Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

The cruelty is the point; the law be damned.

Republican speaker of the house Mike Johnson is the bland and smiling face of evil.

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

Bark louder, little dog.

It’s easy to sit in safety and prescribe what other people should be doing.

This blog will pay for itself.

People are complicated. Love is not.

We still have time to mess this up!

The current Supreme Court is a dangerous, rogue court.

“When somebody takes the time to draw up a playbook, they’re gonna use it.”

Michigan is a great lesson for Dems everywhere: when you have power…use it!

A tremendous foreign policy asset… to all of our adversaries.

They punch you in the face and then start crying because their fist hurts.

The gop is a fucking disgrace.

Good lord, these people are nuts.

Giving in to doom is how we fail to fight for ourselves & one another.

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

No one could have predicted…

White supremacy is terrorism.

This has so much WTF written all over it that it is hard to comprehend.

Balloon Juice, where there is always someone who will say you’re doing it wrong.

The unpunished coup was a training exercise.

This fight is for everything.

We May Have Been Dranking

This post is in: 

It’s Saint Patrick’s Day and we may have been drinking scotch, but that doesn’t mean we’re not still reasonable. Even intoxicated we make more sense then these guys:

Because white genocide is obviously something to be worried about, right white people?

On today’s TWiBPrime, we also discussed the KKK’s image overhaul, Mississippi’s new law requiring welfare recipients to take a drug test in order to get their benefits, and why sometimes, you just get tired of fighting.

    Also, the only white genocide those guys should worry about is some driver deciding to take them out whilst standing along the side of the road.

    And was that Roy Orbison in the background of the pic at the link?

    I’m sure I’ll be whizzing my pants just like these guys as soon as I come across someone who’d actually genocide my white ass. I’ll make sure to let them know when that happens. Tell them to hold their breaths in the meantime.

    There are a couple of white guys in robes — one blue, one white — and matching pointy hats. What does the attire signify? And what is that red-and-white flag one of them is waving?

    I would think it goes without saying, that when you’re talking about ‘celebrating our white heritage’, it would be a good idea not to have guys in robes and hoods standing alongside the road.

    IIRC, when they say “genocide” they generally mean “miscegenation,” i.e. too many white people are having babies with too many not-white people and OMG there will be no blondes left by 2050! (or whatever the new whitapocalypse date is, I’ve lost track).

    Of course, my cousin-in-law and his wife, who are a wonderfully varied mix of black, white, and Latino (and both natural brunettes), somehow managed to produce a blue-eyed, blond son, so nobody really knows WTF will happen when human genes line up to do their do-si-do and produce a new human.

    I think ruemara said below that one of her siblings popped out a blond, too, and the nurses were reluctant to hand him over to his (black) mother since she couldn’t possibly be the mother of a blond baby boy. Genes are wackier than anyone is willing to admit.

    a tough weekend for our Al Qaeda allies. However, even though they lost the town of Yarbrud, but they made up for it by setting of another car bomb in Lebanon. I’m sure Secretary Kerry will stand firm and make sure the flow of weapons and money to Al Qaeda keeps on keeping on.

    be steadfast, Al Qaeda, America, Saudi Arabia, UAE, and Israel stand with you in your valiant struggle against the godless secularists in Syria.

    Can we introduce the Klansmen to some good old-fashioned genocide like everyone in your neck of the woods is going to be commemorating on April 24? I don’t normally favor that kind of thing, but I’m willing to make a special exception in their case.

    I guess George Zimmerman’s Latino again today, then. I can never keep straight whether he’s being tarred as white by The Liberal Establishment to encourage resentment by black people, or a True White Patriot being tarred as Jewish, or what.

    White traditions? White culture? What the hell do you think these yammering idjits would name as a “white tradition”? Probably Christmas or some such…

    And when the hell did the Irish become white? They’re Roman Catholics, like the French! They don’t count!

    If your goal is to be thorough you sure as hell do. The Nazis were very big on coming up with lists of the people they were going to genocide, and it would be hard to find better experts on the matter.

    @Poopyman: Some genocides are tidier than others. White genocides probably involve a lot of bleach, possibly some of those antistatic sheets as well, some softener during earlier cycles . . . I wouldn’t at all be surprised to find a list is involved.

    The genocide thing is based off the nasty history of groups that were treated as second class and violently oppressed, engaging in the same when they gain more political power than the group that was oppressing them. That goes back as far back as humans go, and is still at play in areas like the middle east. However it’s not really a worry in modern western societies where there are protections put in place to stop it from happening.

    It’s part based on an acceptance of the horrible history of humans in general, and part a “hey if we were willing to fuck them over when we had a chance of course they are going to fuck us over when they get a chance”. The press can always gin up one or two idiots totally willing to advocate this as well.

    Though the people worrying about it tend to be abusive and full of hatred on their own.

    @Mike with a Mic: It’s not just oppression, it’s dehumanizing humans and groups. Now latinos are shot coming over the border and only a few care because as a society they have dehumanized. Paul Ryan tried but failed or hopefully failed with his inner city comment. In his view if folks starve to death, it’s their fault cuz….

    I think its a bit worse than that. The few ‘white genocide’ people I’ve had the misfortune to interact with would pretty clearly have been leading the pack in black or latino genocide if they thought they could get away with it. These are people that believe not only that genocide is a suitable solution to a problem, but that others agree and are only waiting to gain control of the government to unleash it against whites. There’s no abstract acknowledgement of ‘other groups’ committing this crime, they seek to commit it themselves.

    The Irish are entirely fictional. They were created by the famous Scottish author, Mungo MacDuff, writing under the pen name “James Joyce”.

    @Mike in NC: There have been a number of new Irish distillers pop up over the past few years. (Note: Not Irish Distillers, the owners of Jamesons.) I was happy to find this out last fall when the local wine shop slipped a few Irish brands in during a scotch sampling evening. Jura is pretty good, but my fave (as mentioned in Comment #2) is 14 y.o. Knappogue Castle.

    If your idea of Irish whiskey is Jamesons or Bushmills, I’m not surprised about the nightmares.

    No, the non-white population has grown enough that the bubba vote is no longer a king-maker. Mitt Romney won the same percentage of the white vote as Poppy Bush in 1988. Poppy won a landslide, Mitt got thumped.
