Those Damn Vitriolic Democrats!

.

This is lovely.  Jared Allen from the Hill writes…

In recent months, Democrats have been relentless in their attacks on Republicans for coordinating their efforts — political and policy — with business leaders.

[...]

It has only been in recent weeks that Republicans have begun to fight back with just as much force and vitriol.

Although top Republicans, including Boehner and Minority Whip Eric Cantor (R-Va.), were furious when Rep. Joe Barton (R-Texas) apologized to BP CEO Tony Hayward, Boehner hasn’t taken much other criticism lying down.

Instead of apologizing or backtracking from his comparison of the financial regulatory reform bill to “killing an ant with a nuclear weapon,” Boehner dug in.

Tell me, can this guy be more whacked out than by claiming that Dems are “relentless” in attacking Republicans with “force and vitriol”?  I wish it were true.  I wish Democrats had the backbone and conviction to take it to that pack of liars and smear merchants.  Sadly though, they don’t and the Ben Nelsons of the party don’t help.

And don’t miss the shallow attempt to make it appear that Republicans are victims of unwarranted attack by antagonistic forces on the Democratic side.   If Republicans are “fighting back”, Allen suggests, it is only because they’ve been forced to by evil libruls.  Too funny.

Was Jared around for the mad tea party town halls last year? Did he miss the death panel discussions? The “hell, no” rant from John Boehner before the final health care vote? Did he miss Virginia Foxx’s rants or the teabagger protests with Bachmann, Boehner et al on the Capitol steps? The Fox Gang? Rushbo?

And Jared, nothing says vitriol quite like some dude standing at a town hall where the President is speaking with a gun and the words “It is time to water the Tree of Liberty” on his t-shirt. Or a Hollywood celebrity suggesting the President is trying to start a civil war. No vitriol there, nope, no sirree.

Republicans, as pure as freshly driven mud…
