Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

I really should read my own blog.

And now I have baud making fun of me. this day can’t get worse.

I like you, you’re my kind of trouble.

Only Democrats have agency, apparently.

We still have time to mess this up!

You cannot shame the shameless.

Yeah, with this crowd one never knows.

“Jesus paying for the sins of everyone is an insult to those who paid for their own sins.”

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

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

Let there be snark.

Second rate reporter says what?

I’ve spoken to my cat about this, but it doesn’t seem to do any good.

A snarling mass of vitriolic jackals

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

We’ve had enough carrots to last a lifetime. break out the sticks.

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

Perhaps you mistook them for somebody who gives a damn.

So it was an October Surprise A Day, like an Advent calendar but for crime.

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

Russian mouthpiece, go fuck yourself.

Bark louder, little dog.

This really is a full service blog.

Nancy smash is sick of your bullshit.

    Paris Hilton got out of jail this morning. Undisclosed health issues. I wonder if there is a video?

    The list also includes a number of children, including the two young sons of Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, the alleged mastermind of the 9/11 attacks. The two boys have not been seen by family members since they were detained in Pakistan almost five years ago during a raid in search of their father.

    The report also expresses concern over the fate of Yusuf al-Khalid and Abed al-Khalid, the sons of Khalid Sheikh Mohammed. They were taken into custody, aged nine and seven, in September 2002, during an attempt to capture their father. A former detainee says that he saw them in March the following year, around the time their father was captured, in a secret prison where the guards tormented them with insects.

    According to Arkansas Republican Party Chairman Dennis Milligan, the reason people hate Bush is because they’re not afraid enough:

    At the end of the day, I believe fully the president is doing the right thing, and I think all we need is some attacks on American soil like we had on [9/11 ], and the naysayers will come around very quickly to appreciate not only the commitment for President Bush, but the sacrifice that has been made by men and women to protect this country.

    I won’t go so far as to say that Milligan is hoping for attacks on American soil, but how exactly will more of them make anyone appreciate Bush’s Iraq debacle more?

    Won’t that create a problem for the “we’ve never had an attack since 9/11 because our commander-in-chief is doing such a fine job” argument?

    I will never buy into the fear that this president wants me to feel, NEVER!

    No, that’ll underline how “you’ve never had an attack since 9/11” until the Defeatocrat Party voter-frauded its way into Congress and made America look weak!!.

    Ain’t gonna happen. Remember, we’re fighting them in Iraq so we don’t have to deal with them here. Asshats. If we are attacked again, it simply confirms the fraudulence of the GWOT and the then wasted sacrifices of America’s fighting men and women.

    To some extent it would, yes. But the 28 Percenters really think that it would rally people behind Bush.

    They are that deluded. They are that crazy.

    Does anybody else think that Bush should be checked out with a Gieger counter after meeting with Putin AND suffering from a “virus”?
