Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

“Can i answer the question? No you can not!”

A sufficient plurality of insane, greedy people can tank any democratic system ever devised, apparently.

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

You come for women, you’re gonna get your ass kicked.

When tyranny becomes law, rebellion becomes duty. ~Thomas Jefferson

When someone says they “love freedom”, rest assured they don’t mean yours.

Not loving this new fraud based economy.

“Perhaps I should have considered other options.” (head-desk)

75% of people clapping liked the show!

You passed on an opportunity to be offended? What are you even doing here?

So fucking stupid, and still doing a tremendous amount of damage.

Fight for a just cause, love your fellow man, live a good life.

Let me file that under fuck it.

Never entrust democracy to any process that requires Republicans to act in good faith.

These days, even the boring Republicans are nuts.

Quote tweet friends, screenshot enemies.

In after Baud. Damn.

It’s always darkest before the other shoe drops.

’Where will you hide, Roberts, the laws all being flat?’

That’s my take and I am available for criticism at this time.

Stop using mental illness to avoid talking about armed white supremacy.

Fight them, without becoming them!

Innocent people do not delay justice.

White supremacy is terrorism.

    So, would y’all think that the US Gov’t tracks or monitors the number, location and risks associated with the proliferation of biolabs researching things like anthrax and what-not?

    If so, you would be wrong:

    No single federal agency, according to 12 agencies’ responses to our survey, has the mission to track the overall number of BSL-3 and BSL-4 labs in the United States. Though several agencies have a need to know, no one agency knows the number and location of these labs in the United States. Consequently, no agency is responsible for determining the risks associated with the proliferation of these labs.

    My wife and I were recently talking about the oddness of Disney having created a cartoon character whose name is a polite expletive euphemism for Jesus Christ. (This came up in the context of one of Larry Craig’s statements, based on his strange style of cursing: “Jiminy God!”) I wonder if that would pass without comment today?

    Republicans lost another one.

    Edina Mayor Jim Hovland just switched parties, intends to try to get the Democratic nomination for replacing Jim Ramstad in Minnesota’s 3rd.

    A longtime Republican, he is not shy about expressing frustration over what he sees as the extreme nature of the Republican Party these days, calling it “a marching progression to a more consolidated base and a smaller party.”

    Looks like he was courted by the DCCC.

    And it looks like a Iraq war vet might challenge Kline in the 2nd.
