Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

To the privileged, equality seems like oppression.

Is trump is trying to break black America over his knee? signs point to ‘yes’.

Republicans in disarray!

Republicans cannot even be trusted with their own money.

Shut up, hissy kitty!

We will not go back.

We’re watching the self-immolation of the leading world power on a level unprecedented in human history.

Republicans don’t lie to be believed, they lie to be repeated.

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

Consistently wrong since 2002

In my day, never was longer.

Never give a known liar the benefit of the doubt.

Washington Post Catch and Kill, not noticeably better than the Enquirer’s.

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

Thanks to your bullshit, we are now under siege.

Radicalized white males who support Trump are pitching a tent in the abyss.

They were going to turn on one another at some point. It was inevitable.

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

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

One lie, alone, tears the fabric of reality.

They spent the last eight months firing professionals and replacing them with ideologues.

The way to stop violence is to stop manufacturing the hatred that fuels it.

The party of Reagan has become the party of Putin.

Let there be snark.

60 Minute Hacks

The Instapundit’s description of the 60 Minutes piece on ballistic fingerprinting is 100% accurate. My response was much less polite, and much more straightforward, and it involved an f-word.

I usually love 60 Minutes, so it bothers me when they get a story this wrong- how the hell am I supposed to trust them on other issues?

    A LOT of people haven’t trusted them for many years; way too many slanted stories in pursuit of political posture.
