Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Whoever he was, that guy was nuts.

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

“And when the Committee says to “report your income,” that could mean anything!

Michigan is a great lesson for Dems everywhere: when you have power…use it!

Let’s show the world that autocracy can be defeated.

“I never thought they’d lock HIM up,” sobbed a distraught member of the Lock Her Up Party.

They think we are photo bombing their nice little lives.

“They not like us!” (that’s for sure!)

Accused of treason; bitches about the ratings. I am in awe.

Innocent people don’t delay justice.

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

Following reporting rules is only for the little people, apparently.

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

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

Shallow, uninformed, and lacking identity

Is it irresponsible to speculate? It is irresponsible not to.

A sufficient plurality of insane, greedy people can tank any democratic system ever devised, apparently.

fuckem (in honor of the late great efgoldman)

Authoritarian republicans are opposed to freedom for the rest of us.

Red lights blinking on democracy’s dashboard

Washington Post’s Catch and Kill, not noticeably better than the Enquirer’s.

So many bastards, so little time.

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

You can’t love your country only when you win.

An Even Better Use Of Your Time

Leadership in the House is doing a whip count for the Employment Non-Discrimination Act RIGHT NOW. The same blogger has more here about the bill and the current state of play.

Your calls do the most good at tipping moments like this, and ENDA is an easy issue. The bill is good. Phone your Representative and tell him or her to not be a complete douche and vote YES on ENDA.

If you have a Republican Rep, phone and vent your spleen about whatever you want. Trust me, it feels great.

    Thanks for posting about this Tim.

    Couple thoughts for anyone who’s calling–

    1. This is one of the issues it really is probably worth calling Republicans on; it’s believed that some of those votes are actually gettable on this bill (though I don’t know if they’ll be relevant to a Democratic Party internal whip count).

    2. It’s not entirely clear if some of the on-the-fence reps are going to cause trouble about the transgender protections in ENDA, like happened in 2007. Even if your rep is a supporter specifically mentioning that you support “gender identity protections” when you call will probably actually make a difference to the rep’s office.
