I am always amused by the calls to restore civility to our political debates. Do these people really want to go back to those days?
Yeah, if only we could go back to that Golden Era of Civility and Rational Debate.
Look, people disagree on how our government should be run. That's why we have elections. I'm grateful we settle these disputes with ballots and not bombs, and don't expect too much more than that.
Call me when a US Senator is beaten with a cane by another member on the floor.
