That's so much like Ben's actual one-handed typing, I had to recheck that I was reading Roy!

Close to the bone, Roy, but " Shapiro supports a ban on abortion, even in cases of rape and incest..." is the knife blunt enough?

I'm glad you gave the Albigensians the recognition they deserve, but let's not neglect the Marcionites, Valentarians and Arianians. Without them would there have been an Albigensians or Saul Alinsky?

*sigh* It seems like only yesterday he was our little Virgin Ben, a fresh-faced bigot in knee-pants and training wheels at Piece Of Shit School. Now he's a Full Professor at Prager University. My how fast they grow! Just like some tumors. Sunrise, sunset, eh? And since Trump has shown that even a wretched, irredeemably unqualified scumbag can be elected to the highest office in the land, do we dare to expect even greater things for the Elfin Shitstain? Well, just think: in a few days, our little Ben will be old enough to run for president! Listen to the sound of this in your head: "President Shapiro", "President Shapiro", "President Shapiro..." I'm sure little Ben does.

"...one of The Left’s classic fear and intimidation tactics is humor."

Now you tell me. All this time I could have been scaring and intimidating people, wasted.

This was in Roy's retweets. I admit I never cared much for Ringwald as an actor, and don't know

anything about her personally, but this is pretty fucking cool.

Should be "Thirsty Ben" now.

I love how these RW Twitter troll-types "great thoughts" all sound like something you'd hear on a barstool at 1:55 am in a bar entirely populated by lonely dudes who have all been kicked in the head by a donkey (maybe even the same donkey).

This was almost Dreherian in its repressed, passive aggressive and absurdist argumentation. But you really captured Little Ben very well indeed, especially the self-referencing to his books and other writings. I was chuckling throughout.

Oh man. I wish we would have let the "attacks" based on that video go on much longer.

Well now I've read that the twitter account that posted the AOC video as "bad" was a fake conservative account and that no REAL conservatives criticized AOC for this video.

I really wish twitter had never existed.

Andrew McCarthy at National Review is giving himself wiggle-room! From the comments to the article:

" I am reasonably confident that the bottom line will be that there is no criminal collusion case."

Wow, even Trump's defacto external defense lawyer here is giving himself quite a bit of wiggle room now. I guess Mueller is doing his job...
