Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Accountability, motherfuckers.

“Can i answer the question? No you can not!”

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

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

Roe isn’t about choice, it’s about freedom.

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

Today’s GOP: why go just far enough when too far is right there?

The next time the wall street journal editorial board speaks the truth will be the first.

Good lord, these people are nuts.

I see no possible difficulties whatsoever with this fool-proof plan.

I did not have this on my fuck 2022 bingo card.

Their freedom requires your slavery.

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

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

And we’re all out of bubblegum.

In my day, never was longer.

Imperialist aggressors must be defeated, or the whole world loses.

Despite his magical powers, I don’t think Trump is thinking this through, to be honest.

Jesus, Mary, & Joseph how is that election even close?

It’s easy to sit in safety and prescribe what other people should be doing.

Putin must be throwing ketchup at the walls.

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

White supremacy is terrorism.

A thin legal pretext to veneer over their personal religious and political desires

    Wow! Miers was the worst Supreme Court ever. If Bush ever failed to top himself in ineptitude, I’d simply laugh and move on. Unfortunately, I fear the worst is yet to come.

    Seh’s doing a heckuva job. Nobody could have anticipated the difficulties she faced in this nomination.

    I hear that Bush is planning on nominating the brush from his ranch next. He’s spent so much time clearing that brush. He really knows the brush’s heart. -psst- and the brush loves the womb babies. Pass it down.

    All I know is Stormy supported her as a qualified candidate, which tells you how high the bar was on that issue.

    Harriet Miers withdraws her nomination? A chill wind is blowing in this nation

    A chill wind is blowing in this nation.

    Funny, I’d expect many in the Bush administration to find it growing a bit warm in Washington, despite the season. . .

    damn. and i was so looking forward to the nomination hearings.

    since she explained her withdrawal by covering herself in the mantle of the Protector of Executive Privilege, i wonder whether that means gonzales is right out. i am still convinced he was bush’s first choice. it’s not kind of me to wish for bush to be petulant, is it.

    the next nominee will not be such fun and games for democrats.

    Oh my living fuck…

    A SCOTUS nominee who doesn’t know the difference between “your” and “you’re”, and who uses the terms “super excited” and “OMG”.

    It’s Freaky Friday! She’s been taken over by the spirit of Lindsay Lohan! That’s the only explanation….

    Lines – Okay, I admit I had a dumb moment. It happens to all of us at one point or another.

    I have to ask, though…what the hell did I do to you to deserve that?
