Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

There are more Russians standing up to Putin than Republicans.

Polls are now a reliable indicator of what corporate Republicans want us to think.

The worst democrat is better than the best republican.

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

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

“Can i answer the question? No you can not!”

Russian mouthpiece, go fuck yourself.

At some point, the ability to learn is a factor of character, not IQ.

Tide comes in. Tide goes out. You can’t explain that.

If marriage is the equivalent of selling yourself into slavery, women with self respect should reject the offer.

And now I have baud making fun of me. this day can’t get worse.

“The difference between stupidity and genius is that genius has its limits.”

Lick the third rail, it tastes like chocolate!

A democracy can’t function when people can’t distinguish facts from lies.

JFC, are there no editors left at that goddamn rag?

if you can’t see it, then you are useless in the fight to stop it.

“That’s what the insurrection act is for!”

In my day, never was longer.

Never entrust democracy to any process that requires Republicans to act in good faith.

Giving up is unforgivable. ~Joe Biden

Let’s not be the monsters we hate.

Books are my comfort food!

We are builders in a constant struggle with destroyers. keep building.

Today, Jacques ChIraq, who has been an unending source of amusement, had this to say about post-war Iraq:

“We are no longer in an era where one or two countries can control the fate of another country,” Chirac told a news conference after a meeting with U.N. High Commissioner for Refugees Ruud Lubbers.

“Therefore, the political, economic, humanitarian and administrative reconstruction of Iraq is a matter for the United Nations and for it alone.”

In the headlines today:

“British Pick Local Leader to Control Chaotic Basra”

US Forces Push Further Into Baghdad; Saddam’s Fate Unknown

Is Chirac just trying to be amusing, or does he really not recognize we don’t care what he thinks regarding post-war Iraq? He, Tanzania, Syria, and Paraguay can huff and puff and give us all the suggestions they want- but it just doesn’t matter anymore.

    Never mind hoping; send letters/eMails to the White House to keep the frogs out of it. Let them carp from the sidelines; that’s all they’re good for, anyway.

    In related news, my brother, my sister, my dog and I decided that the coalition should be in charge. Whose opinion carries more weight?
