I'm sure we have threads on him around here somewhere: couldnt find them and too lazy to look beyond the 30 seconds I already spent.
his name popped up in a local fishwrap here- very unexpectedly.
apparently he co-authored a civility pledge which is being sent around to members of congress for their endorsement. Not surprisingly, few have.
here is the Op-ed column entitled "Back to Civility" by a local old fart.

words,” the story began, “yet only two sitting members of Congress or
governors have signed the civility pledge … which reads:
“I will be civil in my public discourse and behavior.
“I will be respectful of others whether or not I agree with them.
“I will stand against incivility when I see it.
“In May, Lanny Davis, my friend and co-founder of the Civility
Project, and I sent a letter to all 535 members of Congress and 50 sitting
governors inviting them to sign a civility pledge,” Mark DeMoss wrote.
DeMoss is a conservative Republican and an evangelical Christian.
Davis is a liberal Democrat and Jewish.
“Six months later, the only two responding were Congressman Frank
Wolf (R-Va.) and Senator Joe Lieberman (I-Conn.),” De Moss continued.
