On Civility

Ruth Marcus has a piece up discussing President Bush's derisive habit of dropping the "ic" whenever referring to the Democratic party. I know it may seem like a minor annoyance to some, but it goes along way to show just how insincere the President is about the need for a civil and bipartisan discourse when he can't even bring himself to refer to opposition by their preferred appellation.

Then again, this predilection may be due to a deficiency in civics. Perhaps it's time this President, and many in Washington, sit in on a few lessons.
