“Are you now or have you ever been a crummy Satan-worshippin’ Lib’rul?” I mean, isn’t that what everyone was waiting for? Marjorie Traitor Goon leaning forward to leer at Anthony Fauci and accuse him of membership in the Illuminati who we all know have been bent on world domination for a thousand years and what would be a better way to achieve that than to have your Chinese co-conspirators invent a new fake disease that never really killed anyone who had taken Our Lord Jeebus as their Personal Saver and Banker but the fake media George Soros bankrolls tried to tell Real Amurrikins that it did?
I had a good laugh at your Alabama town. I did an interview with our right-wing local paper long before Sheldon Adelson owned it. Our governor, Jim Gibbons, claimed Democrats bought off The Wall Street Journal to write nasty things about him--really. The reporter asked me if any previous governor had come up with anything like that, and I answered in my historian garb. Then she asked my opinion and I replied:
“What Gibbons is doing is sounding like a guy broadcasting from his bedroom on public access on the far end of the AM (radio) dial in Buttflap, Alabama."
The reporter got hysterical. She had to call back later at an editor's request with a question: WAS there such a town. I said that actually, I stole this from a friend who liked to refer to Buttfuck, North Dakota, so we were ok.
The editor, who still blogs about the importance of the First Amendment after finally being pushed out, banned me from being quoted.
The reporter was Molly Ball. I claim that quote made her career. :)
I am laughing so hard I can barely write this sentence! Way to go TC!! What a crowd of nitwits and worse! And it has only been 2 months. Lordy! What a f****** load of stupidity!
One needs to be old to really remember HUAC and the Red Scare days. In 1959 Harry Truman said that HUAC was "the most un-American thing in the country today."
Shades of a private investigator in the sepia-toned atmosphere of his office, telling it like it is and pausing only to scowl as he drinks bitter amber liquor from a coffee cup while a cigarette burns forgotten atop the stubbs in the ashtray.
Another winner, TC. The house of cards seems to be folding fast at the moment. Glad the Dems got suited up with their anti-clown outfits and documents for a big blast.
I like it when you do the Conserv-tive Charlie McCarthy show. Puppet on knee, swivel head swivling, audience rapt for the next straight line as Jack Benny drawls, “Now Mary….”
Hey, just give the GQP two more weeks to come up with something for the hearings…that worked so well for El Jefe de MaraLardo during his tenure. Hopefully the baying hounds will be sniffing out another scandal and will have forgotten what the hell happened two news cycles before.
“Actually, you do look like the Big Bad Wolf, panting and gasping after huffing and puffing and failing to blow the house down.“
Thank you.
After a week with my mother in law telling me I needed to join a church (in fairness, I snorted wine from my nose) I’m actually laughing out loud. This one’s a gem.
WHERE ARE THE HUAC HEARINGS?

Good one. It would be an interesting 1-hour HBO special with appropriate warnings attached so the teenagers would make sure to watch it.
'Jungle Gym Jordan got his ass kneecapped ' I'm speechless TC.
“ I will never leave that woman” How creepy was that ! Bad return on investment, Kev.
And Smartmatic’s lawsuit against Fox is advancing. Asking for much more in damages than Dominion. (Republican) House of Cards

Another PRICELESS collection from you Tom. I keep all of these
and when a little discouraged, go back and read them. Perfect
description of the current mob.
well, I Laughed Out Loud a good half-dozen times.
you DO seem to be a little hard on (yeah, yeah, it's one of those spontaneous puns) MTG for her only nice trait.

If anyone could make me laugh about this travesty, you did it with this "report" from circus HQ!

You definitely know how to expose a bunch of slippery slimy scumbags and turn it in to a comedy. I laughed so hard I thought I fractured a rib.

A rant for the ages! Masterful!
The more mockery the better, I say. They understand it and can’t do a damn thing about it.
Seeing McCarthy and Jordan and Comer ‘exposed’ reminds me of the old Coppertone ad,
with Swalwell and Raskin and crew as the rascally dog doing the tugging.
Jamie Raskin, on Politics Girl, before the election, said that Dems should employ more mockery and humor. There was plenty of material.
Right wing ‘humor’ always falls flat. DeSantis is walking around right now with a ‘Kick Me’ sign taped to his back.
