Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Is it irresponsible to speculate? It is irresponsible not to.

I’m sure you banged some questionable people yourself. We’re allowed to grow past that.

An unpunished coup is a training exercise.

Today’s gop: why go just far enough when too far is right there?

‘Museums aren’t America’s attic for its racist shit.’

It’s not hopeless, and we’re not helpless.

Michigan is a great lesson for Dems everywhere: when you have power…use it!

In short, I come down firmly on all sides of the issue.

This really is a full service blog.

Optimism opens the door to great things.

We still have time to mess this up!

It’s easy to sit in safety and prescribe what other people should be doing.

After dobbs, women are no longer free.

Their freedom requires your slavery.

GOP baffled that ‘we don’t care if you die’ is not a winning slogan.

New McCarthy, same old McCarthyism.

“Look, it’s not against the rules anywhere, but a black woman with power was dating and there has to be something wrong with that.”

Yeah, with this crowd one never knows.

… pundit janitors mopping up after the gop

Thanks to your bullshit, we are now under siege.

Republicans don’t trust women.

The rest of the comments were smacking Boebert like she was a piñata.

Stop using mental illness to avoid talking about armed white supremacy.

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

    totally agree. My buddies and I have said “I’m not that *strong* a swimmer” or “Hey you, I know you.” For years.

    Best Simpsons’ store name based on an SNL- and voice-actor who regularly appears on the show: a salon called ‘Hairy Shearer’s.’

    Eddie Murphy singing Kill the White People is the funniest SNL clip ever.

    Lame-O!

    So many great clips and you picked this one? C’mon John, watch the freaking show!

    Lesse, Schwety Balls, More Cow Bell, Buckwheat’s Been Shot, Richard Pryor’s Word Association Test, Coneheads, Killer Bees, Samurai Laundry, Cheeseburger Cheeseburger, Mr. Robinson’s Neighborhood, the list goes on and on.

    That’s not even the best Martin Short clip.

    Eddie Murphy singing Kill the White People is the funniest SNL clip ever.

    Garrett Morris’ “I’m gonna get me a shotgun” song was better, IMO. Personally, I’ve been partial to their commercials. Schmitt’s Gay with Farley and Sandler was pretty funny. I’ll add another vote to “Cow Bell”, too.

    Might have to agree with mattski there, that may indeed be the funniest clip ever: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n_PILVkA0MY

    Come on, no love for the Land Shark? And I’m sure there’s plenty of good nuggets in the vast wasteland that was SNL in the ’80s. (Remember the one with Reagan as the geopolitical idiot savant?)

    Or, for that matter, how about Will Ferrell as W in 2000? Hell, the man gave us “strategery” for fuck’s sake.

    The greatest ever was Phil Hartman as Reagan the mastermind, but I’ve never been able to find it online.

    “I’m not that strong a swimmer”

    I’ve used that so many times while swimming, or while watching someone else swim. They look at me funny, but I laugh every time!

    Possibly. But the best Simpson’s store front of all time? That would be “Habitat for Huge Manatees“

    No votes for “I’m the only gay Eskimo”?

    That’s a good one but the best skit in years is “Sofa King”.

    Remember the one with Reagan as the geopolitical idiot savant?

    Actually, the joke was that Reagan’s senilty was all a cunning mask, and he was really a hypercompetent superman.

    The one that will always stick with me is Will Ferrell, back in 2000, doing a “see-the-future” sketch in the Oval Office which depicted George W. Bush’s America of 2007 with frightening pinpoint accuracy.

    The best Simpsons storefront was when they were walking through Chinatown and passed “Toys ‘L’ Us”
