Undue Credit

Mr. D. on the Wellstone Tuscon memorial with the President, and on the left’s newfound love of “civility”:
Civility comes from mutual agreement. It cannot be imposed by one side on the other. And it certainly can’t come until those who were party to the baseless calumnies heaped in recent days step forward and accept their responsibility for it. We can have an honest debate if we have honest debaters.
President Obama gave his allies on the Left a chance to climb down from the untenable place they have chosen to occupy. It is my hope that those allies will see fit to use the opportunity he has provided. If they do, the debate that so many people claim to desire will happen. If not — game on.
For myself? I’ll sit in the back of the bus, and hide my knive so nobody brings a gun.

Thanks, Mitch! Of course, I have zero confidence that the Krugmans of the world will climb down, so keeping your knife handy seems prudent.

Can we all win this one for Gabby?

Of course by “knife” you nuts mean “9 mm Glock with a 33-round magazine.”
Just for personal safety, of course.
