Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

I am pretty sure these ‘journalists’ were not always such a bootlicking sycophants.

Let’s bury these fuckers at the polls 2 years from now.

Hell hath no fury like a farmer bankrupted.

When your entire life is steeped in white supremacy, equality feels like discrimination.

I’m starting to think Jesus may have made a mistake saving people with no questions asked.

If you still can’t see these things even now, maybe politics isn’t your forte and you should stop writing about it.

Their freedom requires your slavery.

Just because you believe it, that does not make it true.

Live so that if you miss a day of work people aren’t hoping you’re dead.

That meeting sounds like a shotgun wedding between a shitshow and a clusterfuck.

“Just close your eyes and kiss the girl and go where the tilt-a-whirl takes you.” ~OzarkHillbilly

Not rolling over. fuck you, make me.

People really shouldn’t expect the government to help after they watched the GOP drown it in a bathtub.

Bark louder, little dog.

Come on, media. you have one job. start doing it.

You know he’s going to shit a cat.

That’s my take and I am available for criticism at this time.

Hi god, it’s us. Thanks a heap, you’re having a great week and it’s only Thursday!

The low info voters probably won’t even notice or remember by their next lap around the goldfish bowl.

We do not need to pander to people who do not like what we stand for.

Beware of advice from anyone for whom Democrats are “they” and not “we.”

If you cannot answer whether trump lost the 2020 election, you are unfit for office.

This is dead girl, live boy, a goat, two wetsuits and a dildo territory.  oh, and pink furry handcuffs.

Republicans: The threats are dire, but my tickets are non-refundable!

This Has to Be Killing the French

I bet they just hate this:
Shaking off a crash that left him lying on the road, Lance Armstrong the dominator reappeared in the Tour de France today, winning the major stage in the Pyrenees, significantly widening his overall lead and taking a big step toward his fifth consecutive victory.

After he hit a spectator and went down early on the last of six climbs, he told himself, he said later,”Lance, if you want to win the Tour, attack.”

Damn simplistic Americans. Always attacking. And he’s a Texan to boot. Maybe we should have the Belgians charge him with Human Rights Violations.

    Do the French cyclists imagine there’s a battle behind them?

    I don’t know if it’s like this every year, but hasn’t the Tour de France looked a little like a hockey game this year?

    Every couple of days, someone’s putting a hit on Lance, and he just gets back on his skates, er, bike.
