Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Incompetence, fear, or corruption? why not all three?

There are no moderate republicans – only extremists and cowards.

Black Jesus loves a paper trail.

… pundit janitors mopping up after the gop

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

Sitting here in limbo waiting for the dice to roll

A fool as well as an oath-breaker.

Whatever happens next week, the fight doesn’t end.

Lick the third rail, it tastes like chocolate!

In my day, never was longer.

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

Their boy Ron is an empty plastic cup that will never know pudding.

Rupert, come get your orange boy, you petrified old dinosaur turd.

Jesus watching the most hateful people claiming to be his followers

Is it irresponsible to speculate? It is irresponsible not to.

Whoever he was, that guy was nuts.

Only Democrats have agency, apparently.

The worst democrat is better than the best republican.

Weird. Rome has an American Pope and America has a Russian President.

Republicans want to make it harder to vote and easier for them to cheat.

We are builders in a constant struggle with destroyers. keep building.

Republicans do not pay their debts.

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

There is no right way to do the wrong thing.

The State of the Debate

This post is in: 

Everything that is wrong with politics in America can be summed up by what I just saw on Hardball. The topic was Guantanamo Bay, and the guests were a lifelong CIA analyst/interrogator, a representative from Amnesty International, and…

A talk radio host.

It even said “talk show host” underneath his name.

The terrorists have won.

    And did the radio host yell like a deaf man?

    They often seem to do that when they appear on TV.

    (For that matter, what’s the deal with that British guy who covers the UN scandals for Fox? He’s always shouting.)

    The Talk Radio Host is basically the High Priest. He kills the goat and offers its heart up to the gods. If there is no clap of thunder, then the rest of the ceremony can proceed.

    Or something.

    John, you really need to get a grip. You don’t seriously expect substance on “Hardball?” Matthews is no different than Hannity, O’Reilly or any of the other talking heads…they all just like to hear themselves talk. Why anybody listens is beyond me.

    I once saw Larry King interview Christine Amanpour (live from Kabul!) about the legal fate of Osama Bin Laden if he were caught in Aghanistan. At least she look bemused as she told him she wasn’t really up on the Afghan legal system or if one existed.

    Well, they need someone they can count on to tow the batshit crazy Bush party line, and who else but some lunatic talk radio cretin can they count on to do that so well?

    Notice I said “Bush party line” — cause that maroon and his entire inept administration are not the Republican party I want to be in anymore.

    But I agree with Steven above, Matthew’s rating are, and have always been, in the tank. Personaly, I stopped watching when he congratulated his own past Peace Corps service for the 1000th time.
