Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

The next time the wall street journal editorial board speaks the truth will be the first.

I conferred with the team and they all agree – still not tired of winning!

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

If you tweet it in all caps, that makes it true!

The most dangerous place for a black man in America is in a white man’s imagination.

They are lying in pursuit of an agenda.

So it was an October Surprise A Day, like an Advent calendar but for crime.

Innocent people don’t delay justice.

Well, whatever it is, it’s better than being a Republican.

Fear or fury? The choice is ours.

“Just close your eyes and kiss the girl and go where the tilt-a-whirl takes you.” ~OzarkHillbilly

Putting aside our relentless self-interest because the moral imperative is crystal clear.

This isn’t Democrats spending madly. This is government catching up.

The Supreme Court cannot be allowed to become the ultimate, unaccountable arbiter of everything.

If a good thing happens for a bad reason, it’s still a good thing.

Israel is using food as a weapon of war. Unforgivable.

… gradually, and then suddenly.

Seems like a complicated subject, have you tried yelling at it?

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

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

The fundamental promise of conservatism all over the world is a return to an idealized past that never existed.

“Until such time as the world ends, we will act as though it intends to spin on.”

Nothing worth doing is easy.

Sadly, media malpractice has become standard practice.

    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?

    RoonieRoo, dontcha know

    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.
