Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Whatever happens next week, the fight doesn’t end.

“Jesus paying for the sins of everyone is an insult to those who paid for their own sins.”

If you are still in the gop, you are either an extremist yourself, or in bed with those who are.

“Loving your country does not mean lying about its history.”

This really is a full service blog.

An almost top 10,000 blog!

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

This is dead girl, live boy, a goat, two wetsuits and a dildo territory.  oh, and pink furry handcuffs.

A snarling mass of vitriolic jackals

So it was an October Surprise A Day, like an Advent calendar but for crime.

The real work of an opposition party is to oppose.

A democracy can’t function when people can’t distinguish facts from lies.

If you cannot answer whether trump lost the 2020 election, you are unfit for office.

Stand up, dammit!
