Back to ‘civility’…or the lack thereof

From the get-go, the debate over the Tucson massacre quickly snowballed into every liberal media entity pointing the finger at Palin, Rush, the tea party, you name it. The MSM told us this discourse was the Right’s fault. So now we start yet another week with Sunday’s pathetic Meet the Press Schumer/Coburn interview from David Gregory that I'm sure everyone's seen by now (Rush, Hannity, Levin and others have covered it throughout the day), in which Gregory attempts to blame ALL discourse on the Right...umm, did he forget about the Bush/Republican-hating deranged Left over the past decade?!

Of course not...but that's to be swept under the rug; afterall, we are talking about the MSM mouthpieces of the Dem administration. Now that Republicans have begun to take back power, NOW we've got to maintain the Left's notion of 'civility' (remember, that means "Shut Up!"). And for the wishy-washy Coburn to be the ‘Republican’ on the show…Heaven forbid they invite anyone from the senior class with a backbone (DeMint) or any of the freshmen (Rubio)!


But if there’s one glimmer of light in the ‘civility’ debate, it’s that Americans aren’t buying the liberal media blitz anymore.

Perhaps we should all take Levin's suggestion and just email Gregory (and other mouth-pieces for the Left) a sample of REAL investigative journalism, like what Michelle Malkin has been doing in the short span of a mere week, starting with this one from last Monday...
“The progressive “climate of hate:” An illustrated primer, 2000-2010” by Michelle Malkin

‎...and continuing the discussion of blaming the Right with regards to the "amnesia-wracked blamestream media"...
“Blame Righty: A condensed history” by Michelle Malkin

...and finally culminating into an MLK Day observation/proposal...
“MLK Day proposal: Give the race card a rest” by Michelle Malkin

These pieces are crammed full of investigative reporting that I’d encourage everyone to look at from time to time as a memory refresher. THIS is research authenticated by real facts, David Gregory! How's your brand of 'civility' looking now?!
