Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

An unpunished coup is a training exercise.

Republicans in disarray!

At some point, the ability to learn is a factor of character, not IQ.

Even though I know this is a bad idea, I’m off to do it anyway!

Putin must be throwing ketchup at the walls.

If West Virginia and San Francisco had a love child.

The rest of the comments were smacking Boebert like she was a piñata.

There are a lot more evil idiots than evil geniuses.

Roe isn’t about choice, it’s about freedom.

The current Supreme Court is a rogue court. Very dangerous.

I conferred with the team and they all agree – still not tired of winning!

Despite his magical powers, I don’t think Trump is thinking this through, to be honest.

“Can i answer the question? No you can not!”

fuckem (in honor of the late great efgoldman)

“Look, it’s not against the rules anywhere, but a black woman with power was dating and there has to be something wrong with that.”

“Everybody’s entitled to be an idiot.”

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

Maybe you would prefer that we take Joelle’s side in ALL CAPS?

The poor and middle-class pay taxes, the rich pay accountants, the wealthy pay politicians.

Someone should tell Republicans that violence is the last refuge of the incompetent, or possibly the first.

Israel is using food as a weapon of war. Unforgivable.

“What are Republicans afraid of?” Everything.

Russian mouthpiece, go fuck yourself.

If you tweet it in all caps, that makes it true!

    Most wanted man live has just been arrested.

    Whitey Bulger, who was portrayed in the Oscar winning move, “The Departed” was captured tonight in Santa Monica.

    In the past six weeks, Obama has taken out the nation’s top two most wanted men. Inspector Clouseau Bush had 8 years and could only manage to choke on pretzels. Obama has only been in office, 2 years, 5 months, and 2 days.

    I’m just glad that with balloon-juice around I need never mourn the passing of Encyclopædia Dramatica.

    Hilarious

    South Carolina will not fund the state GOP’s first-in-the-South presidential primary in February, leaving officials scrambling to sort out who will pay for it.
    …
    The Republican Party insists the primary will go on, even if the GOP must come up with as much as $1.5 million to run it.
    …
    The party could go back to running the primary with paper ballots and volunteers, which is how it was done until 2008.

    Sure paper ballots and volunteers in South Carolina? What could possibly go wrong…

    Nellcote, Washington got rid of primaries too. If the parties want to choose the one true standard bearer, they should have to pay to do it. It’s not as if political parties are technically needed in the electoral process.

    We use the jungle primary now. It will be interesting to see if the parties can get their shit together well enough to line up the generals in advantageous ways.

    Yeah, after the Pakistani Ambassador embarrassed Barack by pointing out our inability to capture Bulger, we really had to do something. It just goes to show: don’t try to show up the Kenyan in Chief.

    @Roger Moore: Ratko Mladic was arrested 4 weeks ago, Gingrich’s campaign imploded, Trump imploded, Wiener imploded, the Miami Heat imploded, today Palin quit her bus tour in mid term.

    The last 6 weeks have been a pretty tough on despots.

    It was the previous president’s policies that allowed this administration to catch the most wanted man in America.

    GAK! I love Weird Al! I have since I first heard him back in the early 80’s & I have most of his albums; some are on cassette tape – antiques now :)

    I was working a contract out in CA in the late 90’s, around “Bad Hair Day” and happened to bump into him. I am not one to faun over ‘stars’ but I did shake his hand & tell him I liked his work. He stopped & actually just talked for a while, he seemed like a genuinely nice guy. I’m glad Gaga agreed to let him do this & not surprised that he is donating the proceeds.

    And don’t forget Clinton wanted to take UBL out in late ’99 but decided against it because he was afraid it would be seen as political & the Republicans would use it against Gore.
