People really shouldn’t expect the government to help after they watched the GOP drown it in a bathtub.

Only Democrats have agency, apparently.

We do not need to pander to people who do not like what we stand for.

Insiders who complain to politico: please report to the white house office of shut the fuck up.

If you still can’t see these things even now, maybe politics isn’t your forte and you should stop writing about it.

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

I’m starting to think Jesus may have made a mistake saving people with no questions asked.

Giving up is unforgivable.

Optimism opens the door to great things.

Disagreements are healthy; personal attacks are not.

Is it negotiation when the other party actually wants to shoot the hostage?

Pessimism assures that nothing of any importance will change.

It’s always darkest before the other shoe drops.

Republicans do not trust women.

No one could have predicted…

The next time the wall street journal editorial board speaks the truth will be the first.

    Between 10 and 11 am PST I couldn’t access this site. I don’t know when it cleared up but it was after 11(2 est).

    It was this morning, but it wasn’t just you. jameswolcott.com (for instance) was also inaccessable at the same time. In both cases the host names were not resolving.

    All morning, and oddly, I couldn’t get on Instapundit or your site for pretty much the exact same period. All’s well now with both, and in fact, B-J (heh heh) seems a little faster than usual.

    I was having trouble getting to the site for a little while. But I think it was my wireless connection. When I plugged in a few minutes ago, things went back to normal.

    All day, until 5:30 P.M. Carpetbagger Report also had the same problems as well – long loading time leading to blank screen. But I am on AOL – Lord knows they could have problems.

    Well, the moment I start gloating the link goes kaput for awhile. Chagrined, I swear to resist gloating at least until the next opportunity arises.

    Speaking of which…

    May I suggest a thread dedicated to my scoring opening-day Steelers tickets? I’ll be so close that Roethlisberger will think I’m open.

    Hosting Matters was having routing issues or something similar earlier… one of the reasons many blogs were unaccessable.

    For me: no Balloon Juice all day (Tues 8/30)

    Amazing: I survived!

    No problems with the regular site since my last comment, but I just noticed that I haven’t gotten anything on the RSS feed since post #5420 (“Ruthless Gangster, Definition Villain”).
