Ah, the civility

Then:

Escorted by four Broward Sheriff’s Office deputies, U.S. Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz solemnly called for more civility in political debate Sunday, a day after a gunman shot and critically injured her close friend Gabrielle Giffords in Arizona.

Now:

Democratic Rep. [and DNC chair] Debbie Wasserman Schultz stood by her comments that Republican Rep. Paul Ryan’s budget proposal is a “death trap for seniors” in a CNN interview Thursday.

It’s almost as though they never meant any of that civility stuff. Like they were only try to score cheap political points or something. . .

POSTSCRIPT: It’s beside the point to the whole civility swindle, but it’s also worth noting that Wasserman-Schultz was lying about the Ryan plan.
