Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Even though I know this is a bad idea, I’m off to do it anyway!

“But what about the lurkers?”

We’ll be taking my thoughts and prayers to the ballot box.

FFS people, this was a good thing. take the win.

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

The media handbook says “controversial” is the most negative description that can be used for a Republican.

I didn’t have alien invasion on my 2023 BINGO card.

When we show up, we win.

“The defense has a certain level of trust in defendant that the government does not.”

A lot of Dems talk about what the media tells them to talk about. Not helpful.

Tick tock motherfuckers!

Yeah, with this crowd one never knows.

The gop couldn’t organize an orgy in a whorehouse with a fist full of 50s.

Fight for a just cause, love your fellow man, live a good life.

Republicans choose power over democracy, every day.

The cruelty is the point; the law be damned.

Wake up. Grow up. Get in the fight.

You can’t love your country only when you win.

After dobbs, women are no longer free.

An almost top 10,000 blog!

Republican also-rans: four mules fighting over a turnip.

Whoever he was, that guy was nuts.

Republican obstruction dressed up as bipartisanship. Again.

A democracy can’t function when people can’t distinguish facts from lies.

    Marta is there. She’s wonderful, but shouldn’t her futbol “one name” be snazzier?

    does asking what your favorite fubol team is at a job interview constitute an illegal religious question?

    Who wins? Who the fuck cares?

    I come here for trenchant discussion of significant current events & I find Womens World Cup “open threads” scurrying around like cockroaches in the kitchen when the light’s turned on.

    @Uncle Cosmo: I have been requested to do these posts. There are many people who enjoy them.

    I am not a fan of the NFL and have zero interest in it. I do not, however, troll the comments section of NFL posts on this blog. Perhaps you can find it in yourself to afford those of us who like this sport the same courtesy.

    I remind you that this is not your blog. By all means feel free to comment on other such subjects that may interest you, but don’t do the equivalent of coming in to someone’s house and shitting in the kitchen because you don’t like the food.

    @Steeplejack (phone): Okay, that’s not something about a Kardashian? The cynic in me thinks 1) A name from a supermarket tabloid and 2) a Romance language syllable with an accent mark.

    @raven: Thanks, raven. Let me just add that John Cole, an all around mensch and someone for whom I have boundless respect, suffers fools far less gladly than I do Uncle Cosmo.

    Though I’m not commenting on each one I too really appreciate them. Like @Randinho: said I’m not a fan of American football and still can respect that many others do.

    @Baud: You are too kind. I’m getting a little verklempt. Talk among yourselves. Here’s a topic: the offside rule: you are either offside or not offside; there is no onside. Discuss.

    Just wanted to chime in and say I really appreciate the threads, and the first 40 minutes of USA vs. Australia (which is all I was able to watch so far) was some really good soccer.

    I’m very excited about the rest of the tourny, and plan to make time to keep watching it so these are always helpful to remember a good match is on. Thanks to both JC and Randinho for that!

    I’m super late to the thread, but I have to say I love these too. I love getting to watch the matches in the same time zone.

    And the “late night” fox sports review is cracking me up…but also rather informative with all these former players. US/Sweden should be very…interesting.
