Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Not all heroes wear capes.

If West Virginia and San Francisco had a love child.

If you’re pissed about Biden’s speech, he was talking about you.

Republican speaker of the house Mike Johnson is the bland and smiling face of evil.

Technically true, but collectively nonsense

The rest of the comments were smacking Boebert like she was a piñata.

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

Republican obstruction dressed up as bipartisanship. Again.

Red lights blinking on democracy’s dashboard

He really is that stupid.

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

This really is a full service blog.

And now I have baud making fun of me. this day can’t get worse.

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

Let there be snark.

“Everybody’s entitled to be an idiot.”

Ah, the different things are different argument.

It’s a new day. Light all those Biden polls of young people on fire and throw away the ashes.

The arc of the moral universe doesn’t bend itself. it’s up to us.

It’s a doggy dog world.

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

The words do not have to be perfect.

Please don’t feed the bears.

Republicans are radicals, not conservatives.

The New Instapundit

Eric at Classical Values points us to this article in the Philadelphia Inquirer discussing the new Instapundit:

Glenn Simpson, a Tennessee law professor who runs the conservative Instapundit blog, wrote recently: “The Republicans’ weakness is that people worry that they’re the party of Jerry Falwell and Pat Robertson. They tried, successfully, to convince people otherwise in the last election, but they’re now acting in ways that are giving those fears new life.”

To borrow a phrase, “Heh.”

And read Eric’s entire piece.

    Apparently the multiple layers of fact checkers at the Philadelphia Inquirer think Glenn Reynolds’ last name is Simpson.

    Or is that a joke to which I’m not privy?

    “…They tried, successfully, to convince people otherwise in the last election, but they’re now acting in ways that are giving those fears new life.”

    That’s a teleological argument, if I’m not mistaken; that the nature of a thing is found in its end result. Thus the premise that the GOP won the elections works backward to the conclusion that “people” were convinced.

    Gee, that means that the “premise” that the GOP LOST the elections would work backward to the conclusion that “people” were NOT convinced. I think I get it now.

    I’m not privy to the Inky’s inside jokes, so I don’t know what’s up with the Simpson business.

    The “T” word leads to mistakes . . .

    The debate over theocracy is heating up — and not just in the blogosphere. It’s reached the point where the Philadelphia Inquirer’s Dick Polman now puts it on the front page of the Sunday paper, in a column titled “Right…
