Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Everybody saw this coming.

They fucked up the fucking up of the fuckup!

Republicans seem to think life begins at the candlelight dinner the night before.

Schmidt just says fuck it, opens a tea shop.

Eh, that’s media spin. biden’s health is fine and he’s doing a good job.

This blog will pay for itself.

Meanwhile over at truth Social, the former president is busy confessing to crimes.

Thanks to your bullshit, we are now under siege.

Let’s delete this post and never speak of this again.

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

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

This fight is for everything.

A dilettante blog from the great progressive state of West Virginia.

Nancy smash is sick of your bullshit.

Red lights blinking on democracy’s dashboard

Something needs to be done about our bogus SCOTUS.

Republicans do not pay their debts.

Sitting here in limbo waiting for the dice to roll

JFC, are there no editors left at that goddamn rag?

If you are still in the GOP, you are an extremist.

Black Jesus loves a paper trail.

Second rate reporter says what?

Motto for the House: Flip 5 and lose none.

All your base are belong to Tunch.

As far as the Schiavo affair goes, this is not the dumbest nor the most offensive sentiment expressed, but it sure does deserve a response:

Whatever you think of the case and whatever anybody thinks about Congress is doing

    How about offering links for some of these? In particular, how do you know that certain parts of her brain simply do not exist? That info could only come from a CAT scan. If a bunch of neurologists agree that that was insufficient, what is your grounds for saying otherwise?

    And how do you know that there was no abuse?

    And you’re welcome to take on some questions I asked on my blog – http://nowatermelons.blogspot.com/2005_03_20_nowatermelons_archive.html#111136184051733818

    That’s rich. You have repeatedly in the comments sections of other posts on this sight villified Michael Schiavo, accused him of abuse, accused him of profit motive, etc, and now you want me to provide you with links of this behavior.

    My stomache hurts from laughing.

    As far as abuse, it is not up to me to prove a negative. I can’t also disprove that Terry Schaivo was a pedophile- therefore she must have been!!!

    You can actually see a screen cap of a CBS news report where they showed a normal brain on the left and Terri’s brain on the right here.

    I left the time in the cap if you would like to see it for yourself. You can watch it here.

    I’d like to point out that it wouldn’t matter if someone did order a fMRI, John: none of the leeches involved would believe the results anyway. The posted CT scans are irrefutable: there’s nothing there, and an MRI will show the exact same thing.

    But that doesn’t matter to the leeches: lots of face time on TV does.

    It’s not very often that I can say this but, I completely agree with you. 100%. This woman is gone. I am thoroughly disgusted with the right-to-lifers and Tom DeLay.

    If the woman is gone, who cares if the parents feed her or the husband emaciates her?

    She won’t.

    Frankly I think purosefully dessicating someone is something we don’t even do to criminals or animals. Here’s my idea… if she’s gonna be offed, let’s give a lethal injection or slit her wrists or throat. That’s a lot faster and less painful than the current plan.
