THIS DAY IN TWITCHY: DECEMBER 6, 2014

Mary Landrieu's defense of Obamacare vote is hilariously desperate

Seriously. Landrieu says that Obama was pushing single payer, and ACA was her way of stopping it. Shameless.
— Ed Morrissey (@EdMorrissey) December 6, 2014

You know what would have thwarted Obama, Sen. Landrieu? Not being the 60th vote for ObamaCare.

— Michael Finkle ن (@theMblaze) December 6, 2014

@TheDailyShow @sbcountyda Once again the midget minded Lib paints all police with a broad brush instead of focusing on the real problem!
— Roger B (@RogerBiles) December 6, 2014

@TheDailyShow @sbcountyda If U dont rob & steal, attack police, obey the police then U will not be shot & killed. Talk about that Funny Man!
— Roger B (@RogerBiles) December 6, 2014

@TheDailyShow @sbcountyda The problem is not the police. The problem is disrespect for the police & libs like U fueling these ignorant thugs

I’m afraid that @ZerlinaMaxwell has just outed herself as an extraordinary dangerous and illiberal person. Shame. http://t.co/6qMyIxsHAa

What about the young men accused? I have grown sons. Does writer have any idea what that does to falsely accused men http://t.co/VwSLyq8ia6

Another "for the greater good" piece that's astoundingly dangerous and short-sighted. Unreal. http://t.co/YuPEUlT0Dl

No @ZerlinaMaxwell we should not automatically believe rape claims. We have a legal system, not a witch hunt. http://t.co/hkKCEOQxp5

Never mind that 'innocent until proven guilty' guff, all men are rapists until proven otherwise. Feminism is toxic. http://t.co/cI5BJHDxV8

How could you defend Shane Ray after that hit? Pathetic @CBSSports

I'm sorry but that Shane Ray ejection was complete BS, penalty worthy yes but ejection... no way. These refs are getting excessive 😒
— Abigail Griffith (@A_Griff2) December 6, 2014

Shane Ray got kicked out because its Alabama, that's it. Plan and simple.

White anarchist advises setting aside 'smashy smashy,' letting people of color take lead

Fellow white anarchists: I know smashy smashy is fun but we need to be intersectional in our action & think abt who will be blamed
— Evan Avery Birch (@brassiest) December 7, 2014

What is more important? Smashing a Starbucks window or stepping back and letting POC take the lead on this?
— Evan Avery Birch (@brassiest) December 7, 2014

I'm not a fan of the "white anarchist/communist infiltrators" line either BUT there are white radicals acting like fools, you know this
