Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

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

Yeah, with this crowd one never knows.

Republicans in disarray!

Republicans don’t want a speaker to lead them; they want a hostage.

You can’t love your country only when you win.

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

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

I really should read my own blog.

Technically true, but collectively nonsense

Impressively dumb. Congratulations.

After roe, women are no longer free.

A snarling mass of vitriolic jackals

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

Nothing worth doing is easy.

The willow is too close to the house.

Perhaps you mistook them for somebody who gives a damn.

Optimism opens the door to great things.

My years-long effort to drive family and friends away has really paid off this year.

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

🎶 Those boots were made for mockin’ 🎵

No one could have predicted…

Why is it so hard for them to condemn hate?

It may be funny to you motherfucker, but it’s not funny to me.

Some judge needs to shut this circus down soon.

    One of the better bumperstickers I’ve seen lately reads:

    “Life is too short for golf.”

    You’d have to add college football to the list.

    Yea, I really don’t understand how people are interested in college football.

    Then again, in Texas people are interested in High School football. Heh.

    College sports are actually interesting, unlike professional sports. Far fewer overpaid primadonnas for one (with the exception of Miami….). Oh yeah…

    GO ARMY! BEAT NAVY!!!

    When I was a young lad I used to get all excited about the Army-Navy game, but that’s because my dad did. He was army.

    I haven’t cared at all, not since I was in the army. I don’t think it has anything to do with the reality of military service, it’s just that they don’t have very good teams anymore.

    Sports, anyway, is organized distraction to keep our eyes off the ball, so to speak mixing the metaphors.

    The Middies were better prepared for the game and Bobby Ross will need to fire John Mumford. The cadets had two weeks to prepare for this game and they did a good job of scoring, but the defense was just abyssmal against the hybrid option that Navy’s been so successful running under Paul Johnson.

    College football is the greatest game anywhere. Service academy football is the last of the real amatures and worth watching.

    I hope Ross can make my beloved Army team a competitor in the coming years. Notre Dame has ALL the service academies on theri schedule next year. I would love to see at least two of them upset the Irish somehow.

    Beat Navy! Beat Notre Dame!
