Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

And we’re all out of bubblegum.

Insiders who complain to politico: please report to the white house office of shut the fuck up.

You don’t get to peddle hatred on saturday and offer condolences on sunday.

If you are still in the GOP, you are an extremist.

if you can’t see it, then you are useless in the fight to stop it.

I’ve spoken to my cat about this, but it doesn’t seem to do any good.

Why did Dr. Oz lose? well, according to the exit polls, it’s because Fetterman won.

Putting aside our relentless self-interest because the moral imperative is crystal clear.

In my day, never was longer.

Nancy smash is sick of your bullshit.

Republicans don’t want a speaker to lead them; they want a hostage.

It’s the corruption, stupid.

Sitting here in limbo waiting for the dice to roll

Fuck these fucking interesting times.

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

Second rate reporter says what?

Teach a man to fish, and he’ll sit in a boat all day drinking beer.

That’s my take and I am available for criticism at this time.

The party of Reagan has become the party of Putin.

🎶 Those boots were made for mockin’ 🎵

Reality always lies in wait for … Democrats.

John Fetterman: Too Manly for Pennsylvania.  Paid for by the Oz for Senator campaign.

Sadly, there is no cure for stupid.

Within six months Twitter will be fully self-driving.

Death by Dial-Up

After three years of Hi-Speed internet access both at home and at work, let me tell you that dialing into the internet at 56k is just bloody awful. I am dog-sitting at my folks, and there is no Hi-Speed access here. Only two more weeks…
