Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Republicans are the party of chaos and catastrophe.

Jack be nimble, jack be quick, hurry up and indict this prick.

Optimism opens the door to great things.

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

Trump should be leading, not lying.

A snarling mass of vitriolic jackals

Accused of treason; bitches about the ratings. I am in awe.

President Musk and Trump are both poorly raised, coddled 8 year old boys.

In after Baud. Damn.

Oppose, oppose, oppose. do not congratulate. this is not business as usual.

They punch you in the face and then start crying because their fist hurts.

This year has been the longest three days of putin’s life.

The republican caucus is covering themselves with something, and it is not glory.

The press swings at every pitch, we don’t have to.

The truth is, these are not very bright guys, and things got out of hand.

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

People really shouldn’t expect the government to help after they watched the GOP drown it in a bathtub.

One lie, alone, tears the fabric of reality.

If you cannot answer whether trump lost the 2020 election, you are unfit for office.

Trump’s cabinet: like a magic 8 ball that only gives wrong answers.

You are either for trump or for democracy. Pick one.

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

… riddled with inexplicable and elementary errors of law and fact

It may be funny to you motherfucker, but it’s not funny to me.

    Panama all the way. Still fuming over the CR-Mexico game.

    I guess that I, too, will be rubbing one out for Panama.

    was the Panamanian red card fairly well deserved?

    Now no one can say that the Mexicans are not being helped to the final. Horrible horrible officiating in this game. Corruption killing the game.

    Evidently CONCACAF wants a USA v Mexico playoff.

    Red card was borderline but probably legitimate, although Vela should have gotten one in the 5th for elbowing a Panamanian player. The handball call was bullshit, but Mexico is going through come hell or high water.

    Look at the ref’s Wikipedia entry. It was edited a minute ago: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mark_Geiger

    @Bill Murray: same story as with the CR game. A last minute penalty to give the Mexicans a win. Even the very pro mexican narration in Univision were horrified by what happened. They were calling on the Mexican player to lose the penalty on purpose for justice’s sake.

    @Randinho: lol.

    I guess we know why El Chapo broke out when he broke out.

    Yeah that penalty call was really terrible. Where was the bad call for the US, damn it? We didn’t deserve the win either but would have guaranteed better TV ratings.

    @Valdivia: Mexico only got to go to extra time with the penalty. If it goes to PKs I expect if Pineda makes a save for Panama he will get called for leaving his line early.

    July 22, 2015 at 11:26 pm

    Twitter tells me the game is actually Panama 1, the ref 1, Mexico 0

    @Bill Murray: yep, at this point I expect them to do another bad call for an extra penalty at the end so they don’t have to do the 5 penalty kicks.

    and there it is.

    They have locked Mark Geiger’s Wikipedia page now.

    The second PK was correctly called I think, but I’d be pretty embarrassed to call it after the first one.

    Well, that was a shitshow, right down to the fat Georgia Dome security goons escorting the referee off the pitch.

    Let’s see who’s refereeing the final. The Jamaican team knows that a single goal is not enough to win against a bullshit penalty and a bent ref.

    Check out the picture of the Panama team after the game. Their sign says Concacaf corrupt and thieves. Too right.
