Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

“woke” is the new caravan.

Chutkan laughs. Lauro sits back down.

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

šŸŽ¶ Those boots were made for mockin’ šŸŽµ

When do the post office & the dmv weigh in on the wuhan virus?

Many life forms that would benefit from greater intelligence, sadly, do not have it.

Their freedom requires your slavery.

Republicans: ā€œAbortion is murder but you can take a bus to get one.ā€ Easy peasy.

The Supreme Court cannot be allowed to become the ultimate, unaccountable arbiter of everything.

I’d like to think you all would remain faithful to me if i ever tried to have some of you killed.

… pundit janitors mopping up after the gop

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

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

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

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

The arc of history bends toward the same old fuckery.

When someone says they ā€œlove freedomā€, rest assured they don’t mean yours.

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

… gradually, and then suddenly.

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

Seems like a complicated subject, have you tried yelling at it?

When the time comes to make an endorsement, the pain of NYT editors will be palpable as they reluctantly whisper ā€œBiden.ā€

Republicans would impeach Biden if he bit into a whole Kit Kat rather than breaking the sections apart.

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

    sorry John, but you can’t reclaim the mantle of “conservative” for the few sane former war-hawks who have seen the light. “Conservative” has to bear some relationship to the people who are considered “conservative” in government — and since they are all pretty much batshit crazy, the choice has to be Red State, or LGF, or Malkin, or…..

    It’s interesting to read the reasons for some of the nominations. “The best place to bash liberals” or some such thing. Especially DU liberals. An obscure blog whose sole existence to is to bash an another fringe site. I guess that might be the definition of “conservative” to some.

    Or the one, I foget which, which focuses on “Islamofascism” and “liberals”…

    I love Belgravia Dispatch…

    I don’t understand how balloon juice can be conservative. This site is definitely not a socially conservative site. I don’t find it to be a fiscally conservative site given the support of SCHIP and other elements.

    The ideology of the site tends to be defined more by opposition. Opposition to the activist right wings blogs, Bush and others. But defining yourself by your enemies doesn’t mean there’s a core set of beliefs in this blog.

    Sure it’s easy to hammer Bush and the R’s for them abandoning the small government conservatism of Armey. But then Cole seems to believe that SCHIP expansion is fine. That’s a moderate view and is quite opposed to the principle positions of small government conservatives.

    hederman…if you read Cole you’d see that he doesn’t support SCHIP, but is opposed to the treatment of the Frost family.

    Cole doesn’t support SCHIP. He thinks it is inevitable and therefore a stupid hill for Republicans to die on.

    Isn’t Blogs 4 Brownback a parody site?
    I mean, it’s got to be…right?

    The scary thing is that we have to stop and ask ourselves..’Is this one real or a spoof?”

    I wasn’t nominated, so I don’t care.

    And yes, those grapes are kind of sour–how did you know?

    …it’s a spoof, right? Seriously, I couldn’t tell.
