Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Not all heroes wear capes.

When your entire life is steeped in white supremacy, equality feels like discrimination.

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

Republicans are the party of chaos and catastrophe.

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

I know this must be bad for Joe Biden, I just don’t know how.

In my day, never was longer.

All your base are belong to Tunch.

Only Democrats have agency, apparently.

Thanks to your bullshit, we are now under siege.

It’s the corruption, stupid.

Damn right I heard that as a threat.

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

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

New McCarthy, same old McCarthyism.

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

It may be funny to you motherfucker, but it’s not funny to me.

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

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

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

Something needs to be done about our bogus SCOTUS.

Tick tock motherfuckers!

Insiders who complain to politico: please report to the white house office of shut the fuck up.

Let’s not be the monsters we hate.

    I have a theory about this. Bush knows (at least, I assume Rove told him) that he can’t run for a 3rd term. Now suddenly we get this woman most people never heard of, who mangles the English language, oozes fake folksiness, and has a heavy accent that’s easy to fake. Both of them seem to be in hiding, to the point where Bush didn’t even attend the convention. The real tipoff was when she said "nook-yoo-lar."

    Has anyone actually seen Bush & Palin together?

    I’m just hoping that there is a plurality of Americans who are saying "Fool me once…."

    Meh. Kind of a weak vid on substance: every "non-Washington" candidate runs on "change," "reform," "bi-partisanship," and a new "spirit" (or whatever). The rhetoric mash-up is kind of neither here nor there, imo (you could probably do it with Obama’s early rhetoric, circa 2007).

    What really nails the similarity btwn Bush and Palin is the folksy "charm" (read=creepiness). And that slo-mo wink is . . . um . . . well, it’s sure something all right.

    Also: To much K.O. (I’m getting rather sick of that guy).

    The fact that Palin is anywhere near the postition she is right now says that this country’s mind is totally fucked up. If McCain/Palin win, we as a country need to be institutionalized for the safety of the rest of the world. Needless to say, nobody gets to not vote this November.

    She’s even more like Bush in a skirt than Bush is like Bush in a skirt.

    Frankly I don’t think their remarks are too similar. And if promoting bipartisanship and change are indication of Bush-style politics, well then I’d hate to see an Obama presidency.
    Not saying McCain/Palin would offer any significant divergence from Bush’s policies, of course. Just saying that this particular line of attack isn’t the most honest, or effective.

    I prefer this video:

    Some of the comments aren’t too similar, but the idea behind the video is still a little creepy.
