Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Somebody needs to explain to DeSantis that nobody needs to do anything to make him look bad.

Nothing worth doing is easy.

You can’t attract Republican voters. You can only out organize them.

I’d hate to be the candidate who lost to this guy.

Republicans seem to think life begins at the candlelight dinner the night before.

There are no moderate republicans – only extremists and cowards.

“And when the Committee says to “report your income,” that could mean anything!

There are some who say that there are too many strawmen arguments on this blog.

Democrats have delivered the Square Deal, the New Deal, the Fair Deal, and now… the Big Joe Biden Deal.

The revolution will be supervised.

Jack be nimble, jack be quick, hurry up and indict this prick.

Ah, the different things are different argument.

Meanwhile over at truth Social, the former president is busy confessing to crimes.

Someone should tell Republicans that violence is the last refuge of the incompetent, or possibly the first.

Putin dreamed of ending NATO, and now it’s Finnish-ed.

I didn’t have alien invasion on my 2023 BINGO card.

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

Shut up, hissy kitty!

I like you, you’re my kind of trouble.

I’d like to think you all would remain faithful to me if i ever tried to have some of you killed.

They think we are photo bombing their nice little lives.

Republicans want to make it harder to vote and easier for them to cheat.

He wakes up lying, and he lies all day.

Thanks to your bullshit, we are now under siege.

Interesting op-ed piece in the WaPo on the Pakistani connection to the London bombings.

    That Musharraf has not acted against religious extremists and their madrasas is hardly surprising. He needs the religious parties to bolster his military dictatorship against the democratic forces seeking to reverse his 1999 coup.

    Very one-sided; but it is an op-ed. I tend to agree slightly with their points but the above statement is ludicrous. As if Dubya would continue to support Dobson’s fanatics if they attempted to assassinate him.

    Thank you, db. You would be surprised by the percentage of newspaper readers who do not know that simple fact.

    And don’t forget the Saudi (and other oil-rich Arab states) money that funds those madrassas.

    Afghanistan was a good start, but Pakistan and Saudi Arabia should’ve been on the short list.
