Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

This has so much WTF written all over it that it is hard to comprehend.

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

I’m sure you banged some questionable people yourself.

Reality always lies in wait for … Democrats.

Nothing worth doing is easy.

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

Spilling the end game before they can coat it in frankl luntz-approved dogwhistles.

If you are still in the GOP, you are an extremist.

You are so fucked. Still, I wish you the best of luck.

Damn right I heard that as a threat.

Come on, media. you have one job. start doing it.

Meanwhile over at truth Social, the former president is busy confessing to crimes.

And we’re all out of bubblegum.

I’d like to think you all would remain faithful to me if i ever tried to have some of you killed.

Thanks for reminding me that Van Jones needs to be slapped.

Speaking of republicans, is there a way for a political party to declare intellectual bankruptcy?

fuckem (in honor of the late great efgoldman)

This fight is for everything.

No one could have predicted…

Republicans are radicals, not conservatives.

Putting aside our relentless self-interest because the moral imperative is crystal clear.

The GOP is a fucking disgrace.

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

We’ll be taking my thoughts and prayers to the ballot box.

    Sayeth the Red Stater:

    My Gosh, what has the world come to when we have to look to Harry Reid as someone who is not only right on principle but a voice for common sense.

    That would be a world where most Republicans have abandoned common sense and principles in favor of using 9/11 as a cudgel.

    Leave it to the Republicans to yank the Dims nuts out of the fire by clouding a simple case of congressional bribery by turning it into a case of separartion of powers. Idiots.

    Usually that’s a job for the Democrats.

    That had to be a tough pill for them to swallow. It made for a fun read.

    I am not going to make any judgements about right or wrong here since I do not know constitutional law.

    Yeah, even the stupidest damned collection of morons to inhabit the planet can be right once in a while.

    But don’t worry, Red State has another thread debunking global warming based on evidence from corporate think tanks.

    That’s not stopping the rest of us.

    The comments thread there takes an interesting turn. It’s postulated that the Republicans are protesting in a naive but honest way (being such unaccomplished opportunists), whereas Harry Reid is showing himself for the cold, calculating, nihilistic thief that he is… with his press statement. Is that commenter a spoof? I can’t decide. Does anyone here have anything to say for themselves? ;)

    I was especially entertained by the comments explaining that the reason why a disproportionate number of Republicans were getting busted was because the Dems were just so much better at stealing and not getting caught. I love it!

    This just in, the embattled congressman, Jefferson, he has ‘declined’ Pelosi’s plea for him to step down from his committee post, even with all the evidence regarding his corrupt practices while in office. Selfish bastard. By refusing to symbolically fall on his sword, he prevents the Democrats from presenting their party as potential reformers this election cycle. The rightwingnuts can keep spouting the distortion that corruption is ‘bipartisan’ rather than wholly Republican (when in truth the corruption is severely tilted to the right: with Jefferson in the mix, it’s like 100 Republicans per 1 Democrat).
    If I were Pelosi, I’d just kick him out of the party, right now. He ain’t worth it.

    Otto Man Says:

    Red State praising Harry Reid? Isn’t that one of the biblical signs of Armageddon?

    The way things are now with all the Bush screwups, we’re up to 12 Signs of the Apocalypse, 19 broken Seals, and 193 Whores of Babylon hanging out with Foggo at the Watergate. Sheesh.

    Yep. Cunningham was brazen because he was so unaccomplished. He (and all the other indicted Reps) just aren’t GOOD at corruption.

    How fucking heartwarming.

    Finally some bipartisanship. Hastert and Pelosi come together for the righteous cause of protecting your constitutional right to stuff bribe money in your freezer without the risk of pesky FBI agents coming to search your office. I think I’m gonna cry.

    Pelosi has the power to yank his committee asignments. Schumer has the power to yank his party support. Every other Dem has the power to give him a swift kick in the ass. It’s past time they do it.

    Not really. Dems won’t support him, and he’ll be out there twisting in the wind. Won’t affect Dems much at all.
