Yup. They still blame all of the issues on other people, not themselves. Their entitlements are important, but other peoples’ are ridiculous. Zero empathy whatsoever.

I don’t know...evidence of Orange’s treasonous insanity is available to all at this point, and he never got even half the country’s support when his numbers were at their peak.

If one of those boards existed for the Dump presidency—you know the kind, where it says “X amount of days since last accident” on job sites—the thing would just have an enormous, flashing neon ZERO permanently soldered onto it.

Are there days yet when Trump hasn’t been shown to be an embarrassment? Surprise! Words have meaning, asshole. I hope this is a multimillion dollar lawsuit that drags him through the mud for a long, long time.

Mr. O’Reilly is fully committed to supporting our efforts to improve the environment for all our employees at Fox News.

It’s just the reflex of assholes when they don’t get what they want from women. Although, most of those guys typically go with “You’re ugly anyway” as opposed to mocking their possessions.

I can remember being bullied in grade school because my backpack wasn’t the cool kind. He’s like a giant child, and his behavior makes more sense in that light.

He is indeed the worst, but that’s such a strange thing to bully someone over. I mean sure any sort of taunt from him would feel threatening (he’s enormously tall and frequently red faced with anger), but my taste in handbags has to be one of the things I would feel the least defensive about if someone started…

*sigh* Tell me that myth about meritocracy again. You know the one where the asshole without any real skills is not favored over those who aren’t assholes and have real skills.

“My country should continue investing in a futile and unsustainable industry because I have somehow made it to adulthood with the complete inability to develop any other job skills besides this one particular thing.”

That’s all I’m hearing from these “overlooked rural whites” and their insistence that civilization bend…

I’m not sure mining and the fashion world mix. Might get the black lung.

Maybe all this coal business is a round about way of increasing the number of people employed by J.C. Penny? Once acid rain returns, we’ll have to replace our clothes more often!

That last paragraph sounds so much like my ex-son-in law it’s scary. He always thought he was the smartest in the room, when truth be told he was maybe 5th or 6th. (Jury’s still out, some of think the cat is smarter.)

Ryan: Car insurance: People who are driving without accidents are paying premiums for people who make money by totaling their cars. That’s wrong!

My favorite Ryan anecdote is that his entire reputation for being a wonk stems from responding to questions with answers that begin with “well I don’t want to get too wonky.”

Wait, you mean they guy who doesn’t understand how insurance (of any kind) works might not be the best guy to lead the fight on healthcare?

Precisely! Paul Ryan is a “wonk” in the sense that most undergraduate students are “wonks.” (I include the 18-22 year old version of myself in this group). They have ideologies on how the world should work but never get into actually playing out how those ideologies may be functionally enacted and the consequences of…

sober policy knower Paul Ryan
