Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Republicans do not trust women.

Not loving this new fraud based economy.

You’re just a puppy masquerading as an old coot.

Tide comes in. Tide goes out. You can’t explain that.

“Perhaps I should have considered other options.” (head-desk)

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

Trump should be leading, not lying.

One lie, alone, tears the fabric of reality.

Hey Washington Post, “Democracy Dies in Darkness” was supposed to be a warning, not a mission statement.

The fundamental promise of conservatism all over the world is a return to an idealized past that never existed.

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

Since when do we limit our critiques to things we could do better ourselves?

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

“Loving your country does not mean lying about its history.”

Republicans choose power over democracy, every day.

You come for women, you’re gonna get your ass kicked.

New McCarthy, same old McCarthyism.

Proof that we need a blogger ethics panel.

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

Their shamelessness is their super power.

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

The party of Reagan has become the party of Putin.

People are complicated. Love is not.

If America since Jan 2025 hasn’t broken your heart, you haven’t loved her enough.

Dennis Miller

If you are going to try to be bitter, biting, and funny in an op-ed, while taunting your opponent, this is how you do it. Go read Dennis Miller take on Norman Mailer.

With six marriages under his belt, one would assume Mr. Mailer has a stranglehold on warfare. One would be wrong.

and this gem:

Ironically, Mr. Mailer seems to see everything in the world in terms of black and white, except of course, good and evil.

or this:

And as Mr. Mailer’s prostate gradually supplants his ego as the largest gland in his body, he’s going to have to realize, as is the case with all young lions who inevitably morph into Bert Lahr, that his alleged profundities are now being perceived as the early predictors of dementia.

Good clean fun.

    I love Dennis. The older he gets, the more conservative he gets. The more conservative he gets, the sexier he is. One day, John, he may even rival you!

    Dennis ought to consider the verbal-flaying-and-rolling-in-salt bit as a hobby. I know I would enjoy it a great deal.
