I guess it's hopeless to expect an iota of civility from these people. I suspect it's a generational thing, that the 60s brats have all grown up (physically) and now run the Democrat Party. If that's the case, we're all going to have to wait for their generation to die off before the Democrats return to some acceptable level of respectability. We can also expect them to continue to lose elections until that time, too...that's the plus-side.
They don't seem capable of even thinking in a respectable manner. I have said elsewhere that the RATs will have to embrace Harry Truman instead of Karl Marx if they ever want to regain the ground they have lost in public opinion over the last 50 years. They have confused "libertine" with "liberty".
And more than that, they will have to really mean it instead of just trying to pull the wool over the eyes of the electorate. What's the old joke, "How do you know when a demonRAT is lying? Just see if his mouth is moving."
This "60s brat" spent a considerable amount of time working to re-elect that "60s brat", GWB.
