Don't Expect Maturity from November 2010 to January 2011!

I have spent a lot of the last two years trying to define what the talk media has been calling "tone deafness" exhibited by our President, Speaker of the House and other Democrat elected officials. When our President tries to rekindle images of slavery and racial oppression; when our Speaker of the House feels that we are too stupid to know that passing a bill that we haven't read is a problem; and, when prominent television personalities are comfortable describing the majority of Americans as "ignorant" and "too stupid to know what is good for them", it is more than tone deafness.

Today as listened to Bill Maher malign the majority of Americans it hit me--there is no emotional intelligence/maturity in this administration. Emotional intelligence is missing in the dialogue of the ruling Democrats. For those of you who are new to the concept, emotional intelligence/maturity is defined as "a self-perceived ability to identify, assess, and control the emotions of one's self, of others, and of groups."

Not convinced? Bring on the name calling as well as the character assassination. Consider Joy Behar calling Sharron Angle out of her name, and the even less gracious way that Behar accepted the return jab of flowers.

My point? Don't expect maturity from this crew if they loss big on November 2nd. You should expect a tantrum of legislation and executive orders that will occupy the first year of the new Congress with repeals and legal challenges. And our President, who promised a new age of civility will continue to act as the "Playground Bully in Chief."

While I pray that I am wrong...well, we'll see!
