Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

When do we start airlifting the women and children out of Texas?

It is possible to do the right thing without the promise of a cookie.

Well, whatever it is, it’s better than being a Republican.

Hi god, it’s us. Thanks a heap, you’re having a great week and it’s only Thursday!

fuckem (in honor of the late great efgoldman)

I’m pretty sure there’s only one Jack Smith.

Balloon Juice, where there is always someone who will say you’re doing it wrong.

Israel is using food as a weapon of war. Unforgivable.

Boeing: repeatedly making the case for high speed rail.

Impressively dumb. Congratulations.

In my day, never was longer.

If you still can’t see these things even now, maybe politics isn’t your forte and you should stop writing about it.

I did not have this on my fuck 2022 bingo card.

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

Yeah, with this crowd one never knows.

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

Innocent people don’t delay justice.

We still have time to mess this up!

Never entrust democracy to any process that requires republicans to act in good faith.

The new republican ‘Pastor’ of the House is an odious authoritarian little creep.

This really is a full service blog.

Technically true, but collectively nonsense

🎶 Those boots were made for mockin’ 🎵

The choice is between normal and crazy.

The Conservative Movement ‘Grows’

This is too damned rich:

Blond porn star, political candidate. And now you can add one more line to Mary Carey’s resume: Republican booster.

Carey was in Washington Tuesday to attend the President’s Dinner, an annual fundraiser put on by the National Republican Congressional Committee and the National Republican Senatorial Committee.

A few hours before the dinner, Carey met with reporters to show off her evening gown and talk about a Republican lunch she and her boss, adult film executive Mark Kulkis, attended.

“I met a lot of nice people,” Carey said of the lunch, where presidential adviser Karl Rove spoke. “I met some people who talked about helping me with donating money to my next campaign.”

She plans to run for lieutenant governor of California next year as an independent. But her trip to Washington has swayed Carey’s political leanings. She says she’s been a Republican “for a couple of days.”

Phillis Schlafly probably just went out back and shot herself.

    No doubt that she saw the yogurt picture of Dick Cheney and was hoping to “run in” to him ;-)

    If Phyllis Schlafly can handle having a gay son, she can manage Mary Carey. (Maybe she’s part of a planned “cure”?!)
