Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

No Kings: Americans standing in the way of bad history saying “Oh, Fuck No!”

Live so that if you miss a day of work people aren’t hoping you’re dead.

President Musk and Trump are both poorly raised, coddled 8 year old boys.

Let me eat cake. The rest of you could stand to lose some weight, frankly.

Incompetence, fear, or corruption? why not all three?

The words do not have to be perfect.

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

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

One lie, alone, tears the fabric of reality.

Not all heroes wear capes.

Too little, too late, ftfnyt. fuck all the way off.

It’s easy to sit in safety and prescribe what other people should be doing.

We are learning that “working class” means “white” for way too many people.

Giving in to doom is how we fail to fight for ourselves & one another.

We need to vote them all out and restore sane Democratic government.

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

You are so fucked. Still, I wish you the best of luck.

The only way through is to slog through the muck one step at at time.

T R E 4 5 O N

Stop using mental illness to avoid talking about armed white supremacy.

People really shouldn’t expect the government to help after they watched the GOP drown it in a bathtub.

Usually wrong but never in doubt

Red lights blinking on democracy’s dashboard

“The defense has a certain level of trust in defendant that the government does not.”

For the Giants

The song that the evil pinko commies at Sadly, No! and the Poorman will not be playing this year:

Watching the whiny ass cheating Patriots lose, and knowing I get to watch Belichick’s whiny ass press conference is ALMOST as good as the Steeler win a few years back. I especially like having to drag all the Patriots back out on to the field for one final second to really grind the loss into their collective faces.

Congratulations, Giants!

*** Update ***

Can we now stop talking about the Patriots like the Steelers of the 70’s? And btw, a former Steeler is who killed the Pats.

*** Update #2 ***

Looks like McCain picked up another vote:

I am so confident of both a Patriots win today and a Romney win in Massachusetts on Tuesday that I made this pledge on the air Friday: “If the NY Giants beat the Patriots in the Super Bowl, I will vote cast my Super Duper Tuesday primary vote for (shudder) John McCain.”

So when I say “Go, Pats!” I really, REALLY mean it.

I also think they are even more of a lead-pipe cinch to win the Super Bowl than McCain is to win the GOP nomination. Either way, I’m putting my money..er vote where my mouth is.

    No worries. We probably won’t hear much from Rudy for a while. He’s still a bit worn out from telling everyone how he single handedly saved NY from … well he saved the world from every evil known to mankind. That’s pretty strenuous work, you know.

    I told you Eli’s coming!

    I am so not looking forward to work tomorrow. My boss would gladly hand his first born over to Brady (roasted, on a platter, with pearl onions) and I suspect he is going to be in a foul mood for the rest of the year.

    For as long as I live, I will remember how, on Tuck’s second sack, Brady looked exactly like he was having his handbag stolen.

    I bet Giselle kicks him square in the nuts.

    Bip on over to Sadly, No for the best New England whine.

    I hate the Giants (Eagles fan), but I was kinda for them tonight.

    Giants fans still suck next to Jets fans, though. I’ll take firefighters over snooty stockbrokers any day.

    I personally hope that Belichek gets a fine for walking (sulking) off the field with 2 seconds left. The Patriots players are a class act and played well. They’re management…not so much.

    I lost interest in American football years ago but out of loyalty to the Giants I stayed up to watch the game, remembering the days when my friends and I would to Yankee Stadium on Saturday mornings before a home game and they’d let you in for free to watch the Giants practice; the home games were blacked out. It was all so much more approachable back then.

    Anyway, good for the Giants. Sports are best when something totally unexpected happens – a great upset and a great game.

    Just a couple of words for New England fans after a great but ultimately unsatisfying season:

    Tough shit.

    “If the NY Giants beat the Patriots in the Super Bowl, I will vote cast my Super Duper Tuesday primary vote for (shudder) John McCain.”

    It is far too early to laugh so hard. Let the backpedaling begin.

    I guess it was worth watching the entire game. Otherwise I might have thought this was true. For those who missed it, pay no attention to this Lying Liar and his Lies. Bill Belichick raced out to midfield, gave Tom a big hug, and graciously stepped out of the spotlight so that the Champions could have it all.

    Bill Derangement Syndrome, not a good look for you, you lying liar.

    I don’t see losing in the first round as an impediment to talking shit at all.

    I knew Joe Montana. Joe Montana was a friend of mine. And you, Tom Brady, are no Joe Montana.

    All class Bill Belichek. All class.

    Right on! I thought it was very classy the way he ran out to congratulate Tom Coughlin and then get out of the way so the Giants could celebrate.

    What’s not so classy are the lying liars who don’t tell the truth. I know you were being completely sincere with your post, right? Because otherwise you’d, you know, be one of those lying liars. Not to mention exactly what you’re trying to project on the COY, a poor loser.

    I was watching the game without any emotional investment in the outcome until that red flag hit the field. At that moment I knew who I wanted to win, and it wasn’t the team coached by a chicken-crap piece of garbage who dresses like a thug and has the morals and behavior to match his attire. Watching him leave the field with his tail between his legs before the game was even officially over was the best moment of the entire NFL season.

    More on my post today.

    My, you still haven’t gotten over Norv Turners bungling of the Red Flag -twice – in that Colts game? Chin up, hopefully he was watching the Master, who you’ll notice *won* that Challenge.

    Congrats to all the Giants Fans here trying to enjoy the Victory, but I piss on all the lying losers from the Loser Teams who lost weeks and months ago and have nothing left but Lies. Losing Liars.

    Two seconds on the clock…check.
    Final play of the game…check.
    Bill Belichek on the field with the rest of his team?

    Uh…Bill…Where are you, Bill?

    The Patriots players were all class. Bill…not so much.

    Talk about getting your knickers in a twist? I didn’t delete it…I included it as a part of your quote. Up there for the rest of the world to read. Had I wanted to, I could have culled that little nugget out. Then, maybe, you’d have a complaint.

    I included your part…check.
    Belichek still has no class…check.

    I usually am on the same page as you are, John, but that Steelers win? Against the Seahawks?

    That was one of the poorest officiated games I have ever seen. Damn activist refs!

    Although, I am in Seattle, so I may be biased.
