Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Sadly, media malpractice has become standard practice.

My years-long effort to drive family and friends away has really paid off this year.

They want us to be overwhelmed and exhausted. Focus. Resist. Oppose.

It’s pointless to bring up problems that can only be solved with a time machine.

These days, even the boring Republicans are nuts.

Today’s gop: why go just far enough when too far is right there?

If ‘weird’ was the finish line, they ran through the tape and kept running.

The republican ‘Pastor’ of the House is an odious authoritarian little creep.

Republicans cannot even be trusted with their own money.

Just because you believe it, that does not make it true.

Fuck these fucking interesting times.

“What are Republicans afraid of?” Everything.

I’m starting to think Jesus may have made a mistake saving people with no questions asked.

“Facilitate” is an active verb, not a weasel word.

Relentless negativity is not a sign that you are more realistic.

I desperately hope that, yet again, i am wrong.

Today in our ongoing national embarrassment…

We will not go back.

My right to basic bodily autonomy is not on the table. that’s the new deal.

… pundit janitors mopping up after the gop

’Where will you hide, Roberts, the laws all being flat?’

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

How stupid are these people?

Too often we hand the biggest microphones to the cynics and the critics who delight in declaring failure.

    Wow, that was random, Cole! Didn’t even know they were playing tonight. Hey, I guess it takes an ex-Bearcats coach to get WV a winning record, so enjoy. Right after you go to hell! You go to hell and you die!

    Guess I better start paying attention so I can fill out my brackets this weekend! At least Auburn got beat today. The SEC ain’t so hot this year, I don’t know that any of them who manage to get into the Dance will make it past the first weekend.

    West Vag looks pretty damn good this year. If only Chuggins can stay off the sauce for 4 more weeks, they may get the oppy to be summarily destroyed by Kansas…….

    @Mark S.:

    Well, yeah, but even the vaunted Cats haven’t been the juggernaut they were in the past.

    Did my eyes decieve me or is the Mountaineer a girl? If so, yay!

    As much as I’m thankful for WVU’s helluva season this year (the fact that they’re in the discussion for a #1 seed, however distant, is amazing), I just have a bad feeling about their tournament chances. They just can’t keep a lead, or they give the first half away and are forced to blaze back in the 2nd.

    And what’s with the hollering and jeering in the Garden for this game?

    Holy sweet green Jesus.

    Clutch shot by Butler there, and we escape with a win we shouldn’t have, by all rights. I’ll take it, but yeah, this is why I’m scared for the ‘Eers’ tourney chances.

    Oh, do people still play (and watch) college basketball?

    I’m on the West Coast, where the Pac-10 has completely dominated in terms of total and absolute mediocrity.

    Go Lobos! They’ve had a great season so far. Now let’s see if they can clean up at the tournament.

    Eat shit Pac 10. Mountain West Conference will get as many as four bids to The Dance.

    Glad to see GaTech put ol’ Roy out of his misery. Talk about doing less with more.

    Meanwhile, the “shockingly unathletic” ( thanks for the line, Gottlieb, ya putz) will be the last ones standing. Get ready to see Jon Scheyer wearing the net around his neck on April 5.

    I’m a huge UConn fan. *cries* This has been the most craptacular year in the history of craptacular. At least in the early 80s they were supposed to suck. Calhoun did sign a four year extension… so that’s an definite “woohoo!”

    … now for something I thought I’d never utter as a UConn fan: “When does football season start!!”

    We open with Michigan at the big house…
