Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

If you tweet it in all caps, that makes it true!

Motto for the House: Flip 5 and lose none.

Whatever happens next week, the fight doesn’t end.

The “burn-it-down” people are good with that until they become part of the kindling.

Dear elected officials: Trump is temporary, dishonor is forever.

The next time the wall street journal editorial board speaks the truth will be the first.

One of our two political parties is a cult whose leader admires Vladimir Putin.

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

When someone says they “love freedom”, rest assured they don’t mean yours.

We’re watching the self-immolation of the leading world power on a level unprecedented in human history.

We can’t confuse what’s necessary to win elections with the policies that we want to implement when we do.

In my day, never was longer.

They are lying in pursuit of an agenda.

I like political parties that aren’t owned by foreign adversaries.

Not rolling over. fuck you, make me.

Today in our ongoing national embarrassment…

He really is that stupid.

The real work of an opposition party is to hold the people in power accountable.

White supremacy is terrorism.

There are some who say that there are too many strawmen arguments on this blog.

People identifying as christian while ignoring christ and his teachings is a strange thing indeed.

Tick tock motherfuckers!

Let the trolls come, and then ignore them. that’s the worst thing you can do to a troll.

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

Alain asked me to schedule a post for him. He has asked me to inform you all that he is experiencing technical issues and, as a result, today’s On the Road post will not be happening as normally scheduled. Please consider this an open thread while he waits for someone at tech support to answer his ticket/request.

Open thread!

    @Waratah:

    We stayed at Silky Oaks Lodge, about a half dozen kilometers north of Mossman for that segment of the trip. It was fantastic. We’d rented a car at Cairns and drove north, adventures all about (there was only some shouting about my driving wrong side of the car, wrong side of the road).

    Took all sorts of little side trips – went as far north as you could go with a serious 4WD, saw cane toad races in Port Douglas…

    When I was a boy growing up in Alabama, in the mid-fifties, when there was one of the frequent interruptions in transmission of a program, one network had a great crude line drawing they put up of a a squirrel chomping thru a big cable. I sill remember that drawing. I wish I could find it. I have searched the Internet more than once hoping someone had a copy and had put it on the Web, but to no avail.

    Ah. What innocent days those were, compared to where we are now.

    @HeartlandLiberal: I’ve seen Steeplejack find some amazing things that others weren’t able to find. You might think of asking him about it sometime. The Google Fu is strong in that one.
