Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Let’s delete this post and never speak of this again.

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

It’s the corruption, stupid.

Only Democrats have agency, apparently.

Something needs to be done about our bogus SCOTUS.

We’re watching the self-immolation of the leading world power on a level unprecedented in human history.

Some judge needs to shut this circus down soon.

Our messy unity will be our strength.

These days, even the boring Republicans are nuts.

Accountability, motherfuckers.

You are so fucked. Still, I wish you the best of luck.

“What are Republicans afraid of?” Everything.

We know you aren’t a Democrat but since you seem confused let me help you.

The worst democrat is better than the best republican.

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

Jesus watching the most hateful people claiming to be his followers

If you tweet it in all caps, that makes it true!

They were going to turn on one another at some point. It was inevitable.

Bad people in a position to do bad things will do bad things because they are bad people. End of story.

To the privileged, equality seems like oppression.

The only way through is to slog through the muck one step at at time.

“In this country American means white. everybody else has to hyphenate.”

Take hopelessness and turn it into resilience.

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

Site Maintenance Again

This post is in: Previous Site Maintenance

The transition to the new design should be today or tomorrow, so if you are not on the blogroll and think I have overlooked you, please speak up now so I can do this all at once. I just noticed when writing the post below to Bill that for some reason, Bill was not on there.

It seems like every two weeks I find someone else I thought was there isn’t, and I don’t know if I am deleting things accidentally or if I am just an idiot and never had certain links there in the first place. Probably a little of both. At any rate, now is your chance to let me know if you are missing.

    John,

    I’d love to have you link me…not sure you’d want to, but I like your site even if I don’t always agree, therefore I link to you. Have fun unrolling your new graphics!

    All the best
    Nancy

    John, this has nothing to do with site maintenance but I thought it was funny/strange. I was on “Alas, a blog” for some reason I can’t entirely explain, and I was reading down the blogroll – he’s got “on the right” and then “even further right”, and he had you under that category. Apparently you’re a Dobson shill.

    Then again, he has Matthew Yglesias listed as “on the right”

    amptoons.com/blog/

    That’s the link…

    Nothing strange about it- they are progressives. Matt is to their right, and I am to the right of that. Red State would probably make them faint, and reading a Dobson press release could be fatal. Just a matter of perspective.

    That is why the folks at Kos had outright strokes every time Republicans called Kerry and Gore liberals. To them, Gore (kerry, less so), are moderates or centrists. And, in all reality, when you compare American politics to European politics, they generally have a point.

    Same with the media. Ever wonder why the two loudest critics of the media are progressives and the right-wing? It is the corporate media to the left, the liberal media to the right.
