Democrats+government shutdown=a new era of civility?

  We all remember the aftermath of the Arizona shooting, don’t we? The president, an Arizona sheriff, and the Democrats in general tried to blame the vitriolic, half-filled rhetoric coming from the right as the reason for the shooting. All those mentioned above urged the Tea Party and the Republicans to enter a new era of civility because, after all, the rhetoric coming from the right can entice an unstable person to commit violence because that person would not be able to comprehend the difference between figurative speech and literal speech. The left tried to blame the words and pictures of Sarah Palin, Glenn Beck, and the Tea Party for the actions of a deranged madman.

  But the left just doesn’t seem to be able to live up to the standards that they ask the right to live up to and this budget debate and looming government shutdown provide us with the latest example of liberal hypocrisy.

  With the budget debate dragging on the left has resorted precisely to the type of attacks that they accuse the right of committing. Louise Slaughter stated that the new Republicans were sent to Washington “to kill women:”

“In ’94 people were elected simply to come here to kill the National Endowment for the Arts. Now they’re here to kill women”

  And she didn’t stop there, as she compared us to the Nazis:

 It’s sort of like an old German Nazi movie. Show me your papers!”

  How is that for the new era of civility in the public discourse? But as if that were not lesson enough from the Democrats that their mantra is do as I say, not as I do comes this from  Eleanor Holmes:

We are absolutely outraged. This is the functional equivalent of bombing innocent civilians
