Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

People are complicated. Love is not.

Their freedom requires your slavery.

Happy indictment week to all who celebrate!

Is it irresponsible to speculate? It is irresponsible not to.

Take your GOP plan out of the witness protection program.

Schmidt just says fuck it, opens a tea shop.

Jesus, Mary, & Joseph how is that election even close?

Make the republican party small enough to drown in a bathtub.

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

Let there be snark.

No offense, but this thread hasn’t been about you for quite a while.

Some judge needs to shut this circus down soon.

Accused of treason; bitches about the ratings. I am in awe.

Why is it so hard for them to condemn hate?

The worst democrat is better than the best republican.

So it was an October Surprise A Day, like an Advent calendar but for crime.

Take hopelessness and turn it into resilience.

White supremacy is terrorism.

The GOP couldn’t organize an orgy in a whorehouse with a fist full of 50s.

Tick tock motherfuckers!

Balloon Juice has never been a refuge for the linguistically delicate.

… pundit janitors mopping up after the GOP

Whoever he was, that guy was nuts.

This really is a full service blog.

Jerks

With all the talk about Hillary Clinton, I should point out that immature, childish, jerk-like behavior is not limited to Democrats:

Idaho Sen. Larry Craig cleared the way for the Senate to approve the promotions of 127 Air Force captains and majors, but will continue to stall promotions of higher-ranking officers in a showdown over planes for the Air National Guard in his state.

Relenting to requests from the White House, Craig’s staff processed paperwork releasing the 127 nominees Wednesday night and they were scheduled for a Senate vote Thursday, said Will Hart, a spokesman for the Idaho Republican.

“Senator Craig is still reserving his right on the rest of these holds until we are able to come to a conclusion,” Hart said.

What a total asshole.

    Sad to see, I know he has been pretty reliable supporting Second Amendment rights. Hopefully this is a momentary brain fart and he pulls his head out of his ass. Or Idaho elects someone better.
