Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Hot air and ill-informed banter

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

Infrastructure week. at last.

Consistently wrong since 2002

You don’t get rid of your umbrella while it’s still raining.

Fuck the extremist election deniers. What’s money for if not for keeping them out of office?

Sitting here in limbo waiting for the dice to roll

We still have time to mess this up!

Russian mouthpiece, go fuck yourself.

… riddled with inexplicable and elementary errors of law and fact

The words do not have to be perfect.

Schmidt just says fuck it, opens a tea shop.

The cruelty is the point; the law be damned.

Republicans seem to think life begins at the candlelight dinner the night before.

Putting aside our relentless self-interest because the moral imperative is crystal clear.

Take hopelessness and turn it into resilience.

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

Battle won, war still ongoing.

Accountability, motherfuckers.

You cannot shame the shameless.

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

Red lights blinking on democracy’s dashboard

I know this must be bad for Joe Biden, I just don’t know how.

The revolution will be supervised.

Here is a damned pipe dream if I have ever seen one:

It seems to me that the most inspired pick for the Supreme Court would be a thoroughgoing economic and social libertarian. The freedom-loving part of the Republican coalition has already been alienated in so many ways by this administration. A libertarian SCOTUS pick would go some way to winning them back.

Don’t hold your breath.

    I don’t think the Dems would be too thrilled about such a pick, either. Libertarian=repealing the New Deal, by some suggestions.

    Cordially…

    I’ll bet Perfessor Instapundit would be glad to be appointed. Wonder what Andy would think about that?

    I was really excited when Sullivan promised to stop blogging. Then he kept doing it :(

    The good thing about Andy is if you disagree with him today, you can visit his blog tommorow and he will be contradicting himself.

    You could try this approach, which would add a checkbox that allows viewers to toggle all the links on your site to open in a new window. Yeah, it’s what Atrios uses, but I’ve seen it in enough other places/blogs that you probably wouldn’t look at all like a copycat. It looks like the code’s fairly simple and efficient and doesn’t require any editing, just insertion into whatever part of your template you’d like the checkbox to appear.

    Here’s a thought: someone without ideological bias who’d interpret the constitution as the founders intended.

    Sorry, too radical (and wouldn’t allow gay marriage to bypass the will of the people, which is Sullivan’s one and only care on the matter).

    RW,
    That’s retarded. If you look at the history of libertarians, they tend to not take a stand on social issues. The constitution created a republic for the sole purpose of not allowing direct democracy, i.e. “will of the people”. So, bigots like you can’t discriminate against gay people, or other minorities, because some diety is whispering in your ear.
