Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Let’s not be the monsters we hate.

Why did Dr. Oz lose? well, according to the exit polls, it’s because Fetterman won.

Infrastructure week. at last.

Battle won, war still ongoing.

Let us savor the impending downfall of lawless scoundrels who richly deserve the trouble barreling their way.

The worst democrat is better than the best republican.

This blog will pay for itself.

Eh, that’s media spin. biden’s health is fine and he’s doing a good job.

Within six months Twitter will be fully self-driving.

They traffic in fear. it is their only currency. if we are fearful, they are winning.

Since when do we limit our critiques to things we could do better ourselves?

Just because you believe it, that doesn’t make it true.

Speaking of republicans, is there a way for a political party to declare intellectual bankruptcy?

Anyone who bans teaching American history has no right to shape America’s future.

The GOP couldn’t organize an orgy in a whorehouse with a fist full of 50s.

JFC, are there no editors left at that goddamn rag?

Not all heroes wear capes.

Some judge needs to shut this circus down soon.

A democracy can’t function when people can’t distinguish facts from lies.

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

Bark louder, little dog.

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

The party of Reagan has become the party of Putin.

A Senator Walker would also be an insult to reason, rationality, and decency.

    Good morning folks. Polls open here in MO in about an hour & fifteen minutes. I am waking up and getting ready to head to my assigned spot to be a volunteer voter protection person. Hoping at least half the people & issues I am supporting prevail! And that it doesn’t rain too much.

    Everyone have a lovely day.

    And good luck to the Dem in the OH-12 special.

    @OzarkHillbilly: So while you are voting today enjoy the fact that Greitens cannot. According to the Post Dispatch he never updated his voting address after moving out of the Governor’s mansion so it would be illegal for him to try to vote today!

    And BillinGlendaleCA what are you doing awake?

    A short while ago, Twitler ended a tweet about the Iran sanctions with: “I am asking for WORLD PEACE, nothing less!”

    Christ on a pony.

    In other news, I keep finding chewed stuffing from SOMETHING strewn about the house, but I can’t locate the source. Badger will be in big fucking trouble when I do, even though he only wants world peace.

    @satby: Baby Doc’s entire political career is a nepotism-fueled fraud. There’s no daylight between Rand Paul and Mitch McConnell when crunch time comes.

    @Betty Cracker:

    Check the underside of tall pieces of stuffed furniture, like a chair. He could be digging out something there.

    Commenters, your patience please. The WordPress update changed how comments are treated and I found out the issue last night. I found the solution this morning and will have the fix live once a bit more caffeine kicks in and the hot pad loosens my back up. Sorry for the issue, as I am usually logged in, I didn’t realize it was there until enough complaints yesterday.

    Also, there’s now a link to report site issues and to report bad ads, in the sidebar.

    Check the underside of any furniture he can crawl under — couch, box springs, etc. Puppies can be crafty!

    And not just puppies: A friend couldn’t figure out how her dog could’ve found an electrical wire to chew, thereby doing great damage to his gums, since she’d examined every cord in the house without finding any teethmarks. Months later, she had to move some boxes in her bedroom… and discovered the dumb fvcker had wriggled behind them, popped open an access panel, and chewed on the wiring behind it. Never mind electrocuting himself, it was a miracle he didn’t set the house on fire.

    Later, during an obedience class, I mentioned that to a periodontist who was also waiting for his dog’s turn to perform. “Oh, human babies do that too,” he said calmly, “they get a tingle in their gums, and some kids find it addicting. Repairing their gums paid for my kids’ college educations…. “

    Source of Badger’s masticated stuffing deposits discovered! As part of our remodeling project to turn the kiddo’s old room into a nano-brewery/zen parlor, we’re ripping out the old carpet. Badger found an ragged edge of a portion of the carpet that is slated for removal and chewed up the padding beneath it. I’m just glad it wasn’t the underside of the sofa.

    The slide out ads are the worst, and I think deliberately formatted so that the x to close them doesn’t work until the ad is over anyway. With all the inadvertent clicks I’ve given them I hope the blog coffers have at least increased.

    So every thing Rand Paul says and does in Russia, someone is watching and listening, right? I mean, isn’t that his real value to them?
