Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Our job is not to persuade republicans but to defeat them.

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

We still have time to mess this up!

Fuck these fucking interesting times.

There is no right way to do the wrong thing.

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

Glad to see john eastman going through some things.

They traffic in fear. it is their only currency. if we are fearful, they are winning.

There are no moderate Republican – only extremists, and cowards.

They love authoritarianism, but only when they get to be the authoritarians.

Michigan is a great lesson for Dems everywhere: when you have power…use it!

Quote tweet friends, screenshot enemies.

I really should read my own blog.

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

You miss 100% of the shots you don’t take. Go Senator Whitehouse!

This isn’t Democrats spending madly. This is government catching up.

People are complicated. Love is not.

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

There are a lot more evil idiots than evil geniuses.

Spilling the end game before they can coat it in frankl luntz-approved dogwhistles.

He imagines himself as The Big Bad, Who Is Universally Feared… instead of The Big Jagoff, Who Is Universally Mocked.

Never entrust democracy to any process that requires republicans to act in good faith.

Polls are now a reliable indicator of what corporate Republicans want us to think.

Let’s delete this post and never speak of this again.

There has been so much bullshit surrounding the judicial nominees that I don’t know where to even rank this doozy, but it is up there:

The deal was a defeat for Bush, who on Monday had again demanded straight up or down votes on all his nominees. It also was a blow to religious conservatives, who have advocated for more socially conservative judges and who put considerable pressure on Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist, R-Tenn., and Senate Republicans to change the filibuster rule. The Christian conservative Family Research Council had e-mailed supporters asking them to “pray that no compromise will be allowed which will let this unprecedented use of the filibuster remain.”

Apparently, God likes the filibuster. Or maybe he is just tired of a few shills taking his name in vain for purely political reasons.

    I spoke to God on my celphone only today, and He said that he voted Democratic. He also said that he has HBO up there just so He can watch Bill Maher.

    You have it wrong, according to my reading, the quote from the Christian conservative Research Council is asking god to defeat the compromise. So it’s incorrest to say “Apparently, God likes the filibuster”. They meant the exact opposite.

    You have to be careful of people who speak to God directly. Apparently its only okay if groups like MoveOn and the American way lobby. Hmm unusual definition of democracy.
