Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

When your entire life is steeped in white supremacy, equality feels like discrimination.

An almost top 10,000 blog!

This blog will pay for itself.

No offense, but this thread hasn’t been about you for quite a while.

We cannot abandon the truth and remain a free nation.

The worst democrat is better than the best republican.

We’ve had enough carrots to last a lifetime. break out the sticks.

Via The Blogs of War, this interesting passage in Time:

There are futility metaphors aplenty here: The contrast between the swaggering President and the squabbling Dems. The nonargument over periphera. The absence of an audience. But then, the Democrats have excelled at futility for more than 30 years. They have elected two Presidents during that time, Jimmy Carter and Bill Clinton. Both were Governors of Southern states. Neither was a well-known party leader. Neither ran on what many Democrats would consider a traditional
