Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

One of our two political parties is a cult whose leader admires Vladimir Putin.

It’s always darkest before the other shoe drops.

Fuck these fucking interesting times.

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

with the Kraken taking a plea, the Cheese stands alone.

Whoever he was, that guy was nuts.

Let me eat cake. The rest of you could stand to lose some weight, frankly.

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

Don’t expect peaches from an apple tree.

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

This has so much WTF written all over it that it is hard to comprehend.

Yeah, with this crowd one never knows.

“Cheese and Kraken paired together for the appetizer trial.”

‘Museums aren’t America’s attic for its racist shit.’

We’re not going back!

They fucked up the fucking up of the fuckup!

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

The current Supreme Court is a rogue court. Very dangerous.

The cruelty is the point; the law be damned.

They are lying in pursuit of an agenda.

Make the republican party small enough to drown in a bathtub.

He seems like a smart guy, but JFC, what a dick!

Nancy smash is sick of your bullshit.

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

    Campaign Finance Reform is intended to take away the stacked deck.

    Mr. Krapmasky made no real argument, he made no concrete foundations for anything, he just tries out random words and they happened to form something akin to a paragraph and he posted it.

    I don’t know why I even follow your RedState links, they rarely make much sense.

    Red State…

    That sort of smacks of Communism. I don’t think Mr. McCarthy would be pleased at all with good Americans identifying themselves as thus.

    Sarcsam off.

    Umm. The point was to follow the link Krempasky provided to the words from the Democrat.

    Canpaign Finance Reform took away no stacked deck- it stacked the deck in favor of incumbents. I am beginning to wonder why I read your comments, they rarely make such sense.

    Oh, well that explains a lot then.

    Sorry for the misunderstanding…it’s been a long day.

    Krempasky’s right. The question is, how do we get rules that don’t stack the deck in favor of incumbents when it’s incumbents writing the laws?

    Binky, for someone who can’t seem to spell a name I can’t really give your criticism too much credit.
