Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Republicans seem to think life begins at the candlelight dinner the night before.

The republican caucus is already covering themselves with something, and it’s not glory.

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

I’m sure you banged some questionable people yourself.

The cruelty is the point; the law be damned.

I see no possible difficulties whatsoever with this fool-proof plan.

It’s the corruption, stupid.

It’s always darkest before the other shoe drops.

The poor and middle-class pay taxes, the rich pay accountants, the wealthy pay politicians.

Republicans don’t want a speaker to lead them; they want a hostage.

But frankly mr. cole, I’ll be happier when you get back to telling us to go fuck ourselves.

Consistently wrong since 2002

We are builders in a constant struggle with destroyers. let’s win this.

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

This really is a full service blog.

It may be funny to you motherfucker, but it’s not funny to me.

Yeah, with this crowd one never knows.

I’d try pessimism, but it probably wouldn’t work.

I’m pretty sure there’s only one Jack Smith.

Seems like a complicated subject, have you tried yelling at it?

Give the craziest people you know everything they want and hope they don’t ask for more? Great plan.

No one could have predicted…

I wonder if trump will be tried as an adult.

    It’s my birthday today, and it wasn’t as bad a day as I expected. My new dear little dog jumped up off her four feet and I could see her head bobbing up and down in the window in the door when I got home from lunch with one of my dearest friends. I’ve never had a dog who could do that and it’s one of the cutest things I’ve ever seen.  Then she did a 10 minute happy dance to greet me.  My other new dog, who must have had a horrible life before I got her, chased her tail a few times today, and rolled around in the yard and seemed like like a happy girl. She’s starting to come out of whatever hell she’s been through, and that warmed my heart. I got some really nice cookies and brooches, and gummy lobsters, the only kind of lobsters I can eat, from a dear niece. Brothers and sister called. So a nice day, all things considered. Then I got mail from AARP, a bit of a bummer, but I’ll live.

    @Juju: Happy birthday, Juju!!!

    Two new dogs and the happiest of puppy greetings, sounds like a great birthday.

    I was trying to figure out what gummy lobsters were and finally realized they are like gummy works and gummy bears.  Then they sounded a lot better!  :-)

    Thanks. Someone mentioned, when I was waiting for my dogs, that I should link to my photo site, but I don’t have one. But they are cute dogs. Ruby Jean is a terrier blend and Lulu is an unwanted former breeder golden retriever. They are both beautiful and worth the year plus it took to get them.

    @Juju: :-)  An excellent day!

    Don’t worry about the AARP thing.  A colleague in grad school got on their mailing list when he was about 25.  ;-)

    Thanks. And Happy Birthday!!

    Cheers,
    Scott.
