Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

🎶 Those boots were made for mockin’ 🎵

Hey hey, RFK, how many kids did you kill today?

They punch you in the face and then start crying because their fist hurts.

One way or another, he’s a liar.

Republicans are the party of chaos and catastrophe.

The republican ‘Pastor’ of the House is an odious authoritarian little creep.

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

Black Jesus loves a paper trail.

Quote tweet friends, screenshot enemies.

You come for women, you’re gonna get your ass kicked.

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

Shut up, hissy kitty!

Those who are easily outraged are easily manipulated.

If you still can’t see these things even now, maybe politics isn’t your forte and you should stop writing about it.

You cannot love your country only when you win.

Everybody saw this coming.

Polls are now a reliable indicator of what corporate Republicans want us to think.

If you voted for Trump, you don’t get to speak about ethics, morals, or rule of law.

There are times when telling just part of the truth is effectively a lie.

I’m more christian than these people and i’m an atheist.

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

If you’re gonna whine, it’s time to resign!

No one could have predicted…

Trumpflation is an intolerable hardship for every American, and it’s Trump’s fault.

Drudge is reporting that Rush Limbaugh is involved in some ‘prescription drug’ scandal. This could be entertaining.

Here is the story.

    His his hearing degraded over the course of at least a year or two until he was deaf. He did his show that way for a little while, with the help of computers and an amazing will, even though his voice was a little off (no better way to describe it).

    He had some sort of device implanted about a year ago which returned some hearing ability… he talks about it on his show from time to time.

    I’ve heard rummors that certain perscription drugs, used incorrectly, can cause hearing loss. That’s just what I’ve heard.

    A liberal friend of mine has gone deaf in one ear from something called Menieres Syndrome, which she says is the same problem Limbaugh has. She added that she’d be willing to go deaf in the other ear if it would get Limbaugh off the airwaves.

    Judging from his sports commentary, Limbaugh is taking something that distorts judgment, not hearing.

    He’s resigned from ESPN and what he ought to do is work any problems he has out and return to the airwaves after that. If the allegations are true, I feel pity for him.

    I’ll wait till it’s someone other than the National Enquirer breaking this one.
    Though it will be entertaining, if it’s true. I’ll just adore watching the right wing defending a drug addict…

    Yeah, Kathy, it’ll be as much fun as watching the left wing defend a law-breaking sex addict.

    I wouldn’t call Ted Kennedy a sex addict, myself.

    Wonder if Rush’ll say “the bitch set me up”?

    It’s always fun to watch people who supposedly believe something is eeeevil defending one on ‘their side’ when he/she does that something. No matter which side they are on.

    “…when he/she does that something.”

    Yep, since it’s in the Enquirer we’re all SURE he’s “done that something.” I might wait to see some more “facts” from a slightly more reputable source.

    Andrew, are you serious? You really know woman who claims she would forsake her sense of hearing just to remove from the airwaves a radio commentator she finds distasteful?

    I’d much rather change the channel. Or just not tune in in the first place. In fact, I do that with Rush everytime he’s on. I think I’ve heard a total of five minutes of Limbaugh in my life, and paid attention to much less.
