Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Democrats have delivered the Square Deal, the New Deal, the Fair Deal, and now… the Big Joe Biden Deal.

Hi god, it’s us. Thanks a heap, you’re having a great week and it’s only Thursday!

Jack be nimble, jack be quick, hurry up and indict this prick.

“And when the Committee says to “report your income,” that could mean anything!

Shallow, uninformed, and lacking identity

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

The republican speaker is a slippery little devil.

The lights are all blinking red.

FFS people, this was a good thing. take the win.

Their boy Ron is an empty plastic cup that will never know pudding.

I desperately hope that, yet again, I am wrong.

I see no possible difficulties whatsoever with this fool-proof plan.

I might just take the rest of the day off and do even more nothing than usual.

Something needs to be done about our bogus SCOTUS.

When do the post office & the dmv weigh in on the wuhan virus?

I’m pretty sure there’s only one Jack Smith.

There are more Russians standing up to Putin than Republicans.

When you’re in more danger from the IDF than from Russian shelling, that’s really bad.

The arc of the moral universe doesn’t bend itself. it’s up to us.

There are consequences to being an arrogant, sullen prick.

The words do not have to be perfect.

So many bastards, so little time.

The cruelty is the point; the law be damned.

GOP baffled that ‘we don’t care if you die’ is not a winning slogan.

A Reasonable Compromise?

All economic sanctions against the former Hussein regime should be lifted, period. Punishing the people of Iraq simply makes no sense. With that in mind, and knowing that we are going to have to do something to appease the treacherous French, this seems to be a reasonable compromise:

The resolution would allow for a partial payout of the existing $10 billion in approved contracts for food, medicine and industrial goods authorized by the United Nations before the war. It also would allow for a United Nations special representative who would act as a nominal partner in the political reconstruction of Iraq, Security Council diplomats said today.

The two moves seem designed to solicit Russian and French support

    Darn who would write a silly rule like Iraq would have to be certified free of WMD’s before the sanctions could be lifted?

    Seriously, you can’t screw over Russia. They have a lot of nukes, the Arabs have a lot of money, and it sure would be a shame if some of those nukes fell into Arab hands…if only Russia had enough money to, um, secure them properly we could be sure the Arabs wouldn’t get any.
