Wait, Democrats Aren't Vile?

House Democrats lined up to excoriate GOP Rep. Allen West on Wednesday after he sent an incendiary email to the Democratic party chairwoman calling her "vile" and "not a lady."

Story here

I'm failing to see the problem....

Vile – adjective, vil·er, vil·est.
1. wretchedly bad: a vile humor.
2. highly offensive, unpleasant, or objectionable: vile slander.
3. repulsive or disgusting, as to the senses or feelings: a vile odor.

In math if you take a negative number and multiply it by another negative number, you get a positive number. Following that logic I'm surprised liberals haven't abandoned "progressive" for this label yet...I mean, if Democrats took their name and applied it to "vile" not only would they free up energy they would otherwise use trying to hide that they're not, but instead of ruining the meaning of words they may actually rehab one for once.

People hunger for honesty in politics, Democrats have a golden opportunity here. If they took it sooner Anthony Weiner might still be a Congressman.
