Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

I like you, you’re my kind of trouble.

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

All your base are belong to Tunch.

A democracy can’t function when people can’t distinguish facts from lies.

The cruelty is the point; the law be damned.

Yeah, with this crowd one never knows.

Jesus, Mary, & Joseph how is that election even close?

Roe isn’t about choice, it’s about freedom.

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

Red lights blinking on democracy’s dashboard

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

When do we start airlifting the women and children out of Texas?

Tick tock motherfuckers!

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

if you can’t see it, then you are useless in the fight to stop it.

I’ve spoken to my cat about this, but it doesn’t seem to do any good.

A thin legal pretext to veneer over their personal religious and political desires

Whoever he was, that guy was nuts.

A Senator Walker would be an insult to the state and the nation.

A dilettante blog from the great progressive state of West Virginia.

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

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

Not so fun when the rabbit gets the gun, is it?

Bill Quick reacts to the following story:

Conservatives reacted cautiously to the news this week that federal Judge John G. Roberts Jr. helped a group of homosexual rights activists win a seminal victory 10 years ago before the Supreme Court.

“Judge Roberts was an attorney with a large firm where helping colleagues when called upon was expected,” Family Research Council President Tony Perkins said yesterday after researching the matter. “I have verified that his involvement was limited to about five hours of participation in a moot court as he played the role of one of the high court’s conservative members asking tough hypothetical questions of the attorneys who actually prepared and argued the case.”

Mr. Perkins said his initial reaction to the news was concern that Judge Roberts had been “aiding and abetting” the groups. But after discussions with the White House and surrogates, Mr. Perkins urged caution in reaching that conclusion.

Click here to read Bill being shrill, and, in my estimation, spot on. At some point, the knee-jerk homophobia and other antics of these folks is going to turn off everyone.

Aiding and abetting? Cripes.

    Thank God that his involvement was limited to just five hours. If he’d worked a full day on this, Roberts would’ve caught the Gay Cooties for sure.

    So Roberts got with the Sodomites?

    Good for him. His standing with me just went up one full notch.

    And I was already voting to confirm.

    Anything that pisses off rightwing ignorant bigots is fine with me.

    Political parties each have their boogie-men. To the Democrats it is the wealthy (unless it is wealth from acting, singing, or lawyering, or is old money).

    For Gawd’s Ordained Party, it used to be the communists. Since the fall of the Berlin wall and other such events, they had to find a new boogie-man. Homosexuals, and to a lesser extent, non-Protestants, are the new ones.

[…] Their methods may be odd and at sometimes in your face (and, in the above case, funny), but again, their beliefs are fully within the mainstream of the Focus on the Family/Family Research Center right. On virtually every issue, they adopt the exact same rhetoric and the exact same position as the AFA, the FRC, Focus on the Family. And let’s not forgetthe initial statement by Tony Perkins upon learning that Roberts had done pro-bono work for gay rights groups: […]
