Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Since when do we limit our critiques to things we could do better ourselves?

New McCarthy, same old McCarthyism.

Is it negotiation when the other party actually wants to shoot the hostage?

Stamping your little feets and demanding that they see how important you are? Not working anymore.

I’m sure you banged some questionable people yourself. We’re allowed to grow past that.

There is one struggling party in US right now, and it’s not the Democrats.

Nothing worth doing is easy.

Yeah, with this crowd one never knows.

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

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Pelosi: “He either is stupid, or he thinks the rest of us are.” Why not both?

Please don’t feed the bears.

Too often we hand the biggest microphones to the cynics and the critics who delight in declaring failure.

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

The gop is a fucking disgrace.

The cruelty is the point; the law be damned.

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

Another missed opportunity for Jamie Dimon to just shut the fuck up.

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

I like you, you’re my kind of trouble.

This country desperately needs a functioning Fourth Estate.

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

You don’t get to peddle hatred on saturday and offer condolences on sunday.

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

    Look for much Republican wailing about “end times” (are those a good or bad thing for true believers – I forget) because of this. And how small businesses will be ruined, your kids will be forced to have a gay orgy, blah blah.

    It would be funnier if the threat of stuff like that (“your priests will all be forced to perform gay marriages”) wasn’t being used as campaign propoganda (effectively until recently).

    I can imagine a LOLcat with the caption of “oh noes, i’ve been trix0red into a gay marriage”.

    Yay! Now all you straight people have to attend gay sex training classes and pass a test! Or at least I gathered that from the American Family Association. They have a great news service.

    Ugh thank baby Agnos. Maybe now every single gay blog can stop the whining about the transgender omission.

    Yes, I am quite aware that I’m whining about whining.

    Wow. That’s… Weird. Excellent weird, but still weird. I did not expect it to pass or even come close. I was expecting the usual excuses from the usual subjects.

    I thought someone was setting off fire crackers earlier, but maybe it was wingy-heads ‘spoldin.

    I can imagine a LOLcat with the caption of “oh noes, i’ve been trix0red into a gay marriage”.

    Well, here’s one for the natural consequences of this bill.

    That’s awesome. Although I think the “T” (trans-species) was left out. Too controversial right now.

    Speaking of trans-species luv, I wonder how long it will be until Dick “Santorum” crawls out of his lair, sees a dog humping a guy’s leg and predicts six more weeks of Armageddon.

    I saw that somewhere with the caption “I’m in ur bed, bonin’ ur dog.” The puppy’s expression is priceless!
