Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

The revolution will be supervised.

This really is a full service blog.

If ‘weird’ was the finish line, they ran through the tape and kept running.

Never entrust democracy to any process that requires Republicans to act in good faith.

Only Democrats have agency, apparently.

In after Baud. Damn.

People identifying as christian while ignoring christ and his teachings is a strange thing indeed.

Trump’s cabinet: like a magic 8 ball that only gives wrong answers.

Hot air and ill-informed banter

“Perhaps I should have considered other options.” (head-desk)

Putting aside our relentless self-interest because the moral imperative is crystal clear.

Optimism opens the door to great things.

When someone says they “love freedom”, rest assured they don’t mean yours.

It’s pointless to bring up problems that can only be solved with a time machine.

Insiders who complain to politico: please report to the white house office of shut the fuck up.

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

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

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

You can’t attract Republican voters. You can only out organize them.

Wow, I can’t imagine what it was like to comment in morse code.

The fight for our country is always worth it. ~Kamala Harris

The truth is, these are not very bright guys, and things got out of hand.

Washington Post Catch and Kill, not noticeably better than the Enquirer’s.

The next time the wall street journal editorial board speaks the truth will be the first.

One thing I do have

One thing I do have to comment on for today (other than I think the Lindh sentence is fair- that is really what the justice system is all about- some av erage schmoe like me can hear the sentence and say ‘That sounds reasonable” and then I can move on and not have to hear about the despicable prick or his wacky parents for 20 years). On MSNBC today, they actually had a debate titled (with the snazzy little graphics at the bottom of the screen) “Corporate Scandals- Is President Bush part of the solution or part of the problem?” The clear implication being that Bush and Cheney have done something wrong with Harken and Halliburton. I know you lefties like to lie and fool yourselves about bias in the media, but c’mon. The only thing dumber than expecting the President being able to talk the economy sound is blaming the President for these corporate scandals. Morons everywhere, I tell ya.
