Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

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

They don’t have outfits that big. nor codpieces that small.

if you can’t see it, then you are useless in the fight to stop it.

Stamping your little feets and demanding that they see how important you are? Not working anymore.

Following reporting rules is only for the little people, apparently.

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

Today in our ongoing national embarrassment…

People really shouldn’t expect the government to help after they watched the GOP drown it in a bathtub.

Be a wild strawberry.

One of our two political parties is a cult whose leader admires Vladimir Putin.

“Alexa, change the president.”

There are no moderate republicans – only extremists and cowards.

Take hopelessness and turn it into resilience.

Balloon Juice, where there is always someone who will say you’re doing it wrong.

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

Today’s gop: why go just far enough when too far is right there?

Since we are repeating ourselves, let me just say fuck that.

Trumpflation is an intolerable hardship for every American, and it’s Trump’s fault.

People are complicated. Love is not.

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

Since when do we limit our critiques to things we could do better ourselves?

There are more Russians standing up to Putin than Republicans.

They are lying in pursuit of an agenda.

My years-long effort to drive family and friends away has really paid off this year.

Dead Man Talking

Apparently I am not the only one who was left utterly unmoved and unimpressed by Lott’s performance on BET.

President Bush will not intervene to rescue Senate Republican leader Trent Lott from a leadership struggle brought on by his remarks seen as endorsing racial segregation, Bush administration officials said on Tuesday.

The decision basically left the Mississippi Republican isolated in his struggle to hold on to power. He would be Senate majority leader when Republicans take control of the Senate in January.

Why should he? Any way you look at it, if I were President Bush, I would want Lott dead. And since when is Lott totally, across the board, in favor of affirmative action?
