Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

We are builders in a constant struggle with destroyers. keep building.

If you can’t control your emotions, someone else will.

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

There are some who say that there are too many strawmen arguments on this blog.

A sufficient plurality of insane, greedy people can tank any democratic system ever devised, apparently.

The snowflake in chief appeared visibly frustrated when questioned by a reporter about egg prices.

’Where will you hide, Roberts, the laws all being flat?’

Wake up. Grow up. Get in the fight.

This chaos was totally avoidable.

“But what about the lurkers?”

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

Also, are you sure you want people to rate your comments?

When you’re a Republican, they let you do it.

They don’t have outfits that big. nor codpieces that small.

If you voted for Trump, you don’t get to speak about ethics, morals, or rule of law.

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

There are times when telling just part of the truth is effectively a lie.

Optimism opens the door to great things.

Usually wrong but never in doubt

Republicans cannot even be trusted with their own money.

This blog will pay for itself.

People are weird.

“In this country American means white. everybody else has to hyphenate.”

The desire to stay informed is directly at odds with the need to not be constantly enraged.

Former Congressman Bob Barr (R, GA) may be doing more to defend yourcivil liberties than anyone currently in Congress. Check out this op-ed on Minority Report and the Virginia Temperance Nazi’s Police:

In last year’s mega-hit movie “Minority Report,” starring Tom Cruise in a mid-21st-century sci-fi thriller, D.C. police identify persons who have not yet committed a crime, but who, based on premonition evidence are going to commit a crime, and then swoop in and arrest these pre-criminals before they can carry out their dastardly deeds.
A fine movie; I saw it and liked it. Well, it isn’t even 2054 (the year in which the movie is set), and already, Washington-area police
