Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Someone should tell Republicans that violence is the last refuge of the incompetent, or possibly the first.

Republican also-rans: four mules fighting over a turnip.

Good lord, these people are nuts.

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

Giving in to doom is how we fail to fight for ourselves & one another.

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

And now I have baud making fun of me. this day can’t get worse.

Mediocre white men think RFK Jr’s pathetic midlife crisis is inspirational. The bar is set so low for them, it’s subterranean.

Weird. Rome has an American Pope and America has a Russian President.

You cannot shame the shameless.

T R E 4 5 O N

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

You come for women, you’re gonna get your ass kicked.

People really shouldn’t expect the government to help after they watched the GOP drown it in a bathtub.

We are aware of all internet traditions.

These are not very smart people, and things got out of hand.

They fucked up the fucking up of the fuckup!

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

Take hopelessness and turn it into resilience.

You are so fucked. Still, I wish you the best of luck.

Boeing: repeatedly making the case for high speed rail.

Fuck these fucking interesting times.

“Can i answer the question? No you can not!”

I like political parties that aren’t owned by foreign adversaries.

Bias Watch

I think it was Andrew Sullivan who was holding the bias watch regarding the labeling of conservatives. At any rate, the unrivaled Instapundit had a discussion this afternoon about how one of the side effects of Greta van Susteren’s cosmetic surgery was a ‘spate of articles, like this one.’

I went to the article to read it, and I saw something that Glenn missed or just decided not to comment on. Great van Susteren was described as a television personality. See if you can find the labelling disparity:

If she looks too good — like conservative columnist Ann Coulter — she’s a bimbo who trades on her looks. If she looks like an ordinary person — like Van Susteren — she’s a battle-ax. Even if, as in Van Susteren’s case, her personality always gave a sheen to her less-than-perfect face.

Again, I don’t care if you call Ann Coulter a conservative. She is a conservative (I would call her an ULTRA-conservative). But if we need to toss out labels, what would Greta be? I’ll give you a hint. It isn’t conservative, which is a dirty word in the San Francisco publication that this story appeared in.
