Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Being the leader of the world means to be the leader of peace.

Republicans do not pay their debts.

Shallow, uninformed, and lacking identity

Wow, you are pre-disappointed. How surprising.

Thanks to your bullshit, we are now under siege.

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

We are builders in a constant struggle with destroyers. let’s win this.

Republicans are radicals, not conservatives.

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

I see no possible difficulties whatsoever with this fool-proof plan.

You can’t love your country only when you win.

All your base are belong to Tunch.

Eh, that’s media spin. biden’s health is fine and he’s doing a good job.

Reality always lies in wait for … Democrats.

They fucked up the fucking up of the fuckup!

I was promised a recession.

New McCarthy, same old McCarthyism.

Battle won, war still ongoing.

A dilettante blog from the great progressive state of West Virginia.

Impressively dumb. Congratulations.

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

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

But frankly mr. cole, I’ll be happier when you get back to telling us to go fuck ourselves.

Tick tock motherfuckers!

Boycott Pep Boys

I can’t believe this happened:

Automotive supply chain Pep Boys fired a Tucson store manager because his military Reserve duties took him away from work, according to a federal lawsuit filed here.
It may not be an isolated case. Several other reservists fired from Pep Boys in Tucson and Pennsylvania have contacted a military advocacy group with similar complaints.

    I’m reminded of…

    My dad moved from the North to Washington, DC in 1950. DC was then a Jim Crow city, and I asked him if it hadn’t bothered him. He said once: when he was eating in a Hot Shoppes restaurant (that was the first Marriott chain, like Denny’s but nicer) and they turned away a black customer in military uniform. This was during the Korean War.

    What I find most telling about the story is that my dad was an opponent of and a conscientious objector from that war.

    Pep Boys should be ashamed, and their lawyers will set them straight.
