Civility? Republicans say, “Hell NO!!”

The chairman of the Democratic National Committee has asked the chairman of the Republican National committee to jointly sign a statement urging civility, and encouraging the elected officials of both parties to set the example. The Republicans have refused to join in. President Obama tried bipartisanship. In fact he kept on attempting to reach a compromise with the Republicans long after it became apparent to most that the right-wing had absolutely no intention of either working with or compromising with a black president.

The hate speech coming from the mouths of the crude and uncivilized Republican congressional leaders has encouraged their ignorant radical right-wing base, and politically motivated threats and violence against Democrats have skyrocketed. One black congressman was even spat upon by a right-wing protestor. In my opinion the leaders in the Republican party are increasingly advocating and encouraging ever more violent confrontations. Bricks thrown through windows, threats of assassination, etc. Right-wing radio and TV talk show hosts are blatantly lying and openly encouraging violence, but their Republican leaders continue to remain silent about it all.

It is sort of ironic. America has the finest president it has had in many years, but the Republicans are going totally off their rocker. Their true colors are coming through. The idea that a black man can be competent and far more civilized than them just makes them get redder in the face, and they continue spouting their increasingly cruel and dishonest hate speech.

And some people wonder why liberal Democrats increasingly are getting permits to carry concealed hand guns. This really is a matter of self defense from these ultra right-wing lunatics.
