Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

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

Yeah, with this crowd one never knows.

Is it negotiation when the other party actually wants to shoot the hostage?

Glad to see john eastman going through some things.

Hey Washington Post, “Democracy Dies in Darkness” is supposed to be a warning, not a mission statement.

Red lights blinking on democracy’s dashboard

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

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

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

This isn’t Democrats spending madly. This is government catching up.

I wonder if trump will be tried as an adult.

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

Tick tock motherfuckers!

Despite his magical powers, I don’t think Trump is thinking this through, to be honest.

When your entire life is steeped in white supremacy, equality feels like discrimination.

Take hopelessness and turn it into resilience.

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

Thanks for reminding me that Van Jones needs to be slapped.

Second rate reporter says what?

Spilling the end game before they can coat it in frankl luntz-approved dogwhistles.

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

Everyone is in a bubble, but some bubbles model reality far better than others!

They fucked up the fucking up of the fuckup!

It’s time for the GOP to dust off that post-2012 autopsy, completely ignore it, and light the party on fire again.

The only people we hate more than the Romans are the Judean People’s Front

My local teahadists think that the Tea Party Express (an astroturf faux teatard PAC) set Carl Paladino up:

Now who is the Tea Party Express? At first light they look like a good organization until you look at just some of the individuals involved in it. That is where you find out people like Republican operatives and consultants like Sal Russo: Republican Operative Transforms Into Tea Party Strategist… Yup, they have been hijacked by the Republican operatives in California. The other name is Joe Wierzbicki, he and Sal Russo share an office and have their own offices side by side, Joe runs the TP Express right beside Sal. Strictly a fund raising tool for the support of their chosen candidates.

See where I am going here? What the hell are they doing involving himself in New York politics? Word has it the Levy campaign is attempting to buy them off or has. He has been touting himself as the TEA Party candidate… I wonder why? I also wonder if these people have any clue to how corrupt this guy is. More about that at a later time.

This is just the beginning of the investigation of them all. They made a mistake coming here and bad mouthing my candidate for Governor Carl Paladino. Isn’t is a coincidence that all this crap smut came out on the same day the TP Express came into town? Seems to me it was a coordinated hit.

The only people I will affiliate myself with any longer is the Tea Party Patriots.

    The mind boggles. How could they have set him up to forward all of that offensive email in the past? Did they feed him bestiality imagery knowing that he had a preference for it? Or did they “set him up” by publicizing all of the sick shit that he didn’t want people to know about?

    Recently re-watched Life of Brian. I’d forgotten about the climactic battle scene where two competing Judean liberation organizations meet on their respective ways to kidnap Pilate’s wife and proceed to wipe each other out.

    Feel free to draw your own analogy.

    Do we really have only two Tea Parties so far? Seems like by this time we should have had a few more.

    I encourage this development.

    If any BJers are near Pleasanton, California, please do us all a favor and attend the Tea Party rally there to protest the exclusion of great American patriot Orly Taitz, who was thrown under the bus by the big Republican dogs who didn’t want to share a platform with her.

    This is clear evidence that the so-called Tea Party movement is actually a false flag for Barry Soetero’s Alinskyite Muslin agenda, and all the people with racist illiterate signs are actually ACORN members in whiteface.

    All real American patriots must stand up and shout as one:

    “Nobody puts Orly in a corner!”

    and

    “Show us your Taitz!”

    That tea party express that rolled into town on Monday was nothing more than a bizarro-world Dead show. Lots of creepy WND type merchandising, and you could buy your American flags and yellow “Don’t Tread on Me” flags on your way to the rally.

    If the three tour buses didn’t clue you in to the fact that this was hardly a grassroots movement, then the inclusion of horrible entertainment and a doughy, forgotten Victoria Jackson should have told you.

    Also, I think Rus is with the Popular Front. Not the PFJ.

    Seems pretty reasonable to me. There are people who genuinely support smaller government, and the borrow-and-spend haul-Grandma-to-Gitmo Republicans are not their friends. They’re better off not being hijacked by Republican partyarchs. It’s better for us leftists too, as principled small-government advocates can be reasoned and bargained with, unlike the current Party of Nope.

    The teahadists do wallow in their paranoia, don’t they? If it’s not evil liberals infiltrating their ranks, it’s faux-Tea Parties like Sal and Joe of the TP Express who are setting up TP candidates… to send racist emails.
    I wonder — do these people get any enjoyment out of life? Any at all? I mean, I’m barely employed right now (some freelance writing helps me out) and looking for a job. Some days I get really down, but even on my worst day, I manage to find something that makes me smile. I can’t imagine being so angry and paranoid all the time. I’d be exhausted.

    Oh my. Thinking isn’t their strongest suit, is it?

    Related: there are several pieces at boston.com worth a read regarding yesterday’s Palinite Tea Party. What really struck me about a bunch of mostly white men staring at Palin like she was their savior (or something) is that they’re all angry about spending, about taxes, etc etc, but manfully managed to hold back that anger until the majority of Americans got tax cuts.

    Is the Tea Party Express like Outlook Express?

    Just as sucky as the original, but a little less bloated? Just as sucky as the original, but with less features?

    Face it, anything that goes “(random word) Express” is going to suck unless that random word is Pony.

    And the Tea Party Express would be discrediting a Tea Party candidate because…why? By the way, I was listening to MPR yesterday over the noon hour, which is politics. Whoever was speaking (mighta been Ratface Pawlenty) was talking about the Tea Party and said that they were justified because in Washington, taxing and spending has gotten out of control. That’s when I turned it off. Anyone says that, it’s code for, “I am a political hack spouting Republican speaking points.”

    That didn’t take long (and I know the intra-tea party sniping has already been going on for months; this is just the latest). Haven’t these people moved up the average time before schism in a new political movement by about 30,000 percent? Is getting mad/blaming others the only thing they can do competently and rapidly?

    The other name is Joe Wierzbicki

    They’re just figuring this out NOW? I signed up with Move America Forward in 2005, when Al Jefe Bush could do no wrong, and warmongering was as reflexive as blinking or sneezing. Watching the emails morph and spread was like measuring the progress of a fucking tape worm in a healthy, unknowing host. The grifters have landed, and latched onto some mighty healthy veins of hate and fear. And the mightiest hydra-head of them all raked in a cool $12mil last year.

    This shit pays, and pays well. All you got to do is sell your soul, again and again and again.
