Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

President Musk and Trump are both poorly raised, coddled 8 year old boys.

Prediction: the gop will rethink its strategy of boycotting future committees.

If you’re gonna whine, it’s time to resign!

“The difference between stupidity and genius is that genius has its limits.”

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Too often we confuse noise with substance. too often we confuse setbacks with defeat.

We can show the world that autocracy can be defeated.

When I was faster i was always behind.

An almost top 10,000 blog!

Humiliatingly small and eclipsed by the derision of millions.

Russian mouthpiece, go fuck yourself.

Fundamental belief of white supremacy: white people are presumed innocent, minorities are presumed guilty.

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

Many life forms that would benefit from greater intelligence, sadly, do not have it.

“woke” is the new caravan.

White supremacy is terrorism.

You come for women, you’re gonna get your ass kicked.

Sitting here in limbo waiting for the dice to roll

We will not go back.

Good lord, these people are nuts.

It’s pointless to bring up problems that can only be solved with a time machine.

It’s all just conspiracy shit beamed down from the mothership.

Putin must be throwing ketchup at the walls.

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

The Daily Cheap Shot

From CNN:

Falwell was admitted to Lynchburg General in “respiratory arrest.” Family members told Moore that Falwell had been unconscious from five to seven minutes and had to be resuscitated by EMTs at the hospital emergency room.

Moore said there is no evidence of neurological damage.

How can they tell?

    Way to drive the point home John! I guess we can call that a anticipatory strike!

    Who will carry on the 700 Club? Who will carry the torch and protect our children from the evils of Dungeons and Dragons?

    I have never been a big fan of Jerry Falwell. His post 9/11 comments cemented my disagree with his views on Christianity and the United States. I’m sure if and when he passes there will be quite a whirlwind of folks looking to either canonize him or villify him. Personally, I’ll see him as a political and social lobbyist whose influence was greatly exaggerated.

    Marco –
    Pat Robertson is the head of the 700 Club. Falwell is the founder of the Moral Majority organization.

    Or, Heaven forbid, the terror that an unchecked teletubbie will pose on our decent society.

    Uh, Marco? I realize religious white people all look alike, but The 700 Club is Pat Robertson and Falwell has the Old Time Gospel Hour.

    Both are however, equally silly, so that could be from where your confusion stems.

    Yep, that was a cheap shot all right.

    I hope Falwell recovers his health and strength. I have little use for his dubious contributions to political thought and discourse but don’t wish him illness or physical harm.

    I’m already going to hell for posting the Terri Schiavo blog, so I might as well laugh at this. :)
