    The New Civility:

    "Now look here, you Baltic gas passer... " - Mik, 6/14/08

    The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

        Perhaps you're unaware of LBJ, who made Trump look like a courtier at Versailles?

          In the last 20 years, perhaps he did.

          But Biden's better because he "won't go there," right? And, remind me of which presidential candidate, said to a sitting president, on national TV, "You're a clown. You're a buffoon."

          Yeah, the new civility, indeed.

            Are you aware of Diogenes? How far would you want to walk this back? Do we really have to play a game as tired as "which party started mudslinging"?

            Part of the Biden brand is (and no I'm not defending this), "we have the backbone to stand up to Trump's prejudices and douchebaggery," not LBJ's or Diogenes'. Biden's rhetoric has very much to do with the administration's positioning against the previous president and his brand of politics.

              And the biggest part of his brand is "I'm not Trump." That's how he got elected, while hiding out in his basement.

              Guess what?

              He is, and he proved that with that comment.

                Uh, no. I'm getting more pissed off at crazy Grandpa Joe every day.

                Well, like I said about Trump. We need a Mandela, not a Twitter troll.

                  Errmmm... so publicly calling someone "a stupid son-of-a-bitch" shows backbone and sets the example against douchebaggery?

                    Yes, in the minds of today's liberals, it absolutely does. Joe don't take no patriarchal misogynist shit from nobody.

                    and sets the example against douchebaggery?

                    Yes because they're on the right side of history, so, whatever they do is fine.

                    What again is your point? 😄

                    It seems my point is that you're not paying much attention to what liberals currently think.

                    Please love yourself.

                              Part of the Biden brand is (and no I'm not defending this), "we have the backbone to stand up to Trump's prejudices and douchebaggery," not LBJ's or Diogenes'. Biden's rhetoric has very much to do with the administration's positioning against the previous president and his brand of politics.

                                You couldn't pay me to be on Twitter everyday.

                                Well, maybe. But we're talking good money....

                                Those who cheered as J-6 American prisoners were locked in solitary for 18 months without trial, now suddenly fight tooth and nail for foreign terrorists’ "due process". — Buck Sexton

                                  You know, President Bidenhas an opportunity here to pivot. A well intentioned apology and a more open approach to his political adversaries could turn this Presidency around.

                                        And the biggest part of his brand is "I'm not Trump." That's how he got elected, while hiding out in his basement.

                                        Guess what?

                                        He is, and he proved that with that comment.

                                        You chaps keep electing 'em. You've only got yourselves to blame.

                                        You need a bit of the BoJo gravitas. He insults people in ancient Greek, just like Diogenes.

                                        I was only joking

                                          Trump paved the way here.

                                          In the last 20 years, perhaps he did.

                                          But Biden's better because he "won't go there," right?

                                          Uh, no. I'm getting more pissed off at crazy Grandpa Joe every day.

                                          Yeah, the new civility, indeed.

                                          Well, like I said about Trump. We need a Mandela, not a Twitter troll.

                                          Yes, a necklace is much more persuasive than an impolite twitter post.
