Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

… pundit janitors mopping up after the gop

You’re just a puppy masquerading as an old coot.

They were going to turn on one another at some point. It was inevitable.

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

DeSantis transforming Florida into 1930s Germany with gators and theme parks.

Republicans want to make it harder to vote and easier for them to cheat.

Let there be snark.

Is it negotiation when the other party actually wants to shoot the hostage?

President Musk and Trump are both poorly raised, coddled 8 year old boys.

The real work of an opposition party is to oppose.

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

I might just take the rest of the day off and do even more nothing than usual.

Compromise? There is no middle ground between a firefighter and an arsonist.

You cannot love your country only when you win.

The way to stop violence is to stop manufacturing the hatred that fuels it.

Stand up, dammit!

Books are my comfort food!

Russian mouthpiece, go fuck yourself.

I have other things to bitch about but those will have to wait.

“woke” is the new caravan.

That meeting sounds like a shotgun wedding between a shitshow and a clusterfuck.

So many bastards, so little time.

A fool as well as an oath-breaker.

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

I have added the VRWC, Inc to the blogroll. He is a friend of my blogson’s, Misha (and I know many of you hate him, but I am standing by him- I am a firm believer in letting all ideas out here, and Misha has been nothing but a DECENT and KIND human being to me), so hopefully, if you have time, you will stop by and give both Misha nd the VRWC a read.

BTW- I bet you if you ask Misha, he doesn’t agree with damn near anything I say- probably thinks I am too moderate or something. You know what, though? We give each other the latitude to be wrong and to have our own opinions. That is what the blogosphere is all about, isn’t it? Sure beats the hell out of car bombs, IMHO.

    Thanks, Blogdad.

    Besides, I DO agree with you most of the time. It’s just… You put it so… nicely ;)

    Well, at least you don’t have to pull your feet out of your mouth as often as I do.

    You added my site and I’m all over the place. Oh I’m a isolationist now so that really jumbles things. I really respect people who believe in letting all ideas fly. Never know when someone will say something so profound or shallow that it changes us all.

    How touching.

    Isn’t it sweet to see two rightwingers bond in their mutual admiration of Timothy McVeigh?

    There is no way in Hades that I can outdo that non sequitur, Jade, so I won’t even try.

    “Nuke Gaza and the West Bank and throw their offspring into the fire.

    I’ll bring the fucking marshmallows.” – Misha

    Well, as long as he’s nice to you, John, I guess he’s okay.
