Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

You don’t get to peddle hatred on saturday and offer condolences on sunday.

Battle won, war still ongoing.

Tick tock motherfuckers!

It’s easy to sit in safety and prescribe what other people should be doing.

Is it negotiation when the other party actually wants to shoot the hostage?

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

We cannot abandon the truth and remain a free nation.

Whoever he was, that guy was nuts.

Motto for the House: Flip 5 and lose none.

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

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

Optimism opens the door to great things.

Let’s finish the job.

The willow is too close to the house.

Black Jesus loves a paper trail.

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

Let me eat cake. The rest of you could stand to lose some weight, frankly.

“What are Republicans afraid of?” Everything.

It’s time for the GOP to dust off that post-2012 autopsy, completely ignore it, and light the party on fire again.

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

Hot air and ill-informed banter

Historically it was a little unusual for the president to be an incoherent babbling moron.

I’d hate to be the candidate who lost to this guy.

This blog will pay for itself.

Yes, John, Sometimes I Do Despair:

For many of us who lean to the right but are under the age of 50 and hence missed out on all the good segregation, homophobia, and bigotry of the past, attitudes like this do make us despair:

K-Lo: So DC’s first baby of the year was born to a lesbian couple. New York’s seems to have been to a black single mother. Don’t you sometimes feel like giving in to despair?

Thank you, Derbyshire, for being an unrepentant moron. Thank you for giving some jackass Democrat another opportunity to call all Republicans homophobes and bigots just because we belong to the same party as you. Damned moron.

Some of us out here, btw, Derb., think that maybe a loving father and mother is the best combination. But I will take a gay couple or lesbian couple or a loving single green mother over a dysfunctional family, or no family, or a family that raises children with your bigoted, prejudiced, busybody beliefs. I’ll take two good parents, male-male, female-female, black, white, red, yellow, or green, over your faux morality any day of the week, you ignorant piker.

Can’t keep liberals out of my wallet, can’t keep conservatives out of my bedroom.
