Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Nothing worth doing is easy.

Optimism opens the door to great things.

The worst democrat is better than the best republican.

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

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

No offense, but this thread hasn’t been about you for quite a while.

Not all heroes wear capes.

My years-long effort to drive family and friends away has really paid off this year.

Black Jesus loves a paper trail.

Sitting here in limbo waiting for the dice to roll

if you can’t see it, then you are useless in the fight to stop it.

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

It’s the corruption, stupid.

Hot air and ill-informed banter

Infrastructure week. at last.

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

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

People are complicated. Love is not.

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

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

Historically it was a little unusual for the president to be an incoherent babbling moron.

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

This really is a full service blog.

Americans barely caring about Afghanistan is so last month.

Well dears, the convention is over. I had intended to write so many posts keeping you up to date on what was what, but what with this and that, and that and this, I somehow could not find the time. I’m writing you a long post with all of my adventures, from the minor Paulite revolution I fomented to the rather odd orgy I ended up at in the Bachmann’s suite. It was remarkably like the video above.

I blame grindr. More on all that later.

In the meantime, I note that I also omitted to follow up on my thread to find the best personal ad from the convention. I checked on my gays every day and, frankly, I was a little disappointed. The boys of Tampa just didn’t seem to be putting in much effort to snare some Republican arse, and the Republican Youth seemed to be keeping it indoors at the convention. I popped into one toilet at the Times Forum and all the lightbulbs had been removed. Thankfully I had my little torch. I’ve never seen so many lily white white arses moving quite so quickly before.

Anyway, aside from the Gay Joe Cool that JGabriel found, the only ad that really made me laugh was this one:

Much love. Have a drink on me. I’ll be back to you once I’ve managed to get Michele Bachman out of my closet so I can check out and get on my plane out of this shithole.

    I hope you made sure they all doubled bagged it. so many unpleasant viruses circulate at republican gatherings (and that’s only the politicians!)

    There should be a song*. And, of course, now that I look for it on YouTube, I find that there is:

    I know it sounds weird
    But babe if you need me
    I’ll be your beard

    Going back to the ad — Why? Why does she want to beard gay Republicans? For the drinks? Blackmail opportunities? Blogging material? Despite my better angels, I find myself kind of hoping for the latter.

    I will be your beard, your lady
    I can hide away the gay
    I will tell them you’re so manly
    Cash, credit, or debit today?

    Kittehs to the rescue

    @JoyfulA: Yes, I can read the title, but I bet the text of the ad itself is also quite relevant/funny.

    If Cole can post huge pics of his critters, surely the other posters can manage to post legible screenshots.
