[Dialogue] the President

[LAURELCG at aol.com]

I agree. I'm profoundly disappointed in Mr. Obama and his administration.  
First, for leaving the hawks to guard the economic henhouse (Geitner, for  
example), secondly, for taking on more unchecked, unbalanced executive power  
than even George Bush dared. (drone strikes and immigrant deportations  
increased) and this adds a third arena. I pray for orderly evolution to more  
equity and civility.
 
Thanks for sharing, Sunny,

Well, my FBI file  grows. I’ve written another president – not one I ever 
expected to. I followed  Steve Harrington’s link to the cartoon discussion 
and randomly (you’ve  noticed, it’s how my brain works, sighhhh…) a nearby 
link. There I found this  comment. So I simply asked the President to heed 
the words as they will make a  difference in the election: 
We  hear much about civility in public life, and many colleges now insert 
civility  discussions into the curriculum.  More and more, President Obama’s  
speeches are worth studying as examples of incivility, of precisely what a  
president should not do this far out from the election.  Cheap and  
puerile, they offer the guilty pleasures of raillery, a moment’s chuckle and a  
lengthening contempt for people of different views.  Such rhetoric coming  out 
of the president’s mouth poisons civic life, for every time he throws a  
cynical and insulting characterization to the audience, he licenses the  
blowhard talking head, the obnoxious columnist, and hordes of lesser incumbent  
politicians in their own campaigns to do the  same.


Your  thoughts?
