“All we Republicans want to do is pass a law requiring Congress to approve giving retirees back their money every five years. That way, we can shut down Social Security completely, and decide who to give the money to when it’s best for the American people.”
McCarthy will not criticize his “work wife” Marge. He has already acknowledged he will never let her go.

I think Joe actually likes it. He certainly seemed to enjoying himself last night. High energy and having fun.

It doesn’t. The entire party is a immune to shame. This embarrassment won’t phase them and soon enough they’ll be pushing the idea to the rubes again that it’s a good idea because it’ll hurt people their followers don’t like.
Biden, judo master.
Underestimated, under-appreciated judo master.
His bipartisan discourse isn’t senile naiveté, it’s patient studied clever positioning.

It is a rhetorical trap, no one thinks they’re “bound” but they have boxed themselves in

I listened. I agree with Josh, I’ve never seen one like it.
I always liked Bill’s speeches, long as they were, I never watched much of Trumps because they weren’t anything remotely suitable for a SOTU. Just hideous lies, hate, threats, and self gratification.
But this was different, for one, he talked to us, kept the de riguer laundry list to a minimum, and he actually engaged the chamber and played them for the fools they are.
He shoulda put on his aviators for the second half, would have driven them nuts!
Saw the start of Sanders thing. WTF was she talking about? I know they gotta fearmonger, but jeebus, I’m surprised split pea soup didn’t just projectile the whole time her piehole was open. That clip of Michelle Wolff at the Press Dinner? That was brutal, and absolutely true. I wonder if ALL the folks in Arkansas were proud of that speech?

I’m sure the ones that counted were.
Many of the folks in Arkansas don’t count, though.

Sarah Huckabee Sanders’s affect when speaking has always seemed to me like the meanest, most pathologically judgy Sunday school teacher ever. Joyless, unattractive in more than the physical sense, motivated by something dark and extremely unpleasant under the surface. I was amazed to see the WH press corps rep rise so adamantly to her defense after Wolf’s jokes at the WHCD. Who knew she supposedly had a distinguished career as a communications professional before her gig snarling like a Doberman at anyone who dared ask the Trump administration a serious question? Talk about someone who dished it out every day but couldn’t take it her own smarmy self.
So now I just have to wonder what on earth is going on in Arkansas that they chose her governor? A lot of holy wars brewing there, maybe.

You know, doddering. From the Middle High German dodder, meaning “ass” and the Norman ringen, meaning “to kick”.
Example usages:
“He doddered the GOP up one side of the aisle and down the other.”
“Wow, that was a royal doddering he gave them.”

It was pretty brutal, because it was very direct and unvarnished.
All her “peers” at the time heard the ugly truth about Sanders. She would be first in line to smear rendered babies all over herself if it were offered as an aid to advancing her cause, first in line. And the likes of Peter Baker would be right there with her.
You sure that wasn’t Buggering?
She regularly says things like, “I just talked to Donald Trump…” and is really proud that there’s a picture of her phone with DJT as the caller on the screen. I expect she’s pretty much told Qevin that he either does what she says or he’s going to wish he had because “I’M TELLING!” He’s so friggin’ scared of what TFG will do if he steps out of line, he can’t think of any other way to deal with her than to let her have her way.

dictionary def: “moving in a feeble or unsteady way, especially because of old age.”
elderly people walk like that because of uneven surfaces…i use a cane or walker…i walk rather slow…if it bothers you, go around me…i do not mean YOU, specificly…its the generic you.i even get why Trumpf walked slowly down stair steps…they are a bitch.
Sorry it was already taken! But as someone who learned about this period studying music history, I can’t hear it any other way than sturm und drang.
Beethoven sums it up!
