Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Today’s gop: why go just far enough when too far is right there?

Beware of advice from anyone for whom Democrats are “they” and not “we.”

Fuck these fucking interesting times.

Find someone who loves you the way trump and maga love traitors.

Never give a known liar the benefit of the doubt.

Damn right I heard that as a threat.

When I was faster i was always behind.

Republicans want to make it harder to vote and easier for them to cheat.

Republicans: slavery is when you own me. freedom is when I own you.

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

Fundamental belief of white supremacy: white people are presumed innocent, minorities are presumed guilty.

Perhaps you mistook them for somebody who gives a damn.

Tick tock motherfuckers!

The low info voters probably won’t even notice or remember by their next lap around the goldfish bowl.

This really is a full service blog.

The snowflake in chief appeared visibly frustrated when questioned by a reporter about egg prices.

This fight is for everything.

Humiliatingly small and eclipsed by the derision of millions.

The cruelty is the point; the law be damned.

Lick the third rail, it tastes like chocolate!

I’m starting to think Jesus may have made a mistake saving people with no questions asked.

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

Republicans cannot even be trusted with their own money.

fuckem (in honor of the late great efgoldman)

    Not watching the debate, the head story on both CNN and MSNBC is about Joe Paterno and the Penn State horror story.

    I know we’ve talked about it ad nosum, but this story is just heartwrenching and disgusting. No one who see a child being harmed should take a blind eye and not go above and beyond to report and ensure the child and future children’s protection from a predator.

    Damn, football victories do not take precedent over the protection and well-being of our children…I dont’ care how many wins you have!

    A colleague of mine is at the debate. he’s a journalism student and won tickets. He gets to do a meet/greet with the candidates. He’s a young Dem so I’m looking forward to his impressions.

    This is some new definition of “win” — from opposite world, maybe? — with which I’m not familiar. It sounds like torture.

    Of all the things one could win — Powerball, a trip to Bermuda, a horse race, etc — meeting the Republican primary candidates has to rank right down there with STDs.

    I’ll be the dufus with a camera. Maybe a mortgage pig shirt if I can find it. I hope you appreciate that I’m giving up valuable Skyrim time for this.

    Look at it this way: he’s a part time custodian and the alternative to the debate was a shift cleaning 11 bathrooms in an elementary school. I know, tossup.

    I’ll figure out some way to make myself recognizable.

    You’ll be the guy pretending to be Reality Check?

    That pink leather jacket you wore in San Francisco worked pretty well.

    We need to have a Balloon Juice meetup in Louisville or Cinn. I know there are several of us in the area.
