Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Russian mouthpiece, go fuck yourself.

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

No one could have predicted…

rich, arrogant assholes who equate luck with genius

“Squeaker” McCarthy

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

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

Whoever he was, that guy was nuts.

We cannot abandon the truth and remain a free nation.

Only Democrats have agency, apparently.

I’d hate to be the candidate who lost to this guy.

Balloon Juice has never been a refuge for the linguistically delicate.

No offense, but this thread hasn’t been about you for quite a while.

If senate republicans had any shame, they’d die of it.

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

Putting aside our relentless self-interest because the moral imperative is crystal clear.

Not all heroes wear capes.

Republicans are the party of chaos and catastrophe.

… riddled with inexplicable and elementary errors of law and fact

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

Perhaps you mistook them for somebody who gives a damn.

This year has been the longest three days of putin’s life.

So it was an October Surprise A Day, like an Advent calendar but for crime.

Wow, you are pre-disappointed. How surprising.

    Thanks, I don’t have any questions – an excellent post!

    I am an Army civilian, never in uniform, so I look forward to learning from Leto and Avalune.

    I have WW1 and WW2 stories from my grandfather and father, but nothing more recent.

    Just got here to old thread. Don’t have time to read threads before comment. We just lost my Vietnam vet BIL  in January, That war changed his life. I won’t say ruined, because he was very impressive afterwards. But it did damage him.
