The United States and its allies will never kill “the last terrorist.” Middle Eastern terrorists will continue to attack us and our allies, as long as we have a military presence in the Middle East. If you doubt that statement, look up how many times ISIS, Al-Qaeda, or other such groups have attacked Costa Rica […]
I enjoy football, but I wish the NFL wasn’t so Republican. If a football player beats up his wife or girlfriend, he might get suspended for up to four games. If a football player beats his son bloody with a switch while claiming faith in God, the suspension will be longer, but when he comes […]
Gun deaths, police violence, and global warming are epidemics, solvable with commitment, ingenuity, and cooperation. Unfortunately, as long as Republicans stand in the way, solutions to those problems will remain out of America’s grasp. With that in mind, I’d like to ask Republicans, “What will it take?” From 2000 to 2015, the equivalent to one-half […]
Now that Donald Trump has picked Jim Bridenstine (a global warming denier with no science experience) to head NASA, he must be consistent and pick Thomas Röhler (the Olympic gold medalist javelin thrower) to be the White House proctologist.
Marty’s photo of the day #2280: Once again the Republican Jesus has taken over my photo of the day: “Hey suckers . . . I mean God-fearing patriotic gun-loving conservatives! Our great white leader, Donald Trump, needs your help. Because some libtards couldn’t handle the fact that many Nazis and white supremacists are ‘very fine […]
It is unacceptable for Trump’s staff, Republican politicians, or Trump voters to say “Trump went rogue” on Tuesday, when he equated Nazi white supremacists with people protesting white supremacists. Trump didn’t go rogue. He went modus operandi! No one who paid enough attention to the presidential campaign to vote should be surprised by even one […]
Because I write liberal newspaper guest columns, right-wingers frequently criticize me in follow-up letters to the editor. I don’t have a problem with their letters. After all, I got to say my side; it’s only fair they get to respond. That being said, I find it amusing that by far their most frequent criticism of […]
Marty’s photo of the day #2276: Rock and roll is generally a liberal form of music. Even so, when it comes to guitarists, there is still quite a bit of sexism, as women seldom get the credit they deserve for their ability to play their instruments. I, being a non-sexist kind of guy, insist on […]
Barack Obama wouldn’t say “Radical Islamic Terrorist,” for fear of offending 1.6 billion innocent people. Donald Trump won’t say “White Supremacist Terrorist,” for fear of offending a huge chunk of his voter base. See? Democrats and Republicans aren’t all that different from each other.
“I would recommend you take a good look in the mirror & remember it was White Americans who put you in the presidency, not radical leftists.” —David Duke, responding to Donald Trump’s call for unity Hmmm . . . While I don’t think standing up for civil rights, health care for all, and protecting the […]
Oh, great! Little Donny has just threatened Venezuela. That makes two countries threatened in a single week. Please Melania! This is your opportunity to be the most important First Lady ever. Let Little Donny dress up like a toddler, change his diaper, spank him, and tell him “only big boys get to play with the […]
Sometimes I forget that being the most outspoken liberal in the ultra-conservative Bitterroot Valley of Montana puts me on the Republican’s Most Hated List. For years I have been getting into the face of conservatives via my guest columns in the Missoulian, Ravalli Republic, and Bitterroot Star newspapers. This has generated some hate mail and […]
Like pizza and beer, sometimes quotes are better together: “I’m going to surround myself only with the best and most serious people. We want top of the line professionals.”—Donald Trump (before getting rid of Scaramucci, Priebus, Spicer, Flynn, Manafort, and others) “Look at those hands. Are they small hands?”—Donald Trump (before handing the magnifying glass […]
Like pizza and beer, sometimes quotes are better together: “Get even with people. If they screw you, screw them back 10 times as hard. I really believe that.” —Donald Trump “I’ve seen firsthand that being president doesn’t change who you are. It reveals who you are.” —Michelle Obama
Here’s a little something to remember the next time someone tells you that Republicans and Democrats are equally dishonest: When Donald Trump Jr. was offered unsolicited dirt on Hillary Clinton from the Russians, he promptly wrote back “I love it” and set up a meeting. When Al Gore was preparing for his presidential candidate debate, […]
If Donald Trump Jr. doesn’t have to go to jail for colluding with the Russians, can we at least send him back to Africa until he eats every last piece of the leopard and elephant he killed to get his rocks off?
If you like Trump’s idea of teaming up with Putin to form an “impenetrable Cyber Security unit,” you’ll love his idea for a new restaurant franchise: Donald, Donner, & Dahmer’s.
A cult is a group of people that shuts out conflicting information and rejects facts in favor of an alternative reality. It’s time to call today’s Republican Party what it is: a cult. The Republican Party hasn’t always been a cult, but you can trace its conversion to one to the late 1980s and the […]
If you get more upset about cops being unfairly criticized for the actions of a few than you do about black men being unfairly shot by cops for the actions of a few, you really need to reboot your humanity.
If you think open carrying a gun on city streets makes you a big man, you really need to look down more often.
