Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Do not shrug your shoulders and accept the normalization of untruths.

They are lying in pursuit of an agenda.

President Musk and Trump are both poorly raised, coddled 8 year old boys.

Keep the Immigrants and deport the fascists!

“Until such time as the world ends, we will act as though it intends to spin on.”

Since we are repeating ourselves, let me just say fuck that.

These are not very smart people, and things got out of hand.

They punch you in the face and then start crying because their fist hurts.

How any woman could possibly vote for this smug smarmy piece of misogynistic crap is beyond understanding.

I don’t recall signing up for living in a dystopian sci-fi novel.

You are so fucked. Still, I wish you the best of luck.

The republican speaker is a slippery little devil.

“Alexa, change the president.”

Pessimism assures that nothing of any importance will change.

Impressively dumb. Congratulations.

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

The fundamental promise of conservatism all over the world is a return to an idealized past that never existed.

We need to vote them all out and restore sane Democratic government.

This really is a full service blog.

No offense, but this thread hasn’t been about you for quite a while.

Something needs to be done about our bogus SCOTUS.

Fear and negativity are contagious, but so is courage!

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

Also, are you sure you want people to rate your comments?

    No economic news today, dammit. Turn it into weather channel for once, with sunny outlook for the entire day.

    EDIT: Just so you get it right, make it sunny, not bbq sunny, 60-70 is a good way to go.. Now proceed.

    Anne, watch this video of Palin

    youtube.com/watch?v=uKflKzmfRCw&feature=player_embedded

    Notice how dismissive she is when Mrs. Gustafson says that she is a teacher. Bratty daughter shows herself to be a Sarah clone.

    Shannyn Moore’s HuffPo article which highlights the video:

    On the wikileaks thing, can somebody tell me why a teenage private was allowed so much access to so much material? I’ve seen this as a feature of our system for the past several years, and figured that on one hand, we’re classifying too much information while placing too much of it into the hands of the inherently unreliable.

    @Michael:
    So, what do we do,.. hire baby boomers for the job? If a teenage private can be allowed to enlist in the military and kill humans, what is so sacrosanct about handling classified information.

    I’m sure i’m not the first to mention this, but after weeks and weeks of the website running smoothly, once again the center column is bleeding through running underneath the right hand column and not breaking appropriately. (Internet Explorer).

    Thanks!
