Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Anyone who bans teaching American history has no right to shape America’s future.

Usually wrong but never in doubt

Black Jesus loves a paper trail.

Republicans don’t want a speaker to lead them; they want a hostage.

If you are still in the GOP, you are an extremist.

Proof that we need a blogger ethics panel.

Just because you believe it, that doesn’t make it true.

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Consistently wrong since 2002

Is it irresponsible to speculate? It is irresponsible not to.

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

An almost top 10,000 blog!

Let’s delete this post and never speak of this again.

Tick tock motherfuckers!

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

The worst democrat is better than the best republican.

They fucked up the fucking up of the fuckup!

Second rate reporter says what?

Russian mouthpiece, go fuck yourself.

In my day, never was longer.

Sitting here in limbo waiting for the dice to roll

John Fetterman: Too Manly for Pennsylvania.  Paid for by the Oz for Senator campaign.

I did not have this on my fuck 2022 bingo card.

Authoritarian republicans are opposed to freedom for the rest of us.

Who in the World are

Who in the World are Ted Glick and Liz Macron?

Engaging in politics with Democrats is a lot like playing Hide-N-Seek with little children. If you have ever played the game with a young child, one of the funny aspects of their immaturity and inborn self-centered thought processes is how they just do not get the game. They think if they do not see you, you can’t see them, and just like that they are hidden. I have seen little kids stand behind a pole, with a shoulder sticking out on each side, but because their eyes are blocked and they can not see me, they think they are hidden. Kinda cute, when you are dealing with wee ones. Maddening when you are dealing with adult Democrats.

To complete the analogy, they think if they can fool themselves into believing what they are doing is right and just, well, then, it just must be so. Who cares if it is legal- we have friends in the court and know a LOT of trial lawyers. The most recent line is that evil mean Republicans are trying to deny the voters a choice. I heard it on the radio earlier, and Sully now has the links up.

If it were not so annoying, it would be funny. Democrats nominate a crook, and then when it is clear he can not win, he withdraws. Because he has withdrawn so late, by law it is too late to put a new candidate on the ballot. Thus, evil mean Republicans are denying us a vote. Watch them say it with straight faces- just like the little kid in the game, they can’t see us, or the truth, so they think they are winning.

All of which brings me back to Ted Glick and Liz Macron, and why they are relevant. If you do not know who they are, click on the links and go meet them- they are Green Party and Libertarian Party Candidates for the U.S. Senate in the year 2002. In New Jersey, no less. I can not verify if they are on the ballot, as I could not find a sample ballot anywhere, but I called the numbers on the websites, and I got answering machines that announced they were indeed campaign HQ’s. Maybe they will be able to respond via email tomorrow.

So now the Democrats are lying about not having a choice for New Jersey voters, but voters do have a choice. It just is not the one Tom Daschle and Terry McAuliffe want. New Jersey voters can vote for the Democrat, Robert Toricelli and piss their vote away on a corrupt politico with a persecution complex, they can vote for Mr. Forrester, the Republican candidate, or they can vote for Mr. Glick or Ms. Macron.

That is four choices, which is about three more than I have every couple of years here in West Virginia when Senators Rockefeller and Byrd run generally unopposed. So what the Donks really want is for all three of the candidates who played by the rules to be punished by creative law making in the New Jersey Supreme Court, and you just know they will do anything to get their way. They still think they were cheated in 2000, so this is their payback. How long before they drag the ‘disenfranchisement’ mantra out of the closet and ram that down our throats again? How long before Rev. Jesse whips up the overt racism?

Although I want the rule of law to win, I am kinda hoping the Dems manage to manipulate this and the Hawaii scandal to a win. The backlash will be tremendous and so terribly delicious to witness.

Who knows what will happen. But voters in New Jersey do have a choice. It’s just that the Democrats don’t care- that is their seat, damnit, by hook or by crook.
