Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

The arc of history bends toward the same old fuckery.

Joe Lieberman disappointingly reemerged to remind us that he’s still alive.

Only Democrats have agency, apparently.

Sadly, there is no cure for stupid.

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

This fight is for everything.

Do not shrug your shoulders and accept the normalization of untruths.

The worst democrat is better than the best republican.

We still have time to mess this up!

It’s a doggy dog world.

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.

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

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

Why is it so hard for them to condemn hate?

They traffic in fear. it is their only currency. if we are fearful, they are winning.

Let us savor the impending downfall of lawless scoundrels who richly deserve the trouble barreling their way.

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

Hi god, it’s us. Thanks a heap, you’re having a great week and it’s only Thursday!

Black Jesus loves a paper trail.

There are consequences to being an arrogant, sullen prick.

He wakes up lying, and he lies all day.

Another Suit Struck Down

Does anyone keep track of all the unsuccessful lawsuits filed against Presidents? It would be fun to see who had what filed against them. Here is another one against Bush that failed:

A federal judge on Wednesday dismissed a lawsuit filed by a former congressman alleging that President Bush violated the 1973 War Powers Act by attacking Iraq.

Former Rep. Clair Callan had no legal standing to file the court action and failed to show that he would be personally injured by Bush’s actions, U.S. District Judge Richard Kopf ruled.

Surely this legislator should have known he would have no legal standing. Congressman understand the laws they make, right?
