Pretty much sums up the left’s view on “civility in political discourse.”

(CNSNews.com) – MSNBC’s Ed Schultz calling former Vice President Dick Cheney “an enemy of the country” who should go “to the Promised Land,” is not an example of political incivility but is actually “beautifully phrased,” according to actor Richard Dreyfuss, who is spearheading a nationwide initiative on civics education and civility in political discourse.

At the National Press Club on Tuesday where Dreyfuss was talking about his civics initiative, CNSNews.com asked the Academy Award-winning actor the following: “MSNBC’s Ed Schultz said of, has said of Dick Cheney, ‘he’s an enemy of this country, in my opinion, Dick Cheney is an enemy of this country. … Lord, take him to the promised land, will you?’ And there’s been other quotes, specifically in the media. I wanted to get your reaction to that specifically. Is that something that you think should be rejected by a civil society?

Dreyfuss said, “No, that’s not uncivil. That’s actually kind of a beautifully phrased way of saying something that could be uncivil.”
