Attn Emanuel Cleaver: Good luck with that “civility agenda”

A weird random tidbit from the second-to-last paragraph of Sunday’s Star story about how Congressman Emanuel Cleaver is taking a bunch of crap from conservatives for proposing that today, the day before Thanksgiving, become known “Complaint Free Wednesday”:

The three-term congressman is an unlikely candidate to unleash the furies. He leads the Congressional Prayer Breakfast and is founder of the House Civility Caucus.

First of all, despite the fact that he’s a minister, Cleaver is an unabashed liberal who’s a lightning rod for unleashing right-wing “furies”; for evidence, the Star‘s Washington correspondent David Goldstein might want to check out this meeting with constituents in August.

But the oddest thing about Goldstein’s report was his passing reference to the House Civility Caucus.

I’d never heard of such a thing.
