Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Republican obstruction dressed up as bipartisanship. Again.

The worst democrat is better than the best republican.

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

Good lord, these people are nuts.

The willow is too close to the house.

When your entire life is steeped in white supremacy, equality feels like discrimination.

A snarling mass of vitriolic jackals

Nothing worth doing is easy.

Perhaps you mistook them for somebody who gives a damn.

Too often we confuse noise with substance. too often we confuse setbacks with defeat.

🎶 Those boots were made for mockin’ 🎵

Shallow, uninformed, and lacking identity

This fight is for everything.

Red lights blinking on democracy’s dashboard

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

Americans barely caring about Afghanistan is so last month.

When I decide to be condescending, you won’t have to dream up a fantasy about it.

This blog will pay for itself.

Bark louder, little dog.

Only Democrats have agency, apparently.

Consistently wrong since 2002

Is it irresponsible to speculate? It is irresponsible not to.

You cannot shame the shameless.

Their freedom requires your slavery.

    I’m pulling for Panama

    I guess that I, too, will be rubbing one out for Panama.

    Now no one can say that the Mexicans are not being helped to the final. Horrible horrible officiating in this game. Corruption killing the game.

    Red card was borderline but probably legitimate, although Vela should have gotten one in the 5th for elbowing a Panamanian player. The handball call was bullshit, but Mexico is going through come hell or high water.

    @Bill Murray: same story as with the CR game. A last minute penalty to give the Mexicans a win. Even the very pro mexican narration in Univision were horrified by what happened. They were calling on the Mexican player to lose the penalty on purpose for justice’s sake.

    @Randinho: lol.

    Yeah that penalty call was really terrible. Where was the bad call for the US, damn it? We didn’t deserve the win either but would have guaranteed better TV ratings.

    @Valdivia: Mexico only got to go to extra time with the penalty. If it goes to PKs I expect if Pineda makes a save for Panama he will get called for leaving his line early.

    Twitter tells me the game is actually Panama 1, the ref 1, Mexico 0

    @Bill Murray: yep, at this point I expect them to do another bad call for an extra penalty at the end so they don’t have to do the 5 penalty kicks.

    The second PK was correctly called I think, but I’d be pretty embarrassed to call it after the first one.

    Well, that was a shitshow, right down to the fat Georgia Dome security goons escorting the referee off the pitch.

    Let’s see who’s refereeing the final. The Jamaican team knows that a single goal is not enough to win against a bullshit penalty and a bent ref.
