The Summer Civility Died
September 14, 2009 in Health Care Crisis, Rants, republicans
We Americans are not particularly noted for our civility and decorum. As travelers abroad we are considered loud and rude.
We respect “straight shooters” in conversation and don’t much care for those who “beat around the bush.” (Read the sexual politics into that sentence as you wish.)
But we still try to pay some lip service to the idea of just being polite if only for the sake of our mothers.
