Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

American History and Black History Cannot Be Separated

If you’re pissed about Biden’s speech, he was talking about you.

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

Republicans choose power over democracy, every day.

Let’s not be the monsters we hate.

Good lord, these people are nuts.

In short, I come down firmly on all sides of the issue.

It’s easy to sit in safety and prescribe what other people should be doing.

It’s the corruption, stupid.

Happy indictment week to all who celebrate!

A consequence of cucumbers

Everybody saw this coming.

We are builders in a constant struggle with destroyers. let’s win this.

Republicans: slavery is when you own me. freedom is when I own you.

It’s always darkest before the other shoe drops.

Republican obstruction dressed up as bipartisanship. Again.

fuckem (in honor of the late great efgoldman)

Joe Lieberman disappointingly reemerged to remind us that he’s still alive.

This really is a full service blog.

Only Democrats have agency, apparently.

Ah, the different things are different argument.

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

Technically true, but collectively nonsense

… riddled with inexplicable and elementary errors of law and fact

This post is in: 

Dale Franks confronts Hugh Hewitt’s continued insistence that Miers is the right person for the job, and Jeff Goldstein cooks up another treat.

In other Miers-related news, if this snippet of the blogosphere’s opinion regarding Miers can be generalized to the larger public, Miers is in trouble. As I write this, there are 255 blogs opposed (70%), 55 blogs who are neutral (15%), and 51 who support (14%).

    The problem with that of course is that the vast majority of the American public doesn’t care that much about a Supreme Court justice. This is an activists fight more than anything.

    Didn’t we learn anything from the Dean-in-the-primaries debacle? When it comes to opinion, blogs are like film critics–they may be right, but you can’t predict box office by them.

    At least this recipe looks marginally better than the HH Shit Sandwich. It comes from Emeril, though, so you gotta be careful not to put in entire bulb of garlic or half a jug of red wine just because some people clap and go “WHOOO!”

    Miers will be confirmed unless she does horribly in the hearings. Senate Republicans will not vote Miers down and risk an angry veto pen for the next 3 years. In a year most conservatives will have to appologize to Miers. Those too proud to admit they erred will continue to snipe like the fever swamp does.

    Yeh, they’d have to apologize for putting her in a job that she is completely unprepared for. Voting the “right” way is not enough, at least for those who take the highest court seriously.

    Why does John Cole hate America?

    Isn’t it wonderful to see the right-wing hate machine turned against the right-wing hate machine?
