Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

DeSantis transforming Florida into 1930s Germany with gators and theme parks.

Books are my comfort food!

Since we are repeating ourselves, let me just say fuck that.

Giving in to doom is how authoritarians win.

They spent the last eight months firing professionals and replacing them with ideologues.

One lie, alone, tears the fabric of reality.

Sometimes the world just tells you your cat is here.

So fucking stupid, and still doing a tremendous amount of damage.

Second rate reporter says what?

Narcissists are always shocked to discover other people have agency.

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

There are more Russians standing up to Putin than Republicans.

They love authoritarianism, but only when they get to be the authoritarians.

This really is a full service blog.

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

Fundamental belief of white supremacy: white people are presumed innocent, minorities are presumed guilty.

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

The rest of the comments were smacking Boebert like she was a piñata.

“I was told there would be no fact checking.”

If you are still in the gop, you are either an extremist yourself, or in bed with those who are.

Let the trolls come, and then ignore them. that’s the worst thing you can do to a troll.

I’d hate to be the candidate who lost to this guy.

The snowflake in chief appeared visibly frustrated when questioned by a reporter about egg prices.

I would gladly pay you tuesday for a hamburger today.

Conservative of the Year!

by | 95 Comments

This post is in: , ,

Human Events declares that Sarah Palin is the conservative of the year. Ann Coulter does the honors:

Sarah Palin wins HUMAN EVENTS’ prestigious “Conservative of the Year” Award for 2008 for her genius at annoying all the right people. The last woman to get liberals this hot under the collar would have been … let’s see now … oh, yeah: Me!

The entire presidential election year was kind of a downer for conservatives. Once the “maverick” John McCain won the nomination, the rest of the year was like watching a slow motion car crash. Except at least a slow-motion car crash is occasionally entertaining. So it was going to be a long year.

Until Palin.

When McCain chose our beauteous Sarah as his running mate, the maverick was finally acting like a real maverick — as opposed to the media’s definition of a “maverick” which is: “agreeing with the editorial positions of the New York Times.”

HoYay! Or is it Les Yay? Whatever.

Seriously, the only people more excited about this than the Palin dead-enders are… every single Democrat in the country. Hold her close. Embrace the Palin. Show the country this is your vision for the future GOP.

Pretty please?

Bob Corker- SUCK ON THIS

Clearly, Toyota employees make too much money and need to take a wage cut:

Toyota Motor, the Japanese auto giant, announced Monday that it expected the first loss in 70 years in its core vehicle-making business, underscoring how the economic crisis is spreading across the global auto industry.

Analysts said Toyota’s downward revision, its second in two months, showed that the worst financial crisis since the Depression is threatening not just the Big Three but even relatively healthy automakers in Japan, South Korea and Europe. Many other companies will also soon be reporting losses.

Worse, analysts said that they expect next year to be even more painful, amid forecasts that the global economy will continue to slide until at least the summer. This could cause a significant shakeout, driving cash-strapped smaller and weaker companies into the arms of a smaller number of bigger, richer players.

“It is just a matter of time before all major automakers are losing money,” an auto analyst in Tokyo for Credit Suisse Securities, Koji Endo, said. “And things will just get worse next year, when companies start losing money for the second consecutive year.”

Personally, I blame the UAW.

Namely, she doesn’t understand the independence and libertarian nature of blogging.

This is just a weird and odd response to a rather trivial post, and I think we are all obligated to spend our time filling the comments here trashing the Third Way.

Why? Because we can, and no suit will tell us otherwise.

*** Update ***

Also at OTB, this post by Dave Schuler, in which he comes to the following conclusion:

And that’s when it struck me: the blogosphere is full of jerks.

And, without further comment, I present the greatest Penny Arcade ever. What else needs to be said?

*** Update #2 ***

Drexel Dems are aware of all internet traditions. Do we define this as a LOLCAP?

*** Update #3 ***

Damage Control for the Damage Control.

Just so we are clear, every thought here posted under my name is mine and mine alone. Unless you think it is really stupid, in which case, blame Tim.
