Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Historically it was a little unusual for the president to be an incoherent babbling moron.

No offense, but this thread hasn’t been about you for quite a while.

Americans barely caring about Afghanistan is so last month.

Pessimism assures that nothing of any importance will change.

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

Conservatism: there are some people the law protects but does not bind and others who the law binds but does not protect.

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

Only Democrats have agency, apparently.

In my day, never was longer.

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

Optimism opens the door to great things.

People are complicated. Love is not.

Their freedom requires your slavery.

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

Impressively dumb. Congratulations.

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

Peak wingnut was a lie.

When I decide to be condescending, you won’t have to dream up a fantasy about it.

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

The words do not have to be perfect.

Let there be snark.

Just because you believe it, that doesn’t make it true.

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

Thanks to your bullshit, we are now under siege.

Jeralynn points to this piece listing who of prominent Democrats, Republicans, and journalists has military service, and then urges us to view this ‘astute analysis’ from Markos “Screw ’em” Moulitsas:

Look at the military records of prominent Democrat politicans and their Republican counterparts. It’s not even close. In fact, the entire Republican leadership has either not served, or went AWOL playing pool volleyball with ambitious secretaries. It’s no accident that Lindsey Graham of SC (who did serve) was one of the harshest Republican critics of the Abu Ghraib scandal…

Finally, yet another publication gets my last name wrong (it’s Moulitsas — always address a Latino by the first surname, not the second). But I don’t mind a reminder to the world that I’ve actually served my country and wore combat boots. Unlike the vast majority of the chickenshit war-cheerleading wingers.

Astute, indeed- if you think Michael Moore is a deep thinker.

My question- If Florida had not been so disputed in the last election, would Democrats be this bitter and obnoxious?

*** Update ***

Regarding Kos and those who ‘served’:

Look, I would rather talk about the war. The current one, I mean

    Did he read the same list?

    Clinton entire foreign policy team – no military service

    Bush’s foreign policy team – 50% had military service

    Same here Marble,

    Former Marine, 0331 as a matter of fact. I’ve worn combat boots lugging a M60E3 machine gun all over, but I guess that just makes me a ckickenhawk.

    Personally, I’ll cut kos some slack….when I was his size (back when I was 11) I had a smart mouth, as well.

    However, I can’t wait to watch those folks begin spinning Hillary on the first Wednesday in November.

    When a mere child, I distinctly recall another child being ecstatic that someone with whom he didn’t agree had been the victim of an assassination attempt. Said other child was a “liberal.” So, there’s always been that element. At the same time, I wouldn’t attempt to claim that Daily “aljazeerah.info is the al Jazeera” Kos reflects more than, oh, 50 or 60% of Democrats.
