Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

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

Let there be snark.

Compromise? There is no middle ground between a firefighter and an arsonist.

He seems like a smart guy, but JFC, what a dick!

The desire to stay informed is directly at odds with the need to not be constantly enraged.

Relentless negativity is not a sign that you are more realistic.

When we show up, we win.

America is going up in flames. The NYTimes fawns over MAGA celebrities. No longer a real newspaper.

Polls are now a reliable indicator of what corporate Republicans want us to think.

This has so much WTF written all over it that it is hard to comprehend.

The next time the wall street journal editorial board speaks the truth will be the first.

Welcome to day five of every-bit-as-bad-as-you-thought-it-would-be.

The willow is too close to the house.

Take hopelessness and turn it into resilience.

You are either for trump or for democracy. Pick one.

You come for women, you’re gonna get your ass kicked.

This chaos was totally avoidable.

Baby steps, because the Republican Party is full of angry babies.

“woke” is the new caravan.

Bad people in a position to do bad things will do bad things because they are bad people. End of story.

They don’t have outfits that big. nor codpieces that small.

Michigan is a great lesson for Dems everywhere: when you have power…use it!

Quote tweet friends, screenshot enemies.

Not so fun when the rabbit gets the gun, is it?

Shocking

I am absolutely shocked. It appears that legislation attempting to suppress free speech violates the 1st amendment. Who woulda thunk it:

A federal court Friday struck down most of a ban on the use of large corporate and union political contributions by political parties, casting into doubt the future of the campaign finance law that was supposed to govern next year’s high-stakes presidential election.

The court also ruled unconstitutional new restrictions on election-time political ads by special interest groups and others. It barred the federal government from enforcing them and all other parts of the law it struck down.

Just a big fat in your face and I told you so to every moron who was in favor of this hideous legislation. I am still pissed at Bush for cynically signing it.

Sorry for the lack of posting, but I have had little to say and was taking a break. However, you need to make sure you read Krauthammer’s take on the Iraq Sanctions:

But if the State Department sentimentalists who worship at the shrine of the United Nations insist on a pilgrimage to Turtle Bay, we should go to the Security Council and submit a one-line resolution: “Whereas the sanctions were imposed on the regime of Saddam Hussein; whereas that regime is no more; whereas sanctions are now needlessly preventing Iraq’s economic recovery; the sanctions are hereby abolished.”

No “modalities.” No negotiations. No deals. Dare France and Russia to veto.

This is why he gets paid and I beg for donations.
