Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

The republican caucus is covering themselves with something, and it’s not glory.

Whatever happens next week, the fight doesn’t end.

You can’t attract Republican voters. You can only out organize them.

The arc of history bends toward the same old fuckery.

Republicans got rid of McCarthy. Democrats chose not to save him.

Republicans: The threats are dire, but my tickets are non-refundable!

Schmidt just says fuck it, opens a tea shop.

This really is a full service blog.

Imperialist aggressors must be defeated, or the whole world loses.

Dear Washington Post, you are the darkness now.

The real work of an opposition party is to hold the people in power accountable.

Bad people in a position to do bad things will do bad things because they are bad people. End of story.

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

Sadly, media malpractice has become standard practice.

Accused of treason; bitches about the ratings. I am in awe.

Nancy smash is sick of your bullshit.

Never forget that he train is barreling down on Trump, even as he dances on the tracks.

This blog will pay for itself.

Trump makes a mockery of the legal system and cowardly judges just sit back and let him.

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Sitting here in limbo waiting for the dice to roll

Usually wrong but never in doubt

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

If ‘weird’ was the finish line, they ran through the tape and kept running.

    Some of my favorite posts at the Great Orange Satan are Darksyde’s science updates. I almost never miss one.

    Hey, here’s a crazy solstice fact for you. There is no official start to winter. No scientific body or international standards organization has ever sat down to say when winter officially starts. So that snow you’ve been shovelling the last three weeks? You can call it winter, and spit in the faces of the nitpickers who tell you that winter doesn’t start until the 21st. (They’re usually wrong about the actual date of the solstice too).

    If running naked while on mind-altering substances under the stars and baying to the crystal clear night sky (And really, who can honestly say they’ve never done it?) on the solstice is important to your beliefs

    It’s good to not be alone.

    Question for all you smart-alecks here:
    We all know supporters of Ron Paul bring an unmistakable… fervor to this primary season, and they passionately hold the opinion the good doctor isn’t getting a fair shake from the Establishment.
    Say, hypothetically, Paul gets creamed in Iowa and New Hampshire. Will his supporters go quietly into that good night, or will they claim their man has been screwed? And if it’s the latter, what will they do about this injustice?
    Just food for thought…

    [If] Paul gets creamed in Iowa and New Hampshire. Will his supporters go quietly into that good night, or will they claim their man has been screwed? And if it’s the latter, what will they do about this injustice?

    They’ll do what they’ve always done: they’ll complain about how the Jew-media distorted their message and the *inner-city drug-pushers* distorted the vote.

    Then they’ll retreat to their compounds in Idaho and plot their next beer-hall putsch.

    I’m guessing that they’ll rage against the dying of the light.

    From the other orange meat [Reason‘s Hit & Run group blog], Nick Gillespie on Dinesh D’Souza: the principle of moral freedom, that is “the freedom to live however you want as long as you don’t harm others,” is controversial.

    Bonus, libertarians are run-amok pillow-biting dope-fiends.

    Until I saw this:

    I was actually unaware that the continued US Occupation of Iraq was illegal under Iraqi law, and has been for longer than you’d think.

    El Residente has Maliki following his rulebook in dealing with Legislative Branch opposition, just ignore it and sign whatever the hell you want. It’s not like anyone’s paying any attention.

    I honestly think that Ron Paul could shock everyone and do surprisingly well in at least one of the primaries–maybe coming in third, or even second, if (when?) there are more scandals involving the crossdresser, the imaginary marcher, etc.

    At that point, you’d hope that he’d run as a third-party candidate. And he could be the perfect storm, as he can peel off both sane righties (anti-war, pro-Constitution) and more traditional ones (abortion a nationwide crime, xenophobic).

    That’s really unfair. Mostly, they’re just bigots who want to be able to -sell- smoke pot without fear of legal repercussions.

    It is an interesting question about Paul’s long term impact on R politics. I think this time around the Huck will gut most of Paul’s impact, down the road it’s something to think about.

    The eventual R nominee and what happens in Nov is going to mean something.

    The Other Steve

    I suspect Ron Paul’s only real purpose is to try to keep “libertarians” as part of the Republican party.

    I can’t think of any other reason why he runs as a Republican, other than to provide cover.

    Wow! Hey, our very own calipygian (misspelling and all) just had his/her last diary entry bumped to the FP on the the Great Orange Satan (or the Great Orange Julius Caesar, or whatever).

    Putting an end to the magnet is the idea that will work, the problem is that the sanctions for employers are minor, there already is a federal sanction – notable for not workng at all.

    So how long is Drudge going to keep the Huckabee “YOU… CHRIST… A HAPPY YEAR” picture up on his site?

    Of course, the placement of the candy cane to frame the message is totally coincidental… yeah…
