Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

When tyranny becomes law, rebellion becomes duty. ~Thomas Jefferson

Giving in to doom is how we fail to fight for ourselves & one another.

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

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

The current Supreme Court is a dangerous, rogue court.

Black Jesus loves a paper trail.

We’ve had enough carrots to last a lifetime. break out the sticks.

Republicans: slavery is when you own me. freedom is when I own you.

A tremendous foreign policy asset… to all of our adversaries.

Take hopelessness and turn it into resilience.

We will not go quietly into the night; we will not vanish without a fight.

Tick tock motherfuckers!

I’ve spoken to my cat about this, but it doesn’t seem to do any good.

“Jesus paying for the sins of everyone is an insult to those who paid for their own sins.”

To the privileged, equality seems like oppression.

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

Everybody saw this coming.

Your help is being requested:

A research team from the Psychology Department at New York University, headed by Professor Yaacov Trope and supported by the National Science Foundation, is investigating the cognitive causes of voting behavior, political preferences, and candidate evaluations throughout the course of the 2008 U.S. Presidential election. This stage of the study focuses on the information people use to inform evaluations in the days immediately preceding the election. They seek respondents of all political leanings from all over the country (and from the rest of the world) to complete a 15-minute questionnaire, the responses to which will be completely anonymous. All respondents are entered into periodic random drawings for prizes of $100. Respondents will also receive detailed information about the research findings after data collection is completed.

The survey is here.

Totally unrelated, but the Princeton University Press has a new blog.
