Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

I have other things to bitch about but those will have to wait.

Sadly, media malpractice has become standard practice.

We need to vote them all out and restore sane Democratic government.

The lights are all blinking red.

Fuck the extremist election deniers. What’s money for if not for keeping them out of office?

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

It’s easier to kill a dangerous animal than a man who just happens to have different thoughts/values than one’s own.

If you still can’t see these things even now, maybe politics isn’t your forte and you should stop writing about it.

It’s not hopeless, and we’re not helpless.

In my day, never was longer.

Why is it so hard for them to condemn hate?

Second rate reporter says what?

Republicans want to make it harder to vote and easier for them to cheat.

Republicans don’t trust women.

Spilling the end game before they can coat it in frankl luntz-approved dogwhistles.

If you thought you’d already seen people saying the stupidest things possible on the internet, prepare yourselves.

They love authoritarianism, but only when they get to be the authoritarians.

“They not like us!” (that’s for sure!)

Republicans would impeach Biden if he bit into a whole Kit Kat rather than breaking the sections apart.

Republicans: slavery is when you own me. freedom is when I own you.

If you are still in the gop, you are either an extremist yourself, or in bed with those who are.

Every one of the “Roberts Six” lied to get on the court.

If you’re looking for someone who’s young and athletic, go watch a fucking movie.

Tick tock motherfuckers!

In honor of discerning film criticism, NYMag interviews the creators of Airplane!:

What do you recall of filming the “Don’t call me Shirley” gag?
Abrahams: Well, Paramount Pictures was apprehensive about three first-time directors working together on a movie.
David Zucker: Our contract said they could fire us after one week.
Abrahams: As it turned out, the “Don’t call me Shirley” scene was filmed on the first day of shooting. When Paramount Pictures watched the dailies and saw that joke and the way it played, they were relieved. They finally understood the concept and were much more comfortable dealing with us.
Jerry Zucker: We got the call and it was kind of like, “Oh, now we get it.” I think they previously said, “Okay, fine, you can have [Robert] Stack, [Lloyd] Bridges, [Leslie] Nielsen, and [Peter] Graves,” but I don’t think very many people understood what we were doing by casting these serious, straight-men actors until they saw it.
David Zucker: It was a radical concept. We were doing a comedy without comedians. I think the studio most likely green-lit it thinking this was Animal House on an airplane, and it turned out to be totally different than what they imagined.
Jerry Zucker: It’s a line that a lot of different people could have said, and it would’ve been funny — people would’ve gotten it. But I don’t think it would be remembered in the same way if it hadn’t been said the way Leslie Nielsen says it.
David Zucker: That’s a good point. We love Bill Murray and people who do comedy well, but it wouldn’t have been the same if a comedian had said that line…

Apart from homegrown MST3K jokes (Bill Murray is supposed to be a comedian, you say?), what’s on the agenda for the day?

    Tulip mania bubble meet Trump mania bubble

    1 part of his rise was nativism and racism. 2 part was “vote for me, I’m a winner”.

    he had a 20-plus point lead in NH before Iowa. It will be interesting to see how much of that will melt.

    The impromptu Chicago meet up was a success I’d say. It was good to put faces and real names with some nyms. Satby and the girls made it from Michigan, Elmo and couple others who’s in human names I remember but not their nyms. The bar was pretty empty so it was easy to meet up even though I left the green balloons on my desk.

    Of course, if you’re (somehow) right, perhaps they’ll investigate Rubio’s involvement in Benghaziii!!!!1!!2!, since he probably had almost as much as she did.

    I’ve got a ways to go yet, I know. We’ll see what the Doc says and then I’ll decide how much of that I’ll ignore. Unless there is something funky on the x-rays, I won’t be seeing him again, at least not for this. The wife is fighting a bug so she won’t be coming with, which is nice because that will open the door to some creative evasions (not my fault if she doesn’t ask the right questions) For now at least, I can begin my morning walks again, and start working up to my previous daily 2 miles.

I still needed the Ch@nt!x at the end but I think it helped.

    Heidi Cruz Hates Hicks

    “Heidi has repeatedly been complaining about how disgusting the voters and whole scene in Iowa is,” our source told Gawker. “She says everyone smokes cigarettes, eats horribly, and wants to hug and touch her all the time. She said that she has to go back to the hotel and take a shower multiple times a day due to this environment.”

    Doesn’t surprise me at all.

    I’m surprised Anne Laurie missed last night’s tweet by JJ McNab of a militiaman who posts a link to the TOS episode “The Omega Glory” unironically:

    I have always deeply appreciated the pure fact and utter veracity as to the intent, meaning and purpose of the Constitution conveyed in this episode of [Star Trek].

    The episode ends with a scene of the barbaric “Yangs” worshipping texts on an altar that they don’t understand.

    Almost none. Iowa, on the Republican side, is a stronghold of the Christian Fascists, the rest of the country more or less is Secular Fascist territory. Cruz is a Christian Fascist, Trump a Secular Fascist. Trump is going to start rockin’ and rollin’ from New Hampshire on down to Dixie. I hope to every deity high and low, real and imagined that Trump doesn’t get anywhere near the Whitehouse. But…a Secular Fascist is way better than a Christian Fascist.

    I just hope that either Clinton or Sanders can get it done when either one gets the nod. Neither one is a lock. I think Clinton is a stronger pick, but no one can say for sure.

    @David ?Canadian Anchor Baby? Koch:

    “She said that she has to go back to the hotel and take a shower multiple times a day due to this environment.”

    Heidi may have merely been referring to being around Ted. Did you see how the daughter reacts to him?

    Watching a 1959 Wyatt Earp about a bunch of Confederates infesting Dodge City. They want to ride around town shooting their guns and Marshall Earp is having none of it. “It’s Kansas 1879. Can’t you people put the war behind you?” Incredible. Terrible acting (Hugh O’Brien?) but nobody on commercial tv today would take on 2nd Amendment nuts lie this.

    RE the TrustTed Cruz “smarmy” voice — yes it is, and if you’re not primed to like him (ie. you’re not a cruel type of religionist, rightwinger or have other severe issues), you will pick up on that right away.

    @Sherparick: I’ve heard that many times from actors. And the good comic actors will tell you that you have to play a comic character straight. The character believes in him/herself.

    Having done some amateur comedy improv (where they give you the same advice) I can tell you that works. It’s amazing how much funny stuff pops out just from being true to a character. The big thing they keep telling you is not to focus on being funny or making a joke.

I’m afraid this level of magical thinking is first step towards Rethuglicanism and I’m very afraid. Also too daughter’s reaction was starting in a way.

    @Mustang Bobby: I just heard a Rubio ad on drivetime radio. If that’s how he’s going to persuade the New Hamsters, I don’t think we have anything to worry about. He was blasting Clinton and Bush for being old. Newsflash: the people who didn’t retire to Florida ARE old. And they’re not impressed with a Latino Dan Quayle.

    Trump hasn’t bought any ads that I’ve seen or heard. Public appearances are lovely, but his opponents are fully engaged in an air war. He needs to up his game. O’Malley’s slots are available, for a premium.

    HENNIKER, NH—Saying his performance in last night’s Iowa caucuses provided just the push he needed, advisors for Jeb Bush expressed their hope Tuesday that the Republican candidate has finally garnered enough momentum to end his presidential campaign. “If you look back across several weeks of polling data, you can see that Jeb is definitely starting to build a full head of steam and appears to be in an excellent position to exit the presidential race,” said campaign manager Danny Diaz, adding that Bush wasn’t just picking up speed in the early primary states but across the country as a whole, and appeared poised to retake the national spotlight by announcing the suspension of his campaign. “New Hampshire can be a significant turning point for this campaign if Jeb finishes similarly there. It feels like we could certainly keep following this trajectory and make a big move to call it quits. Let me tell you, there’s a certain energy in the Bush camp right now.” At press time, Bush’s campaign office was buzzing with dozens of staffers canceling accommodations and tour stops all across South Carolina and Nevada.

    Jesus. Trump is calling for a whole new R Iowa caucus because Cruz “cheated.” Alternatively they could nullify the results. Instead of winning he now offers whining.

  136. 136.

    Amir Khalid

    Loose cannon: Trump

    Jackhole: Cruz

    Damp Squibs of the Establishment: Bush, Christie, Graham, Gilmore, Jindal, Kasich, Pataki, Perry, Rubio, Walker

    Kooks/Wowsers: Carson, Fiorina, Huckabee, Paul, Santorum

    The kooks and wowsers are uninteresting candidates, and not really in contention. Of the DSEs, Gilmore is still in only because he’s been totally oblivious to his failure so far; Shelob won’t let Jeb quit; The Joisey Whale has too much hoodlum pride to quit so soon. The media has been bigging up Marco, and Kasich has that NYT endorsement to live up to, even though neither looks likely to catch up to the front two.

    It seems to me, if Trump fades in New Hampshire for lack of tactical/organising nous, as he seems to have done in Iowa, the Jackhole is going to be the Republican nominee.

  138. 138.

    Matt McIrvin

    Okay, at this point, I can actually see a possible mechanism for Trump losing the nomination. I can’t believe the guy is demanding nullification of the Iowa caucus because he gets 7 delegates instead of 8.

    It’s not like it matters whether he won or not. If he just does nothing, he’s going to score a crushing win in New Hampshire, and probably South Carolina too, and he can go on to romp on Super Tuesday! If he whines, he looks like a whiner. Does he not realize that?

    I feel sorry for family dragged along on campaigns, especially kids. They’re not the ones running.

    Why do they do it? Why drag the wife and kids? Couldn’t they stay home and skype with dad? Is it so the candidate looks like a family man? Because it’s obvious torture for the kids, and the wife needs multiple showers…
