Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Everybody saw this coming.

I know this must be bad for Joe Biden, I just don’t know how.

They fucked up the fucking up of the fuckup!

“Jesus paying for the sins of everyone is an insult to those who paid for their own sins.”

Since when do we limit our critiques to things we could do better ourselves?

Just because you believe it, that doesn’t make it true.

Let us savor the impending downfall of lawless scoundrels who richly deserve the trouble barreling their way.

You don’t get rid of your umbrella while it’s still raining.

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

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

Only Democrats have agency, apparently.

Wow, you are pre-disappointed. How surprising.

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

Too often we hand the biggest microphones to the cynics and the critics who delight in declaring failure.

We’ve had enough carrots to last a lifetime. break out the sticks.

Never entrust democracy to any process that requires republicans to act in good faith.

And we’re all out of bubblegum.

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

If senate republicans had any shame, they’d die of it.

An almost top 10,000 blog!

Sadly, there is no cure for stupid.

I really should read my own blog.

Impressively dumb. Congratulations.

    Speaking of…any of you lawyers out there have experience beating down GoDaddy and their asshole affiliate, Domains by Proxy, by chance?

    Get them a cable news roundtable/variety show.

    They can be their own guest artists.

    Save on the budget, with cross over appeal. An obvious win win.

    I like the last verse where they completely summarize Republican voters:

    Save the rich
    It’s so easy to do
    Just let yourself be ignorant
    To what’s been done to you
    __
    Save the rich
    By doing nothing at all
    Deny all sense and logic
    And just think really small
    You should think really small
    Or just don’t think at all
    And save the rich

    @jl:

    What have we, as a nation, come to?

    You don’t want to know.

    The funniest thing about the video to me is the innocent look that they both have. But, yeah, they have nothing on Luke Russert or Chelsea Clinton, sadly.

    NYT is reporting that Joe Paterno transferred ownership of his house to his wife for $1 back in July.

    It’s almost as if he knew he’d be facing some claims on his assets, no?

    I’m sure it’s just a coincidence.

    Oh, jeeze.

    That is damning. Seriously bad.

    It’s like he’s attached a nuclear device to his legacy and itching to detonate the sucker.

    Oh, I misunderstood. Then you are wrong. If they are sincere and clueless, then they have a chance. I for one, welcome my new mass media news overlords, whoever they may be.

    If you haven’t done this already, call your reps and senators about these abominations:

    Summary: http://americancensorship.org/
    Details of bills:
    http://www.opencongress.org/bill/112-s968/show
    http://www.opencongress.org/bill/112-h3261/show

    It’s big content trying to kill the internet. Much worse than DMCA because it allows an entire site and its access to payment processors to be shut down without due process if someone claims any content they own is on the site anywhere, even as a link to that content in a blog comment.

    Sponsors include Wasserman-Shultz and Durbin so it’s a wonderfully bipartisan crock of shit.

    G&O always gives me cognitive dissonance because they look like the cast members from Three’s Company.
