Since we were talking about the Supreme Court nominations, perhaps you could show us some "uncivil" remarks the Repubs made against Ginsburg, a Clinton nominee...

KLP,

My point was, and is, there wasn't a very public lack of civility when parties changed sides. There wasn't such a lack for the 40 years the Dems were in complete control of everything.

The Repubs were much more "gentlemanly and courteous" about their disagreements with the Dems in public. As a rule, anyway.

I mean really! Just as a for instance, do you remember such vileness when Ruth Bader Ginsburg was nominated for the court by a Democratic President...? And how about Breyer?


I responded to your second paragraph, which referred to your first. You didn't bring the Ginsburg nomination up until the third.
