Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

A democracy can’t function when people can’t distinguish facts from lies.

Sadly, there is no cure for stupid.

This has so much WTF written all over it that it is hard to comprehend.

Reality always lies in wait for … Democrats.

You don’t get rid of your umbrella while it’s still raining.

We cannot abandon the truth and remain a free nation.

A thin legal pretext to veneer over their personal religious and political desires

The willow is too close to the house.

Do not shrug your shoulders and accept the normalization of untruths.

Tick tock motherfuckers!

The GOP is a fucking disgrace.

… riddled with inexplicable and elementary errors of law and fact

No Justins, No Peace

Teach a man to fish, and he’ll sit in a boat all day drinking beer.

The worst democrat is better than the best republican.

Historically it was a little unusual for the president to be an incoherent babbling moron.

So it was an October Surprise A Day, like an Advent calendar but for crime.

The cruelty is the point; the law be damned.

I see no possible difficulties whatsoever with this fool-proof plan.

I did not have this on my fuck 2022 bingo card.

JFC, are there no editors left at that goddamn rag?

That’s my take and I am available for criticism at this time.

When do we start airlifting the women and children out of Texas?

We are aware of all internet traditions.

You can call me officially underwhelmed:

Microsoft on Monday gave its most detailed look yet at the next version of Windows, code-named “Longhorn,” which features new methods of storing files, a complete revamping of the graphics, tighter links to the Internet and greater security.

Stop giggling about the greater security part. Stop it now, I say.

    I’m left to wonder at what time Monday evening MSFT had to post the latest patch for download.

    Hopefully there will be a viable alternative to Windblows by then. “Lindows” is trying but still not there. Although they can’t really be any buggier than Windows, can they?

    Hey John maybe you could test out Longhorn on your new laptop purchased for you by your readers. How is that drive going? You know Atrios met his goal in a few hours.

    I already have my alternative; it is called Linux. I fire up my Windows drive ONLY to do work I take home from the office and even then, OpenOffice is doing the trick 90% or more of the time.
