Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

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

Despite his magical powers, I don’t think Trump is thinking this through, to be honest.

And we’re all out of bubblegum.

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

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

JFC, are there no editors left at that goddamn rag?

Ah, the different things are different argument.

“Jesus paying for the sins of everyone is an insult to those who paid for their own sins.”

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

Some judge needs to shut this circus down soon.

Jack Smith: “Why did you start campaigning in the middle of my investigation?!”

It’s time for the GOP to dust off that post-2012 autopsy, completely ignore it, and light the party on fire again.

They’re not red states to be hated; they are voter suppression states to be fixed.

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

New McCarthy, same old McCarthyism.

Wow, you are pre-disappointed. How surprising.

Proof that we need a blogger ethics panel.

Technically true, but collectively nonsense

Seems like a complicated subject, have you tried yelling at it?

He really is that stupid.

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

So it was an October Surprise A Day, like an Advent calendar but for crime.

Peak wingnut was a lie.

Jesus, Mary, & Joseph how is that election even close?

Bush Doesn’t Care

Some context for the “Bush Doesn’t Care” crew:

Novak is the perfect receptacle for such a leak. An old-time Washington insider known for his gruff manner, black suits, conservative leanings and love of Washington intrigue, Novak has been jokingly called

    Two problems.

    First, the leak of Plame’s CIA role was brought up in a press conference soon afterward in July. McClellan started his response with something like “I’m glad you brought that up”, suggesting he’d been prepped, and the White House was aware that a CIA agent had been outed.

    Second, the CIA contacted DOJ not long after the incident. The DOJ didn’t exactly jump on it. The CIA recently went back to the DOJ. It wasn’t the first contact between the two.

    Which sentence shows that Bush cared or didn’t care. I don’t see any evidence either way. The boldface portion makes it clear that the CIA cares, but that’s hardly an issue.

    There’s no doubt the President cares very deeply about this right now. The question, and test of his character is this: is he concerned because a covert operative was outed, or because this could inflict some serious political damage?

    I don’t know whether Bush cares (I hope he does, but it can be tough to tell; I don’t know how many orignial thoughts he actually has…). But I wonder how much Bush supporters care about the actual situations and circumstances that the administration has put our nation in.

    Many people, on the left and the right (and elsewhere on the ideological spectrum) just seem not to care – about the things that are really important.

    But who cares?
