Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

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

Insiders who complain to politico: please report to the white house office of shut the fuck up.

Damn right I heard that as a threat.

Sitting here in limbo waiting for the dice to roll

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

If you can’t control your emotions, someone else will.

Compromise? There is no middle ground between a firefighter and an arsonist.

Putin must be throwing ketchup at the walls.

When someone says they “love freedom”, rest assured they don’t mean yours.

The revolution will be supervised.

I’d like to think you all would remain faithful to me if i ever tried to have some of you killed.

The words do not have to be perfect.

When you’re a Republican, they let you do it.

Dear Washington Post, you are the darkness now.

It’s a good piece. click on over. but then come back!!

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

There are times when telling just part of the truth is effectively a lie.

It is possible to do the right thing without the promise of a cookie.

Humiliatingly small and eclipsed by the derision of millions.

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

You come for women, you’re gonna get your ass kicked.

The Supreme Court cannot be allowed to become the ultimate, unaccountable arbiter of everything.

Our job is not to persuade republicans but to defeat them.

There is no compromise when it comes to body autonomy. You either have it or you do not.

You are here: Home / Lights Out..

Lights Out..

Better start hustling in some more Republican scapegoats, guys. Apparently California is still suffering power shortages:

California lurched into its first electricity emergency of the year today after the state was hit by soaring temperatures in addition to power plant and transmission line outages.

The Stage 1 emergency, which means the state is within 7% of running out of electricity, comes a day after energy officials said California has adequate supplies for the summer but that generation or transmission mishaps could bring blackouts.

Under California’s three-stage emergency alert system, the state is far from declaring blackouts. But the emergency declaration, declared at 3 p.m. today, underscored how fragile the balance is between supply and demand in the state only two years after the energy crisis.

    Every court that has looked into this has agreed that the failure to police deregulation allowed the energy companies to perpetrate a massive fraud.

    Why are the low-level “scapegoats” (I don’t think Republicanism had much to do with it) busy plea bargaining?

    Sauce for the goose, John. Bill Clinton got blamed by some of the loonier elements of your party for everything short of the heartbreak of psoriasis. (And I’m not sure there isn’t a tape around somewhere of Jerry Falwell trying to pin that one on the Big Dog too.)

    Let Molly have her fun. Y’all will get your turn again someday soon.

    Hmmm…what’s the common denominator here? Not Enron. What, oh what, could it be?
