Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

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

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

You’re just a puppy masquerading as an old coot.

Impressively dumb. Congratulations.

The real work of an opposition party is to hold the people in power accountable.

rich, arrogant assholes who equate luck with genius

Stand up, dammit!

Too often we confuse noise with substance. too often we confuse setbacks with defeat.

Give the craziest people you know everything they want and hope they don’t ask for more? Great plan.

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

After dobbs, women are no longer free.

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

Giving in to doom is how we fail to fight for ourselves & one another.

Stay strong, because they are weak.

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

Jack Smith: “Why did you start campaigning in the middle of my investigation?!”

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

In after Baud. Damn.

The desire to stay informed is directly at odds with the need to not be constantly enraged.

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

This is dead girl, live boy, a goat, two wetsuits and a dildo territory.  oh, and pink furry handcuffs.

A norm that restrains only one side really is not a norm – it is a trap.

Seems like a complicated subject, have you tried yelling at it?

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

This is the only thing Dennis Kucinich may win this election.

Gina Marie Santore of Garden County, N.J., and Democratic presidential hopeful Rep. Dennis Kucinich (D-Ohio) talk about their date in Concord, N.H., Thursday, Dec. 11, 2003. Santore has been flown to New Hampshire to have a date with Kucinich after a candidates forum earlier this year where Kucinich said he is still looking for a first lady. The New Jersey woman beat out about 80 other contenders for a date with the twice-divorced Ohio congressman in a contest on a political Web site. (AP Photo/Jim Cole)

It is like the Dating Game but icky.

    She said Kucinich’s ideas were “intoxicating.”

    Yeah, dope is like that.

    I know this will sound mean, but, doesn’t she look a little manish?

    Maybe just a bad pic, but I’m definitely getting a “guy in a dress” vibe.

    Or, you know, she’s transgender. Which is, you know, cool.

    Hey, I say we cut the woman some slack. She’s clearly taking on Dennis as a charity case. (cough cough)

    No, my housemate is TS and I’ve roomed with her long enough to know what to look for. I’m pretty sure that’s a genetic female.

    Well, the fact she had a boyfriend and he seems to be “not pleased” about this tells me Dennis is looking for trouble..heh

    In all seriousness, I would cut the woman some slack. Drudge had a post apparently showing her very large-figured and she went through some surgery and I think she has improved her appearance a lot. Of course, her choice in men remains something to be desired…

    First, it was Senator Palpatine.

    Now, how come you never see Kucinich and Kevin Spacey together in public?

    She’s 34? Looks more like 44 to me…

    When she said Dennis’ ideas were “intoxicating”, I think she meant “I was intoxicated when I heard his ideas”.

    The only bad thing about Kucinich leaving the national scene is that he will retreat back to Cleveland.

    I’m glad I’m not the only one who thinks that woman is ugly.

    I swear, I’d walk past 3 of her to get to a sheep.

    Now I gotta go wash my eyes out with boric acid.
