A call for civility - soundly rejected!

Last night during his State of the Union speech, President Bush made a plea for a return to civility.

"In a system of two parties, two chambers, and two elected branches, there will always be differences and debate. But even tough debates can be conducted in a civil tone, and our differences cannot be allowed to harden into anger. To confront the great issues before us, we must act in a spirit of good will and respect for one another - and I will do my part."

Before the night was out, the idea of civility was soundly rejected. Objecting to the lefts favorite moonbat being removed from congress for not following their rules, Rep. Pete Stark (D-CA) had this to say:

Some other members were upset about Sheehan's arrest. "I'm still trying to find out why the president's Gestapo had to arrest Cindy Sheehan in the gallery. ... It shows he still has a thin skin,'' said Rep. Pete Stark, D-Fremont.

What a moroon. Now, Stark has only been a member of Congress for 33 years so maybe he is unaware of their rules yet or the fact that Capital Police don't work for the president and are normally not referred to as the president's Gestapo. Making him a bigger fool is the fact that those rules were enforced in a bi-partisan way. The wife of a Republican congressman was thrown out of the SOTU speech.

The wife of Rep. C.W. Bill Young, R-Indian Shores, told a newspaper that she was ejected during the State of the Union address for wearing a T-shirt that says, "Support the Troops Defending Our Freedom."

When dealing with people like Stark, the president's call for civility was a waste of his breath. Stark has a long history of nuttiness which you can read about here, here, and here.
