Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Books are my comfort food!

In my day, never was longer.

Republicans choose power over democracy, every day.

One of our two political parties is a cult whose leader admires Vladimir Putin.

Fear or fury? The choice is ours.

There are consequences to being an arrogant, sullen prick.

“I was told there would be no fact checking.”

If you can’t control your emotions, someone else will.

Sometimes the world just tells you your cat is here.

“In the future, this lab will be a museum. do not touch it.”

Disappointing to see gov. newsom with his finger to the wind.

Of course you can have champagne before noon. That’s why orange juice was invented.

Michigan is a great lesson for Dems everywhere: when you have power…use it!

He really is that stupid.

I am pretty sure these ‘journalists’ were not always such a bootlicking sycophants.

The words do not have to be perfect.

How any woman could possibly vote for this smug smarmy piece of misogynistic crap is beyond understanding.

Yeah, with this crowd one never knows.

Black Jesus loves a paper trail.

The low info voters probably won’t even notice or remember by their next lap around the goldfish bowl.

Just because you believe it, that does not make it true.

I don’t recall signing up for living in a dystopian sci-fi novel.

No Kings: Americans standing in the way of bad history saying “Oh, Fuck No!”

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

Another positive Batman review, this time from Oliver. While Oliver and I rarely agree on policy, we almost always agree on stuff like this. Guess I have to go to see Batman tomorrow.

    Check and see if you have an IMAX theater anywhere nearby. I saw it on IMAX last week…it was absolutely AMAZING. Christian Bale is a hot sexy scrumptious great actor…and….imho….the BEST Batman yet.

    Hope you enjoy him it! ;)

    Over it – no need to cross out the most important part of your Batman post. Bale is muy- Meow hot.

    The movie is awesome, and Bale is the best Batman. My husband loved it, if you would like a review untainted by Bale drool.
    The cast were all awesome.

    See it, see it, see it. It’s prolly the last movie coming out this Summer that’s worth seeing (WAR OF THE WORLDS looks good, but I don’t want my money being used to fund scientology… then again, Tom’s prolly making Katie give all the proceeds she gets from BATMAN BEGINS to scientology too… can we please make an exception in the First Amendment for scientologists?… OK, way off topic now… but yes, it’s a good movie.)

    And while I’m off-topic, have I mentioned how much fun it is to see the Yankees truly suck for the first time since the ’80s? Now they’re starting Womack in center and have a quadruple-A player starting in left.

    My favorite teams in baseball are the Pirates and whoever is beating the Yankees.

    And you all better duck and cover. When Jay Caruso reads this there is going to be hell to pay.

    About the Yankees, or scientology? Both of them are wack, so it doesn’t really matter…

    What?! You haven’t seen it yet?! For shame! Nolan didn’t just make a good Batman movie, he made a good movie period.

    I’d be more interested in Oliver’s review of a Superman movie; more his area of expertise.

    No, Gotham isn’t worth saving. It’s no Metropolis.
