Imagine Barack Obama lecturing us on how to be “civil” in political discourse. Really? Here he is at the National Prayer Breakfast, via his lapdog media outlet Talking Points Memo.

“At this morning’s national prayer breakfast in Washington D.C., President Obama made a birther joke.

Calling once again for a return to civility in politics, the president declared that civility is “not a sign of weakness” and that he’s “the first to confess I’m not always right.”

“Surely you can question my policies without questioning my faith,” the president said, pausing for a few seconds before adding, “or, for that matter, my citizenship.”

The crowd laughed and applauded.”

Yet this is the same guy who wrote:

““I need you to go out and talk to your friends and talk to your neighbors. I want you to talk to them whether they are independent or whether they are Republican. I want you to argue with them and get in their face.“

Well that certainly is civil isn’t it. Since he was at a prayer breakfast talking about keeping the faith perhaps he consider the words of Christ, “Physician heal yourself”.
