Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Consistently wrong since 2002

We are aware of all internet traditions.

Wow, I can’t imagine what it was like to comment in morse code.

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

The GOP couldn’t organize an orgy in a whorehouse with a fist full of 50s.

No one could have predicted…

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

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

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

rich, arrogant assholes who equate luck with genius

I like you, you’re my kind of trouble.

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

“Everybody’s entitled to be an idiot.”

Is it negotiation when the other party actually wants to shoot the hostage?

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

A Senator Walker would also be an insult to reason, rationality, and decency.

I did not have this on my fuck 2022 bingo card.

Infrastructure week. at last.

“More of this”, i said to the dog.

I’m pretty sure there’s only one Jack Smith.

Not so fun when the rabbit gets the gun, is it?

A last alliance of elves and men. also pet photos.

You can’t attract Republican voters. You can only out organize them.

Most of the attempts to discredit the Swift Boat Veterans for Truths usually include something like this:

John O’Neill is a right wing whacko who can not be trusted.

This is not just John O’Neill:

Swift Boat Veterans for Truth has more than 250 members, many of whom were wounded or highly decorated in Vietnam.
We purchased with our blood and service the right to be heard, to set the record straight about our unit, and to tell the truth about John Kerry’s military service record.

We respect Senator McCain’s right to express his opinion and we hope he extends to us the same respect and courtesy, particularly since we served with John Kerry, we knew him well and Senator McCain did not.

— Rear Admiral Roy Hoffmann (ret.), Founder and Chairman of Swift Boat Veterans for Truth

    No, let’s not. Let’s talk about the veracity of the statements made by the SBVFT campaign.

    I realize it’s easier to attack the messenger than to open your mind to what he’s saying.

    So, Org. answer this simple question –

    Are the men lying? If yes, please provide adequate proof. If no, ’nuff said. If maybe, then link to the facts they have wrong.

    See, it’s easy when you take off blinders!

    bear, the (one each)

    Sounds like RAdm Hoffmann opened up a fresh can of STFU and handed it to McCain. Good for him!

    So the idea here is that these Vets are so dumb to have aligned themselves with a Nixon operative and a racist kook? Or that they just aren’t credible?

    Nixonian? Which candidate has the “secret plan to end the war” again? Of course, Tacitus pretty well explained the secret: run like a stripe-assed ape!

    Are they stupid enough to align themselves with a discredited confessed liar who takes Soros’ money to run a blog that Paul Krugman pimps?

    “Nixon operative.” Oooohhh, now I’m properly scared of David Gergen.

    Oliver, your Krytonite is depleted.

    Cordially…

    P.S. Do you align yourself with Sen. Robert Byrd as a matter of convenience? Or Al Sharpton?
