Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Everybody saw this coming.

Republicans choose power over democracy, every day.

The next time the wall street journal editorial board speaks the truth will be the first.

Give the craziest people you know everything they want and hope they don’t ask for more? Great plan.

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

Schmidt just says fuck it, opens a tea shop.

You are so fucked. Still, I wish you the best of luck.

Prediction: the GOP will rethink its strategy of boycotting future committees.

Reality always lies in wait for … Democrats.

Red lights blinking on democracy’s dashboard

Nancy smash is sick of your bullshit.

Only Democrats have agency, apparently.

rich, arrogant assholes who equate luck with genius

A consequence of cucumbers

In after Baud. Damn.

Perhaps you mistook them for somebody who gives a damn.

If you are in line to indict donald trump, stay in line.

“What are Republicans afraid of?” Everything.

Republicans want to make it harder to vote and easier for them to cheat.

“The defense has a certain level of trust in defendant that the government does not.”

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

The cruelty is the point; the law be damned.

Pessimism assures that nothing of any importance will change.

Thanks for reminding me that Van Jones needs to be slapped.

The Guardian has retracted the Wolfowitz story and issued a correction. Unhinged liberals can return to the usual rhetoric about Republicans starving poor people and children:

Paul Wolfowitz

A report which was posted on our website on June 4 under the heading “Wolfowitz: Iraq war was about oil” misconstrued remarks made by the US deputy defence secretary, Paul Wolfowitz, making it appear that he had said that oil was the main reason for going to war in Iraq. He did not say that. He said, according to the department of defence website, “The … difference between North Korea and Iraq is that we had virtually no economic options with Iraq because the country floats on a sea of oil. In the case of North Korea, the country is teetering on the edge of economic collapse and that I believe is a major point of leverage whereas the military picture with North Korea is very different from that with Iraq.” The sense was clearly that the US had no economic options by means of which to achieve its objectives, not that the economic value of the oil motivated the war. The report appeared only on the website and has now been removed.

    Cautionary Tale

    Can there be any doubt that our diligent bloggers are compelling the “mainstream” media types to start governing their tendencies to suborn fact to ideology? Hurrah! I only hope that more of the mass of middling voters, whose political opinions and actions rest not on reflection but inertia, will be moved to question the leftist dogmas they receive in print and on television–and to turn away from these passive media and to become more active citizens on the internet. DeTocqueville would approve.

    Thankfully they carrected the error, now if we can the Moonie Times to start doing that, we will have something. Maybe Moon’s propaganda rag could start by correcting the lie they printed about AF1 being trashed. Did anyone see that? It sure had the puppets jumping up and down hating Clinton a little extra. They all knew it HAD to be true because they are trained not to question but act. Pavlov would be proud of conservatives.
