Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

We still have time to mess this up!

Nothing worth doing is easy.

Thanks to your bullshit, we are now under siege.

If you thought you’d already seen people saying the stupidest things possible on the internet, prepare yourselves.

Oh FFS you might as well trust a 6-year-old with a flamethrower.

Sadly, there is no cure for stupid.

“But what about the lurkers?”

Republican also-rans: four mules fighting over a turnip.

We are builders in a constant struggle with destroyers. keep building.

Red lights blinking on democracy’s dashboard

Today in our ongoing national embarrassment…

Anyone who bans teaching American history has no right to shape America’s future.

Wow, I can’t imagine what it was like to comment in morse code.

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

Many life forms that would benefit from greater intelligence, sadly, do not have it.

Giving up is unforgivable.

The republican ‘Pastor’ of the House is an odious authoritarian little creep.

Baby steps, because the Republican Party is full of angry babies.

This isn’t Democrats spending madly. This is government catching up.

There is no compromise when it comes to body autonomy. You either have it or you do not.

Celebrate the fucking wins.

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

Those who are easily outraged are easily manipulated.

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

Does anyone know where I can get a transcript of the talking heads on CNN last night? I heard something that needs to be laughed at, but I can not find it.

    This should work. I’d imagine it’s under the election center heading.

    Whoa, the site’s a lil buggy this morning I see. Only took a dozen tries to get to the comments.

    I don’t know about bobblehead transcripts (looks like southpaw might have that covered for you), but if you want to shoot me an email w/ enough info, like the approximate time, what was said, and/or who said it, and I should be able to send you the clip or even up it to youtube for you if need be.

    You’ve got to be kidding me. Only one thing?

    This deserves to be laughed at:

    BLITZER: All right. We want to thank the band. Can’t praise this band of local musicians in Denver — they were put together — the music they’ve been providing, the vocals the guitarists, all the musicians. We want to thank them for helping us enjoy this Democratic National Convention. We want to welcome back —

    COOPER: Wolf Blitzer —

    BLITZER: This is a great band. I’ve been listening to this band and enjoying the music, the singers.

    COOPER: I want to thank the band. I don’t know.

    BLITZER: They’re terrific. Are you telling me, Anderson, you don’t like the band?

    COOPER: No, the band is fine. I’m just hearing Wolf Blitzer thanking the band.

    BLITZER: I love the band. Campbell, do you love the band?

    BROWN: I love the band. But I think we’re learning something new about you, Wolf. We never fully appreciated your appreciation for music.

    BLITZER: If Donna Brazile were here, we’d be dancing right now but she’s not here. Another time, another time we’ll be dancing.

    My first thought was that you could generate one at any time by eating some fiber.
