About that new tone

President Obama got called on the carpet by a tea party organizer for his failure to police his V.P.’s adherence to the “new tone” required of politicians in the wake of the tragic shooting of Arizona Rep. Gabrielle Giffords.

In the end, Obama denied that Joe “The Mouth” Biden had called Republicans terrorists and dismissed the complaint.

OK. Fine. Forget about Biden.

How about his hand-picked attack-dog and DNC chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz?

Ever since her elevation to her new perch atop the Democratic National Committee, DWS has generated a great deal of attention for her unique brand of partisan invective -- from accusing the GOP of seeking to "literally drag" the country back to the Jim Crow era, to labeling the Tea Party "tyrants," to conjuring a Republican "war on women."

It’s a much better world now that we’re not so mean to each other.
