I think it was Ta-Nahesi Coates who had an article called “we’re all welfare queens now” or something like that. And the idea was that the race baiting which the GOP had engaged in had come back around to hurt their own constituents. It goes back to something that Republican strategist Lee Atwater said when he…

I think this is pretty spot-on and is something I’ve been saying to folks for years now. It really hit home to me in the closing weeks of the 2012 election during the peak of the “unskew the polls” phenomenon. The rubes were eating this shit up as usual, but then it became obvious that plenty of actual power players…

So the tiniest, insubtatiated hint that women would acknowledge the commodified nature of their sexuality in our culture and try to monetize it, is worse than extensively-documented incidents of male athletes violently coercing gratificatio from less valued persons (women) and thereby maintaining the social structures…

Pro tip from a woman: If you want to “respect your wife,” then don’t cheat on her, or flirt with other women, or be a prop in an administration that is an international embarrassment. None of that precludes you from have a normal business relationship with other women, which often includes eating. You know, the thing…

Exactly! You never know when an illegal in Chicago will use his mind powers to attack a hardworking Republican in Iowa.

By then they will only have soy/tofu vegan cheesesteaks. Just the thought of it makes me nauseous.

Trump is a poor man’s idea of a rich man, a stupid man’s idea of a smart man and a weak man’s idea of a strong man.

I’m overestimating any part of the US electorate?

I’m sorry, but I must respectfully disagree. God bless him for calling Hannity onto the carpet, but this is not ideology. This is loyalty to a PARTY, which is entirely different. The GOP has no ideology. It is an orgy of fear, ignorance and hatred. I could actually understand loyalty to an ideology, to ideas. So much…

An anecdote of why you can’t run government like a business. As told by Jamie Vollmer:

How badly fractured, frazzled and in disarray does your party need to be to fail to pass a law when no one is stopping you?

I just saw Joe Barton’s shockingly candid and completely infuriating admission about why Republicans couldn’t make this happen. According to him, they didn’t have to come up with anything that would actually work in the past because they knew Obama would veto it anyway. Barton says Repubs got cold feet this time…

Well, before we giggle, let’s look at this big picture. The reality is that today’s non-vote means very little in the grand scheme of things. The GOP absolutely will find the right bill that guts healthcare, probably by focusing all the cuts on the poor and the young as opposed to letting the elderly (who always vote)…

More like the Fart of the Repeal, ammirite?

Had to be done.

Maximum Comboverdrive.
