Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Humiliatingly small and eclipsed by the derision of millions.

Following reporting rules is only for the little people, apparently.

A norm that restrains only one side really is not a norm – it is a trap.

They punch you in the face and then start crying because their fist hurts.

These days, even the boring Republicans are nuts.

Hi god, it’s us. Thanks a heap, you’re having a great week and it’s only Thursday!

How stupid are these people?

if you can’t see it, then you are useless in the fight to stop it.

Hey hey, RFK, how many kids did you kill today?

The unpunished coup was a training exercise.

… pundit janitors mopping up after the gop

Trump should be leading, not lying.

Fundamental belief of white supremacy: white people are presumed innocent, minorities are presumed guilty.

A fool as well as an oath-breaker.

Museums are not America’s attic for its racist shit.

If you still can’t see these things even now, maybe politics isn’t your forte and you should stop writing about it.

She burned that motherfucker down, and I am so here for it. Thank you, Caroline Kennedy.

They think we are photo bombing their nice little lives.

No offense, but this thread hasn’t been about you for quite a while.

So fucking stupid, and still doing a tremendous amount of damage.

The “burn-it-down” people are good with that until they become part of the kindling.

Putting aside our relentless self-interest because the moral imperative is crystal clear.

Not so fun when the rabbit gets the gun, is it?

Since when do we limit our critiques to things we could do better ourselves?

I have got to figure

I have got to figure out why I am only allowed to post a certain number of column inches before it cuts me off. Really annoying have to write in word, then post in reverse order pieces of one thing so it appears on the right order on the blog.
