Political Disagreements

Obama and the White House (despite how the term is used, I don't believe "White House" is a person) often use the phrase, "we can disagree without being disagreeable." What does that mean? It means that Obama and/or his express their opinions/beliefs in civil terms and those that might disagree likewise express theirs. Disagreements while heard are not considered. Obama, being in power, acts upon his, those who disagree, not being in power, are expected to shut up and go away, never to bring up the subject again and certainly never to act upon their opinions or beliefs. America loses. Americans buy more guns.
