Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Russian mouthpiece, go fuck yourself.

I was promised a recession.

Pessimism assures that nothing of any importance will change.

Nothing worth doing is easy.

Republicans do not pay their debts.

No offense, but this thread hasn’t been about you for quite a while.

I did not have this on my fuck 2022 bingo card.

John Fetterman: Too Manly for Pennsylvania.  Paid for by the Oz for Senator campaign.

A snarling mass of vitriolic jackals

if you can’t see it, then you are useless in the fight to stop it.

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

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

Infrastructure week. at last.

The truth is, these are not very bright guys, and things got out of hand.

Republicans are radicals, not conservatives.

The willow is too close to the house.

This fight is for everything.

Anyone who bans teaching American history has no right to shape America’s future.

Historically it was a little unusual for the president to be an incoherent babbling moron.

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

A Senator Walker would also be an insult to reason, rationality, and decency.

After roe, women are no longer free.

Today’s GOP: why go just far enough when too far is right there?

It may be funny to you motherfucker, but it’s not funny to me.

Max Cleland, 19 August 2004:

You know, this is a great country, everybody has got a right to their opinion and to vote the way they want to vote. But why trash somebody’s record?

Terry McAullife, 2 February 2004:

“I look forward to that debate when Senator John Kerry, a war hero with a chest full of medals, is standing next to George Bush, a man who was AWOL in the Alabama National Guards.

You have your debate Terry- except Bush isn’t involved. Doesn’t seem like you like it that much anymore, you pompous windbag.

    “But WHY TRASH SOMEONE’S RECORD????”

    He’s asking this question on behalf of someone who got up in front of the Senate in 1971 and trashed the record of half a million soldiers?!

    You mistitled this post. The previous post was “Dumbest statement of the decade.” This one should be “Dumbest question of the decade.
