That 'new civility' is awfully right handed, don't you think?

Military metaphors to the left, military metaphors for politics to the.....left.

The moratorium on martial metaphors was brief. The Hill quotes Jennifer Crider of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee: “The DCCC is targeting the 14 districts that were won by both President Obama and Sen. Kerry as well as the 47 additional districts that were won by President Obama.” Carla Marinucci writes in the San Francisco Chronicle: “Gov. Jerry Brown, a battle-scarred survivor in California politics who has vanquished well-armed opponents such as billionaire Meg Whitman, has said his strategic guidebook for decades has been a slim, 2,500-year-old volume: ‘The Art of War’ by Chinese general Sun Tzu.” And at Politico, Ben Smith reports: “The liberal group Media Matters has quietly transformed itself in preparation for what its founder, David Brock, described in an interview as an all-out campaign of ‘guerrilla warfare and sabotage’ aimed at the Fox News Channel.”
