Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

An almost top 10,000 blog!

That’s my take and I am available for criticism at this time.

Just because you believe it, that doesn’t make it true.

The arc of history bends toward the same old fuckery.

Putin dreamed of ending NATO, and now it’s Finnish-ed.

Putin must be throwing ketchup at the walls.

You cannot shame the shameless.

… pundit janitors mopping up after the GOP

Thanks for reminding me that Van Jones needs to be slapped.

Cole is on a roll !

Motto for the House: Flip 5 and lose none.

Let’s finish the job.

Accountability, motherfuckers.

No one could have predicted…

The cruelty is the point; the law be damned.

Not all heroes wear capes.

A last alliance of elves and men. also pet photos.

Optimism opens the door to great things.

He really is that stupid.

Happy indictment week to all who celebrate!

The GOP is a fucking disgrace.

An unpunished coup is a training exercise.

Republicans want to make it harder to vote and easier for them to cheat.

Chutkan laughs. Lauro sits back down.

    *Clinton presses congressional Dems on gas-tax holiday*

    http://www.thecarpetbaggerreport.com/archives/15404.html#more-15404

    After several days of back and forth between Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama over whether a summer-long elimination of the gas tax would help or hurt, Clinton took a hard line, asking her colleagues in Congress to take sides.

    “I believe it would be important to get every member of Congress on record,” Clinton told supporters at a rally in southern Indiana. “Do they stand with the hard-pressed Americans who are trying to pay their gas bills at the gas station or do they once again stand with the oil companies?

    “I want to know where people stand and I want them to tell us, are they with us or against us when it comes to taking on the oil companies?” she added.

    Economists … say the oil companies may end up the biggest beneficiaries, while the aid to families wouldn’t be enough to buy a $35 backpack.

    The trouble with the plan, they say, is that oil prices are rising because of low supplies, and companies will continue to charge the average $3.60 a gallon and just pocket the money that would have gone to federal taxes.

    “There are times that a president will take a position that a broad support of quote-unquote experts agree with,” [Clinton] spokesperson Howard Wolfson said. “And there are times they will take a position that quote-unquote experts do not agree with.”

    Remember, though: Clinton is soooooo much better than the Republicans whose campaigns she is imitating.

    I’m chipping in a few more dollars to help Joe Andrew get his Indiana citizenship. I thought about giving it to the Hillary campaign, tho, because I LMAO watching Countdown last night.

    Heavenly Father, hear my prayer. Please banish from your earthly kingdom any further use of the phrase “throw him under the bus.” Amen.

    The X-26 Taser video released Tuesday shows Piskura rolling on the sidewalk while the Taser was deployed for approximately 10 seconds.

    Sweet Buddha, on what planet is this considered SOP?

    I’m here. I hope that helps you get to +2!

    On a related hippy note: there’s a dream interpretation group tonight! I’ll see if I can get a person or two to donate.

    dream interpretation? Oh! I had a dream the other day, Cheney was bent over a bar, and the Pope was spanking him with a paddle and throwing holy water on him. Cheney was just smirking the whole time. In the background the TV was playing and it was some state of the union address by Bush. My only guess is that this is what happens when Cheney is at an “undisclosed location”.

    Hippy Chicks rule. Patchouli and all. Reminds me of all the Dead shows I went to in my reckless youth.

    Youth is wasted on the young, so they say.

    Oxford police Chief Stephan Schwein declined to comment on Thursday.

    Schwein? Schwein?? A guy named that is the chief of police in a case like this? I don’t know whether to think that’s ironic or apt.

    Thank you. That is just one of the dumbest things ever. I mean, the Watergate scandal wasn’t about water, so why do people call everything “gate”? I’m waiting for a “Gategate” scandal to start, and maybe that would kill it.

    I don’t wear patchouli. I wear lavender or sweet rain.

    One thing that always puzzled me about hippy chicks is why they all seem to smell like sandalwood or some kind of incense.

    It gets my spider sense tingling because when I smell that I know there’s a hippy chick around. j/k :-)
