    Civility is necessary for productive discourse. I do not tolerate vulgar or profane language on my social media accounts, regardless of the philosophical opinions of the commentator. #Civility

        Trying to clarify guidelines: What if it’s a serious piece of journalism about the GOP’s refusal to act as a check on our profane president that includes some profanity? https://www.thedailybeast.com/us-officials-at-a-fucking-loss-over-latest-russia-sell-out …

        The only thing vulgar on your TF is your inability to respond to the irrepressible behavior of POTUS

        Dear Jeff, very civilized standards. I would love to hear your real time reaction then when the full extent of the president's capitulation to Putin is revealed. Will darn & shucks be enough to cover that?

        How civil is it to rip apart families seeking asylum? Is this how your ancestors were treated?

        Rep. James Lewis in 2012: "are we beyond those days where a woman can behave as a slut, but you can't call her a slut?" He defended those remarks today, and said he would make them again -- guess he didn't see your text on civil discourse?

        What is your response to Rep. Lewis? He's in your party, on your side of the fence. Since you feel it necessary to lecture your constituency on civil discourse, I expect to see evidence of the same directed towards Mr. Lewis.
