| Summary / Abstract (Note) | Congressman Alan West (R-FL) passed the incivility duck test when he described his fellow Floridian Congresswoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D) as "the most vile, unprofessional and despicable member of the House of Representatives." That read like incivility, sounded like incivility, and was universally interpreted to be uncivil, thus it probably was. |
