Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

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

Someone should tell Republicans that violence is the last refuge of the incompetent, or possibly the first.

The lights are all blinking red.

the 10% who apparently lack object permanence

… pundit janitors mopping up after the gop

Never give a known liar the benefit of the doubt.

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

Imperialist aggressors must be defeated, or the whole world loses.

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

This really is a full service blog.

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

A snarling mass of vitriolic jackals

I am pretty sure these ‘journalists’ were not always such a bootlicking sycophants.

They spent the last eight months firing professionals and replacing them with ideologues.

Relentless negativity is not a sign that you are more realistic.

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

The rest of the comments were smacking Boebert like she was a piñata.

Let me eat cake. The rest of you could stand to lose some weight, frankly.

Balloon Juice, where there is always someone who will say you’re doing it wrong.

People are weird.

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

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

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

Thanks to your bullshit, we are now under siege.

Where Have They Gone

The last post by Scott Ott reminds me of the glory days of Will Warren, who used to be the poet of the blogosphere. Here is one of my favorites (which my mother claims is the funniest thing she has ever read):

Merci for Not Expiring

If you want to skip a jailing
when your body takes to ailing
And the doctor starts to shake his head and sigh,
Just don
