Raiders haven’t signed poo poo and Twitter libs are acting like this is a major win against the GOP.

The quotation marks are so weird, like reading comic book dialogue from the 30s, where every slang term or colloquialism needed to be clearly identified.

"Come on "Knuckles" grab your "gat" and we will make sure that old Mr. Anderson "sleeps with the fishes" tonight!"
"Sure thing, Boss! We'll take the "hot rod" over to his "pad" and give him "the business" until he tells up where the diamonds are hidden!"

we require you to know that you cannot fix anything but also continue participating in electing democrats and nothing else and questioning nothing they do

But if you don't do the same empty postures and rituals that I do, that might imply that I've been doing them for nothing all this time!

at least it’s finally “fixing” the blatant hypocrisy of Obama’s ban on flavored tobacco (mostly cloves made in Indonesia, which a tiny fraction of smokers consume) except for menthols (which the cigarette companies here make) that he personally smoked along with half the country

that poo poo was blatant

I thought it was because they didn't want to "@" summon him, but it's actually because Politico referred to Harris as just "Kamala" in a tweet, with no @ or honorific. The horror!

Elayne Boosler on the performing her set at the 1993 [white house correspondents] Dinner:

“I will tell you and it’s true for all: they laugh, they scream, they laugh. The next day, every paper pans you, every person shuns you. It’s like they’ve had sex with a hooker and then when they pass her in the street the next day, they make believe they don’t know her. So that’s what you’re going to get if you say yes to this dinner.”

I've posted this before, I want to say it again.

The fact that the Dems are so warped by neoliberalism that their ideology of non-action has let them lose basic ground on abortion and LGBT rights is a minor *crack ping*. I'm not really surprised, but it definitely is a really hosed up thing that I was proven right on, and wish I wasn't.

this account has got to be an op by some far right troll to make democrats look ridiculous right

The boomer Dems are all part of the Occupy Democrats Facebook group, which basically consists of a bunch of Occupy Democrats tweets, but in meme form (with the added benefit of boomer Republicans also arguing with them in the comments I think).

Occupy Democrats is basically a view into Facebook Dems (which are far more numerous than Twitter ones).

they redeemed dick cheney and george w bush simply because they weren't the forbidden orange gameshow hose whose name we can't mention, and did i mention what practical people and rational thinkers we are as a party

their only brand is opposing republcians because doing something else requires having policy goals or ideology, and democrats have neither

the democrats are not so much a political party and more of a networking club

They operate like a dominant party in a single-party state where it's mostly a patronage network that provides no services to the public (and do everything they can to freeze out reformers and idealists who want the party to act like a political party), but they do this while they constantly lose territory and support over the course of decades
