Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Republicans: slavery is when you own me. freedom is when I own you.

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

They traffic in fear. it is their only currency. if we are fearful, they are winning.

That’s my take and I am available for criticism at this time.

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

Shallow, uninformed, and lacking identity

Wow, I can’t imagine what it was like to comment in morse code.

Whatever happens next week, the fight doesn’t end.

Damn right I heard that as a threat.

It’s the corruption, stupid.

The cruelty is the point; the law be damned.

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

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

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

Impressively dumb. Congratulations.

They are lying in pursuit of an agenda.

This fight is for everything.

Imperialist aggressors must be defeated, or the whole world loses.

Putin dreamed of ending NATO, and now it’s Finnish-ed.

If you’re pissed about Biden’s speech, he was talking about you.

Republicans don’t want a speaker to lead them; they want a hostage.

We’ll be taking my thoughts and prayers to the ballot box.

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

Reality always lies in wait for … Democrats.

    So you LIKE being toyed with? Nice to see he has his comfy spots in the new digs though, should make the transition much easier.

    Cole, you’ve been a cat owner for how long? You can put anything down on a couch: blanket, jacket, towel, newspaper, laptop case, laptop, etc and it’s a sure bet the cat will lay down on it.

    I am going to stand for your decorating color meld -fu, on this one. That is a fetching scene and down to earthy liberal like. Of course, I’m the guy with red curtains that beds down in a purple sleeping bag. I stay one step ahead of the long arm of fashion cops.

    Yutsano, What transition? The cat moved in and said new furniture and a window, I hit the lottery.

    This is what happens when you force feed your cat Lime Daquiris.

    Okay I can’t resist just because it popped into my head and it’s slightly OT: horses will drink beer. In fact if you let them they’ll get pissed on the stuff. Takes a LOT to get a horse drunk though.

    Crap, the last pic of Lily was with her perched on the couch, cat-like. And this is a standard “dog” pose! I sense some wires getting crossed here :(

    Cole probably thinks this only worked because the blanket has pictures of cats on it.

    I saw that BHF, and right now I have zero ideas for dinner right at this moment. Only thing is I’m home alone right now and I’m not entirely in the mood to run to the store. Work sucked this week, I need to get on a plane and do nothing in Arizona for four days BAD.

    The sentiment is appreciated, but I actually can’t get to flickr out here. Most media sites are blocked.

    Grrr arrrgh growl snarl gnashing of teef. I guess you’ll have to trust that it’s cute and it also applies to your situation. And it involves puppehs.

    Uhh, no. It’s a puppy peeking out the window of a Humvee. I remember that whole mishegas though.

    Huzzah!

    Although one of these cats doesn’t belong here.

    Did Tunch just want to be surrounded by cats that are actually doing stuff? So he could feel superior maybe?

    RIP, John Forsythe (age 92, though)

    Re the Tunch photo: sorry, I’m having one of those moments when looking at that pic is like viewing an optical illusion and I can only see one view of it. Those two smudges or whatewver in front, are they supposed to be his *eyes* or what? If so, they’re set kind of oddly. The BB screen is tiny, so I can’t really embiggen this until I’m back at a desktop. I’ll try this again in a couple of hours. Maybe my brain will relax a bit and I can see it more accurately.

    @ BHF: I think really only one of us is close enough to go camp out and feast for days at his place. That individual is also fake-married to me and doesn’t cook so she would be in Paradise!

    I like Bette. Never saw Fantasia though.

    Her intro is just fine, I just am partial to Russian composers. That particular segment got a lot of flak for the big changes to the ending of the story. It’s Disney people jeez, did you expect them to be totally faithful to Mulan too? BTW I will go on the record and say I liked Mulan, feel free to mock me as you wish.

    SiubhanDuinne @ 8:27 pm — It looks to me that Tunch has his head sort of pointed downwards; the colored patches are above his eyes, more on the top of his head.

    @ SiubhanDuinne:

    Does this mean if John hosts a seder it will be gefilte fish and nothing else?

    I go haz nap now. BBL y’all.

    There is a fox prowling around near my chicken coop right now (they’re locked up safe), and my dog is just lying down on the bed with a concerned look on her face. She will be afraid to go out in the morning.

    I guess Labs are not the best livestock guardian dogs.

    Assholes of the week

    Lt. Col. Terry Lakin, an Army physician, has refused to obey any orders from his commanding officers — including President Obama — until Obama produces his birth certificate.

    Florida urologist Jack Cassell posted a sign on his office door reading, “If you voted for Obama … seek urologic care elsewhere. Changes to your health care begin right now, not in four years.”

    LOL. Clearly someone had more than the traditional four small glasses of wine at the sedar….

    @Mike Kay

    Sure did. The speech wasn’t anything impressive, just standard boiler plate “blah blah, America loves you, keep up the fight, you guys are the shit, blah blah” stuff. The experience was neat though, I’d never gotten a chance to see him speak. Got to shake his hand too, but only for a sec.

    Did you notice he is black? It’s true. It says so on his census form…

    How is this cat different from all other cats?

    Love the gefilte-fish only seder.

    Next year on the futon!

    [email protected] Lakin needs to be kicked out of the service and since he has only served 18 years seems like he will not be due pension. I certainly don’t want my tax money supporting him.

    During the Bosnian war I was flown into Sarajevo on a US military food aid flight. At that time I was about 100lbs, and as I am only 5 feet tall, I quickly realized that they don’t make helmuts and flax jackets in petite….When the military guys stopped laughing, I asked for help getting in and out of the plane…

    Military clothes aren’t supposed to fit. The fatigue pants they gave me in basic only reached to mid shin. Too much comfort is bad for morale, or something.

    Litlebritdifrnt

    Annie – they don’t make gas masks in petite either, I was sick and tired of getting gassed every year when the annual “gas mask” test was required, I eventually started bribing my male colleagues with copious amounts of beer to test my mask for me, cause damn I was tired of getting gassed.

    PS) Where the hell did the reply function go to? Did tunch eated it?

    @General Egali Tarian Stuck

    The military guys nicknamed me “lips,” as the helmut came down down to my mouth, and the flax jacket to my knees. Only my complaining mouth was visible….

    It is an adorable pic of The Tunch.

    But as to the caption: Beware, John Cole, I sense Tunch is setting someting up. It’s a trick. Leave the house now! Right now!

    General Egali Tarian Stuck

    I’m probably tired, but for some reason, this made me laugh ‘till I cried.

    when I still had my little hamster army a few years ago, I could watch them for hours and laugh so hard my side would hurt. they are natural born comedians.

    OK. I now understand how this works. I don’t show up at night, and a Tunch piccie gets posted! Man, I love that cat with a passion that is a tad unseemly. Don’t judge me!

    Yutsano, after seeing the sesame chicken in an earlier thread, I asked jeffreyw how long it would take me to drive to his place. Oh my god that looks amazing.

    Gen. Stuck, thanks for the music. I’m grooving to it now. I needed my mellow.

    A happy Tunchie makes for a happy BJ community!
