Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

It’s a doggy dog world.

Republicans: The threats are dire, but my tickets are non-refundable!

Republicans can’t even be trusted with their own money.

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

Let’s finish the job.

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

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

Yeah, with this crowd one never knows.

After dobbs, women are no longer free.

The republican caucus is covering themselves with something, and it’s not glory.

Proof that we need a blogger ethics panel.

The arc of the moral universe doesn’t bend itself. it’s up to us.

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

Republicans don’t lie to be believed, they lie to be repeated.

At some point, the ability to learn is a factor of character, not IQ.

In after Baud. Damn.

Impressively dumb. Congratulations.

Nikki Haley, who can’t acknowledge ‘slavery’, is a pathetic shill.

They think we are photo bombing their nice little lives.

Trump makes a mockery of the legal system and cowardly judges just sit back and let him.

People are weird.

But frankly mr. cole, I’ll be happier when you get back to telling us to go fuck ourselves.

He wakes up lying, and he lies all day.

I know this must be bad for Joe Biden, I just don’t know how.

Big game tonight for the Eers!

Important Piece of Trivia About Your Host: I was recently (an hour ago) caught singing along to Huey Lewis in the grocery store. I have no shame.

    Or make my face break out

    A couple weeks ago the wife asked me to put on a CD while she was cooking dinner. Huey lasted all of about ten secnods (and it was her CD!).

    “Signing” along to Huey Lewis? Impressive. I bet you do a mean Helen Keller impersonation.

    Is Cole on some kind of 12 step recovering Lame program where he has to publicly admit to relapses?

    His announcement was posted to the State Department’s new Internet blog, “Dipnote,” (http://www.blogs.state.gov). He then confirmed the comments to The Associated Press.

    Dipnote?

    When confronted, Cole had no excuse for knowing Huey’s lyrics, so he pulled the latest Giuliani and blamed it on the terrorists.

    How is Giuliani able to insert 911 into every public comment he makes? The mind reels.

    None of the kids in currently in college were alive when Huey Lewis was relevant. That means you’re old.
