Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Live so that if you miss a day of work people aren’t hoping you’re dead.

The unpunished coup was a training exercise.

One of our two political parties is a cult whose leader admires Vladimir Putin.

We can’t confuse what’s necessary to win elections with the policies that we want to implement when we do.

The “burn-it-down” people are good with that until they become part of the kindling.

The fundamental promise of conservatism all over the world is a return to an idealized past that never existed.

Weird. Rome has an American Pope and America has a Russian President.

Disagreements are healthy; personal attacks are not.

Many life forms that would benefit from greater intelligence, sadly, do not have it.

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

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 shame the shameless.

Tide comes in. Tide goes out. You can’t explain that.

Anyone who bans teaching American history has no right to shape America’s future.

Proof that we need a blogger ethics panel.

Wake up. Grow up. Get in the fight.

A snarling mass of vitriolic jackals

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

Since when do we limit our critiques to things we could do better ourselves?

You can’t attract Republican voters. You can only out organize them.

Sometimes the world just tells you your cat is here.

When I decide to be condescending, you won’t have to dream up a fantasy about it.

Republicans do not trust women.

Why is it so hard for them to condemn hate?

Israel

More blood has been spilled in the Israeli/Palestine issue:

A large explosion ripped apart a vehicle in a United States diplomatic convoy in the Gaza Strip this morning, killing three Americans and injuring one in what appeared to be the first direct attack on an American target since the Palestinian uprising started more than three years ago.

The convoy had passed through the Erez Crossing, which connects Israel with the Palestinian-ruled Strip, and was traveling on the outskirts of the Palestinian town of Beit Lahiya when the explosion took place. It appeared to be caused by a remote controlled roadside bomb. Israeli and American investigators went to the scene afterwards.

Maybe this will wake some people up (State Department, please) that the PLO, the Palestinian Authority, whatever you want to call it, is nothing more than a tightly knit association of garden-variety terrorists, led by a known terrorist, Arafat.

At any rate, I wonder how long it is before some nut claims that the Mossad really caused this explosion in an attempt to make this administration and the American people more pro-Israel.

    The Commissar is impressed with your sagacious and wise conclusion that the Zionist running dog spies are surely behind this.
