Wait, what? What kind of violent rhetoric is this? The “tippy-top” absurdity from Politico aside, who will denounce this uncivil talk?

Yep, according to Politico a Dem official likened the shutdown to punching a bully in the nose:
EMAIL DU JOUR: A tippy-top Democratic official tells us the reason that President Obama and Senate Democrats WILL NOT stave off a shutdown by caving to House GOP: “Time to punch the bully in his nose.”
This Twitter user jumps on board the oh-so-civil train:
According to Politico's @mikeallen Dems say it is time to punch the bully in the face. I agree. #ShutdownTheGOP

Hmm. What would she think were it aimed at President Obama?
.@politico @mikeallen "Time to punch this bully in the nose." Lets pretend that a Republican said this about Obama and see what happens.

Heh. Remember even disliking Obama is “a sin” and, of course, racist.
Top Dem: "Time to punch the bully." http://t.co/0tX5CcMF21 Very telling. They know ACA not ready, but wld rather "punch bully" than delay.

Telling indeed.
The always awesome Amanda Carpenter, speechwriter and senior communications adviser to Sen. Cruz, cuts right to the truthful chase.
