This is ridiculous, irresponsible.

Durbin compared American GIs to Nazis and Communists. He maintained this blood libel for several days, retreating into a non-apology apology only after Democrat powerhouse Dick Daley said the remarks were “disgraceful.” (Daley had a son serving in the Army at the time.)
Durbin also torpedoed decent, fair minded Southern judicial candidates with fabricated out of whole cloth charges of racism. One , Mississippi Judge Pickering, had the support of most of Mississippi's prominent black leaders. A slanderer and a character assassin: some guy to be lecturing the rest of us about civility and measured rhetoric.
