Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Fear or fury? The choice is ours.

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

Too often we confuse noise with substance. too often we confuse setbacks with defeat.

Accountability, motherfuckers.

Motto for the House: Flip 5 and lose none.

75% of people clapping liked the show!

Of course you can have champagne before noon. That’s why orange juice was invented.

There are a lot more evil idiots than evil geniuses.

There are no moderate republicans – only extremists and cowards.

The low info voters probably won’t even notice or remember by their next lap around the goldfish bowl.

Pessimism assures that nothing of any importance will change.

A fool as well as an oath-breaker.

“In this country American means white. everybody else has to hyphenate.”

This year has been the longest three days of putin’s life.

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

Is trump is trying to break black America over his knee? signs point to ‘yes’.

Dear elected officials: Trump is temporary, dishonor is forever.

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

Hell hath no fury like a farmer bankrupted.

Historically it was a little unusual for the president to be an incoherent babbling moron.

They don’t have outfits that big. nor codpieces that small.

Sometimes the world just tells you your cat is here.

You’re just a puppy masquerading as an old coot.

Their boy Ron is an empty plastic cup that will never know pudding.

In an attempt to prove

In an attempt to prove that guest letter writers can be as idiotic as regular columnists (insert your Ted Rall, Jacob Weisberg or columnist of your choice link here), a WaPo reader states that:

At this time, when disagreeing with the foreign policy of our country is akin to treason, maybe we should take a moment to look at what we do to cause our own internal fanatics, if only to understand what we can do to help prevent future foreign fanatics from attacking our shores.

Let’s see, one sentence indirectly covers non-existent civil rights erosion hysteria post 9/11, touches on the ‘blame America’ theme, and cries out to examine ‘root causes.’ Folks- this is a left-wing trifecta!

The whole letter is here, although it probably should have been sent here.

Triple Yawn.
