Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

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

And we’re all out of bubblegum.

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

Ah, the different things are different argument.

They traffic in fear. it is their only currency. if we are fearful, they are winning.

There are consequences to being an arrogant, sullen prick.

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

Black Jesus loves a paper trail.

Republicans do not pay their debts.

There is no compromise when it comes to body autonomy. You either have it or you don’t.

How can republicans represent us when they don’t trust women?

Let’s finish the job.

Only Democrats have agency, apparently.

When I decide to be condescending, you won’t have to dream up a fantasy about it.

… gradually, and then suddenly.

Jack be nimble, jack be quick, hurry up and indict this prick.

I was promised a recession.

T R E 4 5 O N

The choice is between normal and crazy.

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

Just because you believe it, that doesn’t make it true.

There are a lot more evil idiots than evil geniuses.

Proof that we need a blogger ethics panel.

The revolution will be supervised.

    Looks like the wingnuts found their “but the left does it, too, SEE?” moment in an ambush that KDFW tv reporter Rebecca Aguilar conducted on a man who shot two intruders in two separate break-in incidents. What they seem to gloss over is the fact that the reporter WAS SUSPENDED and will be off the air for an indefinite amount of time.

    So when the Hell is the Stalkin’ Malkin getting off my internet?

    The Iraqs inked a deal with Iran and China to build power plants-NYT today.
    Sorry I can’t link right now.

    Anywho, the US military is not happy.

    Republicans continue their attacks on sick children and their parents. Note that these parents are also Republicans, no mark of the devil (01-20-09 bumper sticker) apparently.

    I really am curious. Telling poor or middle-class people who have jobs that have little or no health insurance they should just “get other jobs with healthcare as a sacrifice to their families” doesn’t seem like a winning strategy. More and more people are un or under-insured, because their employers keep raising premiums or dropping coverage. It’s not like these people are in the minority anymore, and it’s really 99% of the jobs out there that have health insurance and just a few specialty ones that pay a zillion that don’t.

    Bulletin: In addition to the Iranian contraband ordinace reported by the US miitary of late, sources now report recent detection of enormous stores of US-made weaponry including state-of-the-artairplanes and M1A1 tanks, in Iraqi territory.

    Military experts attribute this to porous borders and widespread violations of sovereign Iranian airspace.

    This is too funny not to pass along.

    The wingnuts really do rule the Republican party now, don’t they.

    The media is attempting to force Sam Brownback out. Typical.

    According to Red State and non-partisan folks at world net daily, California has made it a law that schools can not use phrases such as “mom and dad” and “husband and wife” due to the passing of SB777 this week. They also go on with other acts like AB 394 and AB 14 are part of anti-discrimination laws. These new laws are “right out of the old communist re-education center handbook.”

    Great fun! http://www.redstate.com/blogs/bob_frazier/2007/oct/15/mom_and_dad_banned_in_california_schools
