Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

If you still can’t see these things even now, maybe politics isn’t your forte and you should stop writing about it.

Let me eat cake. The rest of you could stand to lose some weight, frankly.

GOP baffled that ‘we don’t care if you die’ is not a winning slogan.

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

Nothing worth doing is easy.

You come for women, you’re gonna get your ass kicked.

Teach a man to fish, and he’ll sit in a boat all day drinking beer.

When do we start airlifting the women and children out of Texas?

You don’t get to peddle hatred on saturday and offer condolences on sunday.

Wow, I can’t imagine what it was like to comment in morse code.

Every one of the “Roberts Six” lied to get on the court.

Give the craziest people you know everything they want and hope they don’t ask for more? Great plan.

An unpunished coup is a training exercise.

The frogs are rarely mistaken.

The republican speaker is a slippery little devil.

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

Good lord, these people are nuts.

Our job is not to persuade republicans but to defeat them.

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

‘Museums aren’t America’s attic for its racist shit.’

Yeah, with this crowd one never knows.

Bad news for Ron DeSantis is great news for America.

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

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

Late Night Open Thread: Is It Wrong to Pray for A Meteor Strike?

Social notes from the Washington Post:

Former Florida governor Jeb Bush will get top billing when he and other potential 2016 presidential candidates join billionaire casino mogul Sheldon Adelson for an exclusive Republican gathering next week in Las Vegas.

Bush, who is quietly exploring a run for the White House, will be the featured speaker at an exclusive VIP dinner on Thursday hosted by Adelson and his wife, Miriam, at his company’s private airplane hangar at Las Vegas Macarran International Airport, according to a draft itinerary obtained by The Washington Post. The Adelsons’ dinner for Bush will kick off the Republican Jewish Coalition’s four-day spring leadership meeting, during which politicians and major GOP donors will mingle at golf and poker tournaments, as well as in political strategy sessions.

New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker and former U.N. ambassador John Bolton will address the group during its meeting on Saturday morning, while Ohio Gov. John Kasich is to speak at a luncheon that day. The gathering is being held at the Venetian Resort and Hotel, a glamorous property built by Las Vegas Sands Corp., the casino and hospitality company that Adelson runs….

At next week’s gathering, former vice president Dick Cheney will address the gala dinner on Saturday evening, where he will be introduced by Rep. Billy Long (R-Mo.). Cheney will also participate in a private discussion and photo opportunity session that afternoon with RJC’s leaders, as will Walker and Kasich…

Rep. Cory Gardner, another GOP star, who recently announced he would challenge Sen. Mark Udall (D) in Colorado this year, will moderate a breakfast session on Sunday titled, “Debating the Lessons of 2012 and the Current Path Forward for the GOP.” And Ari Fleischer, a former White House press secretary under President George W. Bush, will lead a strategy workshop on “Talking the Talk – How to Sell our Ideas to Impact and Influence Others.”

Okay, if a meteor is too much to ask, how about a norovirus epidemic?

    With the GOP, “there’s no need to change any of our policies, we just need better marketing” is always popular. I guess no one ever went broke charging to tell people what they want to hear.

    The Teabaggers will vote for Jeb with frothing zeal precisely because GWB proved everything they believe in is garbage by failing utterly. GWB was publicly considered a pathetic joke president by the end of his term, and they still feel humiliated. Then, even worse, a black man proved to be way more competent. If they get the chance, voting for Jeb will make them feel like they’re giving all of us a middle finger for being right when they were wrong.

    But it’s kinda moot. Everyone’s just sucking up to Adelson because he’s an obvious mark who wants to be conned out of millions of dollars.

    @Hill Dweller:
    The Beltway Press is front and center in feeling humiliated by GWB’s failure. He was, truly, absolutely everything they believe in.

    @Redshift:
    They are their policies. They’re arrogant, self-righteous assholes who want everyone but themselves to fuck off and die. Their policies are all based on that. Damn it, Reagan made the country believe being an asshole was mature and responsible and strong. Why can’t they?

    This makes a sort of intuitive sense.

    On the other hand, I recall there was some sort of “poll” about a month ago where these people anointed Cruz and Paul, leaving the likes of Ayotte, Bush, and Christie in last place.

    It makes a difference if he’s just some guy on a list or an actual candidate. The former gets a vague sense of avoiding humiliation. The more they’re forced to think about him, the more their anger over being wrong will push them to support him. Cleek’s Law kicks in. You can see this in action in the Village.

    Sure, I think it’s axiomatic that they will support the Republican candidate over the Democrat, no matter how they may have treated that Republican during the primaries.

    Speaking of which … last time around in the primaries, there was a long parade of not-Romneys before the “Tea Party” folks had to bite their tongues and hold their noses. Do you think there will be a long parade of not-Bushes this time? It could be as entertaining as it was in 2012.

    Now he has pulled all stops in an effort to defeat online poker. He uses the morality line and the so called fact that collusion ONLY happens online with poker which is laughable. His real intent is to protect his casino. Oh and he already offers online sports gambling in them.

    Lindsey Graham will be submitting a bill soon to restore the wire act. I doubt it will get anywhere as it could potentially affect lotteries as well.

    @NobodySpecial:

    I love the way a ‘current path forward’ requires a third Presidential candidate from the same family in 25 years.

    Bobby Kennedy was — and still is — my hero. Nonetheless, I now think that any kind of “dynasty” in Presidential politics is a bad idea — and the Bush dynasty should just die nasty, already.

    @Uncle Cosmo:

    I say we ramp up the NASA asteroid-exploration budget sufficiently that in a few short years we can stop praying for meteor strikes & start arranging for meteor strikes…

    Where do I sign up?

    Okay, if a meteor is too much to ask, how about a norovirus epidemic?

    Won’t work, those guys are already used to shitting out their mouths – professionally.

    @Biff Longbotham:

    Thanks. But if I weren’t such a half-wit, I would have instead written something like “Which they contracted at their most recent VFW convention, getting together with their old unit(s).”

    Oh well, brain cells seem to be disappearing faster every day.
