But back.

So according to a new survey most Americans say incivility is on the rise most women on politicians government officials media -- the Internet sports figures cell -- and Twitter.

Who in response all -- -- in their right.

Occupy Wall Street rank less offensive than the media which is odd.

Since it was almost impossible to tell them apart for a while they share the same tense and ideas.

But the way I see it civil culture is always on the receiving end of pop culture.

It's the actors the rappers the artists who get their first and soil the path by masquerading tracks as edginess.

Take the most -- hip hop artist today killer Mike whose lyrics include -- I'll leave you with four words I'm glad Reagan dead.

That's uncivil but the left wing website gawker called this -- tremendous.

They describe them as risky and exciting.

Risky Minnie Pearl White liberal music critic trying to grow a goatee and it's pathetic bald head.

Fact is risk isn't wishing Reagan -- that's exactly what lame pop culture critics like walker diet for.

They never met a shocking artists they didn't embrace because their own insecurities speed the need to be cool.

The real obscenity at the tools in the stake -- stability for real spot and the real rebels are those who embrace ability when everyone else has given up.

Huge you ought to be the poster child for Mike Bloomberg spec really got that that black -- -- -- to -- and again.

There might have never heard of calibrate -- -- good diet you'll hear -- aficionado of hip hop -- -- -- some.

Maybe the worst John you'd never went -- Well okay -- Oh how do you feel about this ability survey -- -- kind of an expert on this well it is there's suggestion that some I think actually your very polite.

Well thank you cannot tell I mean on TV you're not that I I -- out of television.

I think it's I think -- -- you said monologue right I think at the -- feed on one another and I think it is it's polarizing politics it's it's got it it everybody has a little -- to blame here I think except when you go to places where they're reasonable decent middle Americans whether.

-- and I've been that.

Indiana before Oklahoma -- and make -- of those decent people I've run across you wouldn't say those guys that.

But it seems to me that this media -- of the country are where most of the stuff happens.

Those people you make fun of -- Rednecks they don't -- -- a little bit of amends are nice people at.

-- that survey ahead Internet -- a low on the list.

How do you and it -- -- that you met never -- -- up GAAP uncivil or instantly on civil.

They're tough guys and then when you kind of call -- that they kind of -- yet -- -- that would well I think that's did the the Internet is created what this because it's anonymous you can get away with it.

That's exactly I'm not buying this -- because they'd had the Internet 38% and I have government officials and over 50%.

So of the most popular government official.

Obama -- a lot of things but he's not -- and in media.

Which is on the Internet Greg you pointed out talker he can hide behind their seat and ends and the and -- has created.

-- a group of really nasty people it's easier to be nastier online and masters someone's face -- Bob Beckel on he -- Can be rude and your -- put it -- it.

And it's -- -- there was an you say that shows that people who actually wake up earlier.

May be less rude because they feel happier in -- more satisfied.

-- life overall which makes a -- because you get up early.

You're -- rotten to the war at.

I -- I get that a lot.

And this is -- you know I have always gotten apparently yeah but I guess I get up before you go to bed.

And keep it.

But I I on the sunny side of the street you do do I do yes and I wake up in the morning and I I am happy but boy at by 10 PM -- that.

She goes -- that -- -- -- dog yoga class whatever and what is.

Politically -- don't you go to yoga class.

Now aren't.

Coverage I up up up up up version is totally different as.

I've tried that -- -- that's a very dangerous.

Go -- -- do you really think that morning.

I don't anchors there were many days and -- never had either the evening or morning version I was up all night and all through that today.

But I don't I don't see the difference frankly I mean is anybody really believe that.

I think -- to get you get older you tend to get up earlier because you realize -- days are numbered.

Why doesn't it probably is -- survey in the morning.

Yeah -- it.

If you have ever worked with somebody is not a morning person I actually now like this is a good example next day and it has eyes and you about -- emails before you even wake up to them -- to and keeping an iron -- like oh isn't this fun yet they create -- and ready and you don't pay attention to me at all.

It felt like 1030 and then you're in a bad -- he says this is a symbol on the morning call yeah -- Yet you have what is -- -- notified good luck Jim that's what I.

Hundreds of others -- his rosary in here I got my relatives around here I can't be on this phone call.

Midnight now morning person morning person night now.
