Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Damn right I heard that as a threat.

The lights are all blinking red.

One lie, alone, tears the fabric of reality.

Fear or fury? The choice is ours.

“Can i answer the question? No you can not!”

Technically true, but collectively nonsense

You cannot shame the shameless.

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

The truth is, these are not very bright guys, and things got out of hand.

“The defense has a certain level of trust in defendant that the government does not.”

Polls are now a reliable indicator of what corporate Republicans want us to think.

The willow is too close to the house.

The arc of the moral universe does not bend itself. it is up to us to bend it.

Shallow, uninformed, and lacking identity

She burned that motherfucker down, and I am so here for it. Thank you, Caroline Kennedy.

Jesus, Mary, & Joseph how is that election even close?

Roe is not about choice. It is about freedom.

Just because you believe it, that does not make it true.

The desire to stay informed is directly at odds with the need to not be constantly enraged.

How stupid are these people?

Mediocre white men think RFK Jr’s pathetic midlife crisis is inspirational. The bar is set so low for them, it’s subterranean.

The snowflake in chief appeared visibly frustrated when questioned by a reporter about egg prices.

Take hopelessness and turn it into resilience.

People really shouldn’t expect the government to help after they watched the GOP drown it in a bathtub.

Run for your life, Herman:

Perry is a snake. Watch him. He is creepy. And his drunken, freak show speech this past weekend belonged in a Roger Corman film.

I questioned his very bad judgment when I exposed his entire Islamic curriculum, dawah and proselytizing, to Texas school children. But this? Perry is a really bad guy. Only a lowlife (or a Democrat — Perry was Al Gore’s campaign manager) would eliminate a better man with innuendo and gossip. Men like Perry do not win on merit.

I endorse Herman Cain. What he doesn’t know, we’ll teach him.

    You know, for all the craziness we’re seeing now, we’ll likely just end up with Obama v. Romney–a very standard match-up, ideologically speaking.

    @chopper: It’s true though. The perfect Republican candidate might have ZERO knowledge – just an empty vessel to be filled by the Powers that Be. With different ingredients every day/hour based on the desired spin requirements.

    What’s she talking about? Herman Cain is already anti-Muslim and spreading fear about non-existent spread of Sharia law.

    Conspiracy theory of the day: It was RAHM!:

    The Washington Times floated a bizarre theory on Wednesday night, citing only a source “who is friends with the Cain campaign.” This highly reliable individual told the paper that former WH Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel forced a NRA employee based out of the Chicago office to leak the Cain sexual harassment story to the Perry campaign.

    Three cheers for Chicago Thugs!

    RAHM EMANUEL SHOWERED WITH HERB CAIN AND MADE HIM HARASS THOSE UNGRATEFUL PSYCHO BITCHES WHOSE PARTICULAR SITUATIONS HE EITHER CANNOT RECALL OR RECALLS IN EXCRUCIATING DETAIL BUT CANNOT DISCUSS EXCEPT FOR SAYING THAT THEY’RE ALL CRAZY BITCHES PLUS RAHM MADE HIM DO IT! ALSO RICK PERRY! ALSO TOO HERB DIDN’T DO ANYTHING WRONG BUT HE BOUGHT THE CRAZY BITCHES’ SILENCE BECAUSE HE WAS SICK OF HEARING THEM BITCH AND ALSO BECAUSE THEY WOULDN’T SEX HIM EVEN THOUGH HE IS A SUCCESSFUL BLACK WALNUT WHO LOVES TO MAKE THE SEXYTIME WITH ALL THE LADIES WHO ARE NOT CRAZY BITCHES!

    Does that about cover it?

    Great timing on the endorsement; Cain may be out of the race by Sunday (based on nothing more than the increasing number of “we have another one” that have come out in the past 24 hours).

    Wait, what? She’s accusing Perry of having a secret Islamfascist agenda?

    Nobody can be that detached from reality and still successfully operate a motor vehicle, can they?

    I could have written her first paragraph, but whoa WTF is up with “Perry’s Islamic curriculum”? I thought the wingnuts were screaming about Perry’s government needles full of retardation being forced down everyone’s throat? The wingularity closed system event horizon is distorting the field of perception and is in danger of engulfing the entire plane of reality.

    Of course it will. She’s a reich-winger, and sexual harassment is just a liberal scare story.

    Ewwww….

    You’re using Pamela Geller for quotes? While it is a decent quote withing the reichtwingnutz community, the source is of limited value unless you are part of that same reichtwingnutz community. And you aren’t.

    I do so enjoy the circular firing squad they’ve developed over there though.

    I just learned two things from this thread. Pam Geller still has the nerve to speak in public even after the massacre in Norway she inspired, and PJ media still exists.

    @Cat Lady:

    whoa WTF is up with “Perry’s Islamic curriculum”

    That just means he hasn’t fully banished Islam from Texas. In her crazy-ass world, if you aren’t saying, “I will eliminate Islam from our towns, our schools, and our society” on at least a weekly basis, then that proves you have a secret Islamofascist agenda.

    I have this feeling man, ’cause you know, it’s just a handful of people who run everything, you know … that’s true, it’s provable. It’s not … I’m not a fucking conspiracy nut, it’s provable. A handful, a very small elite, run and own these corporations, which include the mainstream media. I have this feeling that whoever is elected president, like Clinton was, no matter what you promise on the campaign trail – blah, blah, blah – when you win, you go into this smoke-filled room with the twelve industrialist capitalist scum-fucks who got you in there. And you’re in this smoky room, and this little film screen comes down … and a big guy with a cigar goes, “Roll the film.” And it’s a shot of the Kennedy assassination from an angle you’ve never seen before … that looks suspiciously like it’s from the grassy knoll. And then the screen goes up and the lights come up, and they go to the new president, “Any questions?” “Er, just what my agenda is.” “First we bomb Baghdad.” “You got it …”

    During this Halloween week in which the GOP and its media enablers have evidently decided to portray cannibals, one should not ignore this contribution from the Bowtie of Sanctimony, George Will, for his recent column, “Mitt Romney, the pretzel candidate.”

    Romney, supposedly the Republican most electable next November, is a recidivist reviser of his principles who is not only becoming less electable; he might damage GOP chances of capturing the Senate. Republican successes down the ticket will depend on the energies of the Tea Party and other conservatives, who will be deflated by a nominee whose blurry profile in caution communicates only calculated trimming.

    He plaintively entreats, “Has conservatism come so far, surmounting so many obstacles, to settle, at a moment of economic crisis, for this?”

    Yet in the column’s final paragraph, Will delivers the fatal blow: “Republicans may have found their Michael Dukakis.” (!)

    While perhaps too effete for the sensibilities of the Tea Party faithful, Will is among the most exalted of the Village Media Ministerium. Such character assassinations would seem to puncture the assumption of inevitability that the Mormon former Governor of Massachusetts will be the 2012 GOP presidential candidate.

    Is he so pissed at Obama that he wants the wekest general candidate to lose the primary? I don’t think so…

    On a completely superficial (& catty) level….after seeing several newer photos of Pam wrt this notoriety, why do I get the distinct impression she has a failing nose job? She looks like Michael Jackson, with breasts.

    @catclub: (#59)

    Thanks for alerting me to Pierce’s evisceration! Lordy, I swear I was not aware of it before posting my own comment, but it was startling to read that we both chose to highlight the very same pungent remarks from Will’s pitiful lament.

    @phoebes-in-santa fe: You can get around that. Many of my old NY friends who are very Jewish claim Pam isn’t. Oh sure, she is a Jewish American Princess, but not a practicing observant Jew. They think she learned the Nazi lessons a little too well. I agree with them & thank god they’re saying it because being non-jewish I really can’t say that.

    @PeakVT: Rick Perry gets around! The Islamofacists must have given him some serious change, because you can’t buy Rick Perry with a measly 5 grand (just ask him).
