Ping!
Just before Republican convention, now they are concerned about civility. Typical of RATS. Little late for civility. Obama calling Romney a felon, tax cheat, and murderer blew that out of the water.
One of the few times I think Cardinal Dolan should have kept to himself.
Obama will spit in his face if he thought it would swing a State his way.
Romney probably would. Obama’d have to shut down the campaign to do it.
Someone else who craves attention giving worthless advice. Have there been any duels fought, as there were in the early history of the US? Is anyone getting beaten up on the floor of the House or Senate, as we see regularly in South Korea?
,The Democrats can accuse Republicans of felony and murder and the Republicans basically roll over and take it. If they don’t respect themselves, why should others respect them? Once there was such a thing as honor, and one’s good name was prized above gold.
Has Cardinal Dolan become the Emily Post for voting?This is not about turning the other cheek. This is about what is morally wrong.
Good old duels-—when Virtue had meaning.
With the usurpation of the right that men used to have to defend their honor and families and reputations-—by the court of law——and since that court is corruptible and doesn’t care about defamation of character in the Media—etc.
Virtue is dying
—as long as the people are not held responsible for what they say in the public square. We need to return flogging at least, or the stocks for humiliating people who intentionally lie and defame. People should always be held accountable and defamation is really extremely harmful. The effects can destroy people’s livelihoods and all relationships. (and does).
This is why our country is in dire straights-—the press can lie and they are never held accountable for the lies they perpetuate-—making them just like Goebbels’ newspapers/movies. Most people believe the lies the press feeds them daily. They should be closed down and discredited when they intentionally lie.
As always, the extreme left-wingers want Republicans to be civil as they continued their hate-filled, mean-spirited attacks.
A so-called civility pledge would largely prevent Romney from telling the truth about the RATs. And the RATs won’t live up to anything they sign anyway. Don’t sign it!
The cardinal should avoid subjects about which he has no clue.
The LESS charitable interpretation of this inane request is that he’s in the tank for the Kenyan anti-Christ.
There is no religious prerogative for civility in politics.
The purpose of politics is to determine the fate of a nation and its people. If there is no great violence in doing so, to demand civility is to insist during brain surgery that by the rules of etiquette, a shrimp fork is more polite than a scalpel.
Politics has never, nor will it ever be, civil.
If you’re a politician and you want a friend, get a dog.
I’ll be posting this on every Dolan thread.

Dolan has not a clue as to what is morally wrong.
Hey Cardinal.....Obama LIED TO YOUR FACE!!!!! Go tell HIM to be civil!
You are so right.
Put them in Octagon. Lets get on with it.
