Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Nancy smash is sick of your bullshit.

Republicans in disarray!

Red lights blinking on democracy’s dashboard

Sitting here in limbo waiting for the dice to roll

Pessimism assures that nothing of any importance will change.

You don’t get rid of your umbrella while it’s still raining.

Tick tock motherfuckers!

Hot air and ill-informed banter

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

… riddled with inexplicable and elementary errors of law and fact

Accused of treason; bitches about the ratings. I am in awe.

“Squeaker” McCarthy

Not all heroes wear capes.

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

A Senator Walker would also be an insult to reason, rationality, and decency.

Insiders who complain to politico: please report to the white house office of shut the fuck up.

You can’t attract Republican voters. You can only out organize them.

Anyone who bans teaching American history has no right to shape America’s future.

Republicans are the party of chaos and catastrophe.

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

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

Their freedom requires your slavery.

Republican obstruction dressed up as bipartisanship. Again.

I’d hate to be the candidate who lost to this guy.

    In fact, we were about to issue subpoenas then and one of the senators came to our meeting and said that the vice president had met with the Republican senators and told them they were not allowed to issue subpoenas.

    Not quite sure that’s my understanding of the separation of powers, but it seemed to work at that time.

    Cheney then told everyone in the room to drop trow and bend over. When the Republican Judicary Committee was seen seated on pillow cushions during the following day’s testimony, one reporter asked Mr. Specter, “Why did you do it?”

    “Well, I wanted to be respectful of the Vice President’s office. But by and large I deplore the act of sodomy and would vocally oppose it, if I didn’t also have Dick’s dick down my throat.”

    Spectering, not just confined to Pennsylvania anymore. Seems that pretty much every Dem. has mastered the art beautifully. See FISA, Iraq, well just about everything since Jan 07. Specter created, Dems perfected. In fact, how many times has Leahy claimed he is going to get to the bottom of this now. Why don’t you just go ahead and move that deadline back again and save us from having to listen to your bullshit.

    Less talk. More action. In fact, no talk, all action would be fine.

    A hundred years from now people are going to look at this period and assume both sides of the aisle was afflicted with some strange degenerative disease that destroyed the spine and atrophied the balls.
