Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

The willow is too close to the house.

If you’re pissed about Biden’s speech, he was talking about you.

There is no right way to do the wrong thing.

Hi god, it’s us. Thanks a heap, you’re having a great week and it’s only Thursday!

Despite his magical powers, I don’t think Trump is thinking this through, to be honest.

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

Boeing: repeatedly making the case for high speed rail.

Consistently wrong since 2002

Second rate reporter says what?

Relentless negativity is not a sign that you are more realistic.

Republicans don’t trust women.

Compromise? There is no middle ground between a firefighter and an arsonist.

Ah, the different things are different argument.

Dead end MAGA boomers crying about Talyor Swift being a Dem is my kind of music. Turn it up.

So many bastards, so little time.

After dobbs, women are no longer free.

Wow, you are pre-disappointed. How surprising.

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

Republicans are the party of chaos and catastrophe.

The new republican ‘Pastor’ of the House is an odious authoritarian little creep.

I’d try pessimism, but it probably wouldn’t work.

“Look, it’s not against the rules anywhere, but a black woman with power was dating and there has to be something wrong with that.”

Sadly, media malpractice has become standard practice.

The line between political reporting and fan fiction continues to blur.

    Laugh all you want, Michael. The security moms love this stuff. They want a strong leader who can keep their children safe while wearing the same pajamas their children wear.

    Frank Lunz showed this picture to a focus group on MSNBC last night and the reading on the positive meter was off the charts. Democrats ignore the power of “leader pajamas” at their own political peril.

    The fact that Putin had the photographer who take this photo assassinated a few weeks after the photo was taken just shows that the Russian mind works differently.

    At least Bush isn’t a homosexual crackhead, unlike some candidates I could name.

    (Well, okay, maybe he was a homosexual COKEhead back in the ’70s. But he isn’t anymore. Crack’s way more dangerous, that’s why you get 100 times the prison term for it. It’s called “Keeping Our Streets Safe from Predominantly-Non-Caucasian-Abused Drugs.” It’s worked out well for America so far. The last thing we need is a crackhead President fucking it up.)

    Not to mention that he may well have sent the profits from his homosexual drug abuse to the madrassas. Why hasn’t anyone looked into that yet? The liberal media’s giving Barack Osama a pass, once again.

    It’s no coincidence that B. Hussein Osama was educated in a madrassa. Madrassas are where homosexual ex-Boy Scout troop leaders often find themselves, talking up the lifestyle of sodomy and drug addiction as they indoctrinate impressionable youg minds into the ways of radical Islamist extremism.

    Remember, when you glorify snorting cocaine and engaging in homosexual activities, the terrorists win.

    Is there a rule now that when a leader visits a foreign country he has to wear the ridiculous crap that the natives won’t even wear? When the President of France visits, do we make him wear a 10-gallon hat and a pair of leather chaps?

    More of a tradition, actually. The asian summit meeting has a tradition where on the last day the members wear traditional dress of the host nation for a photo-op. There’s a picture of Bush standing next to (I think) Hu Jintao in traditional God-Hating Communist Chinese dress somewhere and the whole lot of them dressed up like vaqueros when they visited Mexico.

    And yes, I think gay cowboy attire was the order for the US visit.

    I like the way Obama addressed that whole photo issue today:

    “At this stage of the campaign, there are going to be dust-ups, particularly at the staff level,” Obama responded. “Certainly I don’t think that photograph was circulated to enhance my candidacy. I think that’s fair to say. Do I think it’s reflective of Sen. Clinton’s approach to campaigning? Probably not.”

    I like it — he’s not wallowing in the gutter, but he’s also letting the Clinton campaign know that he doesn’t trust them as far as he can throw them.

You go run those — run that stuff again of him walking across there with the parachute. He has just won every woman’s vote in the United States of America.

    BTW – I always wanted one that was “distinguished”

    Let’s have Jen weigh in too if she’s really a woman.

    If she’s really a woman? Why would that matter?

    SEXIST!!

    You know, all those women who say size doesn’t count—they’re all liars.

    Follow Sam Kinison’s advice and roll ’em over.

    Suddenly you’ll be HUGE!

    And I wonder if Barack Hussein Obama understands the danger inflicted upon the world by Muslim male extremists. His father was a Muslim. His mother was an atheist from Kansas. He was raised in madrassas in Indonesia. […]

    You mean Barack Mohammed Hussein Obama? […]

    Obama is a sleeper cell because his parents are Muslim and — and his — […]

    — why isn’t the church attended by Barack Mohammed Hussein Obama relevant to the electorate, especially when it’s a black separatist movement in the city of Chicago. […]

    And whether you think this country is ready for Barack Mohammed Hussein Obama to be the Democratic nominee.

    So, if Barack Mohammed Hussein Obama can be elected the president of this country in these difficult terrorist times, it would be a shock…

    Apparently these lines are from a warmup speech at a McCain rally.

    Has this been noted, posted about yet?

    Discuss.

    So McCain is plagiarizing Hillary now?

    ThymeZone, they seem to be from Bill Cunningham’s radio show. Media Matters reported on it back in January.

    He did introduce McCain at a rally and in the introduction speech he used Obama’s middle name repeatedly. McCain did apologize, but he probably should vet those how introduce him a bit better of their hatred will spill over on him…

    Ah, well, McCain probably thinks that he can employ the tried and true GOP noise machine to do this dirty work for him, while he appears to be above it all.

    I think the country is ready to move on from that. I predict that this kind of smear stuff will backfire.

    I can’t lower my McCain vote total prediction for November any further than the 35% I have him at now.

    Or, can I?

    After McCain apologized, Cunningham withdrew his support. He now says he’ll support Clinton…

    Personally I don’t care about this, as long as it won’t happen again. McCain apologized and he apologized fast. Compare it with how Clinton handled something like this.

    Also, I wonder what Limbaugh thinks…

    What gets me is he was reported to be a fighter pilot in training at one point, well, until the coke caught up with him and he was grounded… but in any event, he should have instinctively known to loosen the straps before getting out of the cockpit (no pun intended). Note that no others standing around on the deck deign to look like total pilot-dorks. It’s not the icky fake manliness thing that gets me, it’s that he’s dumb enough to intentionally look like such a loser doofus.

    I say, somebody get Hillary, Barack and a ruler together in the same room, and let’s settle this once and for all.

    Hey, that’s not fair. You have to measure testicular weight.

    I’ll put my money on Hillary in that case.

    Yes, indeed, Bush will put on the cloth of any country that puts money into his pocket.

    Viet Nam is just one of the many.

    It is a pity, given our long history of “involvement” with Viet Nam, the huge numbers of Vietnamese immigrants who have come here (as a direct consequence of that “involvement”), that you could characterize the “ao dai” as “girly clothes”.

    Those “girly clothes” are the ceremonial dress of the MEN (and women) who whipped American ass, back in the day. On the battlefield…

    And who are now successfully competing economically with us.

    That’s Viet Nam today.

    You gotta see it to believe it.

    Ok, to start saying Bush looks like a girl is an insult to girls.

    Rumor has it he’s sending a River Dance troupe to Tora Bora.

    Yay! The Republicans are going to Tora Bora! I won’t have to call them chicken hawks, anymore!

    wobbly, I got married in those girly clothes.

    Course, that’s a different day and a different battlefield.

    Are you in VN now?
