Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Marge, god is saying you’re stupid.

Oh FFS you might as well trust a 6-year-old with a flamethrower.

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

They love authoritarianism, but only when they get to be the authoritarians.

Whoever he was, that guy was nuts.

The worst democrat is better than the best republican.

Keep the Immigrants and deport the fascists!

Of course you can have champagne before noon. That’s why orange juice was invented.

“Loving your country does not mean lying about its history.”

My right to basic bodily autonomy is not on the table. that’s the new deal.

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

When I was faster i was always behind.

The snowflake in chief appeared visibly frustrated when questioned by a reporter about egg prices.

Everything is totally normal and fine!!!

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

Every decision we make has lots of baggage with it, known or unknown.

75% of people clapping liked the show!

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

Let’s delete this post and never speak of this again.

All hail the time of the bunny!

It’s all just conspiracy shit beamed down from the mothership.

Jeralynn points to this piece listing who of prominent Democrats, Republicans, and journalists has military service, and then urges us to view this ‘astute analysis’ from Markos “Screw ’em” Moulitsas:

Look at the military records of prominent Democrat politicans and their Republican counterparts. It’s not even close. In fact, the entire Republican leadership has either not served, or went AWOL playing pool volleyball with ambitious secretaries. It’s no accident that Lindsey Graham of SC (who did serve) was one of the harshest Republican critics of the Abu Ghraib scandal…

Finally, yet another publication gets my last name wrong (it’s Moulitsas — always address a Latino by the first surname, not the second). But I don’t mind a reminder to the world that I’ve actually served my country and wore combat boots. Unlike the vast majority of the chickenshit war-cheerleading wingers.

Astute, indeed- if you think Michael Moore is a deep thinker.

My question- If Florida had not been so disputed in the last election, would Democrats be this bitter and obnoxious?

*** Update ***

Regarding Kos and those who ‘served’:

Look, I would rather talk about the war. The current one, I mean

    Did he read the same list?

    Clinton entire foreign policy team – no military service

    Bush’s foreign policy team – 50% had military service

    Same here Marble,

    Former Marine, 0331 as a matter of fact. I’ve worn combat boots lugging a M60E3 machine gun all over, but I guess that just makes me a ckickenhawk.

    Personally, I’ll cut kos some slack….when I was his size (back when I was 11) I had a smart mouth, as well.

    However, I can’t wait to watch those folks begin spinning Hillary on the first Wednesday in November.

    When a mere child, I distinctly recall another child being ecstatic that someone with whom he didn’t agree had been the victim of an assassination attempt. Said other child was a “liberal.” So, there’s always been that element. At the same time, I wouldn’t attempt to claim that Daily “aljazeerah.info is the al Jazeera” Kos reflects more than, oh, 50 or 60% of Democrats.
