Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

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

Shallow, uninformed, and lacking identity

“What are Republicans afraid of?” Everything.

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

Sitting here in limbo waiting for the dice to roll

People are complicated. Love is not.

Speaking of republicans, is there a way for a political party to declare intellectual bankruptcy?

Fuck these fucking interesting times.

If senate republicans had any shame, they’d die of it.

My years-long effort to drive family and friends away has really paid off this year.

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

Teach a man to fish, and he’ll sit in a boat all day drinking beer.

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

Nothing worth doing is easy.

Putin must be throwing ketchup at the walls.

And we’re all out of bubblegum.

Putting aside our relentless self-interest because the moral imperative is crystal clear.

Thanks to your bullshit, we are now under siege.

This fight is for everything.

Insiders who complain to politico: please report to the white house office of shut the fuck up.

The cruelty is the point; the law be damned.

Everybody saw this coming.

They’re not red states to be hated; they are voter suppression states to be fixed.

A democracy can’t function when people can’t distinguish facts from lies.

    A well-deserved rest. I don’t always agree (ie: Moore), but I think the blog is great. Came over during the Schaiavo affair, and I plan on sticking around.

    I too came here during the Schiavo fiasco and found your blog. Your comments are a breath of fresh air from the typical rantings of the right. Wish there were more voices like yours on both sides of the aisle.

    I find your blog to be a very intelligent airing of the views on both sides. Tabloid thinking is exactly what is wrong with the political discussions of both parties. We need thoughtful debate followed by constructive solutions, not ideological hogwash.
