Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Only Democrats have agency, apparently.

It may be funny to you motherfucker, but it’s not funny to me.

We are builders in a constant struggle with destroyers. keep building.

Oppose, oppose, oppose. do not congratulate. this is not business as usual.

It’s a good piece. click on over. but then come back!!

You know it’s bad when the Project 2025 people have to create training videos on “How To Be Normal”.

Republicans got rid of McCarthy. Democrats chose not to save him.

Hot air and ill-informed banter

Quote tweet friends, screenshot enemies.

If you tweet it in all caps, that makes it true!

They want us to be overwhelmed and exhausted. Focus. Resist. Oppose.

Too often we hand the biggest microphones to the cynics and the critics who delight in declaring failure.

If senate republicans had any shame, they’d die of it.

Not all heroes wear capes.

Republicans cannot even be trusted with their own money.

They are not red states to be hated; they are voter suppression states to be fixed.

Accused of treason; bitches about the ratings. I am in awe.

Sadly, there is no cure for stupid.

Give the craziest people you know everything they want and hope they don’t ask for more? Great plan.

People are complicated. Love is not.

Hey Washington Post, “Democracy Dies in Darkness” was supposed to be a warning, not a mission statement.

Giving up is unforgivable.

Shallow, uninformed, and lacking identity

“Just close your eyes and kiss the girl and go where the tilt-a-whirl takes you.” ~OzarkHillbilly

The Illuminated Donkey discusses name

The Illuminated Donkey discusses name changes for blogs. This site (Balloon Juice, not Blogical Suspects) has had more name changes than days of existence. Now I find out that one of the reasons Blogical Suspects changed names was that when abbreivated it was BS. Balloon Juice, shortened, me thinks is worse. Sometimes I want to cry.
