Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Washington Post Catch and Kill, not noticeably better than the Enquirer’s.

You cannot shame the shameless.

Jack be nimble, jack be quick, hurry up and indict this prick.

… pundit janitors mopping up after the gop

Petty moves from a petty man.

T R E 4 5 O N

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

Insiders who complain to politico: please report to the white house office of shut the fuck up.

She burned that motherfucker down, and I am so here for it. Thank you, Caroline Kennedy.

This must be what justice looks like, not vengeful, just peaceful exuberance.

Trump should be leading, not lying.

Compromise? There is no middle ground between a firefighter and an arsonist.

Do we throw up our hands or do we roll up our sleeves? (hint, door #2)

We cannot abandon the truth and remain a free nation.

Usually wrong but never in doubt

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

The republican speaker is a slippery little devil.

Republican also-rans: four mules fighting over a turnip.

Everything is totally normal and fine!!!

Not loving this new fraud based economy.

Every reporter and pundit should have to declare if they ever vacationed with a billionaire.

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

The republican ‘Pastor’ of the House is an odious authoritarian little creep.

Never entrust democracy to any process that requires republicans to act in good faith.

Freedom From Criticism

by John Cole|  January 30, 200310:29 am| 1 Comment

This post is in: General Stupidity

FacebookTweetEmail

Mean Mr. Mustard explains a thing or two to Susan Sarandon:

Once again, all together now, so all of Hollywood can hear: Freedom of speech does not mean freedom from criticism. You can talk all you want to Susan, but keep in mind, your continued offering of pathetic little platitudes that equate the deliberate killing of thousands of innocents with the careful efforts to hunt down and destroy their killers will likely mean getting branded with words a lot worse than “anti-American.”

“Brain-dead twit,” comes to mind, for example.

Go read the whole thing.

    Ms. Sarandon’s new movie must be such a turkey that she is desperate for publicity.

    I notice that Tim Robbins, her significant other and noted son of 1960s’ militant, long haired, hippy, pinko freaks (and activist in his own right), hasn’t had too much to say. He must not have a movie out that needs pumping up.

    I must say that she is getting very close to being a prime candidate for the “Jane Fonda’s War Protestor Award.” All that is required is a trip to Baghdad during a bombing halt and man an anti-aircraft gun mount as a photo-op.

    I wonder if we could get a hit this time before she has a chance to run away like Ms. Fonda did from Hanoi when she was dared, by the F-111 wing Commander at Takhli, Thailand, to stay and man the same gun? She, Fonda, obviously couldn’t stand the heat and ran like the coward she is. I wonder how Ms. Sarandon would stand up under the same pressure?

    BTW: That gun was taken out the night following the dare. The Wing Commander, himself, dropped a 500 pounder on it. (This, in Air Force parlance, is known as a “shack.”)
