When will we stop?

A Democrat misspeaks (usually low level) and the Republicans, with help from the press, push for an apology and the Democrats usually cave. Republicans call Democrats un-American, anti-American, Communists, threaten harm, and refuse to apologize. Often these taunts come from leaders in the party.

When will Democrats learn that Republicans are bullies, if the aren't punched in the face then they will never stop. There should be no apologies from Democrats, if pushed by the press Democrats should simply state, once members of the Republican Party start condemning their own behavior we can offer them the same respect. Once they leave their adolescence stage and are able to properly speak the words "Democratic Party," then we can have adult conversations.

Note: In all of the times I have seen "Democrat Party" used I have only seen Chris Matthews correct the person. That leaves all other talking heads of open to the critique of allowing the childish behavior.

2. It's time to tell the Republicans to go to hell.

That's what normal people do when they are constantly insulted and called names.

3. Sometimes watching the Democrats go against the Republicans

is like watching "Ravishing Ronald" go against "The Crusher"

4. The Dialogue And Debate Is Over There Will Be Ugly Confrontation Eventually.

At some point there will have to be an open and ugly confrontation. Personally, I am glad that I am not a politician. I tell my representatives that they almost have to be saints with what they put up with on a daily session here in Colorado. These people are smug, rude, hateful, vicious, uncivil and sadistic.

There is a time when one of these assholes is going to find themselves on the floor and wonder how they got there. Violence is never the solution to a problem. But I do not know what you do when someone is psychologically abusing you all the time. And the abuse is constant and growing.

When something happens to a Republican that is bad I really do not care. And I am to the point and it is so bad that if I were in a situation with one of these jerks and they were hurt I might be tempted to not help them. I am tired of being told to shut up that they are in charge.

What really makes me furious is that not a single Republican asshole has corrected Nugent. You have to assume that they agree with him. And I know that this election will be the most hateful racist election in our history.

As far as I am concerned they are using code and telling their followers it is ok to get violent.

5. There is a reason they act they way they do.

They are weak, they don't apologize because to them that shows weakness, which is why they often double down. Their false idols are most always wimps. Nugent with his sitting in feces and urine, John Wayne with his fake toughness, Ronnie, George, all fake tough guys.

I am suggesting that it won't even need to come to violence, just standing up as calling them out will likely do it. If not we punch a few in the face and it will be all over.
