Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Incompetence, fear, or corruption? why not all three?

Republicans do not pay their debts.

In short, I come down firmly on all sides of the issue.

How can republicans represent us when they don’t trust women?

Schmidt just says fuck it, opens a tea shop.

“That’s what the insurrection act is for!”

… gradually, and then suddenly.

The words do not have to be perfect.

He seems like a smart guy, but JFC, what a dick!

Pessimism assures that nothing of any importance will change.

Republicans choose power over democracy, every day.

I see no possible difficulties whatsoever with this fool-proof plan.

Too often we hand the biggest microphones to the cynics and the critics who delight in declaring failure.

The most dangerous place for a black man in America is in a white man’s imagination.

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

The choice is between normal and crazy.

I desperately hope that, yet again, I am wrong.

Cole is on a roll !

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

Never entrust democracy to any process that requires Republicans to act in good faith.

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

The fundamental promise of conservatism all over the world is a return to an idealized past that never existed.

New McCarthy, same old McCarthyism.

Reality always lies in wait for … Democrats.

On The Road

by Alain Chamot (1971-2020)|  March 23, 20175:00 am| 12 Comments

This post is in: On The Road, Open Threads, Readership Capture

On the Road is a weekday feature spotlighting reader photo submissions.

From the exotic to the familiar, whether you’re traveling or in your own backyard, we would love to see the world through your eyes.

Submit Your Photos

Good Morning All,

This weekday feature is for Balloon Juicers who are on the road, travelling, etc. and wish to share notes, links, pictures, stories, etc. from their escapades. As the US mainland begins the end of the Earth day as we measure it, many of us rise to read about our friends and their transient locales.

So, please, speak up and share some of your adventures, observations, and sights as you explore, no matter where you are. By concentrating travel updates here, it’s easier for all to keep up-to-date on the adventures of our fellow Commentariat. And it makes finding some travel tips or ideas from 6 months ago so much easier to find…

Have at ’em, and have a safe day of travels!

 

Should you have any pictures (tasteful, relevant, etc….) you can email them to [email protected] or just use this nifty link to start an email: Start an Email to send a Picture to Post on Balloon Juice

    Apparently I was fat fingered and put the pix in tomorrow’s post. My bad, was rushed and clearly edited the wrong day’s post!

    @Alain the site fixer: Opps, I thought I sent you some pics. Then again your requirements include “tasteful”, and some were from the Nixon Library.

    I have to get my pictures together and send Alain a couple. I was in the Inland Empire last weekend. That’s the eastern part of the LA megalopolis, mostly Riverside County. I think that is a name made up by a real estate developer. I was there for an orienteering competition. held at a Girl Scout camp near Idyllwild, in the San Jacinto Mountains. I did some sightseeing, too, and went to Disneyland. The mountains were spectacular, if you like desert (I do.)

    I love Idyllwild.

    And love the palms to the pines highway, that takes you from Idyllwild to Palm Springs. Good drive.
