Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

In my day, never was longer.

Proof that we need a blogger ethics panel.

Meanwhile over at truth Social, the former president is busy confessing to crimes.

… riddled with inexplicable and elementary errors of law and fact

But frankly mr. cole, I’ll be happier when you get back to telling us to go fuck ourselves.

It may be funny to you motherfucker, but it’s not funny to me.

I know this must be bad for Joe Biden, I just don’t know how.

Jesus, Mary, & Joseph how is that election even close?

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

Republicans do not pay their debts.

if you can’t see it, then you are useless in the fight to stop it.

Presidents are not kings, and Plaintiff is not President.

When someone says they “love freedom”, rest assured they don’t mean yours.

The republican caucus is already covering themselves with something, and it’s not glory.

I did not have telepathic declassification on my 2022 bingo card.

Wow, you are pre-disappointed. How surprising.

Bark louder, little dog.

We are builders in a constant struggle with destroyers. let’s win this.

Eh, that’s media spin. biden’s health is fine and he’s doing a good job.

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

A Senator Walker would be an insult to the state and the nation.

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

Pessimism assures that nothing of any importance will change.

And now I have baud making fun of me. this day can’t get worse.

Thought your awkward teenage years were difficult? Imagine them naked:

On the third-to-last day of summer camp, the temperature has risen to 98 degrees, and even the troupers have begun to whine.

“I don’t want to play strip volleyball!” complained Jane Jeffries, 13, her sunburned shoulders sagging. “I want to play regular volleyball.”

Halie Nelson, 14, agreed, “Yeah, I’d rather get all the clothes off, and keep all the clothes off.”

Here at the Youth Leadership Camp run by the American Association for Nude Recreation, the dress code for regular volleyball

This is the best news I have heard in weeks:

The Sopranos,” the most successful series in the history of cable television, will not end with its fifth season but will instead have one more, lasting 10 episodes, Brad Grey, one of the show’s executive producers, said last night.

With the additional season, “The Sopranos” will end with 75 episodes on HBO, enough for a potential sale in syndication, which is likely to be among the most lucrative ever for a cable program.

“The big issue was the creative one that David had to make,” Mr. Grey said, referring to the show’s creator, David Chase. “He had to decide whether he had more stories to tell, and he decided that he did.”

As long as the last two seasons are as good as the first two, this is great news.

Free Markets

Via Matthew Yglesias, we see this tibit of idiocy:

The Bush administration ruled today that United States computer chip makers and catfish farmers were subjected to unfair foreign competition and ordered stiff tariffs on imports of South Korean computer chips and Vietnamese catfish.

The Commerce Department rulings upheld, with minor adjustments, preliminary tariff determinations that the agency issued earlier in the year.

In the computer chip case, the department ruled that the South Korean government unfairly subsidized two big South Korean manufacturers. The department ordered tariffs as high as 44.71 percent.

In the catfish case, the department determined that Vietnam had dumped catfish on the American market at unfairly low prices. It said that catfish imports from Vietnam would be subject to anti-dumping tariffs ranging from 44.66 percent to 63.88 percent.

I have mentioned how much I hate tariffs, haven’t I?

Orrin Hatch Has Lost His Mind

I am about a step away from moving to Montana and living in a shack in the woods. I can no longer take the incessant stupidity emanating from both sides of the aisle in the House and Senate. We don’t deserve to have these people as leaders. How did this happen? At any rate, here is the Chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee stating that he is in favor of allowing the RIAA and Hollywood to become the judge, jury, and executioner in regards to copyright laws:

No one is interested in destroying anyone’s computer,” replied Randy Saaf of MediaDefender Inc., a secretive Los Angeles company that builds technology to disrupt music downloads. One technique deliberately downloads pirated material very slowly so other users can’t.

“I’m interested,” Hatch interrupted. He said damaging someone’s computer “may be the only way you can teach somebody about copyrights.”

The senator acknowledged Congress would have to enact an exemption for copyright owners from liability for damaging computers. He endorsed technology that would twice warn a computer user about illegal online behavior, “then destroy their computer.”

“If we can find some way to do this without destroying their machines, we’d be interested in hearing about that,” Hatch said. “If that’s the only way, then I’m all for destroying their machines. If you have a few hundred thousand of those, I think people would realize” the seriousness of their actions, he said.

“There’s no excuse for anyone violating copyright laws,” Hatch said.

There is no excuse for being an asshole, either, Orrin.

Hideous Amendments

TalkLeft discussed a proposed constitutional amendment that you should be against:

This should be getting more attention. Senators Dianne Feinstein (D-CA) and r Jon Kyl (D-AZ) have successfully pushed their proposed Victim’s Rights Amendment to the U.S. Constitution through a Senate Panel vote. But the bill has many detractors in Congress.

Every Democrat on the panel voted against her. Think about it for a moment. A constititutional amendment? Why? Wouldn’t a federal law do, if that’s what Congress wants to pass?

Jeralynn has a detailed article here.
