Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Russian mouthpiece, go fuck yourself.

Radicalized white males who support Trump are pitching a tent in the abyss.

If rights aren’t universal, they are privilege, not rights.

So many bastards, so little time.

Every reporter and pundit should have to declare if they ever vacationed with a billionaire.

In my day, never was longer.

’Where will you hide, Roberts, the laws all being flat?’

You cannot shame the shameless.

This isn’t Democrats spending madly. This is government catching up.

The fundamental promise of conservatism all over the world is a return to an idealized past that never existed.

Our messy unity will be our strength.

An almost top 10,000 blog!

These are not very smart people, and things got out of hand.

When they say they are pro-life, they do not mean yours.

“Until such time as the world ends, we will act as though it intends to spin on.”

Wow, I can’t imagine what it was like to comment in morse code.

When we show up, we win.

Nancy smash is sick of your bullshit.

GOP baffled that ‘we don’t care if you die’ is not a winning slogan.

The willow is too close to the house.

Giving up is unforgivable.

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

You cannot love your country only when you win.

Conservatism: there are people the law protects but does not bind and others who the law binds but does not protect.

Let’s go Pens

The Penguins got lucky on Monday night. They looked like crap except for a ten minute flurry in the first period which gave them enough of a cushion to survive playing lazy defense against a team that was jumping on the counter-attack.

So now that they stole a game that they really should not win, let’s see cheer them on tonight as they try to reduce their magic number to two.

    @JPL: I lived closer than John to PPG Arena for 18 years so this was my own free will. I have posts already scheduled for games 3&4

    Yossi cross-checks a Penguin four times in a row, finally gets called, and chips his teeth at the official on his way to the box. Maybe these guys would rather be playing one of those games at the end of Rollerball.

    @geg6: IK,R? Guys are beating the shit out of each other with their sticks right in front of the officials.

    Pens break the tie in first 10 seconds of third period. Guentzel again.

    Grew up in Pittsburgh (though first years in MA so I don’t have the distinctive, much mocked and mostly exaggerated accent). Anyway, a lifelong Pirates, Steelers and Pens fan. Hell, I was even a Pittsburgh Rens fan in the crazy Civic Arena (Rens=Renaissance as in the city’s modern motto) . Haven’t lived in the city for many years (but periodically visit) so am watching this with interest (especially since the rest of my family car Caps fans as I live in the MD suburbs of DC).

    OK now that the Pens are up two games will the commentators stop calling them the lesser team?
