Nearly Christmas Open Thread

Cake or Pudding?

Well played President Obama, well played. The US President, Vice President and their wives won’t be attending because, oopsie too busy, eye roll.

Bitch please. We are hilarious!

Let the GOP pearl clutching begin.

Hunks for HealthCare Seriously tho, January 1st isn’t that far away.

Big Surprise the Duck Dynasty star is a bigoted racist homophobe who blames the 60’s and the bible for it. Lesigh.

If fan fiction about the gay love affairs of Republican congressmen is your thing, Paul Ryan XXX is the Tumblr you’ve been waiting for.  I read part of it so you don’t have to. It’s well written I’ll give it that.  Oh and here’s a picture of Aaron Shock ( in the turquoise belt) if his face isn’t immediately familiar to you.

    Two sides of the same coin. Pay up now, or pay up later. Avoidance is impossible.

    The GOP’s Great Depression agenda
    BY RYAN COOPER

    And what that looks like operationally, with the blood & suffering included.

    Memo to Rep. Jack ‘Are there no workhouses?’ Kingston, the ‘school lunch’ program is actually quite a bit older than imagined. A challenge for you and your cohort of sniveling conniving minions who seek to impoverish the poor. Find someone still alive who was Required to ‘sweep up’ the school floors in order to be fed by such a government program. Dickensian much? JMP
