Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

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

There’s always a light at the end of the frog.

Come on, media. you have one job. start doing it.

with the Kraken taking a plea, the Cheese stands alone.

One of our two political parties is a cult whose leader admires Vladimir Putin.

Everyone is in a bubble, but some bubbles model reality far better than others!

So many bastards, so little time.

Too often we confuse noise with substance. too often we confuse setbacks with defeat.

Republicans: “Abortion is murder but you can take a bus to get one.” Easy peasy.

This must be what justice looks like, not vengeful, just peaceful exuberance.

Technically true, but collectively nonsense

There are no moderate republicans – only extremists and cowards.

Battle won, war still ongoing.

Wow, you are pre-disappointed. How surprising.

When the time comes to make an endorsement, the pain of NYT editors will be palpable as they reluctantly whisper “Biden.”

Black Jesus loves a paper trail.

It’s always darkest before the other shoe drops.

Republicans do not pay their debts.

Why is it so hard for them to condemn hate?

Red lights blinking on democracy’s dashboard

The frogs are rarely mistaken.

It’s the corruption, stupid.

Their boy Ron is an empty plastic cup that will never know pudding.

I did not have this on my fuck 2022 bingo card.

    Any chance Jon Stewart will release the entire interview of last night’s smack-down of DoughBob LoadPants?

    They have it up over at The Daily Show site. Stewart said the the interview lasted 18 minutes but they only had time for 6. There was a lot of beeps in the last few minutes, so… It was more of the same – Goldberg getting called on his bullshit and unable to defend it. I really hope they release the whole 18 minutes unedited. Let’s start an e-mail campaign.

    It’s the Airline’s policy to never imply ownership, so we have to use the indefinite article “a” dildo, never “your” dildo.

    God, Fight Club is a great movie.

    Wow. That made my morning. They need to release all 18 minutes.

    Highlight:

    Jon Stewart: “I don’t know what you’re saying!”

    My god, I hope so. That interview was epic. I liked how as it jumped from clip to clip, you could see Stewart slowly collapsing in shock at the sheer stupidity. By the end, I think he was clinging to his desk.

    On the topic of the Pantload v Stewart; the doughy one has fallen back on a classic wingnut defense tactic–namely peddling such an overwhelming load of bullshit that you can’t figure out where to start with your rebuttal. They then take you speechlessness as a sign that they have beaten you.

    I would’ve liked to have seen Jon Stewart say something about fascism being the merging of the corporation and the state, with the populace being essentially just cogs in the wheels, but hey, he is a comedian. I’ve been taken aback bby a dumptruck load of stupidity once or twice myself and formulating a counterattack can be difficult.

    Stewart was definitely rolling in the last few minutes though.

    I say John Cole, Sadly, No!, Instaputz, FireDogLake, etc… should all start posting pleas for the release of the whole 18 minutes. How ’bout it?

    You know, it’s probably unfair to ask this question, but…

    Is it possible that John McCain’s Vietnam war injuries were self-inflicted?

    I would say no chance of that. I am guessing that the massive obvious editing job was to keep Jon from looking even more like the clueless dense empty suit he is.
    Screaming at a (blank) wall

    In the hell freezing over category, a post on a fem-blog that I agree with.
    Breaking news: Bisexuality exists!
    I am guessing that the study is valid as the Lancet report. But I can live with deluding myself if more young naive attractive woman buy into it.

    Anybody see George doing the Sword Dance (sic) with his Saudi master? No, no not holding that sword. That was later.
