Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Give the craziest people you know everything they want and hope they don’t ask for more? Great plan.

The willow is too close to the house.

Sadly, media malpractice has become standard practice.

Putin must be throwing ketchup at the walls.

Tick tock motherfuckers!

“The difference between stupidity and genius is that genius has its limits.”

At some point, the ability to learn is a factor of character, not IQ.

Make the republican party small enough to drown in a bathtub.

Republicans choose power over democracy, every day.

Giving up is unforgivable.

Let’s bury these fuckers at the polls 2 years from now.

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

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

Trump should be leading, not lying.

If senate republicans had any shame, they’d die of it.

So many bastards, so little time.

I see no possible difficulties whatsoever with this fool-proof plan.

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

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

The fundamental promise of conservatism all over the world is a return to an idealized past that never existed.

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

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

Petty moves from a petty man.

It’s easy to sit in safety and prescribe what other people should be doing.

The other day I compared

The other day I compared Farrakhan with Mugabe. Maybe I was not that far off. Look at this quote from Farrakhan from the Reparations Rally this past weekend:

The rally got its most energetic jolt just before 2 p.m. when Minister Louis Farrakhan, head of the Nation of Islam, gave a short speech on the need to use the money responsibly, if reparations are ever approved.

“We cannot settle for some little jive token,” he told the crowd. “We need millions of acres of land that black people can build.”

Louis Farrakhan. America’s Mugabe.

For more on the reparation nonsense, go check out the Politburo’s outstanding coverage and sound bites.
