Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

A democracy can’t function when people can’t distinguish facts from lies.

… pundit janitors mopping up after the GOP

Fuck these fucking interesting times.

Since when do we limit our critiques to things we could do better ourselves?

Not all heroes wear capes.

Pessimism assures that nothing of any importance will change.

The worst democrat is better than the best republican.

Our job is not to persuade republicans but to defeat them.

So it was an October Surprise A Day, like an Advent calendar but for crime.

This blog will pay for itself.

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

“Squeaker” McCarthy

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

If you are still in the GOP, you are an extremist.

“What are Republicans afraid of?” Everything.

In my day, never was longer.

Schmidt just says fuck it, opens a tea shop.

We still have time to mess this up!

Let us savor the impending downfall of lawless scoundrels who richly deserve the trouble barreling their way.

Only Democrats have agency, apparently.

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

Let there be snark.

They’re not red states to be hated; they are voter suppression states to be fixed.

Happy indictment week to all who celebrate!

Macaca The Magazine

This post is in: Republican Stupidity, Did You Know John McCain Was A POW?

Via memeorandum, the National Black Republican Association has placed fifty billboards around Denver:

That by itself is funny, but if you want to see the NBRA really bring the funny, you have to read their magazine, “The Black Republican” (.pdf). Apparently there is only one, and her name is Deborah Honeycutt. Other topics in this issue inclue why Democrats should apologize to blacks and the myth of Republican Racism.

Hey- you gotta start somewhere, I guess.

    From MLK’s autobiography

    JULY 16, 1964
    King asserts that nomination of Senator Barry Goldwater by Republicans will aid racists

    Thomas Jefferson was a Republican, too. Well, a Democratic-Republican, but why be so picky?

    That billboard emphasized the wrong word. It should read:

    “Martin Luther King Jr. Was A Republican”

    Jesus Christ. NAMBRA received an ass-ectomy the last time they ran this ad but I guess once wasn’t enough.

    Even if he had been a Republican 40 years ago, that logic is idiocy.

    Lincoln was a Republican 150 years ago. How many of the Republicans’ racist Southern base wants to contemplate that?

    George W. Bush and John S. McCain are Republicans NOW, and they’re diametrically opposed to the kinds of values King espoused.
