Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

The willow is too close to the house.

Authoritarian republicans are opposed to freedom for the rest of us.

Infrastructure week. at last.

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

A snarling mass of vitriolic jackals

Red lights blinking on democracy’s dashboard

They traffic in fear. it is their only currency. if we are fearful, they are winning.

T R E 4 5 O N

The cruelty is the point; the law be damned.

I’m pretty sure there’s only one Jack Smith.

A democracy can’t function when people can’t distinguish facts from lies.

A last alliance of elves and men. also pet photos.

Bark louder, little dog.

We still have time to mess this up!

No offense, but this thread hasn’t been about you for quite a while.

A thin legal pretext to veneer over their personal religious and political desires

And we’re all out of bubblegum.

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

When I decide to be condescending, you won’t have to dream up a fantasy about it.

We are builders in a constant struggle with destroyers. let’s win this.

Too often we hand the biggest microphones to the cynics and the critics who delight in declaring failure.

Thanks to your bullshit, we are now under siege.

Today’s GOP: why go just far enough when too far is right there?

When do we start airlifting the women and children out of Texas?

    Karl Rove had the NRA plant a spy in the Gun Grabbing group.

    I’m assuming this plant then raped a Duke Lacrosse player, before calling his buddy Nifong and hiring a stripper.

    OUTRAGE Time for Congressional hearings to look into this!

    I know you are just trolling, and maybe I am being naive, but I can’t imagine how this is a big deal. Isn’t the agenda and strategy of the gun control lobby pretty obvious by now?

    (Sorry for the shameless self promotion with the links, John)

    Just start embedding the damned things.

    Suburban Guerrilla? The lady who dished crap about Obama through the primaries? The one who gleefully quoted racist crap from “riverdaughter” and linked to corrente? The one who deleted comments that corrected her lies?
    No fucking way!

    Forgive and forget.

    Plus, I just feel bad for anyone having enough trouble with their finances that they have to beg for money to pay for health care.

    The two greatest t-shirts of all time!

    Those are pretty good shirts. My brother-in-law owns a silk-screen shop. If I were more of a bastard and a bit more well off, I’d do some sabotage work just like that.

    I’m not knowledgeable about campaign finance in the States. Is it kosher for a Canadian to donate money to the Obama campaign?

    Speaking of t-shirts, I just saw a humorous TV commercial for a local BBQ restaurant and the woman (the momma — that’s how she was identified) in the commercial was wearing a Barack Obama t-shirt. Never seen anything that before.

    I thought blaming the progressive bogeyman Karl Rove would have indicated I was no being serious.
    I was just mocking the peaking of the outrage meter over nothing in a Greenwald/Lady of perpetual outrage Michelle Malkin manner.

    No can do. But you can buy his books.

    I gave $25 directly to barackobama.com so I would be entered in the Backstage with Barack contest.

    When Balloon Juice starts a Bong Hits with Balloon Juice contest I will reconsider and donate my money here.

    Congrats, this is by far the most coherent thing you’ve ever posted here. Only one gross spelling error. Some rather inconsequential grammar issues.

    Did you re-enroll in your GED classes?

    *shrug* I’d never heard of the woman, but I know what it’s like to live without healthcare (or to live as I do now without being able to take a day off to go to the doctor – it’s the same difference).

    You shouldn’t have to beg for what you need to survive. Regardless of her stances, I gave anyway.

    The Feds just busted a diploma mill operating out of the Spokane, WA area. The local paper acquired and published the customer list. My favorite:

    Duwayne Huss, an employee of Nuclear Management Co., operator of two nuclear plants in Minnesota, bought degrees in nuclear engineering and accounting.

    Yikes.

    America, where paper is cheap and lives are even cheaper.

    Last night, the wife and I decided to head to Coos Bay for a couple of days of fun and to see a comic at the casino here. Nice ride on the motorcycle, but we could have done without the rain for the last 50 miles. It is nice and sunny today, so we are heading out for a ride inland through Coquille and Myrtle Point just to do some sightseeing.

    Later people, time to go have fun! :D
