Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Ah, the different things are different argument.

The party of Reagan has become the party of Putin.

They fucked up the fucking up of the fuckup!

The worst democrat is better than the best republican.

Black Jesus loves a paper trail.

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

Nancy smash is sick of your bullshit.

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

Despite his magical powers, I don’t think Trump is thinking this through, to be honest.

Motto for the House: Flip 5 and lose none.

Perhaps you mistook them for somebody who gives a damn.

The poor and middle-class pay taxes, the rich pay accountants, the wealthy pay politicians.

Russian mouthpiece, go fuck yourself.

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

Let’s not be the monsters we hate.

Come on, man.

Usually wrong but never in doubt

The GOP couldn’t organize an orgy in a whorehouse with a fist full of 50s.

Prediction: the GOP will rethink its strategy of boycotting future committees.

This really is a full service blog.

I’m sure you banged some questionable people yourself.

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

Why is it so hard for them to condemn hate?

Accountability, motherfuckers.

    You romantic bane, you.

    That was very nice of them, and ditto on the “much deserved” comment. Really, who else would put up with we hooligans with the humour that you exhibit?

    Congratulations, cool….I love your romantic acerbity (is that a word?). My favourite blog of all…your willingness to look at everything (well almost everything) without a righteous knee-jerk in turn makes me do the same…plus I thoroughly enjoy the wit…

    Congrats, and a question: what’s the record for the number of replies to a thread? The FISA argument is up to 301 right now… sadly, half of them are along the lines “Shut up/No you shut up” schoolyard give-and-take… :-/

    Congratulations, John. Now, if you can only find regular visitors whose comments on your site don’t boil down to unrestrained sarcasm bordering on Tourette’s Syndrome. (Of course, I’m referring to ppJazzhands and his clones.)

    I’m with Steve. You well deserve the mention, but putting you up with Malkin (and after her, no less) is damning you with faint praise.

    Much deserved. To be in the same company as Micheal Yon is a true honor in blogging/journalist sense.

    He did fail to mention the best part of your blog and the real reason people flock to your site: Cat Blogging.

    Merry Christmas!

    Your Faithful Reader,

    Perhaps I’m just old and don’t “get it”, but the blogosphere appears to be a more self-congratulatory wind tunnel than even Hollywood.

    You have a “reasoned defense” of the Iraq war? News to me. Pray tell what would it be? I’ve never read anything from you this past year that resembles anything close to a coherent post about why you believe the Iraq war is the right thing to do. And if you’ve written about that in the past, your archives are missing so as not to be able to find them.

    We can find all sorts of things you don’t believe in on this site, but why we are fighting in Iraq or a reasoned defense of that policy doesn’t seem to be one of them.

    …and he can balance a box of wine on his belly!

    I’m still trying to figure out if that’s admirable, or just sad. Don’t haul that trick out on the first date, John.

    I thought it was funny! And you still managed to post coherent sentences. But ok, you seem to remember the headaches of the morning after :P

    John Cole Says:

    I vote pathetic and sad.

    But that’s what makes you likeable. A lot of blog owners have seem to feel that they crap diamonds out of a platinum asshole. (Sorry…) You let us see the real you, flaws and all.

    I was going to say “warts and all”, but figured that it wouldn’t do to have rumours circulating about you having warts.

    John…

    …If praise from Michelle Malkin or pride in being lumped with her vitriolic spew is comforting to you…you need a good look in the mirror.
