Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Come on, man.

Let us savor the impending downfall of lawless scoundrels who richly deserve the trouble barreling their way.

Bad news for Ron DeSantis is great news for America.

Only Democrats have agency, apparently.

If senate republicans had any shame, they’d die of it.

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

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

Ron DeSantis, the grand wizard, oops, governor of FL

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

The new republican ‘Pastor’ of the House is an odious authoritarian little creep.

I’d try pessimism, but it probably wouldn’t work.

Do not shrug your shoulders and accept the normalization of untruths.

The worst democrat is better than the best republican.

The GOP couldn’t organize an orgy in a whorehouse with a fist full of 50s.

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

I wonder if trump will be tried as an adult.

It’s a doggy dog world.

Take your GOP plan out of the witness protection program.

Black Jesus loves a paper trail.

A lot of Dems talk about what the media tells them to talk about. Not helpful.

We’ll be taking my thoughts and prayers to the ballot box.

Motto for the House: Flip 5 and lose none.

You can’t love your country only when you win.

Take hopelessness and turn it into resilience.

    The Vermont senate passed a resolution calling for the US Congress to initiate impeachment procedures against Bush and Cheney. The vote was 16-9.

    You know how when they stand up, we’ll stand down? Yeah, not so much.

    And I hear Barney keeps running away, but they’ve tagged him.

    9? In Vermont? I smell 9 VERY susceptible State Leggies come election time…

    Yeah, and 3 of the 9 were Dems.

    Of course, there’s still a fair-sized portion of Vermont that wants to secede. It’s a state that marches to its own drummer.

    Why does Vermont hate Amuricah?

    Laura has fled the White House.

    Damn it. Now I feel tempted to stop by the H-A on the way home from work. Perhaps count the number of guys & gals with wires in their ears and divide by pie.

    No, I shall ignore this rumour. I shall.

    Meh, PC, you missed the point — Bush still believes that we stand down when they stand up. It’s just that his lackeys are no longer pretending that they’ll ever stand up.

    MSNBC has learned its lesson–apparently the problem with Imus was that he wasn’t enough of a bigoted asshole for them…

    Be nice if we had a system where the congress could issue a no confidence vote against Bush and start an election. Don’t they do that in Britian. Because, plainly only the desperate of people still have confidence in the guy.

    What, Vermont? Oh yeah, they’re totally crazy over there. Yeeeeeeeearrrrrrhhhhh!

    It’s the state motto.

    ‘Welcome to Vermont. We’re crazy, but we’ve got skiing and maple syrup. Also beer. Yeeeeeeeargggggghhhhh!’

    Unfortunately, it doesn’t fit on the license plates.

    That is truly a great performance of a great song. But why do I suddenly find myself craving a triple-stack from Wendy’s?

    I work with the Drummer. They’re pretty good. What I find fascinating, is that they each record their track, upload them to the last guy who does vocals who puts the whole song together.
