Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Black Jesus loves a paper trail.

Sitting here in limbo waiting for the dice to roll

Everybody saw this coming.

A last alliance of elves and men. also pet photos.

Presidents are not kings, and Plaintiff is not President.

Too often we hand the biggest microphones to the cynics and the critics who delight in declaring failure.

You can’t love your country only when you win.

I really should read my own blog.

A dilettante blog from the great progressive state of West Virginia.

If you’re pissed about Biden’s speech, he was talking about you.

They’re not red states to be hated; they are voter suppression states to be fixed.

Whoever he was, that guy was nuts.

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

Their freedom requires your slavery.

We are builders in a constant struggle with destroyers. let’s win this.

Why is it so hard for them to condemn hate?

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

“Jesus paying for the sins of everyone is an insult to those who paid for their own sins.”

I did not have telepathic declassification on my 2022 bingo card.

Let there be snark.

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

Damn right I heard that as a threat.

“Everybody’s entitled to be an idiot.”

Accountability, motherfuckers.

Sometimes the nerve of these

Sometimes the nerve of these people is just amazing.

Priests have been molesting alter boys across the country, and while the Catholic League and William Donohoe have been feigning ire and running cover for their church, the rest of the nation has been outraged.

On the other hand, a married couple engages in consensual sex in a cathedral, and Donohoe has an aneurysm. Yes, it was in bad taste. Yes, there are laws against it. There are also laws against pedophilia.

Let’s tie this all up. A married couple has sex in a church and two ‘shock jocks’ get fired.

Priests and the church hierarchy engage in a 30 year pattern of dabbling in buggery with unsuspecting children, lying to the authorities, bribing the victims into silence, and Bernard Law still has a job.

I got it now.
