Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

The real work of an opposition party is to oppose.

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

Let’s delete this post and never speak of this again.

SCOTUS: It’s not “bribery” unless it comes from the Bribery region of France. Otherwise, it’s merely “sparkling malfeasance”.

I did not have this on my fuck 2025 bingo card.

Putting aside our relentless self-interest because the moral imperative is crystal clear.

If you voted for Trump, you don’t get to speak about ethics, morals, or rule of law.

A snarling mass of vitriolic jackals

When I was faster i was always behind.

You cannot love your country only when you win.

This chaos was totally avoidable.

I really should read my own blog.

Republicans are the party of chaos and catastrophe.

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

Shut up, hissy kitty!

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

It’s a good piece. click on over. but then come back!!

“Loving your country does not mean lying about its history.”

If you can’t control your emotions, someone else will.

T R E 4 5 O N

Let the trolls come, and then ignore them. that’s the worst thing you can do to a troll.

There is no right way to do the wrong thing.

Trump should be leading, not lying.

Not so fun when the rabbit gets the gun, is it?

    I would never have believed it if I hadn’t seen it. He must have been singing them to sleep from when they were born.

    I forwarded this to one of my best friends. She is single, lives alone, and participates in Sheltie rescue. She has as many as eight of the loudest, yappingest dogs you can imagine living in the back room and yard of her house at any one time while she tries to find homes for them.

    Shelties BARK ALL THE TIME! NON-STOP!

    Drives me crazy when I go by to visit or help her move furniture and stuff.

    Thanks for sharing that, John.

    Once when I was very down I googled Youtube for “laughing babies”. I never admitted this to anyone till now, but, yeah: watching home videos of babies laughing is pretty much a guaranteed upper. Like butch guy singing puppies to sleep…

    OT: Listening to “Air Time on NPR.” The topic is what should Hillary and her supporters’ part be in the convention?” They are taking calls. The Clintonistas are dominating the phone calls. Needless to say, their idea is that the convention should be all about Hillary and her supporters until Obama is nominated on Friday. Sexism, sexism, sexism!
    Shoot me now.

    How the hell am I supposed to remain a cynical, bitter curmudgeon when you show me things like that?

    I sing to my dog to get him to go to sleep. I’ve been doing it long enough since he was a puppy it’s a training cue now.

    He comes over to me and I sing the same “Goodnight Greggie” song to him and he lays down and goes to sleep every time. He often won’t go to bed until I sing the song.
