Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

You cannot shame the shameless.

“What are Republicans afraid of?” Everything.

When I decide to be condescending, you won’t have to dream up a fantasy about it.

We still have time to mess this up!

Radicalized white males who support Trump are pitching a tent in the abyss.

There is no right way to do the wrong thing.

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

Shut up, hissy kitty!

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

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

The lights are all blinking red.

Authoritarian republicans are opposed to freedom for the rest of us.

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

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

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

They were going to turn on one another at some point. It was inevitable.

We’re watching the self-immolation of the leading world power on a level unprecedented in human history.

Narcissists are always shocked to discover other people have agency.

In my day, never was longer.

Incompetence, fear, or corruption? why not all three?

Dear elected officials: Trump is temporary, dishonor is forever.

One of our two political parties is a cult whose leader admires Vladimir Putin.

    Justin O:

    That’s illogical. The Red Sox curse being broken would suggest that streaks *end*. That is more likely, it would seem, to support the idea that the Redskins’ loss loses its impact, rather than that the Redskins’ loss remains intact.

    Or am I taking prognostications and nostrums too seriously?

    If this is about the transcript posted above – Matthews knows that Stein is completely out of his league and so stayed on the fringes of an actual argument.

    I wouldn’t call it clock cleaning as much as Matthews knowing his place. It

    I agree with Dorian. After the crap Matthews pulled with Malkin and Miller he has possbily gottent he word that a lot of people would be perfectly happy to see him humiliated on live TV. So he’s walking lightly around those equipped to do it.
