Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Baby steps, because the Republican Party is full of angry babies.

It’s a doggy dog world.

Quote tweet friends, screenshot enemies.

with the Kraken taking a plea, the Cheese stands alone.

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

The revolution will be supervised.

Republicans in disarray!

Sadly, media malpractice has become standard practice.

Spilling the end game before they can coat it in frankl luntz-approved dogwhistles.

Everyone is in a bubble, but some bubbles model reality far better than others!

Why is it so hard for them to condemn hate?

If you still can’t see these things even now, maybe politics isn’t your forte and you should stop writing about it.

Too often we confuse noise with substance. too often we confuse setbacks with defeat.

Republicans seem to think life begins at the candlelight dinner the night before.

Even though I know this is a bad idea, I’m off to do it anyway!

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

There’s always a light at the end of the frog.

The US Supreme Court is on the ballot in november.

Republicans can’t even be trusted with their own money.

Teach a man to fish, and he’ll sit in a boat all day drinking beer.

I’m just a talker, trying to find a channel!

If you thought you’d already seen people saying the stupidest things possible on the internet, prepare yourselves.

Bogus polls are all they’ve got left. Let’s bury these fuckers at the polls a year from now.

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

Robert Novak asked Robert Wexler (you remember him- he was one of the driving forces behind creating the disenfranchised illusion in 2000) the following (and I paraphrase):

“Essentially, anything bad that happens in Iraq is Bush’s fault, anything good that happens the troops did?”

Wexler agreed. From his comments section, Matthew Yglesias states:

In short, no, I never offer praise for George W. Bush. There are plenty of other people out there, both amateurs and well-paid professionals, offering non-stop streams of praise for the president of the United States and I’ll leave that to them. When I think of something bad to say about him, then I’ll speak up, otherwise I remain silent.

Straight shooters.

    There was a Peter Wexler who died in 2002, and a Paul Wexler, and a Congressman Robert Wexler who’s been interviewed by Novak…could you help us out with which Wexler you’re talking about?

    This is the same Yglesias that refused to say anything nice about the Republicans because he was afraid it was “a trick to let his guard down”.

    Sigh.

    I never read anything by Matthew Yglesias as I know there will always be lots of fools at such moronic sites as Eschaton and Counterspin that will praise his young intellect to the heavens.

    Robert “Whiny” Wexler, who was fond of screeching “They’re impeaching our president! They’re impeaching our president!” during the 1998 impeachment hearings with an expression on his face that implied that he had just soiled his undergarments. Getting his butt kicked there was a good foundation for getting his butt kicked in the battle over the 2000 presidential election–his whining reached a pitch and volume that would have made Wallace Shawn wince. Fortunately for the hearing of the nation, he’s been rather obscure ever since.

    Things must be pretty bad in the 19th District that they have no better choice than to elect a sniveling,immature middle age male to represent them in the U.S. Congress. He appears to be a pathetic pup.
