Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

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

Be a traveling stable for those who can’t find room at the inn.

Stamping your little feets and demanding that they see how important you are? Not working anymore.

Take hopelessness and turn it into resilience.

Wake up. Grow up. Get in the fight.

Seems like a complicated subject, have you tried yelling at it?

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

Why is it so hard for them to condemn hate?

Republicans want to make it harder to vote and easier for them to cheat.

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

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

Wow, you are pre-disappointed. How surprising.

Second rate reporter says what?

Happy indictment week to all who celebrate!

You can’t attract Republican voters. You can only out organize them.

You can’t love your country only when you win.

We’ve had enough carrots to last a lifetime. break out the sticks.

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

The line between political reporting and fan fiction continues to blur.

Motto for the House: Flip 5 and lose none.

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

Only Democrats have agency, apparently.

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

The revolution will be supervised.

I looked at what I wrote this morning alone, and because of the layout, it scrolls forever. I am going to try to start using the extended entry bit. Tell me if that works out ok for you all…

*** Update ***

I just did the dumbest damn thing ever.

*** Update ***

OK. No more extended entries. It is a pain in the ass for me and for everyone else.

    You deleted some posts, didn’t you? Gawd, I hate it when that happens.

    Got backup?

    I nearly killed myself posting all that stuff this morning. Now noone will know of my posting genius. Fascist!

    John – it is probably a good thing that those posts were “disappeared”, since it was early in the morning. Plus, I have family coming in and a trip to New Mexico to get ready for. I don’t have time to straighten all you people out. LOL. See you next week, try not to burn the blog down.

    Yeah- well, this was *special* for even me.

    I had MT Blacklist open in one window to delete trackback spams in between good trackbacks and another MT open to condense all my posts under extended entries. Meanwhile, I was on the phone arguing with the Parking Ticket office, and I must have crossed wires, because I went through and checked the delete boxes next to the posts I wanted to edit rather than the trackback spams in the other window, and in my infifinte wisdom, deleted a number of posts.

    I really dont even know how many.. 7-10, I would guess, and 200 or so comments.

    This is up there for even me.

    Personally, I don’t care for the extended entry stuff and have no qualms about scrolling down further.

    btw, john, did you know the comments to the fetal stomp story are down?

    Message:

    An error occurred:

    Invalid entry ID ‘5331’

    Did you notice that the entire fetal stomp story is not there? And the piece on the White House jiggering environmental data? And a LONG piece on Governor Manchin?

    And I can’t remember what else…

    I believe it was Sartre who said:

    “D’oh!”

    Keep the scrolling. Don’t use extended entry. Please.

    I’d note that I quite liked the Manchin piece, but that would just get me another nose-meet-keester slap from the site’s PC police.

    Forget I said it.

    Extended okay, scrolling better. It’s an opinion. (Another nod to the PC police.)
