Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

They want us to be overwhelmed and exhausted. Focus. Resist. Oppose.

Relentless negativity is not a sign that you are more realistic.

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

This chaos was totally avoidable.

Everybody saw this coming.

Republicans do not trust women.

“woke” is the new caravan.

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

The party of Reagan has become the party of Putin.

I would try pessimism, but it probably wouldn’t work.

Dumb motherfuckers cannot understand a consequence that most 4 year olds have fully sorted out.

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

Perhaps you mistook them for somebody who gives a damn.

Something needs to be done about our bogus SCOTUS.

Republicans got rid of McCarthy. Democrats chose not to save him.

Disappointing to see gov. newsom with his finger to the wind.

Jesus watching the most hateful people claiming to be his followers

GOP baffled that ‘we don’t care if you die’ is not a winning slogan.

The words do not have to be perfect.

If you still can’t see these things even now, maybe politics isn’t your forte and you should stop writing about it.

The Supreme Court cannot be allowed to become the ultimate, unaccountable arbiter of everything.

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

Why is it so hard for them to condemn hate?

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

Better Than Comedy Central One

Better Than Comedy Central

One of the reasons I love MSNBC is the great comedy they provide. Whether it be Rick Sanchez’s bizarre and childish gesticulations and facial expressions, or Ashleigh Banfield’s (aka the Bimbo Broadcaster) utter inability to ask a coherent question, they have great polls every day like today’s:

“Does the D.C. Sniper scare you?”

Tomorrow’s question- “Are you a carbon-based life form?”

Also, MSNBC is now covering the story behind the story- is the press helping or hurting the sniper investigation? Is there another profession with the same amount of institutional narcissism (other than politics)?
