And people complain that the national political debate has gotten uncivil.

Funny, that's what the left says about the word evil as in phrases such as, oh, "evil empire" (Reagan), "axis of Evil" (Bush).

Goodness are you actually arguing that I'm wrong to call the left evil?!? It's exactly accurate and it's a GREAT word that I will not give up.

When did either Reagan or Bush use the word "evil" to describe American citizens?

As a matter of fact, when did they use the term to describe anything other than a system of government, or a political ideology?

Don't flatter yourself here, neither Ronnie or Bush would stoop to the level that you're stooping to here.

No. That's what I say when you label people who disagree with you politically as evil. Hillary's a power-hungry bitch, but she's not evil. I would have no problems, for example, letting her babysit my kids. Same with John Kerry. Or even Al Sharpton.

Call them whatever you want. But remember, neither Ronald Reagan nor George Bush have ever called their political opponents evil. Any idea why that is?
