Liberal Democrat Civility

DNC chair Debbie Wasserman makes it pretty clear that she has absolutely no intention of answering the question or addressing what was said by Jimmy Hoffa Jr. as a lead in speaker to President Obama's labor day rally speech in Michigan this weekend.

And she makes it perfectly clear that she isn't going to "focus on the language."

So this is the civility that this administration and their minions have repeatedly attempted to refocus their opposition to? Yet no sooner than they speak of civility and call for common decency in discourse, they are right back to their old Saul Alinsky playbook of demonizing their opposition at the first opportunity. After which, they want to stand there blank faced and annoyed that anyone might actually take notice of their hypocrisy.

Or worse, that others might actually take exception to it.

In light of yesterday's Jimmy Hoffa Jr. post, I thought this from Small Dead Animals would be good to link to:

Civility Aug 11, 2009: President Obama calls for civility in the health care debate.

Feb 4, 2010: President Obama calls for civility at National Prayer Breakfast.

Jan 12, 2011: President Obama calls for civility after Tucson shooting.

And this from the same source:

Immediately after Hoffa threatened his fellow Americans, Obama had the opportunity to encourage him to strive for civility. He did not. Instead, he included him in a list of folks he's "proud" of.   h/t Marc in Calgary.

Obama isn't who they told us he was...  he is who we told you he was.
