Frum recognizes that the whole ‘civil’ argument is a deliberate distraction from the real discussion. There are a lot of wrongs committed by the GQP and the justices. They need to be addressed and then we can talk about ‘civility’.

Don’t picket judges at home. It’s wrong.

Don’t refuse to schedule votes on presidential supreme court nominees. That’s wrong too.

Even if you think a Senator’s questions are unfair or intrusive - don’t lie in your testimony. That’s wrong as well.

And wrongs add up.
