Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Petty moves from a petty man.

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

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

The media handbook says “controversial” is the most negative description that can be used for a Republican.

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

Today’s gop: why go just far enough when too far is right there?

Tick tock motherfuckers!

Yeah, with this crowd one never knows.

Republicans are radicals, not conservatives.

We are aware of all internet traditions.

One lie, alone, tears the fabric of reality.

Shallow, uninformed, and lacking identity

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

Seems like a complicated subject, have you tried yelling at it?

In after Baud. Damn.

I’d like to think you all would remain faithful to me if i ever tried to have some of you killed.

’Where will you hide, Roberts, the laws all being flat?’

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

Roe is not about choice. It is about freedom.

If rights aren’t universal, they are privilege, not rights.

Black Jesus loves a paper trail.

These days, even the boring Republicans are nuts.

Fundamental belief of white supremacy: white people are presumed innocent, minorities are presumed guilty.

The Supreme Court cannot be allowed to become the ultimate, unaccountable arbiter of everything.

Michele’s Questions

by | 3 Comments

This post is in: 

Michele wants some answers to some basic questions:

1. If you were a tree, what kind of dog would piss on you?

Who cares? I just wish the birds would stop crapping on me.

2. Do these pants make my ass look fat?

Why don’t you take them off so I can compare?

3. What’s your stance on sporks?

I prefer to stir my vodka tonics with a straw, but in a pinch a spork will do.

4. You’re the presidential candidate for a viable third political party. What’s it called and who’s your running mate?

“I’ll be honest- We are going to lie to you” and my veep would be PJ O’Rourke.

5. Why do birds suddenly appear?

To eat the worms that fattened up on Karen Carpenter.
