Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Speaking of republicans, is there a way for a political party to declare intellectual bankruptcy?

Following reporting rules is only for the little people, apparently.

“Why isn’t this Snickers bar only a nickel?”

Let me file that under fuck it.

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

Chutkan laughs. Lauro sits back down.

I really should read my own blog.

I’m more Christian than these people and I’m an atheist.

“But what about the lurkers?”

Not so fun when the rabbit gets the gun, is it?

The republican caucus is covering themselves with something, and it’s not glory.

Come on, man.

Accused of treason; bitches about the ratings. I am in awe.

Give the craziest people you know everything they want and hope they don’t ask for more? Great plan.

Nothing worth doing is easy.

When the time comes to make an endorsement, the pain of NYT editors will be palpable as they reluctantly whisper “Biden.”

Perhaps you mistook them for somebody who gives a damn.

I was promised a recession.

GOP baffled that ‘we don’t care if you die’ is not a winning slogan.

Republicans don’t trust women.

Damn right I heard that as a threat.

The party of Reagan has become the party of Putin.

Whoever he was, that guy was nuts.

Cat Blogging

An old picture of Tunch (from a year ago- he is a few pounds heavier now):

Don’t let the innocent looks fool you. He is rotten to the core.

And the only color on him is an orange stripey tail and some orange spots on his head, which you can barely make out.

*** Update ***

This is great- a carnival of pets called The Ark (via Smijer), which this week is dedicated to Edloe.

    Good lookin’ fella. Pity about the whole “rotten to the core” bit, though.

    Okay–I’m fairly new to this site. Could someone explain all this Cat Blogging stuff? I’m really enjoying it, especially since my own beloved kitty passed away in my arms a few months ago. This fellow is really gorgeous!

    I guess now is as good a time as any to post the “What animal are you? quiz.

    Well, of course he’s rotten to the core, John. He’s a CAT. They have a reputation to keep up. (It took me years to realize that the reason Jack Benny was so funny was that he acted exactly like a cat.)

    Out of idle curiosity, where did the name Tunch come from?

    I am a Steelers fan, and Tunch Ilkin was a lineman for the Steelers for years and is now an announcer. I have always loved the names Tunch Ilkin and Jumbo Elliot.

    When I finally buy a house and get a Jack Russell terrier, I am going to name it Jumbo Elliot or John Henry.
