Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Second rate reporter says what?

Anyone who bans teaching American history has no right to shape America’s future.

Usually wrong but never in doubt

And we’re all out of bubblegum.

“Everybody’s entitled to be an idiot.”

Red lights blinking on democracy’s dashboard

Teach a man to fish, and he’ll sit in a boat all day drinking beer.

They’re not red states to be hated; they are voter suppression states to be fixed.

Nothing worth doing is easy.

We cannot abandon the truth and remain a free nation.

Republicans do not pay their debts.

Meanwhile over at truth Social, the former president is busy confessing to crimes.

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

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

Make the republican party small enough to drown in a bathtub.

Hot air and ill-informed banter

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

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

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

Too often we confuse noise with substance. too often we confuse setbacks with defeat.

… pundit janitors mopping up after the GOP

Come on, man.

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

Do not shrug your shoulders and accept the normalization of untruths.

    As I posted on the previous thread, from the GOS

    There were few surprises in the voting. Republicans voting yes were Collins, Graham, Gregg, Lugar, and Snowe. Ben Nelson voted no. She was confirmed with a larger margin than Alito, who was confirmed 58 to 42, and Thomas, who was confirmed 52 to 48, but with fewer votes than the remaining justices, a reflection of the heightened and toxic political environment this election year.

    With all the previous Republican SC appointees, I doubt that she is the first on who is gay…

    Kagan won’t even be the first gay Justice on the current court, if the rumors about John Roberts are correct.

    @Anne Laurie:

    if the rumors about John Roberts are correct.

    See, this is why it’s always a mistake to skip BJ. I’d never have even heard that rumor but for this thread. Never have gotten turned on to the Discworld novels, but that’s something else again.

    well, great even if you aren’t gay but see no reason to deny people basic human rights.

    also, now that she is confirmed, can we stop hearing speculation about her sex life? please?

    I think the Whitehouse machine (the Regime as Limbaugh calls it) failed in its story line with this. Instead of saying “she’s not gay” as if it was a bad thing. They should have said “we have not discussed Ms. Kagan’s sexual orientation as it completely irrelevant to her ability to serve on SCOTUS, we nominated her because of her legal knowledge not her social life” or some such thing. I was a tad disappointed that they just knee jerked the “no she isn’t” bullshit as if it would make the slightest bit of difference if she was.
