Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

This blog will pay for itself.

Technically true, but collectively nonsense

They love authoritarianism, but only when they get to be the authoritarians.

Incompetence, fear, or corruption? why not all three?

Everything is totally normal and fine!!!

The truth is, these are not very bright guys, and things got out of hand.

Dear Washington Post, you are the darkness now.

Why is it so hard for them to condemn hate?

People are weird.

I did not have this on my fuck 2025 bingo card.

Wow, you are pre-disappointed. How surprising.

The gop is a fucking disgrace.

If you are still in the gop, you are either an extremist yourself, or in bed with those who are.

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

Democracy cannot function without a free press.

’Where will you hide, Roberts, the laws all being flat?’

A norm that restrains only one side really is not a norm – it is a trap.

Wake up. Grow up. Get in the fight.

Books are my comfort food!

Their boy Ron is an empty plastic cup that will never know pudding.

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

Not all heroes wear capes.

Let’s not be the monsters we hate.

This has so much WTF written all over it that it is hard to comprehend.

Tour de Frog

It looks like Lance Armstrong is going to win his 5th Tour de France, but this is the most amazing part of the race this year:

When the ceremonial 20th stage ends on Sunday, Alexandre Vinokourov, a Kazakh with Telekom, will be third, 4:29 behind. Fourth will be Tyler Hamilton, the American leader of CSC, who has been riding for three weeks with a double fracture of his right collarbone.

Hamilton finished second today, nine seconds behind Millar on the course from Pornic on the Atlantic inland to Nantes, one of the six stops in the first Tour in 1903. His performance vaulted Hamilton from sixth place to fourth over all.

With a BROKEN COLLARBONE.
