Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

The truth is, these are not very bright guys, and things got out of hand.

The arc of history bends toward the same old fuckery.

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

Conservatism: there are some people the law protects but does not bind and others who the law binds but does not protect.

Sadly, there is no cure for stupid.

“Everybody’s entitled to be an idiot.”

This really is a full service blog.

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

Something needs to be done about our bogus SCOTUS.

A lot of Dems talk about what the media tells them to talk about. Not helpful.

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

Take your GOP plan out of the witness protection program.

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

Republican obstruction dressed up as bipartisanship. Again.

Balloon Juice has never been a refuge for the linguistically delicate.

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

When someone says they “love freedom”, rest assured they don’t mean yours.

The willow is too close to the house.

The worst democrat is better than the best republican.

A thin legal pretext to veneer over their personal religious and political desires

I really should read my own blog.

Speaking of republicans, is there a way for a political party to declare intellectual bankruptcy?

Everybody saw this coming.

If you are still in the GOP, you are an extremist.

    i just read a report on some conservative blogger’s website where he proved, conclusively, with his copy of Madden 92, that there’s no way this could happen.

    Is that a record for the number of laterals in a single play?

    Not only rugby, but from the looks of it, rugby sevens. Yet another reason why American football bores the hell out of me.

    Doesn’t it appear that the defence gives up at the end. That were more then just a couple of defenders just standing around and watching.

    I like how one of the announcers called it at the beginning of the play.

    The scary thing is that if the Redskins were to hire that defense, they could have kept the Pats to under 50 points.

    It would have been even better if they could have upgraded their 8mm camera to a cheap, $250 miniDVD camera. I have VHS-C tapes with more clarity.

    CNN counts 15 laterals, but I can’t keep up with them all.

    It was considerably more entertaining than usual, so I have to say it’s Rugby :-P

    That looked a lot like the Wingnuts trying to keep a smear alive in Blogistan.

    That’s nothing! You should have seen the coach diagramming the play during practice . . .

    All those laterals and not one single holding penalty.

    Well if that doesn’t prove that Scott Beauchamp and Glenn Greenwald are liars, I don’t know what ever will.
