Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

I’m pretty sure there’s only one Jack Smith.

Let me eat cake. The rest of you could stand to lose some weight, frankly.

We are builders in a constant struggle with destroyers. let’s win this.

Thanks to your bullshit, we are now under siege.

Optimism opens the door to great things.

Republicans in disarray!

This really is a full service blog.

All your base are belong to Tunch.

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

Pessimism assures that nothing of any importance will change.

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

A last alliance of elves and men. also pet photos.

We are aware of all internet traditions.

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

Accountability, motherfuckers.

Sitting here in limbo waiting for the dice to roll

rich, arrogant assholes who equate luck with genius

Some judge needs to shut this circus down soon.

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

The GOP couldn’t organize an orgy in a whorehouse with a fist full of 50s.

The republican caucus is already covering themselves with something, and it’s not glory.

You can’t love your country only when you win.

They’re not red states to be hated; they are voter suppression states to be fixed.

Not all heroes wear capes.

The conclusion they want you to come to here is just dumb:

A woman collapsed in an East Wichita theatre this morning, during a showing of “The Passion Of The Christ”. The woman, in her 50’s, was pronounced dead a short time later at a Wichita medical center.

People viewing the movie at the Warren Theatre East say the woman collapsed during the portion of the movie where the crucifixion of Christ was shown. Nurses who were in the audience gave the woman CPR.

All I have to say is post hoc ergo propter hoc.

    Same thing with the reports of that church with the sign attacking Jews… You’re supposed to think it says “Thanks Mel Gibson, before your movie came out, we loved Jews, now we hate ’em.”

    An unexpected death – and expected reaction.

    While I agree with John Cole that this article draws an incorrect conclusion from a tragic event – it’s about that poor woman who died of a heart attack while watching Gibson’s new film – I’m actually surprised that John
