I didn’t notice when it happened…but apparently our nation is now at the point where if a political leader utters an opinion which a sensitive group considers to be derogatory…not physically threatening, mind you, but just negative/derogatory, it is assumed that said leader might well be expected to resign from office.
How boring.
How colorless.
How insensitive to the exquisiteness of artful, critical language and thought.
Good grief!
Perhaps we are misreading the news…
This week a news anchor said that such a leader is not expecting to have to resign because of a critical statement made on facebook prior to that leader’s election to office.
Should any right thinking citizen expect a resignation?
Emasculation of civil discourse.
