Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Every one of the “Roberts Six” lied to get on the court.

The next time the wall street journal editorial board speaks the truth will be the first.

You cannot love your country only when you win.

“The defense has a certain level of trust in defendant that the government does not.”

Decision time: keep arguing about the last election, or try to win the next one?

Shallow, uninformed, and lacking identity

Petty moves from a petty man.

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

The lights are all blinking red.

Good lord, these people are nuts.

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

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

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

That’s my take and I am available for criticism at this time.

Speaking of republicans, is there a way for a political party to declare intellectual bankruptcy?

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

It is possible to do the right thing without the promise of a cookie.

Let me file that under fuck it.

The way to stop violence is to stop manufacturing the hatred that fuels it.

Sometimes the world just tells you your cat is here.

You would normally have to try pretty hard to self-incriminate this badly.

🎶 Those boots were made for mockin’ 🎵

Baby steps, because the Republican Party is full of angry babies.

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

I graded close to 100 papers today, all while having my cat try to knock the pen out of my hand. That is why there were so many posts from me- after reading about five student papers, I have to take a break and read the web, just so I don’t forget how written English is supposed to look. At any rate, time for some Jimmy Kimmel Live with cohost of the week DON KING!
