Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Second rate reporter says what?

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

The worst democrat is better than the best republican.

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

DeSantis transforms Florida into 1930s Germany with gators and theme parks.

Pessimism assures that nothing of any importance will change.

Putin dreamed of ending NATO, and now it’s Finnish-ed.

Republicans are the party of chaos and catastrophe.

Optimism opens the door to great things.

“And when the Committee says to “report your income,” that could mean anything!

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

Yeah, with this crowd one never knows.

I like you, you’re my kind of trouble.

Balloon Juice has never been a refuge for the linguistically delicate.

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

I know this must be bad for Joe Biden, I just don’t know how.

Accused of treason; bitches about the ratings. I am in awe.

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

The words do not have to be perfect.

Impressively dumb. Congratulations.

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

Is it negotiation when the other party actually wants to shoot the hostage?

I would pay to see these two in a deathmatch:

The Democratic Party’s official talk radio host got violent yesterday in an altercation he described as an effort to protect free speech.

Attending a Howard Dean rally in New Hampshire, unfunny funnyman Al Franken physically assaulted a heckler in the crowd, wrestling him to the ground in a bid to silence him.

“I got down low and took his legs out,” Franken boasted to the New York Post afterward.

The altercation was witnessed by NBC Washington bureau chief Tim Russert, who called Franken’s antics “unbelievable.”

“One of the Lyndon LaRouche guys got up and started screaming and yelling,” Russert told radioman Don Imus Tuesday morning.

“The press guy for Dean tried to grab onto him and remove him and he couldn’t do it. All of a sudden, Al Franken jumped out of the media gallery, ran down and grabbed this guy on the leg and started wrestling him to the ground.

“It was unbelievable. He was really into it,” the NBC News star said.

Franken vs. a LaRouchite!

I guess I would be forced to just root for injuries.

*** Update ***

Oh, Goodie! There is more to the story.

You know, I can’t help thinking that if Dennis Miller tackled a heckler at a Bush rally, it would take about 8 minutes before Dave Neiwer added another chapter to his ‘All Republicans are Fascistic’ tome. INstead, the left seems to be reacting to this with glee.

    I’m still trying to figure out how grabbing someone’s leg can be morphed into ‘body slamming’, as first reported in the NYP.

    I don’t understand your comparison.

    Of course the left likes it.

    If Dennis Miller had tackled a heckler at a Bush rally, as you imply, the right would love it just as much.
