Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

I’ve spoken to my cat about this, but it doesn’t seem to do any good.

“That’s what the insurrection act is for!”

When do the post office & the dmv weigh in on the wuhan virus?

Let’s finish the job.

We are aware of all internet traditions.

The worst democrat is better than the best republican.

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

Stop using mental illness to avoid talking about armed white supremacy.

Black Jesus loves a paper trail.

Imperialist aggressors must be defeated, or the whole world loses.

This blog will pay for itself.

Just because you believe it, that doesn’t make it true.

New McCarthy, same old McCarthyism.

Come on, media. you have one job. start doing it.

“woke” is the new caravan.

“What are Republicans afraid of?” Everything.

White supremacy is terrorism.

The poor and middle-class pay taxes, the rich pay accountants, the wealthy pay politicians.

Nothing worth doing is easy.

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

Sadly, there is no cure for stupid.

Within six months Twitter will be fully self-driving.

When someone says they “love freedom”, rest assured they don’t mean yours.

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

When Will They Learn?

Every year, during the SOTU address, the cameras zoom in on some member of the opposition party who looks like they are about to explode with rage. Last year, it was Hillary. This year, it was Teddy Kennedy. In years past, Republicans have done the same damn thing when Clinton was speaking, so don’t think this is some sort of partisan pot-shot. Don’t these people realize how awful this looks on camera?

BTW- Vodkapundit is SOTU-blogging live.

    I call your one second after the SOTU and point this out (I know, I know–no one needed it pointed out) and can’t even get a blurb on the site? What’s up with that?

    Umm. Check what time I wrote this, what time the SOTU address was, when you called, and get back to me, hero.

    I am humbled. I should’ve kept my politically handicapped, feeble minded thoughts to myself.

    As I watched Bush deliver his State of the Union Address, I couldn’t help but notice how agitated Ted Kennedy was as he sat there listening to it.&nbsp He kept shaking his head back and forth, looking like he could…
