Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

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

FFS people, this was a good thing. take the win.

Thanks to your bullshit, we are now under siege.

Baby steps, because the Republican Party is full of angry babies.

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

It’s a doggy dog world.

Even though I know this is a bad idea, I’m off to do it anyway!

Ron DeSantis, the grand wizard, oops, governor of FL.

Republicans choose power over democracy, every day.

Donald Trump, welcome to your everything, everywhere, all at once.

Black Jesus loves a paper trail.

I’m just a talker, trying to find a channel!

We’ll be taking my thoughts and prayers to the ballot box.

This blog will pay for itself.

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

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

No offense, but this thread hasn’t been about you for quite a while.

Today’s gop: why go just far enough when too far is right there?

The choice is between normal and crazy.

No one could have predicted…

There are more Russians standing up to Putin than Republicans.

At some point, the ability to learn is a factor of character, not IQ.

A lot of Dems talk about what the media tells them to talk about. Not helpful.

In after Baud. Damn.

Changes in process. If things seem screwy, bear with us.

*** Updates ***

Change #1- Look to the right. If you want links to open in a new browser window, click the box. Otherwise, don’t, I guess.

Change #2- Comments now have a toolbar, including bold, italics, hyperlinking, etc. Please report any problems.

Change #3- Blockquotes are now indented, the background is lighter, and the font of blockquotes is 1pt smaller.

    The Dictionary button looks up “null” if you click cancel on the dialogue box. Other than that, looks good.

    You should put a disclaimer up telling people not to open this thread if they have been drinking Scotch. I’d hate for Stormy to think she may have a problem.

    Great. You deleted the comments that gave my comment context.

    The posting routine does not work for me, no matter which browser I use. I’m a WinXP SP2 user, if anyone is keeping score.

    The behavior is not new, though. It’s been there for quite a long time.

    ppgaz,

    Ya, I expect I’ll be working on that at some point, but as long as comments can get posted, it’s a lower-order priority.

    Sounds good! I’ll stop complaining. About this, I mean.

    Use Firefox. When I post, it states that the post was disallowed, as a control measure to contain multiple posting in the heat of the moment… anti-flaming as it were. It says to wait, then retry later. Which I have done. To no avail. I gave up a couple of times. Unable to post.

    Or so I thought. Now I see that those posts I thought were not posted, were actually posted, some of them two or more times, as I tried to post them a few times, (Wiating, as instructed. ) but kept getting the “your comment was not posted” notice, try again in a little while” notice.

    Just letting you know.

    The post above was submitted once, got a 404. Went back, hit post again and got the following notice:

    Comment Submission Error
    Your comment submission failed for the following reasons:

    In an effort to curb malicious comment posting by abusive users, I’ve enabled a feature that requires a weblog commenter to wait a short amount of time before being able to post again. Please try to post your comment again in a short while. Thanks for your patience.

    Please correct the error in the form below, then press POST to post your comment.

    And, it appears twice.

    Been at the company picnic, hot as hell, and no beer!
    Scotch drinking will commence shortly.
    This concludes my posting test.

    I would like to see the font of blockquotes the same size as the rest of the text.

    I find it hard to read.

    I think your comment count is way up because of the larger font. Its my theory anyway
