Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

I know this must be bad for Joe Biden, I just don’t know how.

People are complicated. Love is not.

Something needs to be done about our bogus SCOTUS.

I was promised a recession.

When I decide to be condescending, you won’t have to dream up a fantasy about it.

A thin legal pretext to veneer over their personal religious and political desires

Roe isn’t about choice, it’s about freedom.

We still have time to mess this up!

Peak wingnut was a lie.

Too often we hand the biggest microphones to the cynics and the critics who delight in declaring failure.

Historically it was a little unusual for the president to be an incoherent babbling moron.

I did not have this on my fuck 2022 bingo card.

Bark louder, little dog.

If you are still in the GOP, you are an extremist.

Conservatism: there are some people the law protects but does not bind and others who the law binds but does not protect.

I’d try pessimism, but it probably wouldn’t work.

Within six months Twitter will be fully self-driving.

Tick tock motherfuckers!

Putting aside our relentless self-interest because the moral imperative is crystal clear.

The worst democrat is better than the best republican.

The republican caucus is already covering themselves with something, and it’s not glory.

Technically true, but collectively nonsense

Why did Dr. Oz lose? well, according to the exit polls, it’s because Fetterman won.

Let me eat cake. The rest of you could stand to lose some weight, frankly.

Repeat Offender

Apparently the loudmouthed huckster that I posted about here, U.S. Rep. Marcy Kaptur (D., Toledo), is a repeat offender according to Hanks. I am still waiting on the official party line from the left, as well as the snide and condescending ripostes explaining how I am simplistic and just don’t understand that she was talking in the broadest sense (like Patty Murray, and not like Trent Lott, you see).

In case you are forgetting who Rep. Kaptur is, she is the original “no war for oil” useful idiot.

*** Update ***

If you listen closely, you can probably here the Charge of the Lightweight Brigade rushing to Kaptur’s defense:

Bow-tie implied that she was making the “one man’s terrorist is another man’s freedom fighter” argument. Click the link to discover that she was doing no such thing. She was just warning of the dangers of confronting an enemy which combined political cause with religious zeal, not in any way being an apologist.

Betcha those guys don’t read Clayton Cramer.

    Word to the wise if they are from Toledo odds are high that they are wierd. I speak from experience. A Democrat from Toledo you don’t even have to ask.

    So as long as she’s making the morally vacant observation that al Qaeda and the founders of our country are a lot alike in the form of a WARNING, it’s just jim-dandy.

    P.P.S. One little tidbit Atrios neglected to include (which probably explains why there was no link to the transcript) – Donk hero Paul Begala’s response:

    “BEGALA: Disgraceful. Absolutely disgraceful. You were right to call her on it and I just — I can’t defend it. I never will — the notion that anybody could compare this murderer to our Founding Fathers is insane.”

    Atrios and the Atriettes are officially more of partisan apologists than Paul friggin’ Begala. In case you didn’t know that already.

    Paul Begala is actually a center-left moderate DLC typ Democrat. It is just that he is a feirce partisan and a Clinton kool-aid drinker that makes him seem so shrill and unreasonable.

    Kaptur’s response to the criticism seems to solidify that she was calling terrorists mere “revolutionaries.”
