Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

I would gladly pay you tuesday for a hamburger today.

If ‘weird’ was the finish line, they ran through the tape and kept running.

We do not need to pander to people who do not like what we stand for.

Dear media: perhaps we ought to let Donald Trump speak for himself!

Museums are not America’s attic for its racist shit.

“The difference between stupidity and genius is that genius has its limits.”

Damn right I heard that as a threat.

“In this country American means white. everybody else has to hyphenate.”

These are not very smart people, and things got out of hand.

They traffic in fear. it is their only currency. if we are fearful, they are winning.

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

Jesus, Mary, & Joseph how is that election even close?

Republicans: “Abortion is murder but you can take a bus to get one.” Easy peasy.

If senate republicans had any shame, they’d die of it.

These days, even the boring Republicans are nuts.

Everything is totally normal and fine!!!

You are so fucked. Still, I wish you the best of luck.

If a good thing happens for a bad reason, it’s still a good thing.

Many life forms that would benefit from greater intelligence, sadly, do not have it.

Why is it so hard for them to condemn hate?

Be a wild strawberry.

Never entrust democracy to any process that requires Republicans to act in good faith.

No Kings: Americans standing in the way of bad history saying “Oh, Fuck No!”

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

Regarding the non-controversies ginned up by the media regarding Justices Scalia and GInsburg, I don’t think I could have said it any better than the Calpundit. In fact, I am willing to be I wouldn’t have, and ten people would have flamed me in the comments for trying. Such is life.

Ezra has some fair points, as well.

    It’s too bad his comment section is so rabid…

    I wish he’d at least attempt to reign them around to his moderate (-ly worded) post words.

    Is there ever a post on this site that mentions Calpundit that doesn’t also eventually mention his rabid commenters?

    Really, who cares? I read his site frequently but never the comments. Perhaps if you find them so offensive, you should just stop reading them.
