Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Whatever happens next week, the fight doesn’t end.

Republicans firmly believe having an abortion is a very personal, very private decision between a woman and J.D. Vance.

A sufficient plurality of insane, greedy people can tank any democratic system ever devised, apparently.

“I was told there would be no fact checking.”

One way or another, he’s a liar.

Republicans: “Abortion is murder but you can take a bus to get one.” Easy peasy.

“But what about the lurkers?”

Celebrate the fucking wins.

With all due respect and assumptions of good faith, please fuck off into the sun.

Conservatism: there are people the law protects but does not bind and others who the law binds but does not protect.

Let the trolls come, and then ignore them. that’s the worst thing you can do to a troll.

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

You cannot love your country only when you win.

This year has been the longest three days of putin’s life.

… gradually, and then suddenly.

Every decision we make has lots of baggage with it, known or unknown.

Damn right I heard that as a threat.

Is trump is trying to break black America over his knee? signs point to ‘yes’.

Putin must be throwing ketchup at the walls.

Good lord, these people are nuts.

Accountability, motherfuckers.

Fear and negativity are contagious, but so is courage!

Polls are now a reliable indicator of what corporate Republicans want us to think.

We do not need to pander to people who do not like what we stand for.

Edwards Delivers

This will help John Edwards campaign coffers:

The U.S. Senate voted 49-48 to deny President George W. Bush another victory on health-care policy by blocking legislation to limit medical malpractice lawsuits and jury awards to injured patients.

Doctors, nursing homes, health plans such as Aetna Inc. and hospital owners such as Health Management Associates Inc. support the bill, saying it will lower premiums charged by malpractice insurers such as FPIC Insurance Group Inc. and ProAssurance Corp.

“A lot of these are frivolous lawsuits,” said Senator John Ensign, a Nevada Republican. “In our legislation, we are trying to bring some balance back to the system.”

I expect Edwards will surge forward in the fundraising race this quarter, particularly when you consider the shady manner in which his campaign funds have been raised to date.
