio.
Ah, but "civility" and "elevated debate" are relative terms and the left defines them according to their own skewed sense of righteousness. Obama and company are the good and holy so everything they do is just, right, and blessed by the gods. Anyone who criticizes them is, by definition, uncivil. They, on the other hand, are never uncivil by definition. They are just telling the truth and stating the facts about those evil, right wing, homophobic, misogynistic fanatics who are attached to their guns and religion. The same leftists who called police pigs and military vets baby-killers during the Viet Nam war are now claiming to be the arbiters of elevated debate.
Obama's PR guru, Robert Gibbs, was recently asked during a press briefing whether the president used the term to describe the conservative movement that he has continually attacked for their influence in the Republican Party. Gibbs said he didn't know but would check. It would not be surprising if he did. The president talks out of both sides of his mouth. And here's an example via columnist James Fitzpatrick who in an article titled Purveyors of Vitriol gave a number of illustrations including the following:
One last example: the lesbian comedian Wanda Sykes. At last spring's White House Correspondents' Dinner, she joked, "Rush Limbaugh, I hope his kidneys fail. He needs a good waterboarding, that's what he needs." The London Telegraph's U.S. editor, Toby Harnden, was at the dinner. He wrote, "President Obama seemed to think this bit was pretty hilarious, grinning and chuckling and turning to share the joke with the person sitting on his right. There's not much room for differing interpretations of what Sykes said. She called LImbaugh a terrorist and a traitor, suggested that he be tortured and wished him dead. What was his crime? Hoping that Obama's policies -- which he views as socialist -- will fail. That's way, way beyond reasoned debate or comedy and Obama's reaction to it was astonishing.... Obama laughing when someone wishes Limbaugh dead? Hard to take from the man who promised a new era of cvility and elevated debate in Washington."

The same leftists who called police pigs and military vets baby-killers during the Viet Nam war are now claiming to be the arbiters of elevated debate. It's a laughable construct, of course, and just goes to prove, once again, that the three ring circus in Washington is filled with clowns, starting with the clown-in-chief.

More on Civility and Tea Party Racism
Black conservatives may be scarcer than hen's teeth, but they sure are articulate and they are multiplying. Watch out, you lefties playing the race card. People are beginning to wake up to the fact that it's a cheat you're pulling out of your sleeve.
