Senate News
By State Senator Julian B. Garrett
julian.garrett@legis.iowa.gov
Extreme Campaign Rhetoric
It is discouraging to see the all the nasty campaign
rhetoric at the national level from political candidates
and some of the media. It seems to be very hard to
have a rational, reasonable discussion of issues.
Instead we get never ending name calling. Too many
people, if they are losing the debate on the issues,
resort to name calling.
The killings in El Paso and Dayton generated 24
hour per day coverage with constant reminders that
the El Paso killer apparently was targeting
Hispanics, and blaming President Trump’s rhetoric.
What was rarely mentioned is that the killer
apparently was also an extreme environmentalist.
He also had written that his opinions on immigration
pre-dated the Donald Trump campaign.
The Dayton shooter was self-described as an
extreme leftist, a supporter of socialism, pro-Satan
and Elizabeth Warren supporter, though those facts
are hardly ever mentioned. Apparently, facts that
do not support the claim that Trump is to blame for
the shootings, should not be mentioned, according to
those on the left.
The point that we should'be able to understand is
that because a bad person agrees with a politician
on some issue or other, does not justify blaming the
politician for the actions of the bad person.
, Iowa Senate Rules
Luckily things are not as bad here at the state level
but even here things can get a little heated. The rules
of the Iowa Senate prohibit personal attacks and
.name calling, but occasionally even in the Senate
someone will forget and have to be reminded of the
rules. Here is Senate Rule 9: Debate and Decorum
“Before addressing the senate, the senator shall
request recognition by depressing the “speak” device
and, when recognized, rise and respectfully address
the chair. The senator shall confine all remarks to
the question under debate and shall avoid discussing
personalities or implication of improper motives. No
questions except by the senator recognized shall be
entertained after a senator is recognized to give final
remarks.”
Of course, the rules of the Senate do not affect what
people say or do outside the Senate. I believe that
there are times when it is justifiable to point out
hypocrisy and inconsistencies. However, I believe
most of us would prefer that candidates and others
would be a little more respectful of the opinions of
others, and tone down the rhetoric. I also fear that
we will not see that happening.
As always please feel free to contact me with your
ideas or concerns.
