I'm sick of seeing the phrases "that wouldn't pass" and "that wouldn't make it through Congress"

loving say what they really mean: there are too many lovely members of Congress who won't vote for it, and whoever's saying it doesn't have the guts to come out swinging

Kings George I and II of England could barely speak intelligible English and spent more time dealing with their own failed sons than ruling the Empire —but they gave patronage to Handel. Ludwig II of Bavaria was believed to be insane and went into debt compulsively building castles — but he gave patronage to Wagner. Barack Obama deported more immigrants than any other president and expanded the drone program in order to kill almost 3,500 people — but he gave patronage to a neoliberal nerdcore musical. God bless this great land.

Hamilton sucks, but the ragtimey bits of "room where it happens" are very catchy.

quote:

Adopting populist economic policies like those championed by Senator Bernie Sanders will keep the Democratic Party locked out of power, according to a report published Tuesday by centrist think tank Third Way.

The report, based on findings of online focus groups with voters who switched support from Barack Obama in 2012 to Donald Trump in 2016, as well as persuadable African-American, Latino and millennial voters, urges Democrats to instead become “the jobs party.”

Most of the dumb people they polled in focus groups were more upset over poor people being able to collect social safety net benefits
then rich people getting everything they want and being able to subvert democracy to get even richer.

With the retaking of Mosul in Iraq and the sieges of Raqqa and Deir ez-Zor almost over—and Syria's imminent victory over ISIL—I love to think about Obama's weapons program for "rebels" and Hillary's no-fly zone :allears:

This one is hilarious, because it's nominally "about" Sanders being the most popular politician in America but the author is so loving mad about it you can loving smell it :allears:

It autoplayed a video entitled "BERNIE SANDERS VOTERS HELPED TRUMP WIN"

The first interstitial link is "Related: Bernie Sanders voters helped Trump win and here's proof"

there are two Peter Daou tweets embedded in the loving article

e: the author is John Haltiwanger, who I am diagnosing with a terminal case of salt further exacerbated by the worst case of Stupid Name I've seen in quite some time
