The "new tone"
Since the Left worked overtime to try and blame the horrific Giffords shooting on Sarah Palin and/or the Right (are they crosshairs or surveyors symbols??), I've been keeping track of the "new tone" that Obama called on us to use.
"Independent" ute4ever's casual use of one of the terms made me think it's time to post the results so far:
President Obama, we turn our lonely eyes to you, January 13, 2011: Quote:

A couple of awesome new entries for the "new tone" this week.
First, Obama again calls for civility: Quote:
EDIT: And one more I missed from last year:
I'm all for lowering the rhetoric. |
Toning down the rhetoric is more political rhetoric.
http://hotair.com/archives/2011/08/1...t-in-michigan/ It will continue to worsen. What is disappointing is that the perpetrators continue to argue for the morally high ground, while actually being the perpetrators of the harsh rhetoric. IOW, when the rhetoric works, such as Republicans wish to ruin Medicare, the Dems are all for it. What is really happening is more and more voters are tuning out the politicians. This is dangerous because it makes us less informed, but what options do we have? We can listen to meaningless drivel and insults which provide no analysis, or we can tune it out. The more difficult route of paying attention while tuning out the BS will be done by fewer and fewer persons. I admit, I don't pay attention as much as I did decades ago. The political discussion grinds one down. |
A nice new one today:
EDIT: Heh, there's even video: |

The President, who spoke at the same podium 20 minutes later, said he was "proud" of Hoffa. The White House refused further comment, but Obama did have this to say back in February: Quote:
Heh. Quote:

Let me guess... the point is that it's all Obama's fault. You could have saved yourself the effort and just said the conclusion you were going to arrive at anyways. |
Nancy Pelosi. Leading the Democrat party in showing that "only a more civil and honest public discourse can help us face up to the challenges of our nation." |

Meanwhile, today's entry comes from our sitting Vice President:
In case you're missing the context, he's wishing his political opponents had some idea of what it is like to be robbed and raped. Because of course, if they did, they'd pass Obama's bill. Remember: Obama is "all for lowering the rhetoric." EDIT: Audio only on Youtube, here: |
