Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Stamping your little feets and demanding that they see how important you are? Not working anymore.

In my day, never was longer.

“Everybody’s entitled to be an idiot.”

This blog will pay for itself.

The cruelty is the point; the law be damned.

Technically true, but collectively nonsense

Radicalized white males who support Trump are pitching a tent in the abyss.

Polls are now a reliable indicator of what corporate Republicans want us to think.

America is going up in flames. The NYTimes fawns over MAGA celebrities. No longer a real newspaper.

The gop is a fucking disgrace.

Everybody saw this coming.

Text STOP to opt out of updates on war plans.

It’s easy to sit in safety and prescribe what other people should be doing.

The way to stop violence is to stop manufacturing the hatred that fuels it.

Give the craziest people you know everything they want and hope they don’t ask for more? Great plan.

The poor and middle-class pay taxes, the rich pay accountants, the wealthy pay politicians.

Sadly, media malpractice has become standard practice.

After dobbs, women are no longer free.

Sometimes the world just tells you your cat is here.

We know you aren’t a Democrat but since you seem confused let me help you.

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

If you thought you’d already seen people saying the stupidest things possible on the internet, prepare yourselves.

We can’t confuse what’s necessary to win elections with the policies that we want to implement when we do.

Republicans don’t lie to be believed, they lie to be repeated.

    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.

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