Across the nation, and throughut the month of August, Americans as well as the world at large witnessed townhalls being turned by the extreme Republican conservatives into spectacles of incivility and nastiness as Republicans transformed these townhalls into platforms for the trumpeting of their talking points so as to advance their political narattives. Most would agree, however, very little did we expect that the Republican boorishness and nastiness would in fact make its way into the halls of Congress in the form of Rep. Joe Wilson's insult of the U.S. president during a speech to Congress. With its daily invocation of family values, moral rectitude and self-righteousness this once-great-party turned into a fringe grouping is faced with the reality of its intellecual and moral bankrupcy. Thus Republicans must be reminded that their nastiness and intellectual poverty will not for ever remain a cover for their truly inhuman policy prescription.
