Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

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

New McCarthy, same old McCarthyism.

How stupid are these people?

Humiliatingly small and eclipsed by the derision of millions.

Let me eat cake. The rest of you could stand to lose some weight, frankly.

Also, are you sure you want people to rate your comments?

The unpunished coup was a training exercise.

They are lying in pursuit of an agenda.

If you thought you’d already seen people saying the stupidest things possible on the internet, prepare yourselves.

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

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

Petty moves from a petty man.

Russian mouthpiece, go fuck yourself.

The Giant Orange Man Baby is having a bad day.

Fight them, without becoming them!

The real work of an opposition party is to oppose.

Following reporting rules is only for the little people, apparently.

Insiders who complain to politico: please report to the white house office of shut the fuck up.

They think we are photo bombing their nice little lives.

Too often we confuse noise with substance. too often we confuse setbacks with defeat.

“The difference between stupidity and genius is that genius has its limits.”

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

Republicans firmly believe having an abortion is a very personal, very private decision between a woman and J.D. Vance.

Let me file that under fuck it.

Go Steelers! Beat the Ravens!

Tim is actually at the game with a camera, so hopefully we will have some pictures tomorrow.

*** Update ***

10-10 at the half. I think the reason so many terrible towels are flying is a commentary on the Steelers play, whch has been less than perfect.

*** Update ***

Thank God. The call from the governor came through in time.

And that is how this game really felt- a last minute stay of execution. Steelers win a squeaker, 20-19.

    With both Lewis and Reed out we better handle these guys easy… I hate the Ravens and relish the chance to kick them while they are down.

    I need to find another team to back. Mine (the Vikings)is self-destructing so fast, I doubt they will finish out the year.

    Hrmmm . . . can a team become so bad that they cease to exist, leaving the NFL with 35 teams?

    Nawww, the Bengals are still around.
