Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Speaking of republicans, is there a way for a political party to declare intellectual bankruptcy?

Insiders who complain to politico: please report to the white house office of shut the fuck up.

Jesus, Mary, & Joseph how is that election even close?

No offense, but this thread hasn’t been about you for quite a while.

Usually wrong but never in doubt

If you are still in the GOP, you are an extremist.

Too often we confuse noise with substance. too often we confuse setbacks with defeat.

The cruelty is the point; the law be damned.

Balloon Juice has never been a refuge for the linguistically delicate.

I’d try pessimism, but it probably wouldn’t work.

Schmidt just says fuck it, opens a tea shop.

Americans barely caring about Afghanistan is so last month.

Some judge needs to shut this circus down soon.

Hot air and ill-informed banter

… pundit janitors mopping up after the GOP

The next time the wall wtreet journal editorial board speaks the truth will be the first.

No one could have predicted…

Their freedom requires your slavery.

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

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

They’re not red states to be hated; they are voter suppression states to be fixed.

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

Only Democrats have agency, apparently.

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

Early Planning: NYC Meet-Up, Labor Day Weekend?

Got this from prolific Pacific-based commentor NotMax:

Very early feelers regarding a NYC meet-up sometime on Labor Day weekend.

Have a venue in mind but would help to know if Friday, Saturday or Sunday night works best for folks (holiday weekend). Personally partial to Sunday as it would probably offer a less crowded atmosphere.

Leave your notes / suggestions in the comments, or send me an email and I’ll forward it to NotMax.

    Wish I could, but my husband would divorce me if I said I wanted to stay in the city. We will be in the Poconos. Take lots of pics! And if anybody ends up in the Sullivan County/Pike County area, let me know. ETA. Are there any Juicers up here? I’d be surprised if there were not.

    I can’t do NYC, but I am going to be in DC in late September for a conference. Mr. Suzanne will be there, too. Would love to meet up if anyone is available.

    I certainly enjoyed going to the last DC meetup. Pick a date and I’m sure we can find a place.

    Lived in Pike County for quite a while, long ago. Population of the entire county back then was around 5,000.

    Best bargain ever was the P.O. box I had, for the whopping cost of $5 per year. Post office was in the living room of the postmistress’ house.

    Right back atcha. I enjoyed it as well.
