Maybe that's the rhetoric that needs to be dialed back a little.....the rhetoric in videos and song lyrics as opposed to political dialogue.

Apparently political discourse could be quite vitriolic in the early to mid-19th century with newspapers (which were sometimes bought and paid for by political parties..) even going so far as accusing politicians they didn't support of being syphilitic and other outlandish slurs.
