On Political Incivility [Video]

In this segment with CNN's "Rick's List" host Rick Sanchez we make a sincere effort to sift through the charges and counter-charges regarding threats and violence in the health care debate. The bottom line at a time like this, where things really could become deadly: Political leaders on both sides should appear together and denounce violence. I agree with Republican John Boehner's suggestion that these passions are best channeled at the ballot box. That goes for both parties.

Sincere effort or not...still a total failure. You both didn't really sift through anything. Where was the mention of Republican lawmakers inciting the Teabagger crowd from the balcony of the House holding up Klll the Bill signs and waving the "Dont Tread on Me" Flag? Where was the mention of "You lie! and "Baby klller!" Are these not just as much a part of this as anything? Where was the mention of Rep. King calling for a Czech style velvet revolution? Where was the mention of Michael Steele telling Nancy Pelosi to get ready for the firing line? Mention of Nancy Pelosi in flames on the RNC website? The mention of Michelle Bachmann calling for her base to be "armed and ready"? Of Glenn Beck calling progressives a "cancer" and a "disease"? No Rush Limbaugh? No Sean Hannity? No 95% of Fox "news"? Where was the mention of Teabaggers spitting on a black member of congress and spewing hateful and anti-gay/racist names at John Lewis and Barney Frank? Or of John Boehner predicting Armageddon? No mention of Eric Cantor calling a random bullet fired up in the air an attempt to target him and then accusing Dems of using these terrorlst acts as political weapons? Where was the mention of Teabagger leaders giving their right wing terrorlst members the addresses of Democratic Lawmakers and then a day after a gas line is cut at the Lawmakers brothers' home? What exactly did you two fools sift through???
