Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

President Biden is doing good where he can, and getting it done.

There are a lot more evil idiots than evil geniuses.

Bogus polls are all they’ve got left. Let’s bury these fuckers at the polls a year from now.

I did not have this on my fuck 2022 bingo card.

Red lights blinking on democracy’s dashboard

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

Dead end MAGA boomers crying about Talyor Swift being a Dem is my kind of music. Turn it up.

“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.”

They were going to turn on one another at some point. It was inevitable.

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

They think we are photo bombing their nice little lives.

Bad news for Ron DeSantis is great news for America.

Schmidt just says fuck it, opens a tea shop.

Hi god, it’s us. Thanks a heap, you’re having a great week and it’s only Thursday!

When you’re in more danger from the IDF than from Russian shelling, that’s really bad.

Democrats have delivered the Square Deal, the New Deal, the Fair Deal, and now… the Big Joe Biden Deal.

If you are in line to indict donald trump, stay in line.

I’ve spoken to my cat about this, but it doesn’t seem to do any good.

The revolution will be supervised.

Good lord, these people are nuts.

Republicans: The threats are dire, but my tickets are non-refundable!

Damn right I heard that as a threat.

We are builders in a constant struggle with destroyers. let’s win this.

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

    welp. graham has really stepped into, when Michelle Malkin’s minions are ragging him over that tweet.

    @DCPlod 8m
    …aaaand Twitchy’s going after @GrahamBlog over that tweet. Ginger, get the popcorn. …

    I think he just needs some MDMA. No need to ramp up to the majors yet.

    @MikeJ: Apparently, that’s what Mitch McConnell does when he has too much to drink. But the MDMA would at least give him some empathy.

    Just for s#its and giggles, I asked my wingnut brother to explain the Benghazi scandal to me, including which Obama officials committed misconduct, in what way, and what they hoped to achieve. The resulting word salad was worthy of Wasilla. I doubt Graham would do much better.

    If Graham thinks Benghazi is related to Ukraine, he must be tripping.

    I’m not experienced with recreational drugs, but I doubt that any amount of LSD I took could make me see a connection between Benghazi and Ukraine. Someone should challenge Senator Graham to show his work on this.

    @lamh36:

    when Michelle Malkin’s minions are ragging him over that tweet

    It’s not just her minions. Malkin is also going after him…

    @grahamblog , you are an embarrassment to all who truly care about Benghazi. Just stop

    Graham will surely be issuing a clarification on his idiocy before the sun sets.

    I have an idea! We can encourage further diplomatic reapproachment between all parties to the Ukrainian issue by having the UN Security Council pass a resolution declaring Lindsey Graham an idiot! Mad cackling in our time!

    Benghazi is to blame for everything bad that has happened since the dawn of time, according to the GOP.

    Schizophrenia is thought to be caused – in part – by unregulated serotonin signaling, so you might have a point there.

    Good a place as any to drop it in –

    Classic Ukrainian joke:

    Two shepherds are keeping watch on adjacent hills.

    One shepherd shouts to the other, “Yuri, did you hear the news?”

    The other answers, “What news, Leonid?”

    “The Russians have gone into outer space!”

    “All of them?”

    “No, no, just one.”

    “Why are you wasting my time, then?”

    Snowbillie Snookie weighs in on who she prefers–Obama v. Putin. No peeking.

    “Look, the perception of Obama, of him and his potency across the world is one of such weakness … People are looking at Putin as one who wrestles bears and drills for oil. They look at our president as one who wears mom jeans and equivocates and bloviates.”

    http://wonkette.com/#UESqXIoLuQ0yEeuR.99

    Pretty sure she mixed up her verbs in “wrestles bears and drills for oil.”

    ETA looks like JC has frontpaged the entire mess, above.

    I thought the Graham thing was a joke, and a pretty funny one at that. And then I clicked over to TPM and saw that it was real.

    Senator Butch-me-up (thanks Pierce) needs to get a grip . . . maybe on McCain?

    Jeez. I didn’t know that they were killing Americans in Ukraine. Or even breaking our car windows and toilet papering our houses. I can see how this is just like Benghazi.

    I could just imagine running into a Beauregard Butchmeup Graham dosed at a Dead show. OK, no I lied. I could not imagine that. Just the thought makes me wish I had several valium.

    Since more US embassy personnel were murdered during Bush, shouldn’t Lindsay Graham blame Bush for the Ukraine crisis? Hell, that is as relevant (or irrelevant as Benghazi). Hell, why isn’t Graham blaming Reagan for the Ukraine crisis due to Reagan pulling out of Lebanon…

    Sadly, despite having five teabaggers/glibertarians wanting to primary him, Senator Ben Ghazi is expected to coast to reelection, according to SC polls.

    If Sen. Butchmeup wants to fight Putin, he should challenge him to a bare-chested duel in the snow. Oh wait, you say he just wants other people to go and fight? As Molly Ivins so eloquently said: “Sheesh, what an asshole.”
