Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Fuck these fucking interesting times.

Within six months Twitter will be fully self-driving.

Authoritarian republicans are opposed to freedom for the rest of us.

🎶 Those boots were made for mockin’ 🎵

Teach a man to fish, and he’ll sit in a boat all day drinking beer.

Republicans are radicals, not conservatives.

Second rate reporter says what?

In my day, never was longer.

They traffic in fear. it is their only currency. if we are fearful, they are winning.

A last alliance of elves and men. also pet photos.

It’s always darkest before the other shoe drops.

The willow is too close to the house.

After roe, women are no longer free.

Do not shrug your shoulders and accept the normalization of untruths.

Since when do we limit our critiques to things we could do better ourselves?

Whatever happens next week, the fight doesn’t end.

“Jesus paying for the sins of everyone is an insult to those who paid for their own sins.”

Let there be snark.

Everybody saw this coming.

It may be funny to you motherfucker, but it’s not funny to me.

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

Come on, media. you have one job. start doing it.

That’s my take and I am available for criticism at this time.

Just because you believe it, that doesn’t make it true.

James at OTB has two great links up you should check out. The first is this link to an Andrew Sullivan piece on why he (Andrew) still supports the war in Iraq. The second is this link to a story about “B1” Bob Dornan expressing interest in running for Congress again. That will get the usual lefty quarters screaming.

    John,

    Dornan is a certifiable lunatic. During the last era in which I had cable, I watched on C-SPAN, perversely fascinated, as Dornan delivered an impassioned speech in which he alleged Clinton was a Soviet mole. Problem was that the chamber was empty, save charladies, who, during cut-away shots, were clearly wondering whether this guy had two heads or three.

    Days later, Dornan was on PBS’s NewHour, hotly demanding to know why no one had followed up the “Clinton-the-mole” charges, which were a matter of House record! Yep: because he put them there in the dead of night.

    This is not a lefty vs. righty thing. Anyone who regards Dornan as a credible candidate must be fond of Reynolds Wrap.

    Why should I get my knickers in a twist over Dornan?

    The man’s a joke. He got 16% of the vote the last time out. If you read the linked story, you’ll find he’s thinking about running as a member of the American Independent Party, which is a California offshoot of the Constitution Party, which is a RW flake fringe group, and whose leadership doesn’t seem too pleased with the idea. So he’d be running as a candidate for a splinter group of a fringe group.

    This is good for laughs, not angst.
