CIVILITY IS THE NEW CENSORSHIP

CIVILITY IS THE NEW CENSORSHIP: "SADLY, OUR FRIENDS ON THE LEFT HONESTLY DON’T GET IT

“Civility as we pursue it is the ability to disagree with others while respecting their sincerity and decency.” –CivilPolitics.org. Consider the following:

“At a time when our discourse has become so sharply polarized, at a time when we are far too eager to lay the blame for all that ails the world at the feet of those who think differently than we do, it’s important for us to pause for a moment and make sure that we are talking with each other in a way that heals, not a way that wounds.” –Barack Obama, January, 2011

“If Latinos sit out the election instead of saying, ‘We’re going to punish our enemies and we’re gonna reward our friends who stand with us on issues that are important to us, if they don’t see that kind of upsurge in voting in this election, then I think it’s going to be harder and that’s why I think it’s so important that people focus on voting on November 2.” –Barack Obama, November, 2010"
