Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Their freedom requires your slavery.

When your entire life is steeped in white supremacy, equality feels like discrimination.

Is it irresponsible to speculate? It is irresponsible not to.

Fuck these fucking interesting times.

If senate republicans had any shame, they’d die of it.

Bark louder, little dog.

How can republicans represent us when they don’t trust women?

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

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

Following reporting rules is only for the little people, apparently.

Since when do we limit our critiques to things we could do better ourselves?

This fight is for everything.

If you are still in the GOP, you are an extremist.

Why is it so hard for them to condemn hate?

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

The republican caucus is already covering themselves with something, and it’s not glory.

Let’s not be the monsters we hate.

Republicans seem to think life begins at the candlelight dinner the night before.

When I decide to be condescending, you won’t have to dream up a fantasy about it.

The party of Reagan has become the party of Putin.

Consistently wrong since 2002

The words do not have to be perfect.

Let us savor the impending downfall of lawless scoundrels who richly deserve the trouble barreling their way.

Never entrust democracy to any process that requires republicans to act in good faith.

Concerning this weekend’s Emergency Pet Bleg:

I want to thank everyone again for all the donations to help Penny. It has been a more than usual hectic weekend for animal rescue in our area. This has caused me to be behind in my personal thank you notes to ALL who took the time, had the compassion and caring and generosity to help Penny. I promise that I will be in touch with everyone within the next 48 hours via email.
__
As mentioned before, will give updates on results of her surgery and her recovery process with new pictures too when available.

With gratitude,
Evelyn

Evelyn adds “Also trying to figure out how to get a calendar together ASAP for 2012. Will keep you posted.”

    Good thing the rapid cancellation of the eponymous television show wasn’t an omen.

    Our tenant and next door neighbors have a giant, sweet old monster black dog who has just been diagnosed with a tumor on it’s spleen. They can’t afford the operation,and even if they could it wouldn’t help him much. They have asked if I can look after him at times they can’t be there because they don’t want him to die alone. dang

    @Raven (formerly stuckinred): How sad. There are times when I think it’s okay to let a dog die peacefully and without pain. If the dog is in pain, I do hope they will let the vet give it an injection.

    btw..did you get a x-ray?

    OT..I just turned on NewsHour so missed the beginning but I did hear a jerk say “did you know that the 99 percent earn $500,000 or less”? Yeah for 90 percent of those the average is $31,000 asshole.

    @JPL: They did get an xray and it confirmed the tumor. It’s touchy ground, I don’t want to give too much advice I will just respond when asked.

    @JPL: Oh, me. I went to the doctor and she and I agreed there is little to be done. It is incredibly ugly, the discoloration has spread all over the top and side of the foot but it really doesn’t hurt that much.I think I got really lucky, you know, like when I fractured my vertebra!

    I’m so glad. I would love another calendar.

    @Raven (formerly stuckinred): Yeah, dude. How’s YOUR foot? And, sorry to hear about the neighbor’s dog. Sigh.

    @asiangrrlMN: I’m squared away, I was able to swim by pushing off on the good wheel so it’ll just take a little time and I’ll be back in the ring! thx

    It’s a tough call when an elderly animal gets sick. Blessings on you for being with him.

    I listened to Howard Stern this morning and he couldn’t understand why the protesters he sees on the news at OWS do not articulate very well what they are there for. I wish he could have seen this guy.
