Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Pessimism assures that nothing of any importance will change.

The republican ‘Pastor’ of the House is an odious authoritarian little creep.

I like political parties that aren’t owned by foreign adversaries.

Incompetence, fear, or corruption? why not all three?

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

Republicans do not pay their debts.

Usually wrong but never in doubt

If you thought you’d already seen people saying the stupidest things possible on the internet, prepare yourselves.

People really shouldn’t expect the government to help after they watched the GOP drown it in a bathtub.

Well, whatever it is, it’s better than being a Republican.

You cannot shame the shameless.

Of course you can have champagne before noon. That’s why orange juice was invented.

“A king is only a king if we bow down.” – Rev. William Barber

Just because you believe it, that does not make it true.

Republicans firmly believe having an abortion is a very personal, very private decision between a woman and J.D. Vance.

Do not shrug your shoulders and accept the normalization of untruths.

“When somebody takes the time to draw up a playbook, they’re gonna use it.”

The lights are all blinking red.

There are no moderate republicans – only extremists and cowards.

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

If you tweet it in all caps, that makes it true!

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

Some judge needs to shut this circus down soon.

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

Liar

This post is in: Democratic Stupidity

John Kerry has repeatedly made the following claim:

Thanks to some friends in New York, I was invited to come up and meet with the Security Council in the week prior to the vote, and I wanted to do that, because I valued my vote. And I wanted to know what the real readiness and willingness of our partners was to take this seriously.

So I sat with the French and British, Germans, with the entire Security Council, and we spent a couple of hours talking about what they saw as the path to a united front in order to be able to deal with Saddam Hussein.

he says so to legitimize himself and to attack the President. Except, of course, despite repeating this statement hundreds of times, it is a flat-out LIE. More here.
