Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

The line between political reporting and fan fiction continues to blur.

Of course you can have champagne before noon. That’s why orange juice was invented.

I’ve spoken to my cat about this, but it doesn’t seem to do any good.

The cruelty is the point; the law be damned.

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

Not loving this new fraud based economy.

Only Democrats have agency, apparently.

Nothing says ‘pro-life’ like letting children go hungry.

T R E 4 5 O N

Thanks to your bullshit, we are now under siege.

Black Jesus loves a paper trail.

Today in our ongoing national embarrassment…

I’d like to think you all would remain faithful to me if i ever tried to have some of you killed.

Our messy unity will be our strength.

When I was faster i was always behind.

Not so fun when the rabbit gets the gun, is it?

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

if you can’t see it, then you are useless in the fight to stop it.

Michigan is a great lesson for Dems everywhere: when you have power…use it!

Marge, god is saying you’re stupid.

People are complicated. Love is not.

Tide comes in. Tide goes out. You can’t explain that.

The revolution will be supervised.

America is going up in flames. The NYTimes fawns over MAGA celebrities. No longer a real newspaper.

Why does everyone in the

Why does everyone in the Granola Mafia talk like this:

These comments are from William Quick’s comments board, and are so funny they need to be reproduced:

The republicanspeak corporatist propaganda engines can weave their web of disinformation, distortion, and lie, and cite polls buttressing their spin and work to refract the seriousness of the many abuses of Bush and his obscenely rich and greedy corporatist cronies,- but the truth will not be silenced for long. There are far too many terrible questions yet to be answered. This is America. The people have a constitutionally protected right to dissent, to ask questions, and to demand answers from our supposed leadership. Bush and his imperialist cronies will be held accountable for their misdeeds. Unless this imposter and his clan of pathological liars has bin Laden’s head on a plate before the next election, – Bush can forget about stealing another presidency. The enormity and incestuousness of the republicanspeak corporatist machine and their web of lies, collusion, disinformation, and malfeasance is so thick and sticky; it will eventually smother them in their own filth. You can rely on polls and spin, – I will trust the truth.

Tony Foresta

The loon left his email over at Quick’s site. Feel free to email him and provide him with another opportunity to dissent. Just don’t dare ask him to tell you one right of yours that has been eroded within the last two years. He might melt down.
