Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

There are times when telling just part of the truth is effectively a lie.

“What are Republicans afraid of?” Everything.

The truth is, these are not very bright guys, and things got out of hand.

Stay strong, because they are weak.

Washington Post Catch and Kill, not noticeably better than the Enquirer’s.

Consistently wrong since 2002

If you voted for Trump, you don’t get to speak about ethics, morals, or rule of law.

A norm that restrains only one side really is not a norm – it is a trap.

When I decide to be condescending, you won’t have to dream up a fantasy about it.

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

I did not have this on my fuck 2025 bingo card.

An almost top 10,000 blog!

Museums are not America’s attic for its racist shit.

The lights are all blinking red.

If a good thing happens for a bad reason, it’s still a good thing.

We’ve had enough carrots to last a lifetime. break out the sticks.

Yeah, with this crowd one never knows.

He wakes up lying, and he lies all day.

JFC, are there no editors left at that goddamn rag?

Impressively dumb. Congratulations.

Second rate reporter says what?

Oppose, oppose, oppose. do not congratulate. this is not business as usual.

No one could have predicted…

The words do not have to be perfect.

The always readable Obsidian Wings is much more so today, as Hilzoy and Von both have pretty decent posts on the Plame/Rove nastiness.

    I think it’s wise for thoughtful Republicans to back away from Rove, at least not act the fool and say something that will show up in Fall ’06 on a campaign mailer.

    Myself, I wish my friends on the Left would stop calling for Rove to step down or be fired. He’s not going to stop puppeteering if the curtain is drawn tighter. Even at this late date, he’s getting photographed with Bush, and that’s just fine with me. The Democrats aren’t going to get hearings about him, Bush is not going to get impeached. Let the Rethugs draw in the wagons and get Karl’s stank all over themselves.
