Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Something needs to be done about our bogus SCOTUS.

A consequence of cucumbers

Whoever he was, that guy was nuts.

Ah, the different things are different argument.

It’s always darkest before the other shoe drops.

I’d try pessimism, but it probably wouldn’t work.

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

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

Historically it was a little unusual for the president to be an incoherent babbling moron.

Prediction: the GOP will rethink its strategy of boycotting future committees.

You don’t get to peddle hatred on saturday and offer condolences on sunday.

Nancy smash is sick of your bullshit.

I didn’t have alien invasion on my 2023 BINGO card.

Let me eat cake. The rest of you could stand to lose some weight, frankly.

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

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

Since when do we limit our critiques to things we could do better ourselves?

He really is that stupid.

Accountability, motherfuckers.

… pundit janitors mopping up after the GOP

Fuck these fucking interesting times.

But frankly mr. cole, I’ll be happier when you get back to telling us to go fuck ourselves.

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

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

    Blogger fatigue, eh? Don’t worry, I am sure that plenty of material will be available real soon.

    That’s just the way it is. Shit happens, you write about it and everything is right in the world (ok, or so we wish).

    Good morning to you too John. ;)

    Obama’s Heroism
    Daniel Halper – 12.10.2008 – 8:01 AM

    Jen and Abe have been all over Governor Blagojevich’s corruption, but they missed the primary reason the feds were able to catch this sleazy politico–luckily, the New York Times picks up the slack. The fine people of Illinois can thank Barack Obama, and a key (better: revelatory) telephone call he made, for the justice that’s finally being served in the prairie state:

    In a sequence of events that neatly captures the contradictions of Barack Obama’s rise through Illinois politics, a phone call he made three months ago to urge passage of a state ethics bill indirectly contributed to the downfall of a fellow Democrat he twice supported, Gov. Rod R. Blagojevich.

    Mr. Obama placed the call to his political mentor, Emil Jones Jr., president of the Illinois Senate. Mr. Jones was a critic of the legislation, which sought to curb the influence of money in politics, as was Mr. Blagojevich, who had vetoed it. But after the call from Mr. Obama, the Senate overrode the veto, prompting the governor to press state contractors for campaign contributions before the law’s restrictions could take effect on Jan. 1, prosecutors say.

    Tipped off to Mr. Blagojevich’s efforts, federal agents obtained wiretaps for his phones and eventually overheard what they say was scheming by the governor to profit from his appointment of a successor to the United States Senate seat being vacated by President-elect Obama.

    Now wingnuts, all together now. What was Obama’s relationship with the Blago?

    Obama being…….tied……to (can’t stop laughing)…..Blago.

    Seriously, I challenge you to try to read this link. It’s like Six Degrees of Stupidity Bacon With a Side of Idiots.

    I’m pretty sure she could find a way to tie the Magna Carta, the Holocaust, and beef jerky together, if it meant the downfall of a Democrat.

    Juggs’s ranting is harmless enough, but after listening to Isikoff’s breathless panty-bunching on Maddow last night, I worry that this turns into Whitewater II. Our craven media can handle just so much administrative competence before they get bored.

    OT: Rachel Maddow and Mark Teixeira, separated at birth. Discuss.

    Incertus

    @Punchy: Yeah, that’s a black hole of stupid going on in there. Let me get this straight–Obama and SEIU have a relationship. Blago wants something from SEIU and Obama in exchange for appointing Obama’s preferred candidate into his old seat, but gets nothing. Therefore, Obama and Blago are best friends.

    Man, I haven’t had enough coffee yet to deal with that level of stupid.

    Looks like the Christmas spirit is underwhelming in Louisiana this year.

    SHREVEPORT, LA (KSLA) – A 32-year-old Shreveport man is now recovering at home after he says he was badly beaten at a west Shreveport gas station for wearing a Barack Obama t-shirt.

    The scaled-down holiday party at work includes sugar cookies, soft drinks, and a showing of "It’s a Wonderful Life."

    Really? The story about how a depression-era mortgage banker is really the hero of the working man?

    I think I’ll stick to Seuss this year.
