We'll try this in the vernacular, 'cause I'm in the mood:
Once again, these Rethug idjit, tinhorn-fascist types have stated that Biden's remark is a "new low". Ya know, this is the one of those "storm of the century" lines which come out of weathercasters every, oh 3 days or so. The intent of course, is to paint the President's Campaign (yes, I do capitalize words when they have to do with our President) as vitriolic, smear-based, and vile. They of course and of curse should frigging KNOW what a LOW campaign is, what with Willie Horton, lying about everything Al Gore did and didn't do, smearing President Clinton and the Presidency for being on the receiving end of a blowjob, and the pure out and out racist attacks upon our Present President being just a FEW of the examples which come to mind. There are THOUSANDS more, but my "favorite" one was the attack upon a Senator who had lost three limbs while serving his country. That was the MOST DESPICABLE MOMENT OF MY POLITICAL LIFE, worse than anything else because if they could and would do that to HIM, then they would do MUCH MUCH WORSE to ANYONE AND EVERYONE ELSE. And mark my words, they're gonna try...
These bastards have no idea how "LOW" we can go if we want to: we're more creative, wittier, and positively demonic when we want to be and I want to be, so if they want a fight, I think we can take it to them and give more than we get.

(40,184 posts)The republicans have had great success at getting democrats to tremble in the corner and pee in their pants. The exceptions are now, with a President made of steel and once in the past, when Bill Clinton was president. Their response to Bill Clinton not bending and whimpering was to impeach him. I think President Obama has them very frustrated.

They're far more uncivil towards our side, on a routine basis, but they can't take what they dish out.
