Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Everybody saw this coming.

… riddled with inexplicable and elementary errors of law and fact

When do we start airlifting the women and children out of Texas?

Hot air and ill-informed banter

Some judge needs to shut this circus down soon.

New McCarthy, same old McCarthyism.

Putin must be throwing ketchup at the walls.

When your entire life is steeped in white supremacy, equality feels like discrimination.

The willow is too close to the house.

Reality always lies in wait for … Democrats.

The arc of history bends toward the same old fuckery.

Republicans don’t trust women.

The words do not have to be perfect.

Imperialist aggressors must be defeated, or the whole world loses.

Narcissists are always shocked to discover other people have agency.

Not all heroes wear capes.

Whatever happens next week, the fight doesn’t end.

I’ve spoken to my cat about this, but it doesn’t seem to do any good.

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

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

Republicans seem to think life begins at the candlelight dinner the night before.

An almost top 10,000 blog!

Conservatism: there are some people the law protects but does not bind and others who the law binds but does not protect.

if you can’t see it, then you are useless in the fight to stop it.

    Well, just be thankful Bush called Pope Benedict by an acceptable name, and didn’t resort to calling him something like “Robey-robe” or “Sprockets”.

    Can someone please tell me what’s so funny? Some of us are YouTube disabled.

    Did he clown on Eggs? Did he play Pull My Finger with the Pontiff? Offer him some piece of tail serving in the WH who puts the “ass” in assistant secretary?

    Maybe “Lil Bush” is closer to reality than I previously thought.

    Is it coincidence that the Pope sounds like Dr. Ruth?

    “Awesome speech.” Oh, God, will January 2009 never come?

    After the Pope’s speech, Bush got up to shake the Pope’s hand and said “Thank you, Your Holiness. Awsome speech.”

    Can someone please keep him inside until Jan 09?

    It’s about the most that can be expected. At least it wasn’t “wicked awesome.”

    Alas, John, you are so correct. Is there some way the president can be kept under adult supervision? Dumbass will be a fratboy til the day he dies, I suppose.

    Well, at least Bush didn’t snap the Pope from behind with a wet towel. In public, anyway. He’s grown during his time as prez.

    If the Pope wasn’t Wearing that hat, Bush would have surely rubbed his head.

    I thought you were joking.

    Then I played it.

    Oh. My. God. He actually told the Pope he gave an awesome speech. Everything but the high five.

    How do they let him out in public?

    It’s not a big deal that Bush said that, of course, but it is funny considering all the blather from conservatives in January 2001 about how “the grownups are in charge now.” I’m sure that those two words would also draw some not-too-pleased commentary from right-wing blogs if a Democratic president had said them. I doubt any such commentary has been or will be written from said blogs.
