Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

The words do not have to be perfect.

There are no moderate republicans – only extremists and cowards.

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

Just because you believe it, that does not make it true.

You don’t get to peddle hatred on saturday and offer condolences on sunday.

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

We’ve had enough carrots to last a lifetime. break out the sticks.

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

Today in our ongoing national embarrassment…

… gradually, and then suddenly.

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

There is no right way to do the wrong thing.

The lights are all blinking red.

The worst democrat is better than the best republican.

The Giant Orange Man Baby is having a bad day.

Every decision we make has lots of baggage with it, known or unknown.

One of our two political parties is a cult whose leader admires Vladimir Putin.

Motto for the House: Flip 5 and lose none.

Second rate reporter says what?

Let’s delete this post and never speak of this again.

You cannot love your country only when you win.

Bark louder, little dog.

Damn right I heard that as a threat.

Dear media: perhaps we ought to let Donald Trump speak for himself!

Bear with me. I am trying to find something I like. I thought I had found a color scheme I liked, and it was just too damned bright. Will Quick and Helen Hart have been helpoing me, but I am just getting disgusted now. Everything I try looks tacky and retina burning. Part of my problem was the arial font, which I have gotten rid of. Grumble…
