Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

The Supreme Court cannot be allowed to become the ultimate, unaccountable arbiter of everything.

Wake up. Grow up. Get in the fight.

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

It may be funny to you motherfucker, but it’s not funny to me.

This isn’t Democrats spending madly. This is government catching up.

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

Oppose, oppose, oppose. do not congratulate. this is not business as usual.

All hail the time of the bunny!

The revolution will be supervised.

Never give a known liar the benefit of the doubt.

Giving in to doom is how authoritarians win.

Radicalized white males who support Trump are pitching a tent in the abyss.

“Perhaps I should have considered other options.” (head-desk)

We are aware of all internet traditions.

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

“Loving your country does not mean lying about its history.”

Of course you can have champagne before noon. That’s why orange juice was invented.

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

We cannot abandon the truth and remain a free nation.

Do we throw up our hands or do we roll up our sleeves? (hint, door #2)

No offense, but this thread hasn’t been about you for quite a while.

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

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

Republicans seem to think life begins at the candlelight dinner the night before.

The Leader of the Pack

This is hysterical:

It may come as a surprise to some of his supporters, but Democratic Presidential candidate Wesley K. Clark still hasn’t joined the Democratic Party. According to the Pulaski County (Ark.) Voter Registrar’s office, the former four-star general remains a registered independent. Even though he has been a declared candidate for the Dem nomination for two weeks now, he has yet to officially change his party affiliation.

A Clark campaign spokesman at first told BusinessWeek that the former general had in fact updated his voter registration to reflect his newfound status as a Democrat. But a call to the Pulaski County Voter Registrar indicated otherwise. When asked to explain the discrepancy, campaign consultant Mark Fabiani says Clark hadn’t yet had time to register as a Democrat.

Nine lifelong Democrats are trailing in the polls for the Democrat nomination to a registered independent. Snicker. All together, now:

“I am the very model of a modern major general…”

    Ol’ Wesley is looking less like Ike and more like Admiral Stockdale (minus the sincerity and aura of tragedy) every day:

    “Who am I? What am I doing here?”
