How About Them Nazis?<\/em>
\nby Steve MacDonald<\/p>\n

Given how touchy the New Hampshire Democrat Party (NHDP) leadership is about comments relating to Jews and Nazis<\/a> I wanted to wait a few days before addressing the words of Tennessee House Democrat Steve Cohen. Cohen made a few, lets call them off-hand remarks<\/a> about propaganda, Republicans and Nazis. He then did it again with spin<\/a>. And again<\/a>. (And..Zzzz<\/a>)<\/p>\n

I guess the new left wing civility is not much different from the old, nor is the NHDP’s selective silence on comments they deemed uncivil from a Republican but just ignore coming from one of their own.<\/p>\n

Or is their some handy excuse for Cohen’s remarks? <\/p>\n

“This is what happens when the electorate plucks a hate-monger like Alan Grayson from well of the House. It leaves an angry rhetorical void which the evolutionary process of secular-humanist, left wing “civility” must adapt to fill with vulgar comments by representatives from Tennessee.”<\/p>\n

No?<\/p>\n

“Cohen was taken out of context, besides he has no history of uncivil rhetoric.”<\/p>\n

According to Hot Air<\/a> Cohen was calling Republicans and TEA Party folks Klansman with fashion sense<\/a> less than a year ago, ignoring his own parties Klan ties sans fashion sense. (Thread count wasn’t such a big deal before Martha Stewart.)<\/p>\n

Or maybe it is because Cohen is a democrat and they all agree with him?<\/p>\n

That would explain the silence from the bluest parts of downtown Concord<\/a>. Cohen is just being Cohen and that civility stuff Obama was spewing at the less than somber Rah-rah requiem in Arizona… that wasn’t meant for democrats except perhaps to reload the rhetorical 60-cal for the next time they need to line up the cross-hairs on some right winger who uses the words ‘reload,’ or ‘cross-hair,’ or even Nazi in the wrong context.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
