Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Shut up, hissy kitty!

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

He wakes up lying, and he lies all day.

It is possible to do the right thing without the promise of a cookie.

Just because you believe it, that does not make it true.

Also, are you sure you want people to rate your comments?

Fear or fury? The choice is ours.

She burned that motherfucker down, and I am so here for it. Thank you, Caroline Kennedy.

Whoever he was, that guy was nuts.

Dumb motherfuckers cannot understand a consequence that most 4 year olds have fully sorted out.

When someone says they “love freedom”, rest assured they don’t mean yours.

Giving in to doom is how we fail to fight for ourselves & one another.

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

Well, whatever it is, it’s better than being a Republican.

The arc of history bends toward the same old fuckery.

Never entrust democracy to any process that requires republicans to act in good faith.

Wake up. Grow up. Get in the fight.

I am pretty sure these ‘journalists’ were not always such a bootlicking sycophants.

A snarling mass of vitriolic jackals

Not rolling over. fuck you, make me.

Giving in to doom is how authoritarians win.

Speaker Mike Johnson is a vile traitor to the House and the Constitution.

This isn’t Democrats spending madly. This is government catching up.

You cannot shame the shameless.

Steelers Sunday

The Steelers take on the Vikings in another must win, and the Steelers have received some help getting a Wild card berth with the Chiefs losing yesterday to the Tiki Barber and ten other people.

For the record, I hate watching football in domes. Go Steelers!

    Let’s hope the Steelers’ defense is better than Al Maviva’s lying defense of Bush’s illegal spying.

    Why do you people always assume people you disagree with are lying rather than just wrong?

    Really.

    It will be easier to defend against the Vikings than it will be to defend the President spying on US Citizens and crapping on the constitution.

    Go Steelers!

    Even though I am a huge fan of Big Ben (I went to MU). With that broken thumb, it’s time to jump on the Sidney Crosby band wagon. The kid is incredible. Plus hockey is just more fun to watch.

    Go Vikes!

    Actualy, don’t both teams have a winning streak on the line? The Vikings actually have a chance (small) of taking the division. Given the Steelers are already in the playoff, I like the chances of a win this week. It is kind of sad though that this is the only way they can get in. They haven’t played great in this streak, only well enough to win.

    I agree about watching football in domes; we need Met Stadium again, so the visiting teams really feel what December in Minnesota is like.

    Go Vikings!

    There’s a really good chance the Steelers can make the playoffs. Their last three are easy: Minnesota, Cleveland and Detroit. The other two wild card contenders are in worse trouble, with San Diego playing Indy and Denver. Kansas City lost to NY and finishes with Cincinnati. In between, they play each other.

    So far the game can go either way. Both sides are making stupid mistakes, but so far they seem to be more advantageous for the vikes. Skol Vikings, Skol!
