Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Jack Smith: “Why did you start campaigning in the middle of my investigation?!”

I see no possible difficulties whatsoever with this fool-proof plan.

JFC, are there no editors left at that goddamn rag?

The republican speaker is a slippery little devil.

Every one of the “Roberts Six” lied to get on the court.

This blog will pay for itself.

This fight is for everything.

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

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

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

Republicans don’t trust women.

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

Schmidt just says fuck it, opens a tea shop.

Don’t expect peaches from an apple tree.

I was promised a recession.

In short, I come down firmly on all sides of the issue.

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

Every reporter and pundit should have to declare if they ever vacationed with a billionaire.

Republicans: The threats are dire, but my tickets are non-refundable!

Motto for the House: Flip 5 and lose none.

Let’s show the world that autocracy can be defeated.

The lights are all blinking red.

“Can i answer the question? No you can not!”

Battle won, war still ongoing.

Things I Wish I Had Written

Every now and then I stumble across something I wish I had written. This is one of them:

Ordinarily, this is the sort of association that might be disastrous for a presidential campaign, but I’m given to understand that Barack Obama consorts with Angry, Crazed Negroes, so I expect there will be other things for the press to discuss while they’re eating Butterfingers on the Straight Talk Express.

Awesome.

    Where “Given To Understand” means “Informed By Clinton Staffers”.

    The only change I’d make is:
    “…so I expect there will be other things for the press to discuss with their Butterfingers on the Straight Talk Express.”
    …because the press seems to use more lube on the Straight Talk than candy.

    Luckily for both Clinton and McCain, most Americans have no idea how the gutting of Glass-Steagal, signed off on by Bill himself, led to the current economic disaster. OTOH, if you’ve ever wanted a ski boat, a motor home, or a Harley you can pick one up now for fifty cents on the dollar.

    Well I thought this one was pretty good, myself:

    The 2006 Democratic Congress is even a more feeble crew than Kerensky’s regime.

    Found here. Of course, Dem gutlessness and jaw-dropping stupidity didn’t exactly begin with the ’06 vintage….
