Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

The cruelty is the point; the law be damned.

Many life forms that would benefit from greater intelligence, sadly, do not have it.

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

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

Not loving this new fraud based economy.

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

I swear, each month of 2025 will have its own history degree.

Teach a man to fish, and he’ll sit in a boat all day drinking beer.

If you can’t control your emotions, someone else will.

Usually wrong but never in doubt

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

Republicans: “Abortion is murder but you can take a bus to get one.” Easy peasy.

We know you aren’t a Democrat but since you seem confused let me help you.

Our messy unity will be our strength.

Polls are now a reliable indicator of what corporate Republicans want us to think.

Welcome to day five of every-bit-as-bad-as-you-thought-it-would-be.

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

We need to vote them all out and restore sane Democratic government.

Wow, you are pre-disappointed. How surprising.

We can’t confuse what’s necessary to win elections with the policies that we want to implement when we do.

A norm that restrains only one side really is not a norm – it is a trap.

You know it’s bad when the Project 2025 people have to create training videos on “How To Be Normal”.

Bad people in a position to do bad things will do bad things because they are bad people. End of story.

I did not have this on my fuck 2025 bingo card.

After reading Juan Gato’s ‘Fisking’

After reading Juan Gato’s ‘Fisking’ of Maureen Dowd (next post down), I decided we need to revisit the greatest thrashing ever to be meted out by any member of the blogosphere. Once more, from the Protein Wisdom archives dating back to January 5th, I present an encore performance of Anne D. Coughman’s Let’s Rall!

Go read it again. I dare you. And keep drinks away from your keyboard.
