Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

I like you, you’re my kind of trouble.

I know this must be bad for Joe Biden, I just don’t know how.

Nothing worth doing is easy.

Prediction: the GOP will rethink its strategy of boycotting future committees.

I’d like to think you all would remain faithful to me if i ever tried to have some of you killed.

Come on, media. you have one job. start doing it.

Hot air and ill-informed banter

“Squeaker” McCarthy

When someone says they “love freedom”, rest assured they don’t mean yours.

Their freedom requires your slavery.

Second rate reporter says what?

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

Infrastructure week. at last.

Too often we confuse noise with substance. too often we confuse setbacks with defeat.

You can’t attract Republican voters. You can only out organize them.

Pessimism assures that nothing of any importance will change.

Jesus, Mary, & Joseph how is that election even close?

After roe, women are no longer free.

It’s always darkest before the other shoe drops.

Authoritarian republicans are opposed to freedom for the rest of us.

Balloon Juice has never been a refuge for the linguistically delicate.

When do the post office & the dmv weigh in on the wuhan virus?

Tick tock motherfuckers!

Battle won, war still ongoing.

I Seriously Wish I Had Written This

TBOGG:

Joe Sestak asked to look other way when Israel invades Lebanon, PA.

Some of the same wonderful folks from PNAC who encouraged America to take the lemons of 9/11 and make AttackIraqAde are very upset with Pennsylvania Senate candidate Joe Sestak because Sestak is not supportive enough of Israel County which is located, I believe, in the Middle Eastern part of the state, possibly close to Dauphin…

I’m still laughing.

    There’s a big rooster out there too. Maybe Sestak can barter it for healthcare as well.

    So Joe likes Israel, he just doesn’t love Israel because he doesn’t understand the dynamic that makes Israel America’s BFF. That is; America gives money to Israel and Israel, in turn, gladly takes it.

    That whole thing was awesome.

    Well, if only we can get Bill Kristol to predict Sestak’s defeat on the basis of this issue…

    Doesn’t April Mellody have an assistant named June Song? I know August Tune is one of his legal aides, maybe, also

    I hate to be the downer here, and sorry if this was discussed before, but the ad this group has put together to hit Sestak really is cringe-worthy. It’s almost as bad as this Frum post on the same group, in which one assumes David must not have actually watched the ad he links to.

    I could say that about pretty much everything out of the fertile mind of TBogg.

    Is there any other country in the world where professing undying support of a foreign state is a perquisite for elected office?

    It’s all awesome, but the tag is the finishing touch: “Pass the douchies on the right hand side.”

    “We’re the pro-Israel wing of the pro-Israel community,” said Kristol.

    That doesn’t even make any sense. If this is the sort of shit that the founding of Israel has led to, then I’m going to say it was a mistake.

    “We’re the pro-Israel wing of the pro-Israel community,” said Kristol.

    Bill, honey, have you ever tried… not being gay a traitor?

    I’m still laughing.

    TBogg is one of the bloggers who can consistently have me laughing about stuff they write days after I first read it – the others being Thers at Whiskey Fire and Edroso the Magnificent. I wish I could turn a phrase like they do.

    Remember, you’re only “pro-Israel” if you want their government to be bombing and starving the shit out of Palestinians and any of their neighbors all the time while waving a giant “FUUUUUUUUUCK YOUUUU” sign to any two-state solution before you’ve stolen so much of the West Bank and East Jerusalem that Palestinians will have to stack themselves up 3 high in order to fit on the single tiny piece of garbage dump land they’re left with. That’s true loyalty.

    @PeakVT #10:

    Can’t think of another (assuming you meant to type “prerequisite” rather than “perquisite”).

    @PeakVT:

    Is there any other country in the world where professing undying support of a foreign state is a perquisite for elected office?

    To name six: East Germany, Poland, Czechoslovakia, Hungary, Romania, and Bulgaria, ca. 1945-1989.

    Have A Tequila
    (Sung to the tune of “Hava Nagila”)

    Have a tequila,
    Have a tequila,
    Have a tequila,
    It’s open bar.

    Have a tequila,
    Have a tequila,
    Have a tequila,
    It’s open bar.

    Have a martini now.
    Have a martini now.
    Have a martini now.
    It’s open bar.

    Have a martini now.
    Have a martini now.
    Have a martini now.
    It’s open bar.

    My head… my head’s aching.
    My head’s aching, so’s my stomach.
    My head’s aching, so’s my stomach.
    My head’s aching, so’s my stomach.
    My head’s aching,
    My head’s aching,
    So’s my sto-o-o-o-mach.
