Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Why is it so hard for them to condemn hate?

The most dangerous place for a black man in America is in a white man’s imagination.

The gop is a fucking disgrace.

The media handbook says “controversial” is the most negative description that can be used for a Republican.

Jack be nimble, jack be quick, hurry up and indict this prick.

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

I’m starting to think Jesus may have made a mistake saving people with no questions asked.

Republicans firmly believe having an abortion is a very personal, very private decision between a woman and J.D. Vance.

Republicans: slavery is when you own me. freedom is when I own you.

Not all heroes wear capes.

Stop using mental illness to avoid talking about armed white supremacy.

Following reporting rules is only for the little people, apparently.

Impressively dumb. Congratulations.

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

Republicans don’t want a speaker to lead them; they want a hostage.

Republicans: “Abortion is murder but you can take a bus to get one.” Easy peasy.

The party of Reagan has become the party of Putin.

All hail the time of the bunny!

Mediocre white men think RFK Jr’s pathetic midlife crisis is inspirational. The bar is set so low for them, it’s subterranean.

Do not shrug your shoulders and accept the normalization of untruths.

“Alexa, change the president.”

“When somebody takes the time to draw up a playbook, they’re gonna use it.”

The current Supreme Court is a dangerous, rogue court.

That’s my take and I am available for criticism at this time.

Paranoia on the campaign trail.

This is just absurd:

Presidential candidate Wesley Clark on Friday complained that one of the moderators in Thursday night’s debate was carrying out a Republican agenda by questioning his Democratic credentials.

Brit Hume of Fox News Channel, who worked as both moderator and questioner during the two-hour debate with the seven candidates, pressed Clark about when he had first realized he was a Democrat.

Clark told reporters Friday, “I looked at who was asking the questions, and I think that was part of the Republican agenda in the debate.”

It should be clear by now that clark is in way over his head, and he will simply say anything to remain afloat.

If there is any Republican agenda in the Democratic debates, it is to keep encouraging the Dems to have them. I could use about 10-15 more nationally televised debates with the Democrats all beating the crap out of each other. That is my agenda.

    Considering that Hume was falling behind the Dean campaign’s “Clark is a Republican” spiel, I guess Dean’s strategy is part of the Republican agenda too ;-)

    I thought this was good. Wouldnt a guy who isnt so biased be better than someone who is?

    You complain when the Dems are far apart. You complain when they have a guy who isnt. WTF do you want?

    IMO Wesley Clark is into VRW conspiracy theories… he should talk to Hillary. She “knows” what a real conspiracy is.

    Great point, I think that the best proof that Foxnews has a conservative slant is the fact that they keep having these Democratic debates. I’m waiting for the FEC to investigate the GOP for illegal campaigning by allowing the Dems to show America exactly what they stand for.

    Good grief. This guy is always talking about how tough he is. “I’m was a General!” and yet here he is, blubbering about Brit Hume? Via John Cole….
