GOV't???

From my perch, I see a whole buncha Bully Behavior coming mostly from them GOPers.

Trouble makers, they attempt to make themselves lok good by making others look bad,,,,just like the Bullies we all know around our private lives.

2. Obama does act like a bully victim quite often.

So do many Dems.

6. Congressman Cleaver made this exact same point to me recently

We were discussing anti-bullying legislation and he said they needed some for Congress.

He has been attacked for a long time now. Spit on, death threats, disruptions at his town halls. Definitely bullying tactics.

7. Since and including Reagan and his wranglers, they've been bullying everyone into submission

and stealing all they can. Now they're scared.

9. Bullies are everywhere; homes, workplaces, gov't, kids, and teens, and adults.

Unfortunately it seems to be part and parcel of the human genome.

It's f'ing glorified in 80% of video entertainment, from movies to sitcoms to games, particularly by the good guys. How many times a week are there cop shows, or lawyer shows, or hero shows on where the good guys threaten, lie, and bully, not only the bad guys, but also their informants, their co-workers, their families... all in ways the are presented as being perfectly okay because the good guy is doing it and it's for a "good reason."
