Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

“Can i answer the question? No you can not!”

Hot air and ill-informed banter

Pessimism assures that nothing of any importance will change.

Good lord, these people are nuts.

White supremacy is terrorism.

T R E 4 5 O N

This really is a full service blog.

I see no possible difficulties whatsoever with this fool-proof plan.

I didn’t have alien invasion on my 2023 BINGO card.

There is no compromise when it comes to body autonomy. You either have it or you don’t.

… among the most cringeworthy communications in the history of the alphabet!

Republicans in disarray!

Jack be nimble, jack be quick, hurry up and indict this prick.

We cannot abandon the truth and remain a free nation.

The GOP is a fucking disgrace.

Is it irresponsible to speculate? It is irresponsible not to.

The party of Reagan has become the party of Putin.

Take your GOP plan out of the witness protection program.

Optimism opens the door to great things.

This fight is for everything.

This year has been the longest three days of putin’s life.

Motto for the House: Flip 5 and lose none.

The worst democrat is better than the best republican.

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

Quote of The Day

by John Cole|  June 9, 20045:17 am| 16 Comments

This post is in: General Stupidity

FacebookTweetEmail

Who said the following:

“Still, I’m not a knee-jerk left-wing guy,” ******************** said. “I am an advocate of the Second Amendment; I don’t believe in abortion as birth control; and I was the first to call for Clinton’s impeachment. I think that this country has shifted so far over to the right that anyone who is a garden-variety Democrat circa 1972 is painted as a Marxist-Leninist.”

    Ahhh…Rall is a self-styled centrist? Pull the other one.

    Why are we even wasting our time on such a little man?

    What Rall and his idealogical bedfellows mistakenly label as a right shift of the country is in fact a left shift within their own ranks – the garden-variety Democrat circa 1972 is viewed, by Rall and his ilk, as conservative.

    He’s right….the Dem. party has shifted WAYYYYYY over to the left. The garden variety Dem today is basically a marxist, they just don’t have the guts to admit it

    Yup, as everybody has said for the last 3 years, JF Kennedy was more conservative than Bush.

    I second Mark’s question. Why bother with such a little, hateful man?

    A garden variety Dem today is a Marxist? As in moving towards the workers owning the means of production and all that?

    Could you please point out one average Democrat who is advocating this? Link?

    This is complete nonsense. Both parties have moved closer to the middle.

    Ted Rall is a fascinating specimen, from a purely psychological standpoint.

    Ted Rall’s biggest constituency is “outraged” conservatives.

    Only fitting, Oliver. Anne Coulter’s is “outraged” liberals.

    After his invective against Pat Tillman, I couldn’t care less about Rall’s comments on anything.

    “Only fitting, Oliver. Anne Coulter’s is “outraged” liberals.”

    Are you high?

    Dean

    June 10, 2004 at 2:27 pm

    No more than Oliver.

    What, Kimmitt, conservatives are responsible for *both* Rall *and* Coulter?

    Gee, you guys really are just saints, aren’t you? One wonders how you get by, w/ all them unwashed conservatives mucking up both ends of the political spectrum….

    *snicker*

    Yes, my bookshelves are positively groaning under the weight of the books by Coulter, Limbaugh, and Hannity. Maybe stouter ones, made from illegally imported rain forest mahogany, would do the trick.

    Neither are mine. By your reasoning, therefore, Ann Coulter has sold no books.
