Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

White supremacy is terrorism.

Speaker Mike Johnson is a vile traitor to the House and the Constitution.

A thin legal pretext to veneer over their personal religious and political desires.

All hail the time of the bunny!

Putting aside our relentless self-interest because the moral imperative is crystal clear.

No Kings: Americans standing in the way of bad history saying “Oh, Fuck No!”

Consistently wrong since 2002

Republicans are radicals, not conservatives.

Hell hath no fury like a farmer bankrupted.

Radicalized white males who support Trump are pitching a tent in the abyss.

Conservatism: there are people the law protects but does not bind and others who the law binds but does not protect.

They spent the last eight months firing professionals and replacing them with ideologues.

Trumpflation is an intolerable hardship for every American, and it’s Trump’s fault.

Damn right I heard that as a threat.

She burned that motherfucker down, and I am so here for it. Thank you, Caroline Kennedy.

Usually wrong but never in doubt

Stop using mental illness to avoid talking about armed white supremacy.

Human rights are not a matter of opinion!

And now I have baud making fun of me. this day can’t get worse.

If you can’t control your emotions, someone else will.

When tyranny becomes law, rebellion becomes duty. ~Thomas Jefferson

Republicans firmly believe having an abortion is a very personal, very private decision between a woman and J.D. Vance.

Lick the third rail, it tastes like chocolate!

Whatever happens next week, the fight doesn’t end.

Michigan Republican Lawmaker Is Pretty Sure Obama is a Secret Muslim

Michigan Republican Douchebag Dave Agema wants to add “Muslim” — “terrorist,” too, probably — to President Obama’s ever-growing list of treasonous offenses because Douchebag Dave doesn’t believe that Obama ever stopped being Muslim:

It’s disingenuous to say one time you’re a Christian and then say another time you’re a Muslim.”

So basically, President Obama is a Muslim gay crackhead until he proves he’s not. And, of course, any proof that he’s not a Muslim gay crackhead is further proof that he is totally a Muslim gay crackhead.

Got it.

    isn’t the appropriate rejoinder to the “BUT HE’S A MUSLIM!”, “Um, if he is, so what?”

    I would say the same is probably good for gay, except for the whole attractive wife and lovely kids thing kinda eliminates that argument anyway.

    Again, from that Pew polling cited earlier, 72% of Obama voters say they feel they can vote FOR him rather than just against the other guy, whereas only 38% of Romney voters feel like they’ll be voting FOR him.

    They may really, really hate Obama, but they really, really don’t like Mitt Romney.

    Sheesh.

    @Omnes Omnibus: No, it’s among each camp’s voters:

    Of Obama voters, 72% feel they can say they’re voting for him, while 22% feel like they’re mostly voting against Romney.

    Of Romney voters, 38% feel they can say they’re voting for him, while 58% feel like they’re mostly voting against Obama.

    All it takes to keep an omnipotent being out of school is to say no. No wonder “believe in me and you shall have eternal life” is a useless phrase. Since when did wingers become atheists?

    They just can’t stand it. It’s absolutely KILLING them that this man, this BLACK man, won the job and is doing it. They’ve done everything to deny him, and still he stands. They’ve slandered his birth, his parentage, his education, his wife, his kids – still he stands. He beat them, and he’s going to do it again. Let them go nuts. As a matter of fact, FUCK THEM.

    I’ve taken to responding to people who say Obama is a Muslim by saying “He’s obviously a better Christian than you are. He’s been trying to ensure that poor people don’t suffer and die because they can’t afford health care. All you do is spread lies about people because you don’t like their politics. I think you just worship Satan and pretend that he’s Christ, don’t you?” Immensely satisfying.

    Obama holds that any adult male killed by a drone fired missile was necessarily a combatant – even when the Pentagon and CIA have no specific knowledge of the identities or activities of those killed.

    Come down of the high-horse, ABL, it’s not a good look for you.

    @Linda Featheringill:

    IMO, it’ll happen when the Republican Party is forced to take a stance that’s too pro immigrant (combine the growth in the Latino vote with their need for cheap labor). That happens, the Angry White Conservative base breaks away and forms its own third party for one or two cycles, and the Republican coalition splits down the middle just like the Democratic one did in 1968.
