Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

A snarling mass of vitriolic jackals

There are some who say that there are too many strawmen arguments on this blog.

Innocent people do not delay justice.

Every decision we make has lots of baggage with it, known or unknown.

He seems like a smart guy, but JFC, what a dick!

We will not go back.

If rights aren’t universal, they are privilege, not rights.

Let me eat cake. The rest of you could stand to lose some weight, frankly.

Give the craziest people you know everything they want and hope they don’t ask for more? Great plan.

That meeting sounds like a shotgun wedding between a shitshow and a clusterfuck.

If senate republicans had any shame, they’d die of it.

The words do not have to be perfect.

Boeing: repeatedly making the case for high speed rail.

It’s a good piece. click on over. but then come back!!

Trump should be leading, not lying.

He wakes up lying, and he lies all day.

Just because you believe it, that does not make it true.

Relentless negativity is not a sign that you are more realistic.

Shallow, uninformed, and lacking identity

They spent the last eight months firing professionals and replacing them with ideologues.

When you’re a Republican, they let you do it.

I like political parties that aren’t owned by foreign adversaries.

I don’t recall signing up for living in a dystopian sci-fi novel.

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

Great:

Steelers guard Kendall Simmons has a torn anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee and is expected to miss the rest of the season.

The injury is a major setback for the Steelers, who were hoping to avoid the injury problems that plagued them along the offensive line in 2003. But it is also a major disappointment for Simmons, who was diagnosed with adult on-set diabetes last August and never played to the same level he displayed as a rookie in 2002.

“It’s crazy man. There’s not very much I can do about it,” Simmons said. “I’m going to deal with whatever cards I’m dealt and go on.”

Simmons had a magnetic resonance imaging exam this morning that revealed a slight tear in the ligament. He said he will get a second opinion next week from Dr. James Andrews, a noted knee specialist in Birmingham, Ala., before determing he cannot play in 2004.

I want to cry.

*** Update ***

My mother is trying to kill me. I was just on the phone with her, and she said “What are we going to do without Kendrell Bell?”

I sat bolt upright and responded “What the hell happened to Bell?”

She laughed and said- “Oops. I meant Simmons.”

I didn’t know you could break into cold sweats that fast. Thank goodness for 81 mg aspirin.

    Hey John, you doofus,

    Don’t you know the Steeler’s never had a chance for the playoffs anyway? If they made it into the playoffs, a superior AFC team would have kicked their arse. And if they made it to the big game, then of course they would cower in the face of the Patriot Juggernaut.

    But hey, a good conservative like yourself must have access to many manly firearms. Please feel free to just shoot yourself.

    Oops, I just realized the Steelers ARE in the AFC. You must excuse me for forgetting they aren’t the weaker of the 2 divisions.

    If it’s any consolation, John, a lot of preseason college mags have your Moutaineers ranked pretty high.

    At least you’ll win the “Backyard Brawl”.
