Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Someone should tell Republicans that violence is the last refuge of the incompetent, or possibly the first.

Bark louder, little dog.

Hot air and ill-informed banter

Sitting here in limbo waiting for the dice to roll

Republicans got rid McCarthy. Democrats chose not to save him.

This fight is for everything.

They are lying in pursuit of an agenda.

People are complicated. Love is not.

The new temporary speaker of the house is a spiteful little shit.

Reality always lies in wait for … Democrats.

You’re just a puppy masquerading as an old coot.

Spilling the end game before they can coat it in frankl luntz-approved dogwhistles.

Republicans are the party of chaos and catastrophe.

The next time the wall street journal editorial board speaks the truth will be the first.

If senate republicans had any shame, they’d die of it.

Accused of treason; bitches about the ratings. I am in awe.

Fani Willis claps back at Trump chihuahua, Jim Jordan.

I wonder if trump will be tried as an adult.

The poor and middle-class pay taxes, the rich pay accountants, the wealthy pay politicians.

Damn right I heard that as a threat.

“Jesus paying for the sins of everyone is an insult to those who paid for their own sins.”

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

The Giant Orange Man Baby is having a bad day.

A sufficient plurality of insane, greedy people can tank any democratic system ever devised, apparently.

Hmm, I feel like we don’t have enough Katherine Harris photoretrospectives around here. How about this – you guys make sure that we don’t finish dead last in our category at the webbies and I promise to forget that the idea ever occurred to me. In the unlikely chance that we win I’ll even start up regular beer blogging again on a weekly basis.

Each IP can vote once per 24 hour period, so return as many times as you feel like doing. While there don’t forget to support your favorites in the other categories as well.

***Update***

Vote for the Newshoggers too since I probably bolloxed their shot at Best Liberal Blog (and because they’re a damn good blog).

    Don’t forget, kids, that means you can vote at work and at home! And any other computers left idle during lunch!

    I was not kidding yesterday when I said they should change the name of these awards to the “”The Most Persistent Online Narcissism Awards.”

    Let the browbeating and Katherine Harries threats begin in earnest.

    Tim, first off a Katherine Harris retrospective would definitely lead to more fun with photoshop so your threats do not scare me BWAHAHAHAA. However I will vote anyways.

    Damn. Why don’t you just threaten to waterboard us in a tank full of pirahna?

    Oh yeah, that would be preferable to looking at Krazee Kat “BRING ME A FRESH LATTE” Harris. Fine…

    Man, you’re getting beaten like a redstated stepchild. (Okay, somebody had to say it.) But I did vote for you.

    And I vote yes on the Katherine Harris photoretrospective. You just can’t get enough Katherine Harris. Back when she was running for Congress, I even proposed a Katherine Harris reality show.

    Will the Katherine Harris photoretrospective be all boob shots?

    If so, that may not be so bad…

    Tell you what, I’ll vote two or three times and you just post some pictures of boobies okay? I mean even women (and gay men) like looking at boobies, they’re universally accepted.

    Let’s put some more “balloons” on Balloon-Juice…who’s with me?

    … I’ll even start up regular beer blogging again on a weekly basis.

    Please! Please! Please! Beer. Good. Yes. Beer Blogging Good.

    MUST TRY: Stone Brewing Company’s 11th Anniversary Ale. I just bought a case of 650 ml bottles after trying it the other day.

    APPEARANCE: Deep brown/black with a thick tan head
    AROMA: Fruit and some coffee-like roasted malt
    FLAVOR: Intense hop flavors, roasted, a bit sweet, with some alcohol warmth
    PALATE: Smooth, full, slightly sweet and very bitter
    OVERALL: Refreshing, a nice blend of intense hop flavors, hop bitterness and roasted malt notes. It does not need any additional aging, drink now!

    Now that it has cooled down some this is a perfect beer for the Fall.

    Don’t forget to vote (from home and work!) folks! Lets ‘Chicago’ this baby. Look up your favorite proxy list and go to town!

    Hi Tim,

    How about throwing a bleg for the Newshoggers out there too? Surely we deserve the pity vote after being dumped from the “Best Liberal Blog” finalists?

    I voted for redstate.com, by far the best spoof blog on the intertubes.
