Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

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

Lick the third rail, it tastes like chocolate!

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

There are times when telling just part of the truth is effectively a lie.

You cannot love your country only when you win.

🎶 Those boots were made for mockin’ 🎵

“Facilitate” is an active verb, not a weasel word.

There are some who say that there are too many strawmen arguments on this blog.

They fucked up the fucking up of the fuckup!

How stupid are these people?

Accused of treason; bitches about the ratings. I am in awe.

Whoever he was, that guy was nuts.

Our job is not to persuade republicans but to defeat them.

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

When I decide to be condescending, you won’t have to dream up a fantasy about it.

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

The real work of an opposition party is to oppose.

Also, are you sure you want people to rate your comments?

Technically true, but collectively nonsense

There are more Russians standing up to Putin than Republicans.

We are builders in a constant struggle with destroyers. keep building.

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

Michigan is a great lesson for Dems everywhere: when you have power…use it!

Republicans: slavery is when you own me. freedom is when I own you.

Congrats, BoSox

I would be remiss if I failed to congratulate the Boston Red Sox and their long suffering fans. You earned it.

So fitting, though- I wash my hands of the Sox, and they win eight games in a row.

This is a ind of macabre thought, but I wonder if there will be a stiff incline in the number of elderly deaths in Boston over the next six months?

    It’s a great time to be a Boston sports fan! I’ve waited my whole
    life for this moment. The curse has officially been reversed! After
    86 years of drought, the Red Sox have finally, FINALLY, reclaimed the
    World Series. And they broke numerous records along the way: First
    and only baseball team to come back from an 0-3 deficit to win a
    championship…against the Yankees no less! (Too bad, so sad for all
    you Yankees fans out there…you know who you are. And to think you
    were only 3 outs away from eliminating the Red Sox altogether.) First
    team to win 8 postseason games in a row. First team to sweep the
    World Series without ever trailing, not even once. Seeing Johnny
    Pesky’s eyes light up as he held the World Series trophy was one of
    the most heartwarming things I’ve ever seen.

    Plus we have a football dynasty in the making with the Patriots who
    are also breaking NFL records along the way: 21 wins in a row and
    counting. (Too bad, so sad for all you NY Giants fans out there…you
    know who you are. How does it feel to see Belichick on the Patriots
    sideline?)

    Now if we could only get the Celtics to play like they did back in the
    ’80s when Bird, McHale, and Parrish pounded the parquet to complete
    the trifecta.

    If anyone needs me, I’ll be on Cloud 9 toasting that lovable bunch of
    idiots. Go Sox!
