President Obama, with a coarse voice, warned a crowd in Ohio: "They're fighting back. The empire is striking back."

I am certainly glad that Obama has given up insulting Republicans with phrases like "nazi", "pigs", "bankrolled by foreign interests", "clinging to religion" and insisting Republicans "take pride in being ignorant". He constantly uses straw men to lie about Republican beliefs and in the next breath demands Republicans raise the level of civility.

To show us the way to a civil discourse Obama has raised his own use of insults to simply imply that Republicans represent an "evil empire". I guess he thinks this is less insulting. I assure him, we don't need his advise or lies any more than we need his insults.
