Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

This fight is for everything.

Within six months Twitter will be fully self-driving.

Disagreements are healthy; personal attacks are not.

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

Let’s delete this post and never speak of this again.

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

“Everybody’s entitled to be an idiot.”

I’d hate to be the candidate who lost to this guy.

And now I have baud making fun of me. this day can’t get worse.

This chaos was totally avoidable.

If rights aren’t universal, they are privilege, not rights.

Innocent people do not delay justice.

We know you aren’t a Democrat but since you seem confused let me help you.

I’d like to think you all would remain faithful to me if i ever tried to have some of you killed.

Our job is not to persuade republicans but to defeat them.

With all due respect and assumptions of good faith, please fuck off into the sun.

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

When you’re in more danger from the IDF than from Russian shelling, that’s really bad.

Whoever he was, that guy was nuts.

Sadly, media malpractice has become standard practice.

If you can’t control your emotions, someone else will.

Not all heroes wear capes.

Every one of the “Roberts Six” lied to get on the court.

Republicans don’t lie to be believed, they lie to be repeated.

Gator Bound

At least we have this good sports news:

The No. 24 Mountaineers (8-4, 6-1) wrapped up a share of WVU’s first Big East conference championship in a decade with a 45-28 victory over the mistake-prone Owls (1-11, 0-7) and can now turn their full attention to preparing for a New Year’s Day rematch with Maryland in the Gator Bowl.

“Although the BCS will not let us officially invite West Virginia to our bowl,” Gator Bowl selection committee chair Susan Hamilton told the media afterwards, “I’m looking forward to seeing all of the WVU players and their wonderful fans in Jacksonville on New Year’s Day.”

The official invitation can’t be extended until the BCS releases WVU from consideration for the Big East’s BCS bowl spot.

That release could come as soon as today following No. 10 Miami’s win over No. 24 Pitt Saturday night.

While WVU and Miami will be listed as co-champions of the Big East with identical 6-1 league marks, the Hurricanes will get the league’s BCS berth thanks to their regular-season win over the Mountaineers.

Regardless, West Virginia coaches and officials left no doubt they were looking forward to welcoming the New Year in Jacksonville.

“Let me say right now,” said WVU president Dr. David Hardesty with a smile, “that we graciously accept your generous non-invitation and are looking forward to bringing a very good football team and a lot of fans to the Gator Bowl on Jan. 1.”

There is a good chance I might be spending New Years in Jacksonville.
