    Awesome quote speaking against partisanship for the sake of partisanship ...

    .... an "Yglesias Award Nominee", in Dish parlance:


    Yglesias Award Nominee


    "I’m tired of Republican, Democrat politics; I’m tired of blowhard radio people, blowhard television people, blowhard newspapers. They can take the job and shove it. I come from a blue-collar background, I’m trying to do the right thing, and that’s where I’m going with this," - New York senator Roy J. McDonald, becoming the second Republican in the GOP-controlled senate this week to switch support in favor of marriage equality. More on this week's remarkable turn of events here.
