Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

New McCarthy, same old McCarthyism.

Wow, I can’t imagine what it was like to comment in morse code.

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

It may be funny to you motherfucker, but it’s not funny to me.

Schmidt just says fuck it, opens a tea shop.

An almost top 10,000 blog!

Shallow, uninformed, and lacking identity

Make the republican party small enough to drown in a bathtub.

Peak wingnut was a lie.

It’s easy to sit in safety and prescribe what other people should be doing.

“Everybody’s entitled to be an idiot.”

Putin must be throwing ketchup at the walls.

“Jesus paying for the sins of everyone is an insult to those who paid for their own sins.”

Hot air and ill-informed banter

Black Jesus loves a paper trail.

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

Pessimism assures that nothing of any importance will change.

Bark louder, little dog.

Just because you believe it, that doesn’t make it true.

The arc of history bends toward the same old fuckery.

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

I didn’t have alien invasion on my 2023 BINGO card.

Why is it so hard for them to condemn hate?

But frankly mr. cole, I’ll be happier when you get back to telling us to go fuck ourselves.

    I know the feeling. Have a good time off.

    I’d buy you a beer, but you’re a little far away, I think.

    Come back soon.

    I found a website that provides button to format comments. The new TPM (Talking Points Memo) Cafe is set up with buttons.

    Josh Marhall may be able to help you out.

    I’ll include a link that shows the buttons, but it may not work if you have not joined.

    Just get you some of that Turkey Hill icecream and I’m sure you’ll feel better.

    Thanks, Nancy.

    SCS- I actually did a grocery run last night and Turkey Hill was on sale.

    So were Jones popsicles.
