Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

When we show up, we win.

The gop couldn’t organize an orgy in a whorehouse with a fist full of 50s.

The lights are all blinking red.

There is no compromise when it comes to body autonomy. You either have it or you don’t.

Don’t expect peaches from an apple tree.

This really is a full service blog.

When someone says they “love freedom”, rest assured they don’t mean yours.

If you still can’t see these things even now, maybe politics isn’t your forte and you should stop writing about it.

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

Republicans can’t even be trusted with their own money.

Hot air and ill-informed banter

I have other things to bitch about but those will have to wait.

fuckem (in honor of the late great efgoldman)

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

Yeah, with this crowd one never knows.

Stamping your little feets and demanding that they see how important you are? Not working anymore.

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

The party of Reagan has become the party of Putin.

I was promised a recession.

Marge, god is saying you’re stupid.

The words do not have to be perfect.

Let there be snark.

There’s always a light at the end of the frog.

Our job is not to persuade republicans but to defeat them.

After banning earmarks and solving the deficit, Republicans in the House are going to ban symbolic resolutions, which by itself will lower the unemployment rate by at least a couple of percentage points.

(Via Ezra Klein, who is wrong about these resolutions – they don’t make any difference in the House, which is a pretty streamlined operation compared to the tea cooling saucer/constipated old lady that is your United States Senate.)

    I think you mean “constipated old *man* because there are very few women in the Senate, and I’m sure you didn’t intend to use “old lady” as a perjorative, right?

    The House wingnuts just want to free up more floor time to repeal HCR and impeach Obama. Only two years before 2012 and the self righteous got to make hay while the sun shines

    It will be interesting to see which symbolic resolutions they actually intend to ban. Somehow, I get the feeling that resolutions honoring America is a Christian Nation Week or resolutions honoring Kiss Your Bible Day will still be just fine.

    @Suck It Up!:

    Can the House alone do that?

    Sure, but it would put them out of sync with dems controlling the senate. Wingnuts hate paygo because it stiffles their mindless irresponsible efforts to cut taxes, especially for the rich. And for the time being, as far as they are concerned, the House of Reps is not in for doing anything resembling cooperation with the Senate or the Executive branch. They will be the right wing monkey wrench gang, period.

    But in ancient Rome, a Senate resolution could remove a soul from hell and make it a deity … maybe the thugs are going to solve the deficit by letting the wallstreet bankers become God’s (after putting $ in the greedy M-fer’s campaign fund – these fuckers sell the country out on the cheap) by house resolutions – a similar scam kinda worked for the medieval church for a long time.
