Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

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

Republicans are radicals, not conservatives.

But frankly mr. cole, I’ll be happier when you get back to telling us to go fuck ourselves.

Republicans do not pay their debts.

I really should read my own blog.

The next time the wall street journal editorial board speaks the truth will be the first.

“More of this”, i said to the dog.

We are aware of all internet traditions.

I’d hate to be the candidate who lost to this guy.

Only Democrats have agency, apparently.

A snarling mass of vitriolic jackals

A sufficient plurality of insane, greedy people can tank any democratic system ever devised, apparently.

Republicans are the party of chaos and catastrophe.

The willow is too close to the house.

Wow, you are pre-disappointed. How surprising.

Come on, man.

… riddled with inexplicable and elementary errors of law and fact

Consistently wrong since 2002

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

We still have time to mess this up!

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

It’s always darkest before the other shoe drops.

A Senator Walker would also be an insult to reason, rationality, and decency.

Pessimism assures that nothing of any importance will change.

I’m Not Following Up On Anything

But I thought you all deserved this:

With Allah as my witness, I wanted to give you Elvis Costello, Van Morrison, some Little Feat, and a bunch of other stuff, but you know… shit happens.

If it makes you feel any better, I’m pretty convinced my head is going to hurt tomorrow.

BTW- Things went downhill from the diet cranberry limeade.

    I came for the dick jokes, but stayed for the political commentary. Perhaps….I….should rephrase that.

    OK, I came for the political commentary, but stayed for the dick. Jokes!

    No, that’s not it.

    John, I have a request for tomorrow (well, today actually). You know we’re all going to be live-blogging starting around 1:00 pm, which I think is when C-SPAN’s coverage starts, right through the debate and the vote (early evening). And you know what happens to threads here when a lot of us are posting fast-and-furious (I remind you of the gold medal hockey game and the Super Bowl). It just gets really unwieldy when a thread has more than about 100 posts — hard to refresh, crashes frquently. So my request is, please, could you or one of the front pagers set up automatic new HCR threads about, I dunno, maybe a new one every 30 minutes or so. HCR 1, HCR 2, etc. That way you all won’t have to keep monitoring things all through the afternoon. I don’t know how that works technically but it seems as though it should be pretty easy.

    Thanks! Hope your hangover isn’t too bad.

    You’re not supposed to pop champagne till it passes, John.

    Tempting fate, remember?

    But right now, you need to hit the Jackal switch.

    the margaret cho “my puss” provides a nice response, and the “my balls” vid isn’t bad either, ladies, i believe its your turn.

    WTF? Nobody deserves that. Well, maybe a few some all of the teabaggers do.

    Here’s something better (video quality sucks, though).

    That means the shoulder is really on the mend. You can’t drink if you’re afraid of doing damage.

    Things went downhill from the diet cranberry limeade.

    How is that even possible?

    Oh.My.God. There is apparently a whole genre of white boy rap songs about having a dick and being angry and comparing your angry, angry dick with other angry dicks. I blame Cheney.

    And I thought this was sui generis. The lyrics (expand the sidebar at the right) are actually surprisingly deft.
