And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

He's like, "I did something stupid. I'm sorry. But it was one stupid thing against my whole record. Really, I was stupid. And I'm sorry. Vote for me!"

That's kind of great, actually.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That's kind of great, actually.

Yeah, I thought so. When do you ever hear anyone say "I was stupid"?!? It was no "mistakes were made." He was just flat out there.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Has it always been the case that winning politics hinges on mudslinging and scandal?

Well, there used to be duels involved, too.

I honestly think the Democrats (generally) weather these scandals better because they don't set themselves up as paragons of virture.

I've just put a ginormous pot of vegetable soup on the stove. Now we just have to let it cook for a few hours.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Barak Obama admits to cocaine and marajuana use in his book, probably as a way of immunizing himself against future attacks.

This, on the other hand, is just plain depressing:

There will be virtually nothing left to fish from the seas by the middle of the century if current trends continue, according to a major scientific study.

Stocks have collapsed in nearly one-third of sea fisheries, and the rate of decline is accelerating.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Barak Obama admits to cocaine and marajuana use in his book, probably as a way of immunizing himself against future attacks.

So if I ever run for office, I suppose I should admit to puppy-torture right off the bat....

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Has this already been posted? That's Colin or I need more caffeine.

I love that his childhood diet proves his lack of worth. Oh how times change! Today, it would be, "I grew up so poor, I ate frogs from the pond sometimes! I walked uphill to the outhouse, both ways!! I may live in a ten-bedroom house today, but once upon a time, I did know what ordinary people were like!"

Feh.
