Once again, actor Jason Alexander is calling conservatives’ patriotism into question. This time, it’s because the Right is supposedly a loathsome cesspool teeming with “insults and vulgarity.”
Many followers backed him up, natch.

@IJasonAlexander I agree with you on that. What makes me mad is the disrespect they have for this president.What happened to common courtesy
— Harold Christian (@HaroldSkip1) September 5, 2012
Oh, that’s right. The Left always remains above the fray, setting an example of respect and civility for us all. No “insults or vulgarity” there, right?
@IJasonAlexander . Oh please. What about what Bill Mahr called Sarah Palin?You condone that? Most on the left are far worse than the right.
— Donna (@Tiki8359) September 5, 2012
@IJasonAlexander hate to point it out, but the LEFT did exactly the same thing during the #RNC. Sorry, but Dems are really no better.

@IJasonAlexander-That's rich. Indeed, your leftist dogma demands CONSTANTLY demonizing ALL conservatives ALL the time. Leftist HYPOCRITE!
— CV McDonald⭐️⭐️⭐️ (@vdld) September 5, 2012
@IJasonAlexander What about the left George? Hmmmm? That vulgar and sick Jason Biggs sure comes to mind.

Perhaps Mr. Alexander missed Twitchy’s extensive coverage of misogynist actor Jason Biggs tweeting about sexually assaulting Janna Ryan?
Just in case Alexander isn’t as devoted a reader of Twitchy as his death wish-spewing comrade Ellen Barkin, let’s take a walk down liberal civility lane, courtesy of the Twitchy archives.
#FUCKROMNEY: Hate and death threats greet Romney’s RNC speech
Liberals to Ann Romney: Happy Birthday, bitch. Hope you die.
New Tone alert: Libs attack Ann Romney as ‘cunt,’ ‘bitch,’ ‘whore’
“Kill Scott Walker”: Angry libs flood Twitter with death threats after Wisconsin recall defeat
Jon Lovitz treated to another round of liberal hate after criticizing Obama
Stop whining, wing nuts! Governor Nikki Haley totally had a beating coming
Romney haters to Nicki Minaj: Die, Uncle Tom bitch!
Sick: Wikipedia entry calls Mia Love ‘dirty, worthless whore’ and ‘House Nigger’
Tolerant libs give Condoleezza Rice the ‘Mia Love’ treatment
Justice Thomas dissents, Left hurls vile racial slurs ‘house nigga,’ ‘Uncle Tom’
Need we go on?

Update:
Alexander took some time to respond to conservatives upset at being branded unpatriotic. Of course, he turned the “dialogue” into a smugfest:

@fgnewton ur correct, no civility from both sides. But I wasn't being uncivil. Now, as 4 Bush, is that the guy&team ur whole party avoided?
— jason alexander (@IJasonAlexander) September 5, 2012
@IJasonAlexander MSNBC much?
— S. Michael Yo (@S_Michael_Yo) September 5, 2012
@S_Michael_Yo yes, and I FOX much, too. I actually listen to both sides, nauseating as that can be.
— jason alexander (@IJasonAlexander) September 5, 2012
@carterm1 Michelle, you are NOT boring. You make fine points. Civility is vital and rare, all around. But I had made a civil remark.
— jason alexander (@IJasonAlexander) September 5, 2012
News flash, Jason: Republicans make civil remarks all the time and are vilified for it.
@IJasonAlexander don't act so pure. The vile on the left is so much more and u would see if you got out of your lib bubble
— miller (@millertime32) September 5, 2012
@millertime32 how do you presume to know anything about my life? You know some of my views, but nothing of me. So why the assumptions?
— jason alexander (@IJasonAlexander) September 5, 2012
Assumptions? Alexander seems to be pretty good at making those about conservatives.

@Rasmus_56 I respectfully hated that administration. So did your party, if the convention is any indication.
— jason alexander (@IJasonAlexander) September 5, 2012
@IJasonAlexander .I'm all for that 2. Although,Jason, u have to be honest in the realization that the bias in the media is majority democrat
— chris mazz (@chrismazzsr) September 5, 2012
@chrismazzsr Fox news, Wall St. journal, NY Post, Washington Times, US World& News. I can keep going. No, I don't agree there's a bent.
— jason alexander (@IJasonAlexander) September 5, 2012
We’d be more than happy to educate Jason on the lapdog media.
@redswhinez I said I enjoyed 1st Lady's speech. I was attacked: idiot, moron, lefty and obscenities. Is denigrating the 1st lady patriotic?
— jason alexander (@IJasonAlexander) September 5, 2012
@chrismazzsr it can be. Not utopian, but better. But we have to do it, you and me, one conversation at a time.
— jason alexander (@IJasonAlexander) September 5, 2012
@flagramah Not sure I understand why u reject narrative. Do u have some evidence of him being rich or well off? Regardless, yes I can..
— jason alexander (@IJasonAlexander) September 5, 2012
@flagramah ..be snarky, but I try not to be mean or uncivil. I have never disrespected a lady, let alone a 1st lady. I said I liked her….
— jason alexander (@IJasonAlexander) September 5, 2012
@flagramah ..then I got pummeled by some on the Right. They make a big stance of being patriotic. I don't think degrading 1st ladies is so.
— jason alexander (@IJasonAlexander) September 5, 2012
@Tiki8359 Not sure what you mean. I don't support those candidates. but I also don't denigrate their wives and don't support people who do.
— jason alexander (@IJasonAlexander) September 5, 2012
Neither do we. See the above stroll down liberal civility lane.
We’ll leave you with this mini-lecture from George Costanza:
Well, here's a thought, Tweeters, how about we try to tweet w.out insults or slurs till after election. Think we can do it?
— jason alexander (@IJasonAlexander) September 5, 2012
Got involved in a Twitter dialogue today about "civility online". Clearly the political scene is highly charged (cont) http://t.co/LhnGzHjG
