If House Democrats can get enough Republicans to support extending Obamacare subsidies, then it will put real pressure on Senate Republicans to pass it, as even they know that Obamacare is popular. There was an article just earlier this week about how wary many Congressional Republicans are of...

Pamela Hensley was a real babe on that show as well, and as the evil Princess Ardala she was always lusting after and trying to seduce Buck to join the dark side. And of course he always resisted, although to be fair I did think that Wilma was hotter. I had forgotten that Markie Post had one of...

I remember reading a biography of Jackie Robinson integrating the Major Leagues and it noted that many of the mediocre white players were among those who were the most opposed to integrating baseball, because they knew it would mean the end of their playing careers in the Major Leagues. Some of...

If we still had real news media in this country someone probably would, but as we now have shallow entertainment networks and right-wing propaganda outlets masquerading as news networks that's unlikely to happen anytime soon.

Little did people know during the initial invasion of Iraq, when we were all laughing at Hussein's Iraqi propaganda minister (Baghdad Bob) spewing blatant, easily proven, and often unintentionally funny lies that a little over two decades later we would have our very own version of Baghdad Bob -...

Given what a cheap bastard he is, do you think he really paid for it himself?

I remember the vampire episode well. I've seen it as an adult and it's really hokey, but as a kid it was pretty scary - the creepy space station and more and more of the crew getting turned into vampires, and finally Wilma became a vampire and went after Buck. And of course he found a way to...

Dang. I used to love watching that show as a kid. Most of the episodes were pretty cheesy and hokey, and I did like the original Battlestar Galactica and Space: 1999 better, but as a kid it was still great fun and seeing Wilma Deering (Erin Gray) in those tight spandex space uniforms was...

If that's all he's doing then he could easily just have texted it while sitting on the toilet around 1 AM like he does most of the time. If he's just going to brag on himself then I guess he's feeling down and needy enough to have to go on national television to get his ego boost. I do wonder if...

No surprise, but just more evidence that he really is fucking insane, out of his mind, unhinged, and drunk with power now that it is clear that our system of checks and balances and separation of powers has simply broken down. We'll be lucky if don't find ourselves in a serious war within the...

Just wait until he gets going on the Hitleresque bunker he'll build somewhere on the WH grounds to hole up in!

CBS News is now being run by someone whose goal is to remove CBS's "woke leftist tilt" and has added personally interviewing right-wing celebrities like Erika Kirk to the network's prime time programming. I wouldn't expect much in the way of accurate or sane or fair reporting anymore from the...

I can't believe that just a few days ago on the College Football Thread people were talking about the Michigan coach's extramarital affair and I posted about Petrino and his epic scandal leading to classic memes like this one, and now it appears, incredible as it sounds, that he is a leading...

I was waiting for the ratings of her interview to be released, and expected this would be the result. The effort to steal viewers from existing and long-established right-wing networks was likely always a bad move. Republicans have been suspicious of and hating on CBS News since Dan Rather was...

Indeed. Except that most of them - and I'm talking about the MAGA base here and not just the leadership - don't actually practice or live up to those things in private. Most of these macho tough guys are beta male nerds and cowards in private, much of their base and leaders alike are white...
