It's getting harder to hear "both parties are the same" when they seem to be running full speed in opposite directions...

I probably don't have to say this, but spin up some Hendrix today.

If anyone should have their head in a bag, it's Sen. John Kennedy (R-Assholia), not Maya Berry.

In a sane country, no public official could speak like this and hold their job for another 10 seconds.
