Tom Nichols Puts On His Tone Police Girdle And Goes To Work On...

...Kamala Harris?

I am convinced there is a hitherto undocumented organ in the body of every professional, opinion-having Conservative.  Think of it as a kind of overactive ideological bladder that fills up with bile every few days.   And irrespective of what atrocities Trump has committed on any given day, to relieve the agony of their OIB, every 24 to 48 hours they absolutely must find a Democrat to piss on.

Sometimes these vitriolic micturitions are swaddled in Both Sides Do It diapers, and frequently -- like our example today -- the proximate cause of the outburst is so stupid and trivial that it leaves readers scratching their heads, wondering, "Really?  Someone actually got paid to be mad about that?" 

But the cause isn't the point.  Every 24 to 48 hours, these desperate souls must find some Democrat somewhere on which to unleash their pent-up bile, and as the corrosive acid of their creed begins to burn and sting, the "cause" they will use as cover for their splenetic opinion becomes less and less important.

And so, today, this.  From The Atlantic:

Politicians Aren’t Cool Enough to Curse This Much

Political leaders once watched their language. Now they delight in using obscenity.

By Tom Nichols

...Actually, the Mother of All Obscenities might be the one that includes mother, and if you haven’t heard it lately, former Vice President of the United States Kamala Harris would be happy to refresh your memory. Addressing a gathering in Los Angeles a few days ago, Harris delivered her verdict on the current Trump administration: “These motherfuckers are crazy.”...

Nichols goes on to namecheck others, and ultimately relieves himself of the balance of his bile into a big, Both Sides Do It diaper.  

The Democrats have some true public-swearing champs, but President Donald Trump and the wannabe tough guys who surround him are no slouches in the profanity competition.

But he had to start his laundry list of disapproval with Harris.

Because that is his nature. 

Also, for the record, Nichols knows nothing about what constitutes "cool".
