Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

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

Fear or fury? The choice is ours.

Lick the third rail, it tastes like chocolate!

Speaking of republicans, is there a way for a political party to declare intellectual bankruptcy?

I like political parties that aren’t owned by foreign adversaries.

The low info voters probably won’t even notice or remember by their next lap around the goldfish bowl.

This must be what justice looks like, not vengeful, just peaceful exuberance.

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

“Everybody’s entitled to be an idiot.”

We cannot abandon the truth and remain a free nation.

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

Russian mouthpiece, go fuck yourself.

Too often we confuse noise with substance. too often we confuse setbacks with defeat.

Usually wrong but never in doubt

Perhaps you mistook them for somebody who gives a damn.

Republicans got rid of McCarthy. Democrats chose not to save him.

We will not go quietly into the night; we will not vanish without a fight.

You are either for trump or for democracy. Pick one.

They think we are photo bombing their nice little lives.

They are lying in pursuit of an agenda.

Not loving this new fraud based economy.

Historically it was a little unusual for the president to be an incoherent babbling moron.

Boeing: repeatedly making the case for high speed rail.

I desperately hope that, yet again, i am wrong.

    Happy New Year to you too, John! (And to Tim as well, and to all other fellow posters.)

    Any resolutions, or have you resolved to not do that?

    Don’t worry all the resolutions were traded a few days ago by necessity.

    Happy New Year. Mr. Furious, your blog needs updating.

    Wow. Somebody noticed. Going hard at my job search over the last couple weeks. Couldn’t, in good conscience, “waste” time blogging.

    Who out there’s got a magazine that needs an art director…?
